msrshals to the polls, NJ you have done
to us so many years. We will grind you
to powder, under the military arm, as
you ground us when, In the Charley
Brown campaign, you virtually disfrsn-
chlsed every Democrat in Delaware" But
they did nothing of the kind. They put
behind them the temptation to render
evil for evil, and for the past four years
no government official has been allowed
TO stand between the American freeman
and the ballot.box.
Then, too, the threat brings up mem
oriss of the same misuse of the ASSESS.
n,snt system by the Republicans Of which
they have SO long been Accusing the
Democrats, and which is to be revived in
Sussex if-the Democrats will not do
their bidding. Turn back the files OF
any of our local papers for is or so years,
and the reader will see the sanctimonious
cloak stripped OF and the oloven hoot
exposed. Referring at random to back
file of the Del1soa-e Gasstts, we read this
sentence in an editoriel of the issue Of
March 29sh, 1874: "Time and again hun
dreds of Democrats have been left of in
Wilmington, and many say it was done
willingly, and, what was worse, the Radi-
cal levy court on several occasions OBJ
jsctsd to putting them on when they
were present"
Similar nttsranoes could be multiplied
almost indehnitely were IL worth while;
but we have said enough to show that
our pious friends would do we'll to go q
little slow on "infamous systems," either
here or in Sussex.

The De5G1GreHn says "that the fruit
growers of lover Delaware pay nearly
every cent of tax on the p, W. & B. rail-
road, by way of increased charges for
fruit that has no other outlet" The alb.
eurdity of this assertion is its own refuta-
ton. The Delaware railroads main line
is 95 miles long, from Delmar to Delaware
junction. At Delaware junction fruit on
lis way to market passes on to the tracks
or the r, ". & D. railroad, and over
those tracks to the State line, about II
miles. Here then, without counting the
down-State feeders OF the Dslaware road,
We have 9j miles OF fruit carriage over the
former to ii miles over the p,
W. L b. tracks. II then the fruit
growers Of lower Delaware ''paid
nearly every cent" OF last yaar's $40, 600
State tax on the F., W & b., they should
have paid "nearly" $3.50, 900 of State tax
for nino times as long carriage over the
95 miles OF the Delaware. Iustesd, the tax
on the Delaware rnad did not reach one
hunaredsh part of this sum being only
So 900. II we admit that the truit
growers paid every cent of this So, 200
tAz for 50 miles of carriage, how much is
i. reasonable to suppose they paid Tor
the remaining II miles of carriage over
the r., w. & b, tracksP Or are we t.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2O.--A statement 10 re.
gard TO the Samoan question was prepared
at the department Ct state and furnished
tor publication yesterday. Il opens as fol-
lows:
'The interest lately manifested in the
Samoan Islands renders pertinent refer
ence TO several incidents which dlscloses
the position heretofore maintained by the
United States concerning that group. The
advocates OF the assumption OF virtual
protecforate over those islands by the
United states appear to have lost sight of
tue fact that this government, In pn suanoe
OF Its traditional and established policy re-
s riding remote foreign possessions, has at
least hve times refused to assume such a
Telat on. The disayowal by MIR. Bayard OF
Consul Greenbsum's act three yenrs ago In
raising the Amsrican flag and declaring a
protectorate In the name OF the United
5tates ~ fresh in the public mind, and need
not be further discussed"
The promise Of r protectorate made bv
S'einherEer 10 1873, the repndiation of the
raising OF the American Nag at Apia BY
Commercial Agent Calmesnit IN 1877, and
similar action by Consul Griffin In 1878
are referred TO-, and ths report concludes
"rhess are Important facts to BIS consid-

The retirement of George NJ. D. Hart Of
Arp qrinlmink hundred from the Board
