A chambermaid at the Asquam house, Hol-
derness, N. H., made bold to ask John G..
Whittier, who is staying there, for his auto
graph. He complied with the request, sign
ing his name after the following impIomptu
lines:
'Ihe truth the English poet saw
Two centuries back is thine

Makes room and action fine;
And III thy quiet ministry

Whittier did not quote correctly Old George
Herbert. in his poem, "The Elixir" says
"a servant. with this clause,

VINO sweeps room as for thy laws
Makes that and the action hne."

WILMINGTON, FRIDAY, APRIL l;
No Need of aaste.

We hope the Levy Court will not be too
hasty in regard to the construction of new
bridge over the Christiana at Market street,
and will at least wait until the financial
condition of the county is definitely ascer-
tanned before commencing this important
and costly undertaking.
No one will deny that new bridge at
Market street would be 4 very desirable i'm
provement, but that it is actually necessary
this year we are not prepared to admit. We
are confident that the county can i'll afford
the expense of such an undertaking at this
time, and no matter how pleasant or con
venient it might be to have splendid iron
bridge in place of the present wooden struc-
ture, the Levy Court has no right to
increase the burden OF taxation unless
demanded by the most pressing necessity,
No doIbt the bridge could be, at rea-
sonable cost, repaired in a manner that
would enable it to do good service for two
or three years longer. This would be a
desirable plan, as by that time the new
AImshouse would be finished, and the
people given an opportunity to look
squarely and intelligently at the final
cial condition of the county, and know just
what additional burden the construction OF
thu new bridge would impose upon them.
The building of this bridge during the
coming year would prove very profitable
operation for some OF the members of the
Levy Court, whose terms of office have
nearly expired, but this fact does not justify
the increase of our county expenses for a
public improvement that can very readily
be dispensed with for few more years.

A Device For Delay .
rrntn, Gfs,nal

Government is organized to preserve
society, not destroy it, and the State has no
more right to license the drink evil, than II
has to license the murder evil, or the
adultery evil. 1t is the province Of govern
ment to prevent and destroy vice, not to reg
ulate or protect it. A high license system
no doubt presents some desirable features
as contrastcd with a merely nominal tax,
but were its advantages an hundred fold
greater than its most ardent advocate can
claim, those benefits would be dearly bought
il high license scheme should displace Pro-
hibition in the public thought even for u
day. 1t is apparent that this great issue is
about to decide the fate OF one
or both OF the existing political
parties. The leaders of at least
one of these parties are at last awake to this
fact 1t is apparent to these men, in some
States at least, that great moral issue has
fastened itself on the convictions of the
people, an issue that sinks mere party in
terest out of sight, and that unless one OF
the parties expouse this cause the people
will repUdate them both. Admonished by
the foregoing shadows of coming events
these men are more ready now to hear the
voice of the people on this natter thaH at any
time in the history of this movement, aud to
allow any compromise to satisfy their now
reused sense of duty, or instinct of self
party preservation, would be sad if moi
fatal mistake on the part of Prohibitionists
This whole cry of high license is raised III
the interests ofcompromise and delay, and
the din of 1t is already deafening the ears OF
some reformers TO the more silent but wiser
voice OF Prohibition, which calls them to
answering devotion to principle as the only
true method of genuine reform.

A COMMUNIST.
Herr Most Gives a Definite Description OF
the Glass He Leads.

BALTIMORE SUM-
Herr Most defined a Communist as one
who is convinced Of the need of the estab-
hshment of social system radically differ
ent from that Of to-day; a system In which
capital is the common property of the people.
Communism is directly opposed to the
present system, where one man grows rich
at the expense Of thousands of Others. He
then spoke of the gradual concentration OF
wealth and means in the hands of a few, in
stead of remaining with those who had ere
ated it. The census showed that ten years
ago the average annual income was
$50; to-day II was only $40;
fact which clearly argued a need
for change, and every change must accept
communism for It's basis Communism
could not be established by overturning
present rights and privileges; but the ques-
tion was not whether the rights of few
were violated, but that the rights of the
many were obtained. The French revolu-
ton had overturned rights, and what the
bourgeoisie of that revolution had cause
against, medieval feudalism, the working
man of to-day would do against, modern
feudalism. There was no use petitioning
legislative bodies, which consist only Of the
representatives and dummies Of capital, but
might must be met with might.

The RECENT financial operations of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company, as re
ported in an article from the Baltimore Day
and published elsewhere in to-day's paper,
look as though the new line from Baltimore
to Philadelphia will soon be in course of
construction. The entire amount of stock
and mort gage bonds to be issued for the
performance of the work is about $lS, 900 900,
which is certainly ample to construct and
equip the line in the most substantial and
complete manner. The comfortable assui
ance given by the fact, that the road is
backed by company having a clear surplus
of over S44, 200, 900 renders the placing of
these securities comparatively easy mat
ter.
