E. Ellery Anderson, prominent Demo-
cratic lawyer of New York city, member
of Tammany hall, but strongly opposed to
David B. Hill and all his works, recently
appeared before the New York Senate
committee on cities and opposed the Tam
many scheme to change the boards of cleo
ton inspectors in the city of New York
from non-partisan to Democratic bodies.
'The elections in New York are honestly
conducted" said Mr.. Anderson, land 1
think that even Republicans will admit
that their votes, for many years, have
been counted as cast. What, then, is the
need of this bill? Why should Demo-
Gratis favor it? If passed, it will be
charged that the Democratic party
seeks to gain some advantage by
it in the counting OF votes. 1t
will be suspected that there is plot to de-
fraud the Republican party, or, perhaps,
some local Democratic organization hos
tile to Tammany Hall. Such an impress
sion would do the Democratic party great
harm. Why, gentlemen, what enabled
Roswell p. Flower to carry this state by
such large majority as $1,000 votes2 1t
was the stay-at-home Republicans. Pass
this bill and you will arouse them. and
bring them unanimously to the polls this
fall. They will believe that you intend to
cheat the people of this state by falsely
counting the presidential vote in New
York city; and, in my judgment, you will
lose the state. Nothing could be more in
furious to the Democratic party than
general impression that it's leaders in New
York city intend to make false count of
the votes cast there next November and
the following years"

Julian Ralph is one Of the best known news

Complaints Made Against Practice in
Vogue at West Junction.

The custom of the freight trains Of the
Baltimore and Ohio iailroad running up
the Landenberg branch at West Junction
and blocking the crossing Of the Newport
pike is habit of which the residents Of
that section of the county are becoming
tired.
Almost every night freight train is
drawn up the branch to allow passenger
trains on the main line TO pass. Some
times these trains remain on the cross
ing Of the pike for nearly an hour and
are not uncoupled in order to allow
travellers on the pike to pass. When
the occupants of the vehicles that are
compelled to stop appeal to trainmen
little satisfaction is obtained Com
plants of this nature have been made
on several occasions.
On Thursday evening, a man having
to do an errand in Newport proceeded
toward that town until he reached the
crossing Of the Baltimore and Ohio rail.
road at this point. A train was stand
ing here to allow the Royal Blue" leav-
ing this city at 2. 80 to pass. He waited
about one-half hour and, finding that the
trainmen had no intention of "cutting"
the train, he appeared TO the conductor
and he gave orders to unconDle
The pike in question is a very import
ant thoroughfare and such delays to the
travelling public should be stopped. The
officers Of the company are likely not
aware of this fact but it is hoped they
will take some action in the matter.

production of "The Family Circle" at the

was good one and deserved better
patronage than it received here. Young
Loves Dream" was given as curtain
raiser in which the two infant prodigys,
Master Wallie Eddinger and little Ethel
Black were the hero and heroine respec-
lively. Master Wallie's impersonation
of the ardent lover was excellent and
received much applause The work Of
Ethel was also good. The plot of THE
Family Circle is a funny story of a
family that got things badly tangled up
but which were explained to the salts
