TUE PRESENT Levy Court Is composed
of six Republicans and five Democrats,
but it is doubtful II there was ever a
Lcvy Court in New Castle County
unanimously Of one party or the other
that ever got along more agreeably,
and that ever looked more carefully
after the interests OF tho county. The
court is entirely without u boss" to
whom, as in other days. all had to go
for counsel, and whose word had to
be law. There Is no more wiping of
lips as members enter the doors as in
other days, and the maudlin oath of
the drunken bravado Is heard no
more. Every man Of the Levy Court
is a gentleman OF Intelligence and
needs not To be told what to do and
what not to do by laRh cracking boss
The county was never better taken
care of, nor the people better served
than now, and yet in the light OF the
present day there is no need for such
large body to do the work that three
men could do as well. County Com.
missions must come, but let them
come right from the people and at the
| right time. That Is all.

The Bill to permit tho Board OF
Health OF Wilmington to elect lis own
Secretary has had remarkable ex-
perienee in tho legislature. 1t was In
troduced in the Senate early in the
session and for long time lay pigeon
holed in that body. William II. Lee
was opposed to the passage OF the bill
and he stood nearly alone In his oppos-
ition. He very naturally would be op-
posed to it as he was the secretary OF
the board at times when hecould spare
time from fine political work to at
tend to 1t. If the bill in question were
to become law the Board would ap.
POINT its own secretary and Mr.. Leo
had reason to believe that he would
not be the man selected. To counterfeit
this movement, Mr.. Lee had another
bill prepared naming five Democratic
Office holders az new board OF health
and tried to have that put through in
stead of the one allowing the present
30 ard TO elect It's own secretary.
1t was to MIR. Lees interest to have
this done. But this bill has not been
re ceiyed with favor while, the other
has. Tho bill that Mr.. Lee opposed
went through the Senate unanimously,
after number OF amendments tack
ed TO 1t by Mr.. Lee had been rejected
as unanimously. The bill was then
taken over to the other House for
action. It was there promptly pigeon
holed and remained so ever since until
day before yesterday. Shortly after
the bill was taken to the House a sig
niticant expires sion was found In the
correspondence from Dover to n Demo-
cratic paper of this city. The express
sion was that Mr.. Leo said: 1.-THE bill
was lost and would never be heard
from again" 1t was not stated whether
the bill had been brought before. the
House and defeated in the regular way
or whetherit had been blown out of
the window or dropped into n rat-hole.
1t was simply lost and for a long
time it looked as IL this were really
true, as Mr.. Lee is one of the few trust.
ed men who has access to all papers in
the Legislature, and he ought to know
lie is, however, little shy of the
Senate since Speaker Donahoe threat
enod TO eject him. But then the
Speaker is little hasty at times and
cart always appreciate exalted worth
land merit. But hunt was instituted
for the missing bill, not "bill" Lee fol
he was always on hand. 1t could not
be found anywhere. "a bill lost" re
sounded through the capitol, but the
bill" that was not lost kept on enroll
ing bills without alarm. He knew h,
was innocent, that was enough. May
he ever keep his escutcheon clear
Word Was sent to this city that thu
bill was lost. A duplicate was prepar
ed and sent down to Dover yesterday
but before it reached tho Legislative
halls the missing bill turned up witt
tho information that 1t was In tn,
hands of the Committee on Municipal
Corporations and never had been lost

The Mayors Inaugural Address.


Tho tone of Mayor McDonough's in
augural address is admirable. He speaks
like man who fully appreciates the respon-
sibilities OF the position and intends to
prove that he is equal to them. His ex-
pressed purpose is to make Savannah law
abiding and law-respecting city. He can
rest assured that he will have the support Of
every good citizen.
The ordinance relative to the closing of
saloons on Sundays is to be strictly en-
forced. The enforcement of this ordinance
will mark new era in the history of Savan-
nah. The sale of whisky on Su udays is pro-
duolive of many evils. 1t not only gets
men into trouble aud units them for follow
ing their occupations steadily, but it is a
constant temptation to them to waste the
money Of which their families stand so
greatly in need.
For years in this city there has been more
disorder on Sundays than on other days Of
the week. That this is true the police
records will show. And there is no ether
reason why Sundays should be days of dis
order than that there is moro whisky drink
ing on those days. Idle men seek the grog-
shops, and before they are aware of it they
are IN condition 20 become dlsturbers of
the peace. 1t is sincerely to be hoped that
the mayor will succeed in putting an end
to Sunday whisky selling,
And the mayor speaks strongly in favor
of clean streets and the enforcement of san
| itary regulations. 1t is certainly time the
people were required to pay stricter atten-
ton to sanitary matters and to observe the
ordinances relative to garbage A great
| deal of garbage matter that ought to be put
into receptacies provided for it is thrown
| into the streets and lanes, giving them a
dirty and unsanitary appearance, and not
as much attention is given to keeping closets
in good condition as there ought to be. To
all of these matters the mayor promises to
give his attention.
And there is another reform which the
poses to put stop to the use Of profane
language in the streets The use of such
language in public places has become alto
! gether too common, and IL is a source OF
satisfaction that the mayor recognizes it as
an evil to be abated.
In his short address the mayor SAYS a
great deal. He seems to be profoundly in
earnest in bis promise to deal strictly and
justly with all classes of the people, and to
show favoritism to none. And he wants the
city to prosper. He knows that good NUM-
| cipal government will do as much as any
thing else to make it prosperous. II is the
duty of every citizen to hold up the mayors
hands In the line he has marked out.
