ktats Reform.

Notwithstanding the great need OF
reform, 10 many State questions not
eyllabie In favor of reform has the
Democratic party uttered in Its State
platform In favor Of 1t. I'VE refer TO
the past record Of the Democratic party
~ 9 pledge for Its future course" Is oil
the promise Of anything tina. can be
4 ,und in the 8 ate Democratic platform.
But hos much better has the Demo
cratic County CInvention done than
she State Conven ton? In New Castle
County, tho popular vote OF possibly
o ,me four thousand legitimate Demo
cratic votes and the same number OF
votes Of ballot-box staffers, decides who
the candidates are to be without =
County Convention, and hence there 10
NO expression Whatever ON any reform
topic. Kent County held her Conven-
tion two weeks ago, but not q word
Written or spoken has been left upon
record In favor OF reform. Sussex
County hold her Convention on Tues
dsy last, and from 1t arises the proven
bial cloud mot bigger than . mans
hand" In favor Of reform. But this 10
only one county ont OF three. The
Sussex Democrats say that Constita-
tional Convention should be called, but
what questions or abuses are to be re-
formed by that Con vention it does not
state. A certain vagueness In Its de-
Clsratious would lead Us to infer that
1t would favor District representation,
but that Is all, and even the practice Of
this principle may be 80 ingeniously
hedged around that 1t may mean no
reform ct all. Consequently, then, We
capnot expect any reform from the
DenocrAtic party. That party has
been In power thirty years In the State,
and the fact that nothing has been done
by 1t except TO pass law which result
ed in disfranching IN opposing political
party Ia not very promising omen for
future reforms.
But there 10 political party in our
safe that In promising reform In many
respects, and 1t may be set down for Q
certainty that II this party is successful,
reform will have more than . name in

We read in the Record
the other day that some wise
Frenchman has found a way
to turn wool-waste n t o
soap. 1t may be true.
Some newspaper news is
true.
About half the weight OF
natural wool is said to be
waste. If that is turned in
to soap, the prices of soap
and wool ought to drop.
Will you wait for them to
drop!
Well, on the other hand
YOU needn't rush into cloth
Ing, uI1oo-ssuirh upiioiet.lJ,
carpets and other wooden
stufs because wool is rising.
So also with silks.
We don't believe in TAX
ing alarm at every turn In
the market. Indeed it isn't
certain there is any turn in
the market. There are other
conditions besides the prices
of raw materials. The prices
of silk and wooden stuff:
may be higher next year
They may be lower. Strictly
speaking it is none of oul
business at present.
The merchant who tries
to scare you into buying by
threats of a rise is as mucl
of a merchant as Virgins il
of a weather-prophet; jus
as much; no more. Yol
would never hear of eithe
but for the newspapers.
