Ing resolutions, ys st,f. 81
aWhereas, There has been introduced
In the General Assembly Of the State OF

postpone the Wilmington city election
until the general election Of 1898, whereby
the present inoumbents may continue to
hold their Offices for term TO which they
were not elected by the people, and,
"Whereas, Such action on the part Of

the people who elected them, and detri-
mental to the interests Of the Democratic
party; therefore, we, the members Of the

that the people OF the city should decide
for themselves, In an election, as to whom
they desire to serve them as city officials,

measure passing said body.
Therefore. Be 1t resolved by this league

and unreasonable the proposed scheme for
the reason that 1t legislates In office for

BE 1t further resolved that while this
league is In favor Of the perpetuation Of
Democratic principles as the best means
Of giving to the people the very best gov

not in favor Of keeping In Office persons
who were not elected thereto by the peo-

SPORTING NEWS,

Before the Tuxedo Club in Philadelphia
last night Jack DAILY defeated Strauss.
Had DAILY beer willing to risk his maules
which were injured a short time ago. hu
would have made his victory more decisive
As it was, he established beyond doubt
the fact that strauss isn't even OH the last
row Of first class good boxers, Once Or
twice he landed on Days face, but he re.
turn he got for it. put his bniance on tho
wrong side of the ledger, In the first
round DAILY started right in with his left
and drove Strauss clear across the stage
The latter was knocked down twice dur.
ing the round In the second round
DAILY started in on Strauss smcllrr and
had it rosy in short order. Strauss got in
several lcfts, but they didn't amount to
much. DAILY ended the round with three
succcssiv iabs on Iky's nose.
In the next rOund some one told Strauss
that Daly's hands were weak, and he start
ed after Jack. The latter stepped back,
came forward with both wings working
and Strauss went up against the ropes and
tried to climb over but the referee called
them both TO the centre. Strauss rushed
and landed light left on Days chin. He
received jab on his sore nose for his pains.
DAILY took things ra. her easy in the next
round and allowed Strauss TO get near.
Jack was CVldentally saving his hands, for
he left several good chances 20 past but
he managed to keep his end up by manip-
ulating his very clever left to Strauss dis,
comfort Strauss had pretty much all he
could do to stand the pace DAILY set in the
next two rounds, and in the iilth he went
through the ropes, after which he seemed
to have even more respect for DAILY and
Kept away until the bell rang. In the last
round DAILY sailed in and landed at will
on strauss, who lost quite a lot Of clnrct,
which tllck!ed from his sore buglc. Be.
fore the round ended Strauss made several
Intellectual attempts to land on DAILY, who
was just few too many for him The
referees decision in favor Of DAILY found

New Haven. March 26.-Mrs. Orville
Percival found her S9-year-old hus-
band unconscious in a shed at their
home, at Moodus, and hastily called for
aid The neighbors were surprised and
shocked to discover that the old mans
trouble was caused by starvation. He
and his wife had been for weeks without
enough food to keep up their strength.
They said nothing about their desti-
tute condition. Assistance was given
them and Mr.. Percival revived. The
neighbors will now see that the old
people have enough to eat.

Now jerseys Naval Reserves May Survive

Trenton, March 26-The bill intro
duced in the house Wednesday by
Leader Derousse to disband the naval
reserves met its death yesterday after
noon by the striking out of the enact
ment clause The joint committee on
appropriations, who took the initiative
in the matter Of disbanding the re-
serves, by refusing to make any appro-
priation for them, will give a hearing
on Monday on the question of making
an allowance in the appropriation bill
for the reserves The house adopted a
resolution to have the legislature ad-
journ sine die next Wednesday. The
senate will undoubtedly concur in the
resolution.

