the REPUBLICAN gives timely warning
that unless some of the scandalously
short and skinny half,peck measures
are changed for measures of the correct

will be EXPOSED. There are half and

During the last few weeks that the
Democracy were in power the City
Council used $4,000 of the Board Of
Education loan, sc, 900 that was granted
as an extraordinary appropriation te
the Water Department, and on last
Friday night the City Auditor reported
an overdraft of nearly $4,000 on the
Union National Bank. 1t will be seen
that the new city government starts in
with floating debt of nearly $4,000,
which must shortly be repaid. The
Board of Education will need their
money before long to pay the balance
on the new school houses, and the &c..
600 belonging to the Water Department
should never have been used for any
other purpose than that for which it
was originally designed, as there are
numbers of new houses that are not
tenantable for the want of water. This
money will have to be repaid out of the
taxes for the ensuing year, and as the
old Council made no provision for it, it
will levolve upon the new. We men.
ton this matter as it is we'll for the
people to understand the condition in
which the advocates of reform and
economy left the city's finances.

In COLONEL Robie the Republican.

Governor who will safely pull them
through at the State election. The
Convention that nominated him on
Tuesday was united and enthusiastic.
The practical subsistence of the Green
back craze has left the Republicans in
a much better condition than in former
campaigns. One of the marked fea.
lures of the Convention was the pres.
ence of quite number of persons who
had not acted with the party for some
years nast but who are now thoroughly
disgusted with both the Democratic

THE City Council at its meeting to-
night should not fail to order the pub
lication of financial exhibit Of the
actual condition of the finances of the
city at the commen cement of Republi.
can supremacy. There is not the leas,
doubt that there is large floating debt
created by some means though the law
expressly preciuded the borrowing Of
money on temporary notes or in any
other manner. The estimates of the
floating debt range from 1000 to $780,
900. The people want to know how
much it is, and it is no more than right
and proper that they should know
where the money came from that has
been spent and what it was spent for.
4 month from now will not suit SO we'll
for the exhibit as at the present time.
Let it be done Immediately.

AN EXTRAORDINARY story comes to
us of famine in Virginia, where we
were always led to believe there was
full and plenty. The scene of the suf.
fering is said to be in the extreme South.
ern section of the State, Patrick Coun-
ty, in mountainous region. Last year
the corn crop failed like it did in many
other places, and corn being the chief
dependence of the people, of course suf.
fering ensued. The scarcity of corn
continuing, it has acted like the fail
ure of the potato crop in Ireland. Five
thousand people are reported to bt
starving, which is just about half the
people of the County. The people live
in q remote county and that is said tc
be the reason their wants are not
known. The population of the county
is almost wholly American. At the
last census there were only three per-
sons of foreign birth.

The situation in Egypt seems to be
growing worse and worse. The latest
dispatches show that the spirit OF in.
surrection is passing far beyond the
control of even the men who have been
mainly responsible for bringing about
the present deplorable condition Of af.
fairs, and at any moment an uprising
may occur which will result in a
general massacre of the European resi-.
dents. In this emergency a disposition
is apparent to trust. Turkey with the
task of restoring order, and this would
undoubtedly be the quickest and easiest
way out of the trouble. If that plan
should be adopted, Turkey will once
more be a gamer from that mutual
jealousy of the European powers by
which in the case of the military occu.
patton of Egypt, England and France

THE MANIFEST pre,judgnent of the
case of the State against John Croney,
by Chief Justice ComeRys, day before
yesterday is enough to alarm the friends
of the prisoner. In the argument before
the court on the application of counsel
for the defence, for postponement.t the
chief Justice is represented as saying
that "where crime of this magnitude
had been committed the punishment
should be swift aud sure" In another
paper he is represented rs saying that
she believed il q swift and high gal
lows" We are not prepared to say
that the latter remark is correct, but it
is not denied that the first credited to
him is the substance of what he did
say. The chief Justice may have cause
for deep feeling in this matter, but IL
he has Oh the bench is not the place to
show it. We believe the Chief Justice
is a gentleman of too high sense Of
honor to preside at the trial of Croney
if be actually used the expressions at
tributed to him. If he should preside
his decisions would have no weight
and if Croney is convicted public opin
ion will demand a new trial.

