| leave. at this time, to call attention Of our
readers to our city's need for o new
charter, a good sound document, one that
will give the people of New Castle the
| right to regulate their own affairs, and
not make it necessary for us to go to the
| General Assembly for all sorts Of simple
| legislation.
We are as capable of.self government as
any people dare be and, If we want to
boom our town, we must first get her in
| our own hands, so that we can manage
her future without its being necessary las
now is the cuse) for us to ask Kent and
Sussex counties how we shall conduct our
city business. Things that concern us and
US only shall bo left to our own judgment.
Progress and prosperity arc coming and
| meet all opportunities,
Our present charter Is the second oldest
in the State and while an admirable docu-
ment for bygone years, in its way, is
now completely out of accord with tho
times and hindrance instead of help to
us in our march Of progress.
AT the present session both Wilmington
and Smyrna, having felt the need of
changes in their organic law, have ap-
n
needs for such clangCs is even great,r
than those Of our sister towns And
prompt and united action can secure for
Us this great boom.

To Register Milk Cows,

TRENTON, Jan 3O,--An effort will be
made this winter to have law enacted
requiring the registry of all cattle by local
or county boards Of hoalth. The purpose
of this is to make the milk from New
Jersey dairies even more desirable than
at present by enforcing sanitary condi-
tion of COW stables and preventing tho
feeding to cows and certain cattle of un.
wholesome food. The proposed registry
must state the place where the cattle are
kept the number of milk cows and tho
owner must make statement ever year
to the board of health

Beneath tho starry dome Of God.
