Only . day or two ago we were called
upon to chronicle the death of Senator
H. b. Anthony, of Rhode Island, and
now 1t becomes our duty to note the
death Of Secretary of the Treasury,
Charles j. Folger. Thus are the lights
of the nation going out one by one, and
in quick succession. Mr.. Folger'
ability as sound and honest statesman
was above the average. A, a State
Senator, as Judge of the Court of APP
peals, or as Secretary of the Treasury,
he has proved himself capable and hon
est, and no stain rests on his escut-
cheon.
Unfortunately he was induced to &C
cept the candidacy for Governor Of.
New York AT time when party fac
ton was at its height, and he fell a vic
ton to factional intolerance. But none
were more able to bear political misfor-
tune than Mr.. Folger. Without COM
planning he kept on in the performance
of his duties holding the finances of the
nation steady and in place with q
firm hand guided by an able mind.
Othe- Secretaries of the Treasury may
be found who will equal Mr.. Folser in
ability, but none certainly who will ex-
Gel him. The best eulogium of his char
acter is that he was an honest man, and
an honest man is the noblest work oil
God.

THE almost fatal accident that occur
red yesterday is to be sincerely regret
ted. IL was one that could not well
have been prevented, consideringth e
high pressure that is brought to bear
upon base ball playing. With such a
physically strong man as Nolan pitch
ing the ball comes in with a fearful
velocity, and. according to the rules of
the game, no limit is allowed To the
swiftness of the ball, if it can be caught
and held by the catcher.
Add to the celebrity of Nolan's ball an
Increased force from the batter who
struck it in such a manner as to accel-
crate its speed to the rear, and we need
not wonder at the dislocated jaw and
distigured face of the umpire, who was
accidentally struck. Even had the
ball been pitched with moderate force
the foul tip of the bat would have re-
suited the same. 1t was one of these
things which could not be- accounted
| for, and to which all base ball players
| are subjected While nobody can be
| blamed in particular there should be n,
less sympathy for the unfortunate um
| pire.

She needs change because the as
sessment laws cheat three thousand
voters out Of their votes every election
and theState out Of sixthousand dollars

She needs change to revise the
Judiciary of the State, which recng-
nizes life tenure of office She needs a
change that all voters in the State may
be made to pay proportionate share
of the taxes, and that tax-collectors'
duties may be made to collect taxes
instead of disfranchising Republican
voters. For various other reasons
Delaware needs change that Demo
Gratis seem to have entirely overlooked
in their demand for change Of politics
in the National Government. If
twenty -four years is too long for one
party to be in power in the National
Government, it occurs to US that the
same argument will apply to Della
ware. We hope Senator Bayard will
think of this in the frst campaign
speech he makes.

HIS Holiness, the Pope, has issued
an encyclical letter calling upon the
faithful everywhere to pray for stay
of the ravages of the cholera. Nobody
can have anything to say against this;
i'll fact the Pope is rather to be com
mendei for it. The only objection that
can be raised against his letter is that
he should have omitted to call the
attention of the faithful everywhere, but
especially in the countries of Italy,
p rance and Spain, to the extreme inn
portance of looking after municipal and
Personal cleanliness.
lie must know that after all there il
no better means of warding off the
plague than this. Prayers are all well
enough, but they are always more
etfectual when the greater half consists
OF action. God sooner helps those who
try the most to help themselves.