last night by electing David H. Coyle,

the fact that Mr.. Coyle is as eminently

v.u vva,, .ud ,ne Pro.rdous,

Senator Van Wyck il much amused
over the stories constantly printed that
he is at war with the President and in
tends to act with the Democrats on
matters where the administration 10
con esraed. He says that his relations
with the President are Of the most
friendly character, and that there ia no
more probability of his acting with the
Democrats than the administration it
self. Nothing has occurred to cause
him to change the convictions of life
time or desert the party which has hon-
ored him with seats in both branches
Of Congress during the past fifteen
years. In speaking about the election
of Senator in Nebraska to succeed Mr..
Saunders, he says some person
will be selected who Is not ident-
fed with or controlled by the
railroad interests, but he will be a
straigbtCut Republican and not DEM
crat. The Republicans Of Nebraska
are divided on the question of railroad
moaopolies, but outside of this they are
united and will stand by the party.
The hopes of the Democrats to capture
a Senator in Nebraska will come to
naught.

cy of q number of Democrats in the

frauds, SO long as the way is left open
for Republicans to show up Democratic
frauds. This quo Warranto proceeding

IwaJctaFy ReforEn.

Amongst thelmany constitutional re-
forms needed in Delaware, Done are
needed more than RADICAL reform of the
Judiciary. The life tenure of office for
the Judges of our courts is an old En-
glish custom, become obsolete and not,
we believe, tolerated in any OF the
States of the Union but Delaware.
Why 1t is tolerated here no sufficiently
good reason can be given. 1t smacFs
too much Of the principle of the divine
right to rule to be popular in . RspGb-
lican government. The principle OF
"once Judge forever judge" is abb
horeut to republican ideas and political
liberty. The people will always revere
tie office of Judge and respect the In
cumbent, but they will not in this en-
llghtened age o. reason and intelligence
entertain the old feudal idea that be-
cause a man is judge once he should
remain Judge all his life, or as long a.
he properly demeans himself or until
removed by impeachment. But there
are other cogent reasons why the judi
ciary should be reformed by constitu-
tional enactments. The present system
did well enough 80 tar as the transac-
ton of business was concerned, VIII
the population of the State was small
and about equal iu each County. Even
now the labors of the court are not on
erous in KEN and Sussex Counties. In
New Castle, which contains nearly
three tifths Of the population of the
State, more courts and more judges are
needed.
The greatest objection to the present
effete judicial system, is the constitution
of the court of appeals. The Chief jus
tice of the Court renders decision from
which an appeal is taken, but that ap-
peal comes before the Chief Justice and
oyher Judges, who probably concurred
IN JuS ueClbLOu' AHo ohiy "A1AoiOH U"
the court of appeals is the Chancellor of
the State, and if the'judges were unani-
nous, the Chancellor, if he disssnts, is
but one against four. In this view OF
the case appeals are useless. That
there should be court of errors and
appeals will not be denied, but we might |
better have no appeal than TO appeal
from Chief Justice Comegys of the Su- |
perior Court, to Chief Justice Comegys
of the Court of Appeals. We hope the
Legislature will not adjourn when 1t
meets until this need Of the State and
the people Is provided for by constitu-
tion al provisions.

GAavarnMr NC nmerY's Action.

IfGuvernor McEuery had adhered to
his announced ipteAtion mot 10 give
Senator Kellogg bis certificate of cleo
tion as a mem Der Of Congress from the
Third Louisiana District, he would
have been proceeded against under the
United States statutes which provide
that any local, municipal or State Off
cial who withhO,ds, neglects, or refu-
ses to make and return certificates of
election of such members az may he
chosen at the election az provided by
law, shall be punished bv Rne of not
more than one thousand dollars or by
Imprisonment not more than one year,
or both. 1t is thought here by Repub-
lican leaders that the knowledge Of
this law by Governor McEnery caused
him to torgQ what pleasure he, might
otherwise have had in withholding the
certificate from Senator Kellogg.
