The Censor,s DeadI, work.

The publishers OF the Cyclostyle, the
high school paper learned last week that
the sea of journalism is not without rip
pies. Before issuance their print was
submitted to the principal, who objected
to an article rejecting on the management
of the Holmes Literary society. The up
shot of the matter was that the youthful
editors were compelled to paste a slip over
the Objectionable paragraph. OF course
everyone who received the paper removed
the slip and read the suppressed article.

The coming local campaign in
the State seems to grow in interest
from day to day. In the city of
Wilmington considerable effort is
being made to purge the ballot-box
of illegal votes, and if the plans pro-
posed are faithfully carried out, a
new era of things will be realized.
Let a man be a Democrat or Repub-
lican, and firmly adhere to his prin-
ciples, but let each take upon him
self the duty of guardian, to purify
the ballot-box, and secure a fair and
just vote. Let the registration law
be strictly adhered to, and if this is
done, less unworthy men will find
their way into Office. Political dead
beats will disappear, and the offices
will be filed with men worthy Of
the people they represent.

Stone Of Wilmington in relation to
the registration lists IN that oity
seems purely right and urgently
necessary for the promotion of
honesty at the ballot-box. This is
about the full meaning of Mr.. Stones
suggestion. at is that the Citizens
Association, Or either or both of the
party executive committees, or n
general committee of volunteers,
have complete copies made of the
lists now hanging up at the various
pooling places. Such copies should
show the name and residence OF
each voter and the district in which
he lives, and give the boundaries of
the districts, the names to be arrang-
ed alphabetically. "When these
names shall be so arranged, publish
the list as supplement to one or
all of our daily papers. There will
be but about 1000 names. Then
let every citizen interested in pure
elections turn himself into detec-
tive and see if any fraudulent names
appear in his own vicinity, and, if
so, inform the department of Elec-
tons at once of the fact"
