The Peninsula Peach
'rOD-

Estimates of the number OF baskets of
peaches now on the trees and to be
marketed, differ widely, those persons
engaged in eVapOrating assuming the
position of the we'll known Wall street
animals-Bears, and the commission
merchants, the Bulls. The Bears in
order to buy cheap, must invent and
circulate ali sorts of rumors, talk mil
lions of baskets, glutted markets and
high freights, while the Bulls cndeaVOr
to impress the growers with the idea of
good prices and reduced figures for cs-
timated numbers of baskets to 90 to
the market. and the word glut is never
once mentioned Then the condition
Of the weather during the picking
season, is the unknown quantity in
the calculation. If the dry weather
should continue until peach picking
fairly begins, the quantity will be
largely diminished. Then again should
August be very wet month, thousands
of baskets may go to the ground and
there left to decay, or rot on their way
to market. The grower has to run the
chances of all these possibilities. II
none of these however occur the follow
ing railroad estimates may be as accu-
rate as any other:
New Castle county, from KirkwOOd
to Greenspring, both inclusive, $50, ,O0C
/ baskets.
| Kent county, from Clayton to Har.
rington, 100000 baskets.
Sussex county, from Pennington tC
Delmar, 100000.
Queen Anne's county, Md, including
a portion of Kent county, and covered
by Queen Anne's and Kent railroad
275,000 baskets.
Kent county, Md, on the line of thu
Kent County Railroad, 467, 900 baskets
Caroline and Ta,5ot counties, Md.
along the line of the Delaware ant
Chesapeake Railroad, $4,000 baskets
Lower end OF Caroline county. coy
cred by Dorchester and Delaware Rail
road, 10000 baskets.

counties, along the Eastern Shor
Railroad, 81 600 baskets.

COMMENT.

The New York and New England
Railroad is under ;he patronage of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and
the latter can make Il through rate for
peaches to Boston the same as for ber-
ries, and the New York and New Eng
land Railroad would be glad to proratc
with that company. 1t is merely
subteriuge to retain the arbitrary dis
elimination to say. " the New England
lines positively refuse to reduce through
rates on peaches from jersey City"
The true inWardness of the matter is
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
have made contract with the Adams
Express Company at high rate to do
n certain service that they ought to do
themselves AZ lower rate, and without
any regard whatever to the interest of
their customers.
If there was Il competing line to
Boston the freight would be about half
what it now is. Let us see how it
works where there is competition. From
Delmar or any station above, car load
of peaches can be sent to Chicago, dis
tance Ofnearly 1000 miles for S2l0, while
from Clayton station to Boston. u dis
tanCC less than 400 miles. 500 is
charged. Dilierential rates are most
important consideration with the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company, when they
have sharp competition and is being
badly squeezed bv rival roads, but in
this case the difIcrPntial rate theory is
out of the question altogether.
The theory that Il transportation
company can control the market price
of any commodity by an increase or
decrease of the freight charges is too
fallacious and absurd for one word of
comment. If however, there are any
peach growers so stupid as to adhere to
such fallacy and tlatter themselves
that they can have the exclq qsive CON
troll of Boston market for their choice
fruit, study of the problem of sup
ply and demand might teach them II
wholesome lesson.
Nothing demonstrates the ahsurdjty
of all such theories however, as cOmpe-
tition, and that is what is need from
the Peninsula TO both New York and
Boston.

The Camden Camp.

Twenty years 9g0 and more the cry
of " hO! for Camden camp was an
annual occurrence at this season of
the year, and it was answered we
might say by hundreds. Our leading
Methodists annually pitched their
tents on the ground regarded as
sacred from its hallOwed associations,
and the season was looked forward to
with pleasant anticipatiOns and mem
ory would revive its incidents months
after the season had passed. Now
there is not one to do it reverence /.
not b6oQqse it is Camden camp ground
or that the people vino repair there are
not Just as pleasant to associate with
as i'm "days'of yore," but because they
stand in changed relation. Those
who wabt simple recreation and pleas
ure, find it at the Watering places with
DO five O'Clock bell to dfsturb their
morning slumbers, and those who went
sineaFely for the religious feast, end it
absolutely dWarfed by the epcrOach-
ments of the world. The simple habits
and selfdenial of those who guarded
the Altar of sacrifice are met with now
as tho few, instead of formerly rs
the multitude, The people of the inn
mediate neighboFhood still cling to
the place under all the varying oircnm'
stances, with devotion that challenges
admiration. The meeting commen-

SIGNIFICANCE is given to the meeting
Of the Republican State Convention at
Dover, tomorrow, from the fact that it
takes the initiative in unfurling the
campaign flag, by the nomination of
candidates for Governor and Represen-
tative in Congress. No name has been
mentioned prominently for the last
place, while for the first place, the
choice is conceded to Sussex and that
county is divided between two gentle
men, Benz. F. FOOkg and Albert Curry.
TEG FQPuIm feeling seems TO be for the
first, Dat tAc last. while having many
friends was backed blythe State Central
Committee, thus giving him a PFepon-
derating advantage. Though Mr.. FO0ks
declared the middle of last week his
purpose of declining the use of his
name before the Convention, majori-
ty of the delegates of Sussex county
were elected in his interest. His de-
eleasion practically leaves the field
open to Mr.. Curry, against whom as a
man, we hear no objections.
The second, and now the most diff
cult thing since the candidate is re
duced to one, is, the selection of thu
State Central Committee. Shall it b.
selected by choice of the counties, o.
appointed by the Chairman of the Con
Gention2 The men who have giyel
potency and force to anticipated snc
cess say the latter, because to be effec
tual, it must be unit in mind an,

a Cold RlOOded Murder
az Morris Station.

