President Harrison's last annual mes
sage was given to congress on Tuesday
of this week. The document 'sa lengthy
one, containing exhautive references to
work of the different departments dur
ing the administration. The president
closes follows the progress Of the coun
try through the past three or four years
and by the use of statistics clearly shows
that each successive season has witness
ed increased general prosperity. He
warmly endorses the protective system
of the republican party, but does not argue
the question. He recognizes that the
people declared against it at the last
election, and suggests that the revision
of the tariff laws be left to the congress
elected at that time. And concluding
his remarks on that subject says: 'The
friends Of the protective system, with
undiminished confidence in the prin-
cipes they have advocated, will await

Georgetown is in danger Of losing its
hosiery factory, because it cannot supply
the hands necessary TO run it. This has
called forth the following editorial from
the Sussex Journal
"The owners of the hosiery factory, in
this town, are said to be considering the
advisability of moving il to Wilmington
on account of the fact that they cannot
get hands enough to run it here. They
want fifty more hands now, and
are ready to put in machines
for hundred more, if the
hands can be secured. The citizens Of
Georgetown and the board of trade
should use every effort to keep this fac
tory in our town.
II should never be allowed to leave
for want of hands The town should be
ransacked from center to circumference
and the cities should be searched and
advertisements should be sent out and
agents appointed TO secure help, if these
steps become necessary to keep the fac,
tory here What is to be done should be
done before It is too late. A
meeting of the board Of trade was
held on Wednesday night, but no definite
action was taken because it was not GER
