AhuAStl+hlo itS'oiAt NHiNu VNhs
The failure Of compulsory education
laws wherever they have been tried does
not discourage the advocates Of compul-
sion. The passage Of such law in this
State now seems probable. Already the
Legislature has made IL compulsory regu-
la.ion with regard to the garb Of teachers
i'll the schools Behind the movement for
compulsory education is the idea that com
pulsory education is equivalent to compul-
sorry morality. The attack on the garb OF
the teacher covers Il furtive attack ON the
teaclicr's creed.
All this tendency toward plternal gov
eminent IS vicious. 1t is not true that edit
cation limits crime, nor that Intolerance
or persecution conserve any public advan.
tase. The liberty of the individual TO do
as he pleases SO long as lie keeps within
the boundary OF his riglt, to think Us llt
pleases. 10 so where he plcases, and Il
worship God as nc pieases, is VI TIL

business has grown SO much in the last
three years, however, that the work was
absolutely necessary to accommodate II.
The biggest job of all was the erection
Of an immense refrigerator in the base
mcnt, which will accommodate two car
loads of provisions. such as salt meats,
lard. &c. The floor space OF the new re-
frigeralor Is j5Xl2 feet in area and the
height is about feet. The walls are II
inches thick. The superintendent Of the
companys building departments Chicago
looked after the work personally aud il
was constructed on the latest plans. The
addition gives the Wilmington house 4
storage capacity of about six car loads OF
meats and provisions.
tn addition to the construction OF the
refrigerator William Simmons put in IN
improved cement floor at q cost OF $40.
The improvements now make The

eight years ago, when only small trade
existed here, and it has grown steadily

The several companies of the Whining
ton Fire Department will be subjected TO
the most rigid test ever held in Whining
ton some time in May. The fire COM
mittee of City Council has come to the
conclusion that tine inspections that have
been made semi-annually are not sufficient
to show i'll what condition the department
really Is. The tiremen are not satisfied,
either. They are anxious to have an OPP
portunitY to show 10 the representatives of
the city government what they can do.
So il has been about settled that thorough
trial will be given to every piece of APP
pnratus, in order that the committee can
make a positive report to Council from
personal knowledge. The method of max
ing the test has not been detinitly arranged,
but the city fathers say that when 1T is
over they will know the exact status of
the Wilmington Fire Department.
The officials of the fire department will
in short time ask the Board of Police
Commissioners to locate fire alarm box
at the corner of Eighth and Orange streets
or in that vicinity. Several fires of manor
importance haze occurred in that locality
within short time and it was more due
ito fortune than anything else that they
were not more serious. A number OF
stables and some valuable buildings are
located in that neighborhood and a fire
might get good start in any one of them
before the nearest box could be reached.
Chief Engineer Walker says that White
chapel is a veritable fire-trap, and the
number of frame structures contiguous.
makes the necessity of a box there impera
tive.
A wrong impression has gotten out that
the city purchased the new chemica
engine, while the truth of the matter i:
that the Washington Co. bought and paic
for ii, and all that the members want the
city to do is to give them an annual ap
preparation of $1,000 for its maintenance.
Chief Engineer Walker and numbe
of other firemen will take trip to New
York about the middle of April for thu
purpose of seeing the manual training eX
hibitions which are made on the ire-boat
of the metropolis.
Assistant Chief Engineer Sasse says tina
false impression exists concerning tht
sending in of fire alarms subsequent to tn,
first. An alarm can be struck by anybody
but second or general alarm has to b.
given by the chief or one of the assistants
as they can only besounded by opening til
inside door, for which there are no key
except those in possession of the officers 0

Prof. Il. L. Thompson OF Philadelphia
delivered the second OF his series Of lee
lures on political economy in the New
Century Club Thursday to small but
appreciative audience. The topic of the
evening was "rhe Economy of Land"
While advocating theownership of land,
he denounced the views of Henry George
as impractieab;c, admitting, however, that
the question OF taxation Is different i'll
city and country. Landed possessions. he
said, were not necessarily wealth. Value
in land, like everything else, depends on
labor and settlers in new States despite
their homesteads often suffered from tho
necessaries of life. Land thus obtained
was the highest priced III the market. The
greatest document on the subject of
sociology in the world is found in the
Book Of Genesis. where was found the
source and progress Of civilization. The
first type of man was Nimrod, the hunter,
and the second Jacob, the shepherd. The
first property troubles arose from the
hunters invading the tlocks of the shep-
herds, and this assumed ownership was
the origin of law, The Mosaic idea of u
strong state was in the dividing of land
into severalties, although there was no
such thing us lawful buying under the
Mosaic system.