We are opposed to railroad monopo-
lies when they become crushing and
grinding in their operations to the bust.
ness of the country, and when an undue
advantage is taken Of the people. But
it is one of the absurdities of the times
and Of General Buffers position in the
present Presidential campaign, that
while he Is denouncing the monopolistic
evils of the great railroad corporations,
those corporations are engaged in a
com petitive war Of raits. 1t is another
absurdity of the situation that railroad
rates, both passenger and freight, are
lower in this than in any other country,
and that it is these already low rates
which the railroad companies are al
ways threatening to cut under. There
really cannot be railroad monopolies in
this country 80 long as the course is left
open for other companies to organize
and TO engage in the same business, and
much Of the talk of railroad monopolies
results either from ignorance or II en-
dacity. We who live in this section of
the country are now witnessing the
building of another railroad, running
from Baltimore to New York, through
our own city, which will be q compe-
titive railroad to the p, w. & b. rail
road.
There is no place on the face of the
globe where there is such active cbm-
petition in steam transportation over
land, as in this country, and even the
most stupid child knows that VIII
active competition is left open, there
can be no such thing as grinding
monopoly-at least, one that will con-
tinue monopoly very long. There are
competing lines of rails to every i'm
portant point, and there is amongst all
the companies the greatest rivalry in
the providing of travel and conveyance
of freight and transportation facilities
at the lowest rates. 1t is not only in
low rates, however, that the com petit
ton shows itself. 1t is shown even
more conspicuously in the great nurn ber
of trains, the speed obtained, the com
forts and even luxuries provided for
travellers, and the celebrity of carrying
freight. We can be as comfortably and
pleasantly provided for now in a rail.
road car as in hotel parlor. Whether
the fare Is exacting, or not, it is re-
markable that those who oppose rail
roads must have paid ten cents mile
for riding on miserable, jolting old
hack, when they can now ride in splen
,didly provided cars for three cents
mile. The trains are run as the public
demand them, and in the facilities ant
agreeable surroundings provided TO
travellers, the companies have reall,
outrun the public demands. Yet will
p all these facts made plain to every citi
zen who travels, General Butler woul,
have us to throttle and choke to leatl
railroad companies that now can scarce
~ more than live because they have
monopolistic tendency, and might som,
day become monopolies, if the people
permitted them to do so. All that i
needed In these days is that all kinds O
business shall be left open to free com
petition, aud then there will be nc dan
ger OF menopolies crushing the peopl
to the earth and grinding the life out q
the nation,

EX-SHERIFF Clevelanl

EX-SHERIFF Cleveland, it is said,
made over $40, 600 out of his Office dur
ing the two years he was Sheriff of
Erie County. The records show that
he charged the county for his hair
brush and fine tooth comb for what no
paid his paper carrier boys, and all
such little incidentals that other per-
sons not 80 grasping and avaricious
would have paid out of their own pock-
cts. In considering this question the
Chicago Journal is so immense as to
ask how much he could squeeze out of
the office of President and thesnrround-
ing White House pickings. The Jour-
nal had better get down to some easy
question, and not get confused with
figures that would lead up amongst the
millions.

ago q new bank was established at
Middletown, which, from the start, has
been a success and their business has
been growing 30 rapidly that its present
quarters were found to be inadequate to
transact their business with any degree
of satisfaction, and the erection OF a new
building was suggested. After examin-
ing several sites they arranged for the
purchase of one, az the following from
The Transcript" will show:
The Directors of the Peple's National
Bank of Middletown have bought of
L.P. Mcdowell the brick dwelling house
Oh Main street, east Of Broad, and twelve
feet of the adjoining lot belonging to
Miss Roberts, and will soon begin the
erection of a new banking house on the
latter property. The dwelling will be
but little changed. The Cashier will re-
side in it. The banking house will
have frontage of twenty eight feet. 1t
will be a graceful and substantial
building and will contain the custom
ary fire proof vault. 1t will adjoin the
dwelling. Work will be begun as soon
as settled weather comes, and the
bank will move to its new home when
the new home is ready for occupancy.

Corner LO uDgipE.

The Chief of Police has taken step
In instructing his officers to break up
corner lounging on Market street that
will meet with the approval Of all good
citizens, but he should also direct them
to raid the gangs that loaf in front Of
some OF the segar stores on the same
thoroughfare. Judge Cummins said in
conversation last Saturday, that all the
officers had to do was to arrest any Of
these parties that lounge on the corners
or obstruct the streets, staring at every
lady that passes, and frequently offer
ing insult, and bring them before him,
and he would enforce the law, which
pr escribes a penalty Of not less than 81
nor more than $40. Some Of the loung-
ers are concsited enough to think that
every lady that passes and happens to
speak to a person in the vicinity inten-
ded the salutation for them, and is so
smitten with their charms that their
company is desirable; in other words,
they consider themselves mashers."
The infliction of the heaviest fine pre-
scribed, on few Of them, would no
doubt have good effect, and the ladies
who are annoyed by them, could also
assist in the work Of breaking up the
nuisance, by providing a supply of red
pepper, and using it freely on any of
the bipeds who dared to insult them.
