More Appointments.

DIR. EEzEKIEL DAWSON OfFrederica,
has received an appointment as chief
of the division Of public debt in the
treasury department at Washington,
at salary of $500 per annum. Or.
Dawson is an old union soldier. and
is So years old; SO Of which he has
devoted to the practice of medicine
and surgery. He entered the army
as assistant surgeon Of the Third Del
aware Regiment OF Volunteers, and
was commissioned as a surgeon and
promoted to important post duties.
His health falling lie was compelled
to resign, but after recuperatiOn he
returned to the general hospital ser
vice under contract. Politically he
threw down the gauntlet in the log
cabin campaign of 1910, and ever since
has fought persistantly but quietly
against the democratic party. He is
also one of the original declared re-
publicansof Kent County; beginning
in the days after the Kansas and
Nebraska contest With Mr.. John
7. Clements NOW ofSmyrna) recruited
tie first captain and first soldier from
Kent county, and aided largely in or
ganizing the company under the call
of President Lincoln. From the ell
trance of Senator Higgins into public
life, he has been his firm friend and
60. worker for the Republican party
Being disabled from active practice OF
his profession, he asked place in the
public service; not as reward, but that
he might be useful therein. His leni-
ence as a collector and sympathy with
suffering, have caused him financially
to be in very moderate circumstances,
when he should have been well off.
Peter B. Ayers, of Wilmington, has
been appointed deputy collector of Gus
toms for Delaware.

IN last weeks CHRONICLE there
appeared an article clipped from the
EaeNine journal, of Wilmington, of Il
week previous, which reflected upon
the honor of Charles II. Treat, and
which Mr.. Treat positively contra
dicted in the Meas and Ad1eJziSey as
false and without foundation. We
were on n trip through the West dur-
ing the entire week in which the issue
was made up, and knew nothing Of
either publication until we arrived
home; when the entire matter was
laid before US. The clipping from the
E5eRlNg journal was made by the
gentleman we left in charge, who
awaited its contradiction for nearly
one week, and none coming, he used
the matter as piece of news. In Il
private letter to us Mr.. Treat explains
why no contradiction was made
which was because he was not in the
State of Delaware at the time of its
publication in the E0eHiNg Journal and
knew nothing of it until it re-appeared
in the CHRONICLE, and further ex.
pressed his surprise that it should be-
there. because of the personal friend
ship that has existed for ten years be-
tween himself and the editor of the
CHRONICLE. On Tuesday morning
last we visited the proprietor of the
Atlantic Hotel at Ocean City, where
the transaction was said to have oc-
CURED, for the purpose of learning tue
truth of the matter The proprietor
was about closing his hotel for the sea
son, aud positively refused to be inter
viewed. The chief clerk was accessi-
BILE, though; and when shown the ar
ticle, was very indignant that Mr..
Treat aud his family should be so
rudely insulted. He said that Mr..
Treats family were very pleasant
guests, aud that every penny ofn.-
debtedness contracted by them or by
Mr.. Treat, had been paid. 1T were

PHILADELPHIA. Monday, Sept ?, 1889.
Our bolicy-a new policy.
The new Autumn things are
crowding in upon us hourly
for the present let them care
for themselves. You'll find
them.
Just now our talk is on a new
feature for the opening OF a sea
son. We call it our September
Limited Sale.
The limitations are:
First. Space. With all the
vastness of the store we can
only give to the special Bar
gains that are in this sale the
required room for a Limited
Period. The new things may
wait a little now, but you
wouldn't be pleased were they
not prominent soon.
Second. Time. From the
regular business now pressing
hard npon us we cannot divert
attention very long. The ebb
and flow of the merchandise of
the seasons is a movement
quite like the tides. Occasion
ally there is a freshet. This is
"a freshet a Aood-soon over.
1t must be to give place to the
regular proceedings of the
stuffs and things. Hence Lin
tied by Time.
Third. Quantities. All
things in this Limited Sale are
at prices very far below value,
and of course Limited. They
cannot be replaced. You get
them by unusual conditions.
Somebody loses more or less
heavily on each item. Gener-
ally more. Men may be
mostly fools" but they are not
gone so clean daft as to CON
tinue losing indefinitely. Hence
an end in view to the biggest
lots.
And that's the why of the
title

THREE years ago Wilbur. Burnite.
of Kent county, was "a strong candi-
date for Congress at the hands of Dem
Ocracy in Delaware; but his friends
thought 1t best for him to wait for GU
berternatOrial hOnOTs after Benjamin
r. Biggs, whose ambition for the
Governors chair dates back for "a
quarter Of a century, had been hon
Ored. AS the time draws nearer for
another election, the contending ele-
ments in Kent county are preparing
for the fight Mr. Burnite is a farmer
near FELTON,, and is fairly well fixed in
this worlds goods. He is identified
with the Stockley wing of the Demo.
cratic party, and is as progressive A.
any owning allegiance to that faction.
From 1882 to 1886 that wing of Democ-
racy was on top in Delaware politics.
and promised to make wonderful
changes in our organic aud statute
law; but with one or two minor ex-
ceptions their good intentions never
resulted i'm acts. The failure of their
proposed amendments to the State
Constitution for the lack of ratifica-
ton by the Legislature of 1867,
showed the insincerity of their enact
meut in 1884 5. This plainly proves
that the wing of Democracy to which
Mr.. Burnite belongs, is well satisfied
with the old rule and distribution Of
party patronage-county oflices-and
desires no change in the STATES con-
stitution. In other words, "the peO-
pie be damned, we know what's best
for the people" is the prevalent belief
of the leaders of Delaware politics and
they are unwilling to let the people
elect their county officers, or grant
minority representation in either Leg
islature or Levy Court. Mr.. Burnite
would fairly represent this spirit of
Democracy, and would as a man and
citizen, fill the Office with as much
credit us most of his predecessors. His
name at the head of the ticket would
be much stronger than that of Thos.
+. Bayard and il is not at all imprOb-
able that he may grasp the nomina-
zion from either Of the many candi- |
dates, among whom are Caleb Penne-
Will and Robert j. Reynolds. Let the
band play.
