OUR merchants complain about the
many bad debts on their books, for
which they deserve some cOmmisera-
tion. They are Of a somewhat varied
character. Some are of the profession
al dead-beat kind, whom no merchant
should trust without good security.
Others are of the happy.go-lucky sort
who are honest within certain bounds,
and will pay II everything prospers
with them, and they will live we'll to-
day without q care foF the morrow,
but they will never undergo self-de-
NAL to do 1t. Others are those that
the merchants themselves are answer
able for. They sre so anxious to do
business that when they get a custom
er who buys an article or two and pays
for them, they coax him 10 buy more
until he thinks he is doing them a
favor to buy.

BISHOP Leighton Coleman, of the
Diocese of Delaware is u man of Obser-
walton. and very naturally he is watch
ing the course of things in his diocese.
He has especially been noticing the
tendency of things in Wilmington, and
claims he has special cause for deplor-
ing the many and diverse injuries done
to the commonwealth by reason of the
temptations to strong drink. In a
recent communication in the Morning
NeaOs in which he pointed out the great
peril in which the homes of Whining
ton are from the increase in the num-
Der of saloons, he says:
cannot go into an elaborate state
ment as to the injury done to the COM
mOnwealth. But it is only necessary to
consider the enormous number of
deaths and sickness directly and indi-
rectly attributed to drunkenness, also
of crimes so attributable, the expenses
entailed upon the community from the
same cause in the maintenance of the
police, jails, lunatic asylums and aims

trade of so much of the earnings Of
every other trade-tO see that the
gain is to the few and loss to the
many.
And yet there are those who would
still further increase this already dis,
graceful dispropriatiOn by enlarging
the number of saloons.
Once more implOre them to with.
hold their signatures and influence
from those who, for their own profit
only, are constantly besieging oul
courts for licenses. And l would like
wise implOre those who are not dis
posed to render such aid to come on
more boldly against such proceedings
As it is now, the work of remOnstranc
and prevention is too much left to
few in the community. 1t is a work G
some peril and of certain amount G
misunderstanding, misrepresentation
and ill-will.
But no matter what danger or incOr
venience may be involved, it shout
not take a real patriot very long to d.
eide where to take his place. A
against the pelf of the interested ind
vidual-which is sapping the very -four
dations of all true principles of ecOl
omy-he will stand for the wealth an
goodwill of the multitude.

seems to be under the impression that
flies are migratory, and like the swal-
lows, 60 down to the tropics for the
winter and return in the spring. Un-
der the head of "Flies have Moved
South" the NelOs has the following
people who have recently been il
the southern part of Delaware, report
that flies have not disappeared from
that part of the state despite the ap-
proach of cold weather. They left
Wilmington several weeks ago. In
Milford there are hundreds of them
left, and other towns are as bad. 1t IL
believed that the canning factories in
Kent aud Sussex counties, which are
just closing down for the season, are
responsible for the long stay Of the flies
