This is only one of many little things
that took place in Dover while the Legis
lature was In session. 1t was nothing new
for bill after bill to be stolen after II had
had Its first reading. We were told that q
divorce bill was stolen no less than three
times and If the lawyers had not been
watching 1t closely it would never have
passed. owing to tho bill not being able to
be found when wanted by the Divorce
Committee. Talk about bunco sharks;
well, you should have been down to Dover
and gone around with your eyes and ears
open. What you could have learned
would fill good sized book and make
more interesting reading than Harry G.
Turner's latest book exposing tho rascality
Of certain Democrats in the city of Will
rnington, who at one time had the city by
the throat and made thousands of dollars
by the pull" they enjoyed in handling
other peoples money. But it was per-
fectly legitimate.
NO MORE EXTENDING TERMS OF OFFICE.
Under the new Constitution the Legs-
lature can not shorten or lengthen any
term Of Office or cnt down the salary Of
any County officer while in office. The
new Constitution is supreme to the Legis-
laturo and all the idld threats of the mem
bers of what they were going to do to
make negative the dongs OF the Constitu-
tional Convention, was as we said at the
time they were being made, silly in the
extreme

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS.
Senators Expect to Finish the Tariff
Debate IN Two Wpels

DeDaCe IN Two weeks,
Washington, June 15.-The sugar
schedule Of the tariff bill is expected
to continue to be the subject OF con.
sderation In the senate for the next
day or two. The Hawaiian treaty and
antitrust amendments are still to be
disposed of, and both will excite con.
siderable debate. With the sugar ques.
tion settled, the agricultural schedule
which has been fSrtially considered
will be again taken up, and will in turn
be followed by the tobacco schedule
II in the meantime the Republicans
agree upon its provisions. The Re-
publican managers hope to also dis
pose of the spirit and cotton schedules
during the week, and possibly TO make
provisions. There will be no great
amount of debate on either cotton or
spirits. There was at one time talk
of an attempt to add compensatory
duties on cotton goods, because of the
duty fixed on raw cotton but this is
understood to have been abandoned,
If ever seriously contemplated. The
Democrats do not find the present
schedule Objectionable except in minor
details, and will allow 1t to go through
with but little discussion.
The Republican managers now hope
that the debate in the senate will be
concluded within the next two weeks,
notwithstanding less than one-third
of the bill has been gone over. They
have secured an agreement with the
Democrats that the sessions shall be-
gin at Ii o'clock each day, instead Of
II, after Wednesday next.
The house probably will continue Its
policy of adjourning from Monday over
to Thursday, and from Thursday until
the following Monday. No business will
be done, and the sessions today and
Thursday will be merely perfunctory

1t seems that some of the newsS
papers and thousands of people
will never let up on the subject OF
"hard times" If every family
owned a palace, drove a COACH
and.four, and had scores of barns
bursting with the fruits Of Mother
Earth, the Bsnquo-iike ghost of
"hard times" would still be sums
moned on dress parade. The fol.
lowing article from the American
Monthly Review of Reviews, one
of the most reliable publications in
existence, should be sufficient to
convince the most skeptical that the
monster, "hard times" is but the
distorted product ofa fevered brain:
"The most recent tendencies in
our commercial and economic life
are we'll exhibited in the report is-
sued by the Treasury Department
OF July 16, on the imports and e.
ports of the United States for the
fiscal year ending with the last day
of June. Our export trade was the
largest in the history of the coun-
Try, exceeding $1,000, 600. 900, that
OF the preceding year being about
$3.50, 100000. The balance OF trade
in our favor for this past year, that
is to say the excess Of exports oyer
imports, Is about $288, 900, 900, and
is considerably the greatest in our
history. But for the enormous an
ticipatory importations of the past
four months, which were made to
avoid the new tariff, we should hsve
had a balance Of trade for the fiscal
year of about $500, 100000. An
Analysis of 0nr trade shows how
unusually great was the European
demand TOR our breadstuffs, pro-
visions, cotton fiber, and other ma.
terials. 1t also shows q larger and
more rapid development of the for.
eign demand for our manufactured
goods than at any other time in our
history. Our exports of machinery
were very large, and 1t is interest
ing to observe, az an illustration of
the tendencies In the manufacturing
world, that we cent abroad last year
nearly $4,000, 900 worth of bicycles,
