SCHOOL NOTES.

When pupils play truan,, the parents are
often much to blame.
Territorial Superintendent Wylic has ar.
ranged with the Union Pacific railway CO.
to have teachers attending the institute, re.
| tnrncd at onc.fiith fare.
At present there are ,64 pupils attending
the Dillon school, divided among the teach
c.s as follows Mr.. Knapp, 30; Mrs. Voc,
81; Miss Williamson, "a; Mrs. Taylor, Is.
The trustees Of this district tried tho cx.
pertinent Of having onc-half OF the pupils
in the tst and End grades(Mrs. Taylors
room) attend in the forenoon, and the other
| half in the afternoon. The parents Of the
children made SO much objection, that the
plan was discontinued, and now over sixty
urciins arc again crowded into space on.
~ calculated for forty. Another room and
and an additional teacher should be provi.
ded. No teacher can do justice to herself
and pupils, who has more than thirty pu.
pills in her charge.
Prof Wylic, the Territorial Sup't of Pub-
lie Instruction, in recent address delivered
at Billings, maintained that "school chill.
drcn should not be given tasks to do at
hcme. Six hours OF application TO study
is sufficient for each day and extra tasks
are more likely 10 cloud the intellect, and
do permanent injury than to be attended
with beneficial results. The child that is
obliged to do sums from tea to bedtime is
oppressed by unhealthy dreams OF long col.
umns of figures, and soon becomes out OF
condition for even the rational course oil

farmers forget for the time that thew

a camp meeting, with a sanity exhor-
ter delivering to them a message from

one Of these occasions like as if he was
in an old-fashioned Love Feast where
with unctuous voice he declared that
he liked the kind, honest-hearted
people Of old Sussex; he liked the
soil Of old Sussex and when he died
he wanted to be buried among the dear
peOpleOf old Sussex" but took good
care when he left his home for an in

that the one soil is good to grow conf

The Coming Crisis.

Mr.. EDITOR On the l4th proximo
the electors of this State will meet at
their respective voting places for the
purpose of selecting delegates to repfe-
sent them at the State Convention.
August 18th. At that time a candidate
for Governor and a Representative in
Congress will be chosen. Perhaps at
no time in the history of politics in
Delaware has so much interest been
manifested by the voters as to the work
of that convention. The candidates
most prominently spoken of for Gov
ernOr are Messrs. Biggs, Cochran and
Herbert, all of New Castle county.
The latter county's claim to nominate
the candidate is conceded. 1t is also
conceded by friends of Mr.. Biggs that
he cannot carry his own hundred (he
lodged the salary grab vote but ac-
cepted the grab all the same and that
fixed his business politically, and
whilst it is known that he cannot be
the choice of his own county it is pro-
posed by the Salisbury Machine -
that this opposition shall be overcome
by the support of Kent and Sussex.
Now, l ask, is it fair, is it just, is it hon
orable, that the lower counties should
interfere and prevent the people Of our
county from making their choice? and,
permit me to ask, what is the cause of
this determined effort on the part of a
few to force this nomination on the peo-
pie? l believe, and so do great many.
that he is the railroad candidate. We
know something Of the influence of
that gigantic corporation and how if
has controlled the legislation of the
great States of Pennsylvania and New
New Jersey for years. Is reaching out
also for our State and our Legislature? ?
1t looks very much like it. Season

The war inaugurated against the de-
moralizing policy shops of Wilmington
year or more ago by the Morning
Ne'0s is at last resulting in good fruits,
by the cooperation of Mayor Rhoads
and his police. On Saturday the keep
ers of no less than five of these dabas-
ing places were arrested and put un-
der bail for their trial. 1t is a wonder
why these miserable dens have been
allowed to go so long unmolested, and
gratifying to have the mayor say he is
determined to crush the evils because
they are the prolific source Of filling
the cells with pauper criminals.

Or all the foolish and causeless
strikes that have been inaugurated
this Summer that in New York last
week takes the cake. Twenty-seven
weavers in a ribbon factory took a no.
tion that they must be allowed a pint
OF beer each at halfpast three O'Clock
every day or they would quit work.
The manufacturer, who had probably
gwen in TO them on other demands
decided to draw the line at beer, and
hence they went on a strike and
while they drank beer to their hearts
content the sixty or seventy other
weavers who did not want beer were
compelled to lay off and thus deprived
Of the means of earning bread for their

OUR esteemed cotemporary, the
Smyrna Record, in referring editorially
TO our quotations from the papers of
the State under the head of "Public
Opinion and the Expressions of the
Press on Different Topics" calls it a
delectable rehash Of some senseless re-
marks prevalent in the esteemed Re-
publican Peninsularpress." We would
ask our cotemporary when did the
Delmoaredn, SUSSEX Journal, SUNDAY
Star and Weekly Rerieao become Re
publican papers? We quoted from six
papers, only two of them distinctly Re.
publican papers, and yet our cotem-
porary thinks this is neither sitting nor
standing on the independent fence"
Well, perhaps it isn't, if it is a breach
of independence to quote another's
opinion.

TT has long been known that gam
blers, policy dealers, &c, have taken a
strong hand in Wilmington politics.
It's gratifying to see the Ecery EUen-
ing take the following strong position :
Whenever a political party gets
down so low that it must dicker with
professional gamblers for the votes they
can deliver, it is time for the commu-
nifty to sit down heavily on that party.
Decent party leaders will scorn to be-
come party to such transactions, and
if there be men with political aspira-
tiOns disposed to hang on the coat-tails
Of policy writers, let them and their
allies go down together"
