Many are not satisfied with the
city tickets now in the field and
there is considerable talk of a
citizens movement but whether
it will amount to anything more
than talk we are unable to say. If
anything is done it must be done
right away as all nominations
must be filed with the recorder
by next Sunday. There is
enough voters favorable to this
move to make it success if it is
only started and we hope it is
pushed at once.

Editor Crosby of the Southern
Censor is proud of his profession
and in recent issue says: cit is
nearly as old as the race to look
upon law as the greatest profess
sion there is, but law is no longer
entitled to the credit. We must
look among jurists of the past to
find our greatest characters of
history, but it is not so of the pre-
sent. 1t will not be so of the flu
ture. The very fact that journal
ism has reached what it has in
three centuries, stamps it as the
greatest profession of the two.'

They say we are going to have
that distillery sure now. The
promoters have made the requisite
tests. carefully looked over the
situation and have concluded
there is money in it. We can not
say whether the great talk here
on the liquor question lately has
cut any figure or not. We would
like to see this business come as it
means, the outlay of more money
and the employment of more men
and the turning of a waste pro-
duct into money.

Both municipal tickets are now
in the field and the parties are lin
ing up for the fray. This prohi-
bition question means the severing
of party ties and general mixing
up Of matters so it will be hard
TO tell how the thing is going.
We do not think either ticket will
be elected in its entirity. If the
best men are taken from both we
will have good ticket elected.
This will be done in many cases
as this yellow dog business will
not so this year. The chances
are that it will be a lively fight.
We are still of the opinion that a
a citizens ticket would have been
by far the best and we are by no
means alone in this opinion.

Big Harvesting Machine.

The biggest harvesting machine in
the world is at work out in California
1t turns out three sixty-pounds sacks
OF wheat every minute. The machine
has cutting line of ffty-two feet, and
1t also threshes and sacks the grain.
In one run round 1000 acre field #
will turn out hundreds of sacks of
wheat ready for market.
The cost of harvesting has been re-
duced to minimum by this machine
and the number of days consumed in
getting a large field ready for market
Will be about half of a harvester
Eight or ten men handle it easilvwb
1t Is turning out from /, 500 to l 500
sacks day of ten hours and sweepinr
100 acres of grain clean.
At present it is working in the heav-
lest wheat ever grown in this country.
The grain on the farm has always
been tall and a rank growth, but this
year 1t was much heavier than in the
past seasons. No difficulty has been
experienced in harvesting, as the trac-
ton engine, which was built especially
for the machine, pushes it through the
thick grain with about the same ease
that an ordinary engine would drag a
wagon over a country road.

DISCRIMINATION IN TAXES.

None OF the assessors of New Castle
county has yet come toward to explain
how 1t came about that in six or seven
hundreds their assessment for 1897 is
more than 20 per centum lower than If
was in 1893. Nor have any of the en-
terprislng dailies of Wilmington peeped
INTO the assessment books of the Sc
veral hundreds and told an inouirino
public who got the benefit of this
gross reduction. The NIiddletowp
transcript has reprinted the state
ment from the New Era of that town
that at least six farmers of st. Georges
hundred have benfited by change. Last
year, upon the 1898 assessment, their
farms were assessed in the aggregate to
the amount of 1884, 1G1, while this wear
the aggregate reaches only $62, ,791, are
ductlOn of S21 ,440 or more than 95 ner
centum. The average reduction in St
Georges hundred is only 90 per
centum. Hence these six wealthy far
mers got benefit one-fourth greater
than the rest of the hundred. If this
reduction was uniform, why does not
storekeepers, mechanic or laborer of
MlddletOwn come forward and show
what his reduction amounts to? In
this reduction merely for the owners of
Mlddletown and Odessa and Port Penn?
1t would be very interesting for the as
SCISSOR of st. Georges to explain bv
what rule he made his reductions. -

Millions in Kansas.

