"Silence is Golden.'

General Grant periodically emerges from
his well merited obscurity to indulge in a
| few commonplace placebos in order to
tickle public fancy; for instance, he recently
wrote to Mr.. Blaine that: They have been
abusing you as they did me; but they will
| elect you nevertheless
sit is the general verdict that if Mr.. Blaine
| is guilty of onehalf of the crimes which
have been charged up against General
Grant that he should be defeated by an
| ovei whelming majority. 1t is the merest
folly to designate as abuse, charges which
can be substautiated If General Grant
really wishes to confer n favor dpon the
general public he can Ito 50, in 10 better
way than in explaining what became of the
seventeen million Of dollars which the firm
of Grant & Ward have failed to account for.
1t will be remembered that a short time
prior to the Chicago Convent III of 1890,
when the Grant Hippodrome, which had
been placed on wheels especially tn promote
Grants presidential prospects, reached
Atlanta, Georgil, that General Giant in
addressing those who had houored HIM with
their presence said that lie himself believed
that osc who fought in gray were as
enthusiastic in their support of their com
mon country as those were who fought in
blue" but in nine weeks after lie gave
expression to tia, sentiment, lie boldly
declared at Republican gathering at Utica,
n. y, 'tlat the Sonthernels were pack Of
unregenerated rebels, and that the rens OF the
national government would be unsafe in
Democratic hands," Genera! Grant was
false to himself either in his Atlanta or in
his Utica speech, and as the truism ''Bttlsus
in ano, .trlsuS in omRibus, " is as applicable to
General Grant as to any one else. the

men.

Last week prior to the Ohio election the
Swift Iron and Steel company" of Cincin-
natl had the following notice posted through
out their shops:--
'These mills will be closed tonight to
remain shut down until after the Ohio elec-
ton. 1f the result is favorable to the Re
publicans work will be resumed on Wednes-
day next, the day following the election. lf
it is favorable TO the Democrats the mills
will remain closed until after the November
election. If Blaine is chosen President work
will then be resumed. If Cleveland is elect
ed the suspension will be Continued ndefi-
ditely."
The following notics is an unmistakabe
declaration to the employees of the ''Swift
Iron and Steel Company" that they must
do the bidding of their masters or be dis
charged from employment. If the workmen
of this country do not at once rebuke this
high-handcd outrage upon their inherent
rights they are unworthy the name of free
men. The right of franchise is the most
glorious right of the American citizen and
any encroachment upon this scored privilege
must be met with heroic treatment.

Scenic Art.

Strolling behind the scenes of the Grand
Opera Housee lately, Manager Baylis was
found. He was holding conference with
the science artist Mr. Hawthorne. The sub
ject under discussion was whether the cur
tain Vera Cruz should be wiped out and
new picture take its place. The matter is
undecided at present. There are strong
reasons both pro and con in relation to the
matter, of course the most prominent argu-
ment for its condemnation is its long service
and that it were time now that something
new take its place. Those who hold that
theory might be reminded that the province
of work of scenic art like that under con
sideration is, Or ought to be, not altogether
similar to that Of a picture. The duty of a
drop scene is not to introduce the audience
to another brilliant, attractive picture simi-
lar, or to hold place in the same category,
with the pictures, the living pictures, repre-
sented on tie stage. In the exact proper
tion that the drop scenes rivals or outshines
in artistic effort the actual stage picture, in
that ratio is it Immediately disqualified as
drop scene. This is a fundamental rule Of
the greatest and most successful stage effect
manager the world has seen, Henry Irving.
The drop scene curtain in effect should be
neutral, it should have no positive value.
1t should rest the eye, should not be an
agent in attracting it, the latter is the pre-
rogative of the dramatis persone, the
arrangement Of drapery in color and form
used by them, and the accidents of the stage
such as the ordinary accessories of stage
property &c. Outside of these considera-
tions every Cruz" though old, is graceful
picture, it rests the eye without wearying it
the subject is eminently fitted for the
position it has held SO long. It is to be
hoped that it may be retained.

Church Music.

The proper heading for this article should
perhaps be congregational singing" 1t is
in order, we think, to ask why, or to demand
why, the ordinary singer is debarred now
adays from the pleasure of singing in
church!
We will make the concession to that pest
ferrous tyrant Dame Fashion, Just simply be-
cause we must, that the choirs may remain.
Just like eating and drinking and other
physical pleasures of the natural senses, we
enjoy singing, and when we go to church
we go there to indulge our modest and
uncultured vocals We deprive pleasure
from the exercise. Our experience shows
us that we deprive less pleasure in hearing
Others sing. We are aware the others have
the name of trained vocalists, but that gives
us no pleasure whatever. On each occasion
the trained choir arises to chant hymn,
the only sensation felt by us is resentment
at the intrusion of those voices and exasper-
alton that we have to pay for it, We are
told that we do not sing near as well our
selves, and never can expect to. Can you
realize the smallness, of that argument, its
utterinsignificance when put to number
of men and women of the old go-to-meeting
style whose tongues and lips tingle with
sensation as the grand old hymn ''All hail
the power of Jesus name" is given out
You know little of human nature if you
think the finest qualtett choir ever 'invent-
ed" (we were near saying) could head them
off, or lead them, or hold them in leash.
Let the choir, as an independent, scien
titic entity still continue and we are gener-
GUS enough to pay for it-bnt pray do not
let them trench on our share of singing

A Clerical Protest.

