PHILADELPHIA. Saturday, Feb. 2, 1883.
February Ist closes our bush
ness year.
The stock account is taken.
We STOP. we think, scratch
our heads for ideas and plunge
in the push and drive of an
other year.
Our energy is increased.
Our faith in the old square
dealing ways is confirmed.
You have confirmed it.
The first month of the cal.
endar year is over. People say
it has been a dull month. Not
SO here. You have believed
our announcements. Each spe.
cial offering of January has
bought quick-echoing, greatly
increased sales.
Perhaps we may have some
tales of stock-taking to tell. II
we do, we are sure of readers
more than Robert Elsmere.
Excuse the reference for sake
Of the smile, which is good.
Won't you read for your
pocket more than for head Oh
heart?
We think you will.
We will supply daily reading
in all the papers, which you
must not overlook. They will
touch your life.
The store is bright and full
of things that you want. That's
enough to tell to-day.

TarE,settlement OF the street car strike
in New Yorkis a far more important
matter TO the country than the settle
ment Of the Samoan question. The lat
ter is policy taught by the doctrinGire
of state craft, the former is a question
of vital Importance 10 the existanca and
safety Of our people and Of our enter.
prises in which the whole country is in.
terested The questions are the right OF
a man 10 manage his own business, and
of a laborer to sell his labor at price and
in a manner agreeable TO himself.
The strikers maintain that the street car
companies shall not operate their bust
ness at all, and that no new men shall
take the places Of the strikers. Both
positions, they are prepared TO enforce
with fire and death. They are prepared
to destroy any property and to murder
any men-they are equally careless
about either-to gain their ends Thou
sands Of men out Of work in New York
would gladly accept employment from the
railway companies il their lives were not in
danger. They are in many cases far more
needy than the strikers The merits Of
the questions between the strikers and
the railway companies cannot be consid
cred under the present conditions. The
strikers have became outlaws. They re-
fuse TO work themselves and they de-
mand that nobody else shall work no
matter how well satisfied he may be with
the wages and terms, nor how needy his
wife and children may be- Whether Or
not the railway companies Cypress their
employees is not, and cannot, be taken
into consideration till peace and order
shall have been secured. There is no
question that the men may quit work.
there is no question, perhaps, that the
railway companies are unjust. but it is
equally unquestionable that any man has
a right to accept any position that may
be open TO him, and that his rights must
be maintained at all hazards and that his
safety and his life mnst be made secure
II is question Of the people against a
mob. A question Of one workman who
is dissatisfied with his wages against
another workman who has no wages at
all.

Delaware ledger.
It really looks as if the two lower coun-
ties we're jealous of New Castle county.
Why there should be opposition to re
new the character of Delaware College is
a mystery TO us. Delaware College in
the past, It is true, has not been equal to
the educational interests Of other states,
but let us remember a number of men
have been graduated. and they add honor
to the state The money expended on
the institution has not been thrown
away Some fault Of the college not be
ing as prosperous to-day as other colleges
can be laid at the doors of the trustees
The college is now in better condition
than for years. The attendance is larger
than for years, and the corps Of profess
sors rank with the first.

West Washington market. which was
recently dedicated with imposing cere-
monies and opened for business in
New York city, is one of the finest
markets in America, if not in the world.
The large plot, extending from West
street to Eleventh avenue and from
Ganseyoort street north TO Bloomfield, is
now covered by ten substantial and
handsome market buildings, each 90 by
l75 feet, with alleys between and a com
mon frontage in a main gangway. The
whole is beautifully lighted by cleo
tricity, there is uniform pavement of
granite blocks, and the guttering and
sewers are arranged to secure perfect
cleanliness. The value of the ground
was S375,000. The buildings, drainage,
etc. cost $500, 1000, and the fitting up of
the 40 stalls $500 each-so the total cost
of the market is set at 81, 0O5, 900. Such
fancy rates do Gothamites have to pay
for a really first class market place.
But it is well worth the cost. as it
will. it is claimed, insure cleanliness and
convenience at the lowest practicable
expense. The buildings are two stories
in height, Of pressed brick of a light
brown color, with terra Gotta finish
Heavy iron pillars Of dark green support
the front, and iron screen shutters
painted maroon protect each Of the $40
stalls-all these on the ground floor, but
high enough to be considered really
a story and half. The second
floor is largely for offices, but contains
rooms for other purposes; it is finished
in Georgia pine. Each stab below is
9x25 feet, stoutly framed and web sup
piled with hooks; and each dealer there
can, if SO desired, have an Office directly
above, reached by spiral staircase.
And for all this space the city charges
him but 81 per week. Ii is estimated
that fifteen beeves can be hanged in
each stall, OF a corresponding amount OF
poultry, mutton or other meat.

Since the passage by the State Legis-
lature in 1913 Of an act giving single

erty. vesting her with the power to en-
Joy that right and property as against
her husband and al others, there have
been several enactments Of a still more

Of Pennsylvania, decided that married
woman in thai state, may sell or transfer