The Constitutional Convention has
passed the resolution to increase the mum
Der Of Senators to II, and tho number of
Representatives to 80, to be elected by
districts, but it neglected to name the
number from each county and also to
specify the boundaries Of the districts.
This is an omission that should DO repair
cd, as the Democrats would be certain to
lay out the districts in such manner as
to preclude oil hope of the Republicans
ever obtaining majority in the Legisla.
tnre. We bad better have e commission
appointed to frame our laws than to place
this gpowcr in the hands Of unscrupu-
lous politicians and we arc surprised that
any Republican should vote for such u
provision. The proposed construction of
the District for the election Of members of
the Levy Court show what the party is
capable of doing, and therefore II there
should be election by Districts, the Con-
vention should define the mete, and
bounds Of the same
Another thing, the Convention should
apportion the Senators and Representa-
tives to the different counties. To say
that Wilmington shall have only two
Senators and the balance Of the county
five, while Kent and Sussex shall each
have five, is hardly ju ticc The same
may be said Of the House, it is very I'M
equal apportionment to allow KenL and
Sussex ami rural Now Castle county each
ten members and Wilmington only five.
THE Methodists of New .Iorsuy. at least
those of the New Jersey Conference, which
Is now in session at Trenton, are opposed
to the marriage license and yesterday saw
the beginning of bitter opposition to the
Lloyd Marriage Bill, which provides for
the payment of fee of So The majority
OF the members Of the Conference were of
the opinion that under the laws of States
which require license fec, couples were
living together because Of that fee.
Such may be the moral condition of a
certain class in almost every community,
but vice will continue and the conditions
will exist, even though q marriage fec is
exacted. Parties would then b. so mean
they would not want to allow the imam
Of the cloth anything for his services.
1t strikes us as being poor argument
against the passage of the bill By the New
Jersey Legislature but in State whore
race track outlaws have been allowed full
sway, there need BE- no surprise If the
same State opens its manscs to couples
who are after a bargain marriage which
would forever cast stain upon their
welded life

The effect Of the Wilson tariff on the

from the fact that in 1898, tho year after
the enactment of the Mckinley law, their
value was estimated at So, 4s3, 5O6, 66l, being
on increase Of $l50, 600 900 in the past year,

The assertion of the Democrats that the
Mckinley tariff was failure as pro-
Queer of revenue, is not borne out by facts.
On examination Of the workings OF the
Mckinley law, it is found from the date
of It's enactment, Oct /, 1899, to the date
Of the meeting of Congress which passed
the Wilson tariff, the receipts under the
Mckinley act were $l451j 1873 in excess of
expenditures of the Government, thus
creating a surplus, but its influence was
badly crippled us soon as the Wilson bill
was introduced, as every importer expect
ed lower duties, and stopped importing to
great extent, causing Il deficit in n very
short period. Tho loss By the discussion
and passage Of tho Wilson Hill can never
be properly estimated and he who defends
and labors for the continuance Of the Will
son bill must lack common scn,e.

get his article and read it and then lend
it to his friends. l have converted
many of my Republican neighbors by
lending it to them and talking it over
with them until they understood it, The
railroad question is an important one
more important in my judgment than
the silver question-and should be
studied and pushed to the front by
every Populist.
This question was ignored in the last
campaign; it should never be again.
The fact that the railroads threw their
whole power and influence in favor of
the gold standard in the late contest
should be sufficient to induce every sill
yer advocate to favor government own
ership of the roads. They can fight no
harder than they did anyway When
the people see that $662,OOO,OOO are
saved each year besides eliminating
six billions of Indebtedness. which they
will have to pay, together with inter-
est and dividends, they will put in pow
er the party that favors it. Let the
railroad question be. put to the front so
that other silver parties will be obliged
to take it up or go out of existence.

how many lines of goods the storekeep-

in one line, the first extra tax is ten
dollars, the second twenty-five dollars,
and SO on in graduation up to twenty
lines, when he is to pay $4,000 extra
tax, and that, too, after being duly as
sessed according to the constitution of
the state. Where then does the cash
valuation and the equality of taxation
come in? And yet we are told by the
drawers of this bill that it is constitu-
tional. Holy smoke! If such dam

legislature, am willing to be taxed for
