To-day Michigan falls into the line
of high license States, and oil who
sell splrituous liquors will have to pay
5000 license fee, while the vendors of
wine and beer will be required TO pay
$500. There are but three Northern
States-New York, New Jersey and
Indlana--where Prohibition does not
prevail but what have a high license
law, and it is only question of time
before such laws will he adopted by
every State. The three States above
would no doubt have had high license
had 1t not been for the Democrats,
who in each instance defeated tine pro
posed liquor legislation, and In New
Jersey repealed that which had already
been adopted by the Republicans.
High license has done vast deal OF
good in Pennsylvania and Massachus-
etts. consequently 1t is becoming more
popular everywhere. 1t will shortly
be tried in this city, and then we can
have the opportunity of judging fol
ourselves and from our own expert

WEDNESDAY. MAY 1. 1880.

One hundred years ago yesterday
this government took its place as one
OF the nations of the earth. Previous
to that time 1t had only been thirteen
colonies, belonging to and ruled by
England. For eight years our fore
fathers fought in defense of the princi.
pies that all men are created free and
equal, and at last this fact was acknowl
edged by the principal nations OF the
world. Then came the commence
ment of u new era In the worlds his
tory, when the man who was first in
war and first in peace was inaugurated
as the first President of these United
States. At that time the populaticr
of the entire country WAS less than
four millions. Now It will reach sixty
i've millions. Steamboats,. railroad
cars, telegraphs, telephones and cleo
tGic lights were unknown, and things
that are now necessities were looked
upon as luxuries. The revenues Of
the government were not five million
dollars, but last year they were over
three hundred and eighty million dol
lars. During the first year of Wash
ington's administration the imports
amounted to twenty-three million dol
lars, and the exports TO twenty million
dollars.
Last year our imports amounted to
seven hundred and thiGty three mil
lion five hundred thousand dollars, and
our exports to seven hundred and
twenty three million FIVE hundred
thousand dollars. During the hundred
years that have elapsed since the in
auguration OF General Washington the
thirteen colonies have increased 10
forty-two States, extending from the
Atlantic to the Pacific ocean, and from
Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. We
have had q war with England, several
wars with the Indians, war will
Mexico, and war for the suppression
of the greatest rebellion ever recorded
In the history OF the world, in all o.
which we as q nation have been sue
cesstul. To day the United States
stands the greatest nation on the uni
verse, and a beacon light to the OPP
pressed of all other nations. The great
republic has passed through its bsp
tlsm of fire and blood, and proved Il
the world that it is "a government o.
the people, by the people and Tor the
people" Surely we have good cause
10 return thanks to the great giver o.
all good, who has made, kept and pre-
served US nation.

ably commented upon. This, how
ever, was nothing more than was ex-
pscted, as every Delawarean knows
that we have just cause TO be proud OF

has brought out several very inn
portant facts, among them being, that
under no circumstances do We need q
large standing army. The smallest of
the European nations IS obliged to sup,
port an army, but in this country
nothing of the kind is needed, for il
The necessity should arise, at least one
hundred Thousand Of our militia could
be concentrated ut any point within
twenty four hours. The war Tor the
suppression of the rebellion showed
what these citizen soldiers can do anC
endure, and the fact that an army cal
be raised at few hours notice is ont
of the best arguments that can be PRO
duced in favor of tie fact that Inan |

= II is said that school of Journalism
will be started at the Univerity of
Pennsylvania next fall, but we must
confess that we have fears in regard
to its success. 1t is possible TO give
q man the very best education, but
It is not possible in every case to make
him good journalist, or reporter
Therefore there Is not much hope that
this school will be able to make many
journalists. The best reporters are
those who have an aptitude for the
work, and this cannot be given by
any amount Of education or college
trainsng. We remember an instance
which occurred in this city not many
years ago, where a young man
who had as good an education as Il
was possible for any one to secure
was employed on one Of the papers
BE was able re ID or write In seVera
languages, and proficient short hant
writer; but after working a few
months he was discharged, because h,
was not reporter, He was able to writ
excellent essays, but was not abl'
70 grasp news, and serve it up in 6
manner that would please tn
people. A man cannot be reporte
without being educated, but at tn
same time II Is equally true that
man cannot be educated to be IT
porter.
