Democratic justice has just beer
illustrated in the distribution of the
Srhoo appropriation. The former ap
preparation was S37.mD, five sixths OF
which came from New Castle County
in th. way of license revenues and
taxes. Kent and SUSSEX Counties
raised the balance 81 900. This fund
divided equally between the three
counties ~ it has been in the past gives
New Castle County $ll, 400; Kent,
81 $3.50 and Sussex Sl3.961. Kent 90
| $43I more than New Castle and Suisse,
=, j6I more. In other words the par
otthr State that paid r. 900 revenue,
got 81, 800, and the par, of the Stat,
that paid $4,000 got sll. 400
An additional appropriation Of 50,
600 has just been made by the Leg,la
tlre. The Representatives from Kent
and Sussex blushng with shame at the
injustice done to New Castle County,
made more liberal allowance, bu,
| how liberal let uS see? Add the S25,.
o00 extra appropriation to the old orlgi
nal appropriation makes So 900. OF this
amount, New Castle County is to &c
S2l 800 Kent, Sl9,3 and Sussex, 81 i,
500. That is to say New Castle thai
raises 81 $3.50 OF the whole amount, vii
get 81, 800 back again to support hrI
school, and Kent ard SUSSEX which
raised so, 1888 Of the whole amount will
get $40, 800. New Castle gets $50, lGt
less than what she paid and Kent and
Sussex will get $50, Al more than what
they paid. This must be what Mr..
Bayard means by his definition Of villa,
he calls the beauties of local self GOV.
eminent that is the glorious priucipl.
which gives Democratic Kent and Sus.
sex a chance to pluck and fitch money
from Republican New Castle.

Senator Bayard made "a speech at a
Democratic banquet last night given by
"A political club in Chicago. As might
have leen expected local self govern
mant" was the topic of his speech and
as usual he took strong ground against
Capitalization. He must have had pill
Jagged Wilmington in view when he
said
Home rule or local self-government
is right and a necessity of American
citizens and the intent and meaning OF
the written Constitution of the Union. v
His heart must have been touched
with sympathy and pity for his own
native city dismantled and denied self
government when he said.
"The safety of our popular institu-
tionS demands the decentralization and
distribution OF power and its exercise
for the local self government by those
whose daily lives and interests are to be
affected BY it. y

Mr. Bayard's native city of the princi-
pies of local self-govrrnment After
all there may be- some mistake in regard
to Mr. Bayard'S self local government
principles. He may possibly mean that
it does not apply to cities like Will
mingtOu. He may mean that it ap
plies to the Legislature, to Broad Creek
and Little Creek Hundreds and every
place where large Democratic MAORI
ties prevail He certainly cannot mean
Wilmington, or he would hold Will

of the heads, is bound to respect

MEssRs. EDITORS That building
inspector for the city of Wilmington is
needed no reasonable man will deny.
That he should be paid a salary of
81 900 per year would also be agreed to,
and that in no case should the gentle
man be feed. But, Messrs. editors, the
ordinance passed by City Council April
9TH meets with deep and determined
antagonism, because of its injustice and
want OF equity it imposes burden of
oppression that few will bear by many
il is considered rohl"ry, with the APP
Eearance of law, and would not be sus-
tanned in legal test Although heavy
penalties are affixed for its violation,
none of them could be enforced, as such

nance, and exp ct tito hecomea law. We
believe and hope that Council is capable
Of something better than this. Then
let the matter be re-considered at once,
and good and equitable law passed
that will meet the approval Of all good
citizens
This ordinance declares it any alter
alton is made in a hnilding costing less
than $1,000, the inspector has to be
given ten days notice thereof, and that
he must he laid five dollars, whereas
very often Su h alteration may not cost
over two dollars, and to pay the In
spector i've dollars seems such farce
as to be ridiculous; then again, poor
worker may, by much self-deuial and
economy, succeed in saving enough to
build himself little home hut 10 the
Inspector steps upon the scene, and il

often eight dollars is something to a

The Great shoshonc waterfall.

Two Omaha capitalists and banker
of Butte, Montana, have recently en-
barked in an enterprise-the purchase
OF the Big Shoshone waterfall, in Idaho.
Until six months ago the property was
not ''in sight," and its existence was
only known through the report of an
occasional hunter, who. reaching the
edge of the basin which surrounds the
approach to the falls, peered at them
curiously at the distance Of three-quar-
ters Of mile, and gained only an I'M
satisfactory impression Of a vast body
of water, much spray and more roar.
From the edge Of this basin there was
no sure footing to nearer point OF
view. Blasting and picking have cut a
path through the rocky sides to the
waters edge, and the falls can now be
viewed as easily as can those of Niaga-
ra. The Snake River. which forms the
falls, is at this point deep stream.
running for twenty-five miles through
lava rocks hundreds of feet in height.
At the falls. which are 100 feet wide,
and have a descent of 2l0 feet, the
rocks loom up grandly from 500 to !. 900
feet in height. Their brown walls are
utterly bare. and, with the exception
of grassy plot Of a few acres, with
cool spring and a shady grove, which
border the falls, the scene is one Of
utter desolation. For miles beyond the
lava beds stretch away, with only the
sagebrush aud cactus to relieve their
barren waste. Three miles above are
the Twin falls, with a descent OF $50
feet, which are cloven by huge rock.
The river is broad and deep between
the Twin Falls and the Big Shoshone.
and a boat.ride along this stretch is
romautically exciting, but not necessa.
rily dangerous. Perpendicular walls
rise on either side, and "halloo" or q
'cornet peal echoes aud rebounds dozen
times. Tourists who have visited the
Shoshone Falls declare them wonder
and do not hesitate to draw a favorable
comparison with Nisgara. the decent OF
whose waters it exceeds some 30 feet.

