1t is remarkable that, although
new fruits come to the front every
year, there is not pear yet that has
been able to take the place of the
Bartlett or the Seckel. The Bartlett
is European sort, originating in
England and named there William
Bon Chretien. 1t was introduced in
to this country, and its name getting
lost, it was named Bartlett, after
the man in whose garden 1t was
when its excellent qualities were dis
covered. The Seckel is q native, a

kinds are no exception to the rule
that the quality of all pears increases
in value as the trees get oldcr. The
fruit from a full-grown Seckel pear
tree, for instance, is far superior to
that from tree fruiting for the first

THE organs and the orators Of the Re.

point out many reforms the Republican
Levy Court accomplished, though Il went

body Of partisan incompetents that ever
sat in New Castle county. We have no
illfeeling toward the members, person
ally, for Il is not so much their fault as
the fault of their political principles and
the direful exigencies Of Higgins'sm.
But they go out Of Office with great
deal Of the same contempt that is be-
slowed upon Mahaify, Bach Stewart
and Macallister. who have used
their offices not only with
unfairness, but with the most obnoxious
partisanship. There is no reason why

than Mehaify and the other crowd, but
they will be remembered even by the

THE women of France have caught the

with the same hysteric energy that wo-
men employ here. Several weeks ago La

curious injustice aud Inconsistency TO
recommend their claims the American

HuMlLIATlNe COMMISSIONS.

The well-nigh universal cry: "Repea
the Sherman act. Stop buying silver
shows the quality Of financial and eco.
nomic legislation which a once great
party has been giving us. That act was
passed only two years ago; Senator John
Sherman is the ablest of all Republicans; I;
he is regarded as the ablest fnancier in
that party and one of the coolest an ID
shrewdest statesmen in IT, That party
has been arrogating TO itself all the
wisdom and patriotism Of the country
and has laid particular stress upon its
skill in finance Referring to the finan.
cial condition of the country with an
empty Treasury and the rapidly increas
ing pension list the Philadelphia Ledger
says:
The silver producers said, through
their senators and representatives in
Congress, as a reason for the passage Of
the Sherman act, that, by such an easy
simple device of Legislation as that, silver
and gold, two metals of different market
value, could and would be kept at par.
| ity. At the same time these owners of
the gulches took good care that the com
modify they dealt IN should be bonght
and paid for by the government with
Treasury notes, payable in gold.
That is a confession that. like the Nc
Kinley law, the Sherman act was passed
at the demand of the few beuefcaries
not in the interest of the people. The
Ledger says
Such a policy as this is not wise or
safe 1t is unwise and full of peril. II
the Government is really the paternal
thing that the silver producers insist
it is and II it must support them and
not they IL, then it will be wiser and
safer for the Government to buy their
mines and gulches outright giving them
virtually any price, however extrava.
giant, they may see fit TO ask for them
and operate them itself
The same Is true of the tin plate legis-
lation; the Government should have
bought the tin mines and the tin-plate
plants of Wales 1t had the same right
to do that directly as TO impose taxes on
the people to buy them indirectly. Then
confessing again the Ledger says
Today public and private credit is
maintained inviolate only by the faith oil
the people In their own strength and il
their power TO discard any economic OF
financial policy which has been tried ant
found bad. They demand now the re
peal of the Sherman act which has beer
tried and found bad, and IL will go har,
with their servants in Congress IL thei
demand does not receive prompt atten
tion.
That is too true. The condition Of th
Treasury is worse than It was at an,
time when we were maintaining half
million men in the field and waging th
, most gigantic and costly war ever known
This is no fancy picture; it is the humil
iating confession of an editor who ha
supported the party which deliberately
with malice aforethought, put tn

and venal elements which could eve
