A Rich Find.

In the course of the removal of the
books and papers of the Library of Con-
gress to the new building an unexpected
find was made in the shape of a large
box of papers written by Thomas JefIer-
son. They were found stored away in a
little room next the entrance of the
library, which has been under lock and
key for many years. They are entirely
public papers, a note among them saying
that all private papers with the lot had
been returned to the writers or contrib
utors. 1t is believed that they came to
the Library of Congress through John
Randolph. The papers have been trans
ferred to the state department, where
they will be examined and filed away
with other state paper by the librarian,
Mr.. Allen.

NEW WAR STAMPS,
Editor and Proprietor

The new taxes laid for the prosecu.
tion of the war-other than those which
became operative on the passage of the
act, went into effect Friday, July 1st.
There ought to be not even desire.
still less an effort, on the part of any
good citizen to evade the payment of
any of them. war is an expensive
business, and the cost has to be paid by
somebody. There are severe penalties
for failure to comply with the provi-
sions Of the law. 1t is important that
the following requirements Of the law
should be generally remembered and
observed:
Every check must have two-cent
stamp.
Every draft, including domestic
money orders, must have two-cent
stamp if the sum does not exceed $100,
and an additional two cent stamp for
each additional 500 or fractional part
thereof.
Every domestic bill of lading and
every receipt for goods issued by rail-
roads, steamboat lines, express compan-
les and other transportation companies
must bear one-cent stamp.
Every telegraph dispatch must have
a one-cent stamp affixed before being
transmitted over the wires.
Every package, box, bottle or phial
Of medicinal proprietary articles and
preparations and of perfumery and cos
metics and similar articles must also
bear a stamp varying in value accord
ing to the retail price of the article.
Every deed, lease, mortgage, bond,
agreement to sell goods, power of attor-
ney and protest of notes, promissory
note ETC., musthave stamp.
Every certificate, including those at
tached to marriage licenses, must have
ten cent stamp.
Life and fire insurance policies, pas
age tickets to foreign ports, chewing
gum and wine bottled for sale are also
taxable.
Documentary and proprietary stamps
are issued, and they may not be used
interchangeably. In all cases where
an adhesive stamp shall be used, the
person using or afixing the same, shall
write or stamp thereupon the initials of
his name and the date upon which the
same shall be attached or used, under
penalty of fine of from $50 to $500 or
Imprisonment for not more than six
months, or both. This provision ap.
plies to checks, drafts, bills of exchange,
promissory notes, etc., the only differ
ence being in the penalty for vio-
lation, it being fine of not more than
$500.

The darkest hour is just before the

Delaware who had expected union of
Republicans in this State from the con-
ference of the two State committees on
Wednesday. They failed to harmonic,
however, the rock on which they split

Wilmington, 40 to rural New Castle,
40 to Kent and 42 to Sussex, or total
160. Mr.. Addicks who was a member