In conipiisnce with our duty rs public
Journalist we are called upon to announce
the death of this worthy and respected
citizen at his own hands, which occurred
In Iris city yesterday morning about 6
o'clock. Mr.. Cunning waspn his 74th year,
and had been in feeble and declining
health for several months. The circum-
stances indicate that at the time he COM
mitted the rash act that he was labOring
under a fit of mental alteration and I'M
usual depression, incident to his low state
of health. lie rose early Wednesday
morning and without having much to say
to any one, temporarily escaped the atten-
ton of the members of his family, and
when searched came to be made, was
found locked in an unoccupied room, life
extinct, and razor, with which he had
destroyed himself, still in his grasp.
The deceased twas native of Devon
shire, England, where he was born in 1909.
He had long been a citizen of Brookhaven,
and was held in high esteem by all who
knew him.
In common with the whole community,
we tender his bereaved family and rela-
tives our sincere sympathy.

Anniversary Exercises Of the
". N. L.. Association.

According to announcement, the first
Anniversary celebration of the Young
Mems Literary Association came off at
Heuck's Hall on last Friday evening at 8
o'clock. A large audience composed of the
intelligence, beauty and chivalry of
Brookhaven, was present, and we believe
we hazard nothing in saying everyone
went away satisfied with the evenings en-
tortainment.
In due time Mr.. viii McGrath, the her
aid on the occasion, introduced DIR. J. o.
Frilick, Anniversarian. His address was
partly humorous, spirited and appropriate,
aud won good round of applause at the
close from his Interested listeners.
The Anniversary Address was followed
by
AN ANIMATED DEBATE
on this subject: "Resolved, That we de-
rive more pleasure from hope than from
memory"
The Affirmative was represented by
Messrs. A. Lewenthal, Jr., and Mr.. Louis
Thurner, and the negative by Messrs. I.
J. S. McGfath and w. r. Spencer. Each
speaker was allowed 20 minutes and the
affirmative rejoinder of 10. Three sober,
wise looking judges sat upon the rostrum
in the persons of Revs. ii. +. Johnson, j..
R. Parish and DIR. j. w. Bennett. The
contest was close, the points well argued,
and all of the speakers acquitted them
selves well. 1t was evident from each
speech that the subject had been well
studied. Mr.. Lewenthals rejOinder was
particularly fluent, earnest and logical.
When the judges made up their decision,
one stood for the negative and two for the
irmative-Lewenthal and Thurner had
won-and the applause of the audience
proved that majority of them endorsed
the decision.
Music, sweet music was discoursed during
the evening by Messrs. Chas. Penn, on the
cornet, C. Cunning, on the flute, and Ben.
Larkin, H. P. Mounger and DIR. J. o. Fril-
lex on the first, second and base viol re.
spectiyely. Nice ice-cream and cake were
furnished by the Ladies' Aid Society near
the entrance of the Hall, the young ladies
looked their prettiest and smiled theii
sweetest, and the evening passed away in
manner most lovely.
Another entertainment of the kind
would be appreciated, gentlemen, even
though it be not an anniversary.

a DeIustou.

Since our first issue we have been send
ing THE LEADER to a number of persons
who never ordered It and whom we have
never met, but who were recommended TO
us as intelligent. responsible gentle
men who would want the paper, take it
from the Office, read aud pay for it, That
there might be no Misunderstanding on the
part of those thus receiving the paper, we
gave full and conspicuous notice more than
two months ago that all who did not mott
fy us to stop the paper, but continued to
take it from the postoffice after a certain
date, would be considered subscribers and
expected to pay accordingly. Notwith-
standing this, however, there still seems
to be misapprehension on the part of some,
as the following specimen card from one of
these gentlemen who has been receiving
the paper regularly erery tceek since Febu-
airy, proves:
Editor Brookhaven Lead r:
DEAR SIR-Please discontinue THE
LEADER. / like your paper, but am not
prepared to take il for the present. Thanks
for complimentary copies.
Yours truly,
Now we wish to say right here, that if
there are any other gentleman in this or
adjoining counties, who are laboring under
the above sweet, but to us expensive, de-
fusion, we hope they will notify us at once
and we will acknowledge our gratitude in
a becoming manner, throw in fine oil
painting of the editor who lives on black
berries, persimmons and roots, and, with
their permission, call the account square,
We like to be complimentary-we would
rather compliment man any day than
otherwise-but, seriously, we cannot at
ford to scatter compliments around broad
cast over three or four counties at the
price of $500 piece; so all such person,
will see the Importance to us of complying
with our request.
We would say further, that where the
persons described wish the paper continued
(and we hope they all do), and are now
prepared to pay for it, we would esteem it
great favor for them to do so.
