THE SHEARS AS AN EDITORIAL
FACTOR.

In a recent issue OF the Journalist
the editor of that valuable paper
takes the ground that the shears are
oftentimes quite as important as the
pencil in the newspaper office.
The editor of the Journalist says
ga good many people do not know
that an editors selection from his
contemporaries are quite often the
best test of his editorial ability, and
that the function of the scissors is
no: merely to fill up vacant spaces,
but to reproduce the brightest and
best thoughts and the most attrac'
tiv. news from all sources at the
editors command. There are times
when the editor opens his exchanges
and finds feast for his eyes, heart
and soul. The thoughts Of his con-
temporaries glow with life.
Gle wishes his readers to enjoy
the feast, and he lovingly takes up
the scissors and clips and clips, and
signs to think that his space is In,
adequate to contain all the treasures
so prodigally spread before him.
Your true editor is generous, and
will sacrifice his own ambition as a
writer during such festal occasions,
and 1t is of far more profit to bis
readers to set before them the origi-
nal dish of danties with the label OF
the real author affixed, than to APP
propriate its best thoughts to hlm~
self, and reproduce them as his own.
After all the true test of a newspa-
per's real value it is not the amount
of original matter it contains, but
the average quality of ali the matter
appearing in its columns, whether
original or selected"
And the editor of the Journalist
is right. Ihe best edited papers are
those that have editors who know
how to use their scissors. Show us
paper whose editor brags that he
does not use the shears and we will
show you paper not worth reading.

CALIFORNIA has struck oil sure

and have suspended work in the

Agent Craig of the Standard Oil
Company has visited the we'll and
examined the oil, which he pros
nounces 81 per cent. This oil is
said to be of o quality superior to
anything ever found on the Pacific
coast. Natural gas also long been
known to exist, and the Los Angeles
people have been driving their en>
gines and drills by the gas that hey

out from crevices and cracks in the
earth. Six carloa Is Of machinery
have already been received. Three
large oil tanks, probably thirty feet
in diameter, such as are used in
Pennsylvania oil fields, are being
erected. About twenty owners in
all are represented. 1t is estimated
that the flow will amount to pre- ba>
bly, ten or twelve barrels day.
Until the tanks are completed and
put in place toe oil will be allowed

pouring out oil like a geyser. This

Rev. A. N. Keigwin, pastor of West
Presbyterian Church, preached an in
teresting sermon on Sunday morning,
to quite large congregation, from
the 9th verse of the 47th chapter of
Genesis: Few and evil have the days
of the years OF my lif been.n In his
PREDATORY remarks he alluded to the
interviews of Jacob with Pharoah, and
referred to the interest that this ruler
manifested In the welfare of his sub
iects. Jacob not only gave Pharoah
the exact number Of the years he had
lived, but homily on sinfulness. He
put the question to each of his hearers:
How old art thou" The length of
life does not depend altogether upon
the number of years lived, but In the
manner in which the time has been
passed.
Time is not a correct measure OF
human life. The good accomplished
is great factor for consideration. He
held that the man who cheated another
Is more to be commlsserated than the
one cheated, as his wrong doing must
weigh tons on his conscience, destroy
ing his peace of mind and making him
miserable. He also referred to friends
that have passed away. The memo
ries Of the good will always be cher
iSilct anu DIbNt IL 5DuTft VI happiness.
He commended honesty and faithful
ness as the secret of success in busi-
ness, as well as informing desirable
character Those who practice them
will be rewarded, The importance of
right doing was enlarged upon, and
all reminded that their acts OF to-day
will mark and control the future. The
old man OF the sea who mounted the
back of Sinbad, the sailor may be com
pared to the memory of wicked actions.
He held that sin left sears on tho
soul that will remain forever. Although
Christ can remove the guilt of sin, and
give happiness through eternity, it
was a mistake in the young to defer
entering upon the service OF God until
they get old. They should begin to
serve God in their youth, and thus
avoid actions that will be remembered
with sorrow. Life is not worth living
unless it is passed in the service OF
God. The heaping up of riches is
small consideration compared with
virtuous deeds and loving disposl-
tion. To be happy next year, you
should begin to-day. He quoted a
poem by Horatio Bonnar, and eonclud-
ed by advising all to endeavor to make
this year bright and beautiful, II they
wished to be happy in eternity.

Down, Jan. 5.-The fun has already
commenced. The early train this
morning brought up the Sussex work
ers in force, as well as several of the
members and applicants. Jewhitakerl
II there's anybody Democratic left
down In Sussex to-day it's because he
missed the train. Applicants for clerk
ships, sergeant-at-arms and flIemen.
There's enough Of them from Sussex
alone to furnish forty legislative out
fits and then there's Kent and New
Castle to hear from yet.
That things will be lively this after
noon and tonight is already assured,
and that when the caucuses adjourn
tonight the cuss words will be piled
knee deep all over the green from the
disappointed applicants is also as
sured.
see no reason yet, even on the eve
of the caucus to change the prediction
made a month ago, that Senator John
z. Donahoe will be the Senate speaker.
1t is said this morning that ex-iov-
einor Hall Is going to make fight for
1t, but the impression Is general that
he has entered the list too late. 1t has
been generally accepted for week
that Ross and Houston, of Sussex,
nbu H,rOtHlStu no VOte IDF senator
Donahoe and that the latter in return
is to give his vote to Ned IIearn, of
Georgetown, for Clerk of the House.
Ii this deal holds good the Senate
caucus will be short and sweet.
But there's likely to lie a picnic in
the House caucus. Nothing is yet
settled, and you can find men this
morning here who are certain that
Ridgely, Morris and Sirinan will each
be speakers, and that Dunn, Hard
castle, Maloney, Boyce and young
Pardee will he clerks. But you can
wager fish ball on one fact, and that
is, if Dan Ridgely goes into that House
caucus tonight To make fight for the
speakershin, he'll win. As to the clerk
ship, well, even the best posted OF the
leaders haven't the least idea this
morning where it will light tonight.