The country around was shocked by
the news of a cold bloodcd murder at
Morris Station on the Queen Anne's
Road, but a short distance beyond the
MARYLAND line and the Forest of Black
bird Hundred where so many foul
deeds have been done. The parties
were well known here, the victim and
her husband being ut one time resi-
dents of this town, eight or nine years
ago. The news rs condensed from the
EreTy EreHiRg account is as follows:
= The woman who was murdered was
Mrs. Emily Turner, wife of store
keeper of that place. Joseph Morris
went to the store on Thursday after
noon in the absence of Mr.. Turner and
stole several small articles. The theft
was noticed by Ida Turner, Il 16-year
old daughter, and she informed her
mother who directed her to go to
Morris house and demand the return
of the articles. Morris refused to give
them up. Shortly afterwards he again
appeared at Turner's house armed with
q double -barrelled shot gun and aimed
il at Mrs, Turner. Ida struck the
weapon down and u scrimmage ensued,
in the course of which Morris dropped
the gun to the floor. Ida seized it, re-
moved the caps and poured water into
the nipples. Morris, who seemed to
have suddenly abandoned his hostile
/ ideas. remained a short time in the
/ house and engaged in conversation
| He soon left, however, and retuned to
his home near by. About o'clock he
again appeared at the store, carrying
/ his gun over his shoulder Mrs. Turner
/ was behind the counter waiting on
John RittenhOuse. After some remarks
Morris threw his gun to his shoulder
and aiming it at Mrs. Turner pulled
the trigger. The weapon was dis
! charged and the contents of the barrel
-sbQJ and one bullet-lodged in the
wOman's left breast, iniliGting terrible
wound and causing instantaneous
death. Morris then retreated, keeping
his gun leyelled. Ida Turner when
she heard the shot, ran into the store
and saw her mother lying in large
pool of blood, She immediately pro-
cured o revolver aud dashed after Tur-
neP. She fired one shot at him, which
missed its mark, and she was then per-
suaded to abandon the pursuit. Morris
went TO his house, told his father that
he had accidentally shot Mrs. THrner
and shortly afterwards disappeared
and has not since been seen, although
posse headed by Constable Jacoby is
securing the heighboring country. a
coroneris jury was summoned and
rendered verdict of wilful and malt
cious murder Gt the hands of Morris.
The motive for the murder is not
definitely known, but the probability
is that it was the result Of quarrel
between tke murderer and his victim,
who it is asserted have been on terms
of criminal intimacy for several years.
A number of people believe that Nor
pis contemplated the murder of the
whole family, but there Is no proof OF
such intent. Morris is worthless
character, aged about SO years, and has
been in jail several times for various
Giseacss. His victim was about the
same age and her reputation was not
above suspicion. F"'h -. +

THE LIQUOR QUESTION IN OHIO AND (
INDIANA.-The Democrats of Ohio and
Indiana are confronted with a danger
Gus point on the liquor question. The
Republicans have taken firm stand
against free rum and in favor of quiet
Sunday, but in the Ohio Democratic
State Convention held last week the fol
lowing was adopted "The Democratic
party adheres to the doctrine Of the
largest liberty consistent with the pub
he welfare, and is opposed to lcgisla
tion merely sumptuary" As there is
no limit to the definitions of public
welfare, or legislation merely sump-
tuary," it is beyond human power to
know what is meant by it. In Indiana
they are more puzzled than in Ohio.
The leading question there is Submis-
sion of prOhibitOry clause in the CON
stltution, to vote of the people
English, Hendricks. Voorhees,. Melon
aid and other Democratic lights who
live i'll the cities are opposed to the
Democratic party when it meets adopt
ing resolution submitting the quc,-
ton To II vote. while in the country the
Democrats have already nominated
delegates to the State Convention and
candidates for the Legislature and in
structcd them to vote for submission to
vote of the people. Altogether it is
Il pretty little fight for the German
vote.

ARABI BEY, Notwithstanding the dis
astrOus result at Alexandria and defeat
since in two skirmishes with the
English troops, and the dismissal
by the Khedive, still remains re-
bellious at the head of an army of
5000 men. His purpose seems to
be to stir up a religious war of the
Mahometans against the Christians,
and many of the latter have been mur-
dered. France has united with Eng
land and with a superior force and
guns, Arab must soon succumb.
