In the matter of the proposed legis
lation to increase thenumber of members
Of the Street and Sewer Commission we
suppose it is just as well to admit at the
outset that the chief reason for the bill
is the apprehension arising from the
probable use that Mayor Wiley will
make Of his power to appoint a third
member at the expiration of Joseph L
Carpenters term Mayor Wiley does
not possess the confidence of the Dem
ocIats, and If the Republicans love him
the sentiment is beautifully dis guised
The apprehension, put IN plain words. is
that he will appoint an Addieks man
However that may be, he will surely ap
point a Republican possibly ex Chief
Blackburn or one Of the city deteetives)
who is.not only unfit for that Office but
for sny other office. This.is not simplv
the expression Of the EVENING JouRNAti
it's the appre hension Of the people iusti
6ed by the manner in which Mayor
Wiley has conducted his Office. That
is. plain statement Of the reasons
Why the city should not be
exposed to the calamity Of an
appointm mt by Mayor Wiley. In iusti
hcation Of the plan Of reappointing the
old commission there is an equally cogent
series Of arguments which cannot be
elaborated in the limited space Of the

TIE death Of the chief justice forces
us into the anxiety and the embarrass
ment Of making another appointment.
For geographic reasons the appointment
for the present vacancy belongs to New
Castle county. II also belongs to New
Castle county by the custom Of sue
cession which has prevailed in this state
among the three counties ever since the
law went into effect, sixty years ago.
That being the case the first man whose
fitness suggests itself-the man whom
this people delight to honor and Of
whose services they would gladly avail
themselves, is Honorable Charles
B. Lore. In his case there are
no questions Of character, com
potency or experience. They are
all acknowledged Mr. Lore could go
upon the bench as chief justice and
round out useful and admirable career
before this people by whom he has been
known and honored for twenty years Of
public life, full OF action, full Of that sort
Of helpful kindliness, courtesy and con-
sideration for others which has endeared
him to-this people to a greater degree
then any other man who ever lived In II.
That universal judgment Of the people is
the best recommendation that man can
have Of his ability, integrity aud learn
ing--that a lawyer can have Of his fitness
for the bench. Governor Reynolds could
not ask any other endorsement. Char
ley" Lore. as he is stil aifectlonately
called, does not need any other recon.

The Worlds Fair managers of Della.
ware are in hard luck. They asked for
$500 the House cut them down to
$40 600 and yesterday the Senate cut the
amount down to $S, 600 The board has
outstanding debts amounting to So, coo
and this only leaves 50, 600 for the run
uing expenses of the board during the
fair and $600 to be used by Mrs. j.
Frank Ball, of Wilmington, in getting a
display of woman's work
Events in the Senate showed that th
board only has itself to blame for the
legislative action The members were
dissatisfied with the way in which the
; Q 600 appropriated two years ago was
expended They said that more than
one half of the gross amount was spent
for the expenses of the board; that the
board borrowed s ,00D to meet its obliga
iion and in addition to that, had con.
tracted debts amounting to about 81 700
The members of the board tried to
justify these expenditures but the way
n which the Legislature treated them
showed conclusively that they were not
satisfied.
Indeed, the expressions of dissatisfac-
ar Lacey offered his amendment making
the amount $1,000 Senator Piling
tried TO Justify the managers and kill
the amendment, hut he signally failed
The Lacey amendment went through and
for the next six months the managers
will be on short allowances.
