The Augmentation for Navigation.

The small amount of work done
for the size of the appropriations that
have been made by Congress, has been
a considerable surprise to more than
one person, in the dredging of Smyrna
river. A partial explanation may be
found in the work pertaining to Will
mington, as will appear in the follow
ing from the Republicans:
"There should be some lucid expla-
nation or why the expenses of the Of
flee of General Smith should eat up
thrity-five per cent. of the appropria-
tiOn for dredging the harbOr. Because
man has been n soldier is no reason
why he should be allowed to settle
down in our midst and act the part of
czar, and when called upon for the
explanation as to the why's and where
fOres be unable to give one, and thus
show himself incompetent to hold the
position in which circumstances have
seen fit to place him. All our citizens
want is something to show for the
money spent on our river and creek.
PrOcrastination as we have remarked
before, is the thief of time and great
waste of money"
Smyrna times., 1897-08-18

THE Milford Chronicle made the
charge that RObt. G.. Houston, on the
Boilers ticket and who ran for Con-
gress last year because Addicks endor-
fHEe other ticket, had, when on the
sot for Representative to the Della
ware Legislature, used 81, 900 of Ad-
dicks money for election purposes.
There was a natural interest to
know what Mr.. Houston would say
in the Sussex Republican on Saturday,
in defence Of the position, which, ac-
cOrding to another paper, is very much
akin to what the lawyers call "plea
Of confession or avoidance" Mr..
Houston does say that "the insinua-
tion cast on him is untrue and while
he does not claim to be without fault,
declines to further continue a contro-
versy, the only object Of which is to
blacken character" According to
politicians way of looking at things,
the use Of money could not have been
entirely right in one case, and en-
tirely wrong in another. 1t puts Mr..
Houston in a hole. The use of money
has been the method for years, the
difference between Mr.. Addicks and
his Democratic and Boilers opponents
being, that his pocket was the deepest.
That was all the difference, except that
his opponents had the machinery,
which was more powerful and corrupt
than all Addicks' money. If Addicks
drove the politicians, through fear of
getting hold of their machinery, to
give MS a new constitution, as is ad-
mitted, then on the principle ''that the
end iustifies the means" Mr.. Addicks
mnst have the quasi endorsement Of
all persons who are looking forward to
the fair elections the new constitution
is to give us. Are we on the eve of
purer elections? II so, Addickaism
and the Machinery, reeking with cor
ruption, must go.

Tomato Canning.

The canning of tomatoes does not
promise to be the crowded industry it
was six and eight years ago, when by
excess of production our Gamers, in
the height of the season, were forced to
run night and day to keep up. The
"blight," which seems to prevail in
every community where the fruit is
grown in large quantities for CONNER
cial purposes, set in with us three
years ago, and is no less this, under
the peculiar conditions of the season
for fostering it. Added to this have
been the severe storms, which have
beaten and twisted the vines, and by
depOlenizing the blossoms, prevented
at certain seasons the setting of the
young fruit. Some of the more fav-
Ored patches may do well, but with
many it will be equivalent to failure,
so the growers say. Yet we hope our
Gamers may have a good and above all,
a profitable season.

Liverpool, London, Paris and Ant
werp. The quotation for ''cash wheat,
No. Northern, was 94a cents, against
800 cents a month ago and 60 cents
year ago.
The prices of stocks also advanced:
A broker on the Stock Exchange puts
the situation in this way: "a good
crop here and light crop abroad, with
resulting enormous exports, mean that
we shall get in this country 800, ,OOO,-
600 foreign gold in the course of the
coming year. Then, too, we have not
been creating securities. Values have
been increasing even while prices have
declined. Our best railway stocks will
go up as English rails have advanced.
Some day London will wake up to the
fact that it has lost a great opportunity
to make money, and it will buy back
some of the millions of securities it has
shipped to this country in the last five
years. With securities going out and
gold coming in; with earnings increas-
ing and the supply of stock decreasing,
you will see conditions that can have
but one result in prices"
Henry Clews, a well-known leading
New York broker, puts the condition
in this way:
LOndOn's Obstinacy in holding aloof
from buying our stocks will prove a
sorry thing for it. The market will be
held up on this side until London be-
comes a buyer on large scale. Lon
don began to sell our stocks at the
time of the Barring failure in 1890 on
the fear that we were going to drift to a
silver basis. Englishmen have been
harping on the need of currency reform
ever since, and they make no allow
ance for what has taken place since in
that direction. What was the passage
of theSherman Silver law but currency
reform? What is the passage of the
recent Tariff act, which will make the
Government a surplus revenue Gov
ernment instead of deficient one, but
currency reform? What is more i'm
pOrtant than anything else in the sit
uatiOn, which they fail to recognize,
is the return of prosperity in this
country, which will put money into
everybOdy's pocket, and when that oc-
ours Americans will banker after the
best money and not the poorest. SO,
whenever called upon to vote, Ameri-
cans will vote for gold money and not
silver money. What stands stronger
for currency reform than such an atti-
tude of the American people? With
the changed conditions that have taken
place of late, Our mOney-c considering
the vast resources of this Nation which
backs it's as good as any money in
circulation in any country. In the
last four years we have gone through
pretty rigid currency reform measure es,
and London will begin to realize this
by and by after our securities have gone
considerable higher, and accept the in
| evitable and become as crazy to buy as
it has been crazy to sell them contin-
uously since 1890, at the time of the
Barring panic.

Imposing Fines.

We referred in our last issue to the
exorbitant fine imposed on two boys
in Clayton for fast bicycle riding. 1t
seems that the constable making the
arrests gets half the fine ($2 5O) the
town treasurer the other half, while
the costs go to the legal officers. There
seemed to be some vigilance there in
carrying out the ordinances. One of
these is that the cattle roaming at
large can be taken up. One day last
week a COW which had been carried to
a new home beyond the town, broke
lose and passed through Clayton in her
effort to regain her former home. The
officer saw and impounded the animal,
the owner having to pay $1.5O to have
her released, and this was the most
generous disposal of the case, for
otherwise the cost would have been
about double.
Smyrna times., 1897-08-18

The Philadelphia Times of Saturday
in closing a long editorial on the sill
yer question said:
''The silver craze has certainly run
its course, for there is no argument
against the resistless logic of stubborn
facts. Silver has ceased to be an in
dispensible circulating medium save as
subsidiary coin. 1t might be made the
basis of a paper circulation at its in
trinsic value and that would be honest
but no increase in the silver circula-
ton can be made in this country, for
the simple reason that the most bla-
tant Populist will not accept it as
money. OF the nearly 45O, 900, 900 of
legal tender dollars coined by the gov
ernment, there are but $4,000, 600 in
circulation as money, and it is limited
even with all the efforts of the govern
ment to put it into circulation"
