THE speech made by Francis H.
Hoffecker at the Sons of Delaware
banquet in Philadelphia was an elo-
quent effort, and its intense patriotism
is characteristic of the speaker. His
theme was permeated with that lofty
pride of State, and of our men who are
famous in the history of the nation.
His plel for the maintenance of the
high standard of our States representa-
tives in the National Congress, must
have stirred his hearers. His appeal
for purer politics was couched in strong
and forceful terms, and such senti-
ments so we'll expressed will have an
influence for good throughout the
whole State.

THE Delaware Ledger is a newspa.
per published at Newark. 1t is one
of those newspapers that are about hall
and half. Those who read its editorials
before and after the nomination OF
Samuel Bancroft, Jr., have sufficient
proof of this. Sometime ago the
TRANSCRIPT spoke of the "lying Dem
ocratic press" The first and onlyDem
ocrat paper that took this up, land by its
squeel indicated that the shoe pinched
was this same paper of Newark. Now
if we had accused the whole Dem
ocrat press of lying, we might reason
ably have expected a howl from all
over the state, but when we simply
referred to the lying part of it, we had
no idea that our friend would so soon
give evidence that he considered HIM
self as belonging to that category.

tion Of the Democratic press above

fence at our hands, his success in life

the position he occupies in the estima-

WHERE WOMEN ARE WANTED.

Ds
The Woman's Association for the
Improvement of Public Education, is
a new organization in New York City
whose primary object is the bettering
of the Public Schools. The intelligent,
refined, and educated women of the
great metropolis are proving their 10y
atty to municipal reform movements,
by their readiness to do practical work
in the fields olen to them.
Mayor-elect Strong, who is known,to
approve of women in politics and mu-
nicipal government, having expressed
himself especially as favoring a We
man at the head of the Street Cleaning
Department, will, in all probability
appoint women members of the Board
of Education, where they have served
acceptably during the terms of several
Of his predecessors. But Mayor Gil
roy had too high a regard for women
to see them in public office, ,and thus it
was that those who we're in office when
he became mayor were not re appointed.
Women can be especially useful az
members of the Board of Education.
They know more Of the training of
children, will look more carefully into
sanitary conditions, are not so apt to
be influenced by political or social
affiliations, and since more than nine
tenths of the teachers are women it is
natural and right that there be women
on the Board.
New York City is a good place to
begin school reforms if the periodicals
are to be relied upon as giving correct
reports of their condition. But not
only in New York but elsewhere ale
women needed on Boards of Education.
The place to SOW the seed which will
ripen into rich fruitage of good citi-
zsnship is the public schools. Women
properly represented on the Boards of
Education, will work for such legisla-
tlon as will best develop the mental
and physical powers of the pupils, and
secure to teachers salaries that will
not onlyenable them to live properly
but save something for old age.