The protest of the methodist cergymen OF
this city against the increasing practice of
Sunday funerals appears to have great
deal of merit and cause for legitimate con
demnation from that body. To discourage
Sunday parades with their accompaniment
of Haunting banners, braging trumpets and
citizens in uniform is not outside tile recog-
nized business of those gentlemen 1t is
expected that they animadoert upon the
custom as tending to desecrate tie Sabbath
and as out of harmony with the sanctity
of the day. The personal appeal from the
ministers in regard to it as hindrance to
their Sunday duties can probably be
arranged between the pastor and his flock.
There are, it is very likely, some instances
where a burial might have as easily taken
place on Saturday, or the following Monday
as on the Sabbath, but it is extremely prob
able that sanitary laws rule or limit these
exceptional Instances much more than the
mental yagaries of the friends ard relatives
Of the friends and relatives of the deceased.
strong reason, however, in favor of the
Sunday practice is that our less wealthy
citizens are averse to losing day wages,
but at the same time have as strong wish
to do honor to their deceased fliend. II
compromise could be made between the pas.
tor on the one side and the more ardent
funeral lover on the other, BY which the
noisy fife and drum corps might be dropped
together with the excessive parade OF long
lines of carriages and yariegated uniforms
not only would the conscience of the clergy
be in measure appeased, but the ockers
of the heavily taxed relatives would not be
lightened, and above all, the general public
would be under an everlasting obligation to
the Methodist clergy of Wilmington for
their protest.

HyInenfaI &ali,1 y. ,

On "Wednesday last Dover social circles
were astr with unusual interest. The oc-
casion was the marriage of Sadie Barnard of
that place with Dir. Peter Cooper of this
city. The ceremony was performed at Christ
Episcopal Church by the rector of the par
ish. By 1890 a. M, the building was filled,
a large number of WilmiDgtonians being
present headed by DR.. ]. W. Cooper, the
groomsman and brother of the groom. A
considerable company from New York city,
present.
AT II o'clock as the inspiriting peals of
the wedding march rang through the Chu rch,
the bride in elegant attire, attend ed by q
single bridesmaid, appeared at the altal
rails, and was met by the groom who was
waited on by his brother DR.. j. w. Cooper
The simple but impressive ritual cerem my
of the Episcopal Chmch was quickly over,
and as the jublant notes of the organ broke
forth anew the newly married pair were
surrounded by their numerous friends and
relatives who fastened to congratulate
them upon the happy event. ...
At O p. m, Doctor and Mrs. Cooper held
an informal reception at their residence No.
220 West Ninth Street. Additional num-
bers OF friends who were unable to attend
the ceremony at Dover took that occasion tC
offer their congratulations. There were
numerous presents of silver ware and house,
hold bijouterie received, especially from the
brides friends and relatives at Dover DR.
and Mrs. Negendank each made presents
the Young Mems Republican club presented
silver waiter, and from the brides parents
silver tea service was received.

The smyrna 7imes,an independent journal,
with Republican affiliations, in speaking of
Mr.. Smthers somersault on his temperance
record says: THAT some of Mr.. Smthers'
best friends are surprised, that he did not
retire from public life without giving his
last fling at his former co-laborers the tenn
perance people. Public opinion has
advanced immensely since he was young
man, but some how this was not taken into
consideration. The people of this age have
to do with the things of to-day, and not the
buried past"
The case of Mr.. Smithers is only another
illustration of the fact that history is bound
to repeat itself,
When Horace Greeley parted company
with the principles which he had cherished
and advocated for two score of years he was
speedily railroaded to his political death
and there were none to do him honor; SC
Mr. Smithers will find that he made fata
mistake when he sought to bring into disre
pute an element with which he formerly
co-operated.

Who is Responsible? +?

During the school vacation we frequently
called the attention Of the Board OF Educa-
ton to the defective sanitary condition of
tine public schools, and we implored the
Board TO so change the location OF the cess
pool vaults during the al interim, that the
children attending the public schools might
be spared breathing an atmosphere 80 con
taminated by cesspool exhibitions as to
leopard ze their lives-but supplicatons
were unheeded, and to-day diphthera is
making an inroad upon the lives of our
| children that promises to be appalling before
the year will close.
In some of the public schools of this city
the atmosphere is so charged with the
eflluva, which emanates from the privy
vaults, that it is almost unbearable. The
children tell their parents OF the unpleasant
odor in the school rooms, and the teachers
decry the existing evil, but there seems to
be no redress. The etiology of diphtheria
may be somewhat OBSCURE yet all scientists
agree that yitiated air not only serves as a
indus for the diphtheretic virus, but also
that impure air is pabulum upon which
diphtheria especially thrvrs; and this much
is so easy Of veriication that scarcely had
the school session opened before the desolat-
ing march of diphtheril had startled many
a happy home in this city.
| If the Board of Education does not at
once order IL most rigid inspection of the
sanitation of the schools of this city, then, it
becomes the bounden duty Of the Board Of
Health to assert its prerogative in this mat
ter. If there were one-half of the number OF
cases of smallpox in this city that there are
Of diphtheria at this time there would be a
panic among our citizens, and as between
the malignancy, the virulency and the
fatality of these two affections, diphtheria
outranks smallpox. We are not alarmists,
but we think the time is now ripe that an
inquiry be instituted into the origin and
propagation Of diphtheria in our midst, and
as known cases Of that dreaded affection
have occurred among those in attendance
at the public Schools it might be most
opportune to investigate the condition OF the
heating and ventilating appliances Of said
schools. The Boatd of Education has
three as able and intelligent physicians as
there are in the profession, and the report
that Drs. West, Keables and Shortlidge
would make of the sanitary condition of the
public schools of this city would be accepted
as fnality by our citizens. There is
t growing suspicion that there is something
a radically wrong in the hygiene of our schou
system, and already parents are demandin.
