Republicans and PrOhibitiOnists.
Philadelphia Record.

In their solicitude over the imminent rup-
ture of the Democratic party the Republicans
are likely to overlook their own impending
circus with the Prohibitionists. The temper
ance men are everywhere organizing for ac-
tive work in the state elections this fall, and
are adopting the sound policy of independent
nominations only policy for a party
which pretends to incarnate vital principle.
In New York the Prohibitionists are notably
jealous and have very heavy account to
settle with the Republicans, who have reviied
them as the authors of Blaines defeat, and
are Furnishing them by passing an excise bill
framed by the liquor dealers, and by voting
for licenses at the spring elections. Men who
have withstood the pressure of last years
campaign will only be confirmed in their OPP
position by such tactics and as the presi-
dency is not nominally at stake they will be
reinforced by voters who could not bring
their minds to boiling the ticket last year.
The prospect is not promising one for the
Republicans of the Empire state, and nobody
will feel very sorry for them.

THE announcement that REL spends his
time in religious devotions tends to confirm
the story that he is insane. A short time ago
he announced himself prophet and claimed
to be inspired. The whole story OF his re-
bellion reads like the doings of a lunatic. He
is fanatic and a religious enthusiast and the
boundary line between such a combination
and insanity is too narrow to be visible.

Such a Rebuke.

The Democratic victory in st. Paul at the
late city election is still a subject of congrat-

rebuke as is seldom administered to a venal

Villas a Favorite with Cleveland.

Washington Special
1t is generally understood that Mr.. Villas
will be candidate far the United States SEN
ate if the Wisconsin legislature is Democratic
two years from now. Mr.. Villas is one of the
favorites of the president He is with Mr..
Cleveland perhaps more than any other mem
Der of the cabinet. They are obliged to have
more numerous interviews on account of the
large number of Offices disposed of in the
postoffice department, but outside of this the
president has great liking for the Madison
professor He invites him oftener to dinner,
he is with him more in the evening, and goes
with him oftener to ride than any other MEM
Der of the cabinet.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, May 16.-What the railroads
gained the previous week in east-bound
tonnage they nearly lost during the past
week, there having been falling off of
almost IA, 900 tons in the eastern movement
in grains, flour and provisions. Probably
at no time has more decided effort on the
part of the roads OF solicitors been made
to capture freight, nor more special
inducements offered to shippers.
There has been really no pretense OF keep
ing to tariff, and the shading has been so
general that it is hardly worth while to par
ticulariZe. The several roads are account
able to nobody unless it be the general
managers, and with free field they have
succeeded in securing "a, 900 tons at figures
that with terminal and other charges de-
Quoted, will fall short by or cents per
ton, of paying the cost Of hauling. The
causes that have operated to produce the
falling off are many. Among these is the
fact that
SHIPPERS ARE NOT AT ALL ANXIOUS.
to send grain forward. The previous week
there was possibility existing that the cut
would be limited to a few days and that the
efforts being made to create a central pool
might be successful; but the opinion soon
prevailed, supported by all existing indica-
lions, that rates would remain demoralized
for an indefinite period and that there was
no necessity for rushing shipments for
ward. Discussing the question Of rates
ruling is simply to note that an ostensible
standard of Is to 20 cents has been high
water mark, but to pursue the smile, there
have not been very full tides in that direc-
ton In fact the maintenance of that rate
has largely been a myth, and the compet-
ton has brought it down as low as 1914

We have received a copy of the
instructive and interesting report of
the Hon. I, N. Williams, Superin-
tendent of the free schools of Della
ware. From this it appears there
were in 1884 421 school districts in
the State; and the number of schools
was 544, an increase of 80 as COM
pared with 1882. There seems to
be steady progress in all school work
in our little State, and we heartily
commend the faithfulness and en-
ergy of Mr.. Williams and his as
sistant, Mr.. Fl. c. Carpenter. The
report speaks in high terms of the
influence and usefulness of Della
ware College. These cultured SUI
perintendents are experienced teach
ers, and they well know that there
can be no great degree of excellence
in the primary schools of any COM
munity where the higher learning is
neglected.

ST. JoHN's COLLEGE at Annapolis,

in the same State is hourishing with

twenty years, and although there

Mcssrs. Editors.-.Why is it that there
has been no action taken in regard to
changing the name of this town? We are
sure that the people have considerable
trouble with the name now, and why not
give some other name? Call a meeting,
somebody, and let us hear what the peo-
Pile have to say, There are plenty who
will talk about changing the name in
deeds, mortgages, bonds etc, and what
trouble it will bring. We expect that
many of our townspeople are still tired
and are resting, and in consequence the
matter will rest Just where it is.

Messrs. Editors.-In one of the late is
sues of THE LEDGER there appeared an ar
ticle on the ungentlemanly conduct ofthe
hack drivers. 1t stikes us very fOrcibly
that there is some truth in the remarks
But, if a passenger has to sit any length
of time in either of the waiting rooms ut
the depot, on cold day, it takes rough
handling to get the blood to flow freely
through the almost frozen veins, Now
there are two evils to remedy. One
is tone down the conduct of the hack
drivers, and the other is to make the
depot more comfortable for the travelling
public. We think the hack drivers per-
feet gentlemen, and what they do is done
unintentionally, and after being called to
the rudeness shown, they will be more
careful in the future. The depot--Oh
miserable place in winter, and delightful
/ in summer.