State Bank Examiner John Braden-
thai, of Kansas, in his semi-annual
statement says:
ga most extraordinary financial con-
dltlon exists in Kansas. The surplus
In the banks of the state is larger than
ever previously known, and the cash
In circulation among the people seems
undiminished.
1.-The banks cannot loan their money
and are worried to know what to do
with the enormous deposits on which
they are paying 4 per cent interest.
At this time the people of the state are
engaged in moving an enormous wheat
crop and 5O,OOO,OOO bushels of last
years corn crop, and if they do not
need cash to handle such an enormous
volume of business the banks are anx-
ious to know what they will need
money for later.
'"The grain is rushing east rapidly
and all farmers are making improve
ments on their lands and actually have
money to burn. The situation is an
noying the bankers of Kansas very
much. The extraordinary situa-
tion attribute to the wave of econ
omy which the hard times of the past
few years developed. The farmers
were forced to get along without bor-
rowing money, and now they find it
easy to continue in that line."
A remarkable feature Of the situation
is that the bank examiner who submits
this report is Populist and free sill
verite. %"

Reunited Republicans.

The Morning Ne,OS, Higgins organ,
has this to say about harmony: The
resolution adopted by the Republican
State Committee on Wednesday was
direct and to the point. The commit
tee declared that it realized ''the ne
cessity of united party" to o -"om-
plished Republican success.
That is the keynote of the pending
proposition. A house divided against
itself will fall. A reunion of the mem
bers of the Republican party of Della
ware is desired by every right-thinking
member of both organizations. There
is strong sentiment in the rank and
file of both parties in favor of coming
together. The appointment of COM
mittee of the regular Republicans to
confer with a committee of the Union
Republicans is the first step in the
right direction.
1t is not for us to say at this time
what should be the terms of the agree
ment necessary to bring about har-
mony of action in the future. When
the sixteen men get together-pre.
suming that the Union Republicans ac-
cept in good faith the tender made in
response to their letter-it will remain
for them to reach an agreement.
We sincerely trust that the two COM
mittees will be able to reach some
amicable conclusion. The present sit
nation is deplored by the Republicans
throughout the State. Our Demo-
cratic friends are unhappy over the
possibility of the Republicans adjust
ing their differences. Therefore there
is every reason why those differences
should be made matter of the past.
The way to harmonize is to come to-
gether. The sooner the better.

THE SUGAR TRUST.

Senator McEnery in speech ON the

best way of dealing with it. Establish

district in the United States. (Ap-
plause on the Republican side.1 Give
competition and lots of it, everv-
where. Put the farmers over against
the trust by passing this bill, and re-
duce the price of sugar SO that Ger
man raw sugar cannot be brought in
to be refined here. Gentlemen on the
other side, come over and help us
while we help the farmers out. Gaugh-
ter and applause.) You Changers over
there, come and help us. You Popu-
lists, that go up and down the streets
day after day proclaiming your devo-
ton to the interests of the farmers,
help us out now when we are trying to
help the farmers in this industry that
we can establish so successfully. In
this way you will do something toward
demolishing the trust. You will ac-
complish more in this way than bv

Sand at. the River InIets.

The Milford Herald, which advocates
the plan of Gen. Smith for a "Pile
Dyke" at the'm0Gth of the Mispillion,
to keep back the incoming sand, gives
the following bit of history:
"The great ice tidefof1 1881 may be
said to have greatly increased the
trouble to our navigation; before that
storm came the beach from the mouth
of Mispillion river to Clafk's point was
high, with sand hills high enough to
enable the farmers to see their cattle
from the top for miles over the marsh.
The bay was full of heavy ice at the
time, a violent storm set in from east
southeast; soon the water rose high
enough for the dense mass of ice to
sweep over the beach to farms inland !;
the beach was leveled as fiat as floor
and spread into the marsh. When the
vast body of water began to subside it
carried great quantities of ice which
secured across the beach carrying with
the help of the water thousands of
tons of sand into the bay. The beach
has remained fiat ever since, but the
sand was dragged and washed away
never to come back again. 1t now, to a
great extent, helps to make the flats,
and is thecanse. of much of the trouble.
