EVERY EVENING VS.. SHERIFF AND
LEVY COURT

LEVY COURT.
The Morning News this morning hits
the nail squarely on the head. II says;
Every ybody knows that II Sheriff Allen
had selected the Every Evening in which
to print his advertisements OF sales, in
stead Of the EVENING JOURNAL, and II
the Levy Court had paid the Every
Evenings fantastic and excessive detect
i've bill of $1,000, New Castle county
would never have heard a word from the
Every Evening about reducing the rate
for feeding prisoners under which Mr.
All'n entered Office, and its zeal for
reforming the Levy Court would have
been as thin as a feecy cloud sauntering
along the sky on clesr day.
This is the whole thing In a nutshell
and explains, in addition to its attacks
upon the Levy Colrt and sheriff, the
Every Evenings recent cowardly assault
upon the EVENING JOURNAL. The Every
Evening is nothing If not pusillanimous.
But the Morning News also claims
chat the Every Evening Is Democratic
paper, and that the movement against
the Levy Court and Sheriff, fathered
by the Every Evening, is Demo
cratic movement We deny this and
assert that the movement is a purely
an Every Evening affair, actuated en-
tirely by motives Of selfshness, jealously
and revenge. We also deny that the
Every Evening is a Democratic paper or
ever was one. It never claimed to be one
and is quoted "IDdependant' by the
newspaper advertising agencies.
Until the EVENING JOURNAL took up
the cause, the Democratic party never had
a daily exponent of its principles--a
paper which stands for no man or faction,
but speaks for the whole Democratic
party.
But we must not be misunderstood as
opposing needed reforms; we wish to see
honest reforms only. 1t was clearly
shown by the speakers at the meeting on
Wednesday evening at the Young
Mems Democratic Club that the
machinery Of the Levy Court
was ancient and cumbersome,
but It was also proven that when the
Democratic Senate proposed reform that
was honest and practical the Republican
House would not hear Of it.
Now let us find out Just
what reforms are needed and
then REFORM for the good Of the
people and for the sake Of honest reform
and not TO gratify the petty pite Of
Every Evening or any one else.

what We Are An rnlE,nr Ahnnt

Two pretty girls were overheard, by
accident, discussing the relative merits
and demerits Of kisses. One, whose full,
red lips part temptingly. vowed there
was nothing like long. soul-stiring
meeting Of lips, while the other, whose
mouth was not so large, nor the scarlet
ligs so full declared that she preferred
II short and sweet" that long kiss
caused her to lose her breath. and that 1t
vas extremely unpleasant. A serious
debate then followed. during which all
manners and modes Of kissing were
taken into consideration, aud it ended by
both unanimously expressing the opinion
that a mustache enhanced the value and
beauty, and added lingering sweetness
to the soul nj kiss that nothing else
could initiate or replace.

REv a. 9. BRUINS Of New Brunswick,
N u, has resigned. In taking leave Of
his people he wrote: II will allow no
member Of my church, be it he or she,
black or white. to use me for a pin
cushion or foot ball !" This simple and
erphatic announcement Of Independence
and self respect ought to recommend Mr..
Bruins to some more appreciative eongre-
cation Of All people in the community.
certainly the preacher should not suffer
from the Inconvenience Of pin pricking or
the indignitY Of foot bali kicking
Within the last twenty years, or since
Bulwer's fame as novelist
and the influence OF his ''Kenelom
Chillingly" declined, muscular Chris
tianity has waned in popularity. Tn.
preachers have never taken kindly to the
noble art OF self-defeAce and the expe.
riences and character OF Professor Sulli-
van have not recommended the art in =
winsome manner. The Kentucky idea
never did, and never will. gain q numer
Gus or wealthy following among tn,
preachers. They manifest a strong aver
sion to cold lead OF glittering steel. They
prefer to be burned, TO suffer from trAv.
sling bronchitis, or to join another church
Thus it seems that the preachers, who's,
tender sensibilities win not allow
them to be pricked. and whose divin,
>lgnity will not submit to the indignit,
Of kicking, have no other resource thar
than to initiate the example of Mr.
Bruus and resign. They should decline
TO become pincushions or foot balls.

THE stately, old-maidish debate OF
gingerly tripping spinsters holding up
their divided skirts and revealing crooked
and thin ankles now proceeding between
the Every Evening and the Morning
News is humorous and ineffective. They
stand far away and look at each other
like two old maids pointing guns which
they are afraid to FIRE. They both shut
their eyes and prepare to run. One says;
The Morning News sneeringly impHgns.
The other replies:
This is awful.
So the debate proceeds. Fortunately
the old muskets are not charged, so that
the bonneted duelists are not likely to
hurt each other or to wound anybody who
happens to pass that way.
