JAMES b. GENTRY, who was under SEN
tsncc of death for the murder of Madge
Yorke has had his sentence committed to
imprisonment for life. The Board of
Pardons did not follow out the precepts of
the good book. which taught, an eye for an
eye and life for life. This man cruelty
shot Madge Yorke In cold blood, without
cause Or provocation, except that she had
failed to answer telegram, sent by him,
her lover, and when he came on from New
York and met hor, he shot her dead at his
feet. The man did not deserve the inter
ference of the Pardon Board, for If any
man deserved hanging surely James ID.
Gentry Is that man. There Is entirely too
much sympathy shown for those who COM

THE Legislature should never pass tho
bill divorcing Mrs. Acklans from her hus-
band. The lady is not resident of Della =

of procuring divorce easily. The case

THE bill to increase the salary Of the
City Solicitor and creating an assist ant
at salary of $1,000, Is another bold at
tempt to loot tho city treasury. Where
will the steal end If persisted in by the
very men who preached that if the wicked
Republicans capture the State they would
bankrupt it. The proposed increase in
salaries with the indexing of tho deeds
will foot up some fourteen thousand dol
lars, which the tax payers OF New Castle
county will have to pay With tho steady
and rapid increase Of expenses to run the
municipal departments In the city, it is
only question of time when the present
tax rate or the assessed values will have to
raised. The prevailing idea appears to be
to loot the county treasury. 1t is by this
means the Democratic party expects to
raise funds for their party organization.

The sharp trick of repeating the law
governing the makeup of the Kent county
returning board is not likely to benefit its
promoters much. Chief Justice Lore on
Monday, on the application of Walter II.

against the l6 inspectors of Kent county,
citing them to appear in court on Friday.
They are cited to assemble and show cause
why they shall not count the vote. 1t be.

trouble ahead yet for the men who con-
nived to cheat the Republicans out of their
victory, won at the polls in November
last. The Union Republicans are making
the fight unaided and alone.

White Ribboner is we'll known to be
throughout the state, as some of the
most important points and results of
her visit we failed to dwell upon. One
of these was the organization of a
Young Women's Christian association
with a membership of thirteen of
Morris most popular young ladies,
the new officers of which are: Presi-
dent, Miss Flora Pepper: vice plesi-
dent Miss May Dye; secretary; Miss
Mabel Stone; treasurer, Miss Dottie
Patterson. Misses Maud johnson and
Nellie Kerns we're chosen ais vice presi-
dents to represent the Methodist and
Congregational churches respectively,
The next good result of Mrs.
Scoville's work was the Mothers
meeting, which was held at the M. E.
parsonage on Friday afternoon and
was largely attended and deep in
terest taken in the meeting by all.
The mothers, young people, and in
fact all who we're fortunate enough to
hear this charming and fluent speaker,
cannot be too loud in their praise of
the good she has done to our village.
Mrs. Scoville is state president Of the
Y. w. @. A. and deyotes the majority
of her time in travelling through the

doing good otherwise in the interest
