The statement is yet being frequent
ly made that the public schools Of Del
aware are maintained by the license
fees received from the sale of liquor.
This is no longer the case under the
new school law. Formerly it was true,
but now all of the receipts Of the State
go into the general fund and The Legis-
lature sppTopriates 500, 900 year from
the general fund for the school fund.
The amount is about the same but the
law is entirely diffsrent.-ExchaDge.
If we are not mistaken, and we are
confident we are not, the fixed appro-
priation to the schools is a requii ement
of the new constitution, a minimum
sum being named. Much of the credit
for this belongs to Prof. Spade, princi-
pal Of the-DuPonts schools, be having
been before the Constitutional Conven-
tion several times in that interest. The
naming Of fixed amount is better we
think than the receipts from license, a
chaugeable sum yearly. We never felt
the objection against the liquor licenses
going into the school fund where they
now gqhindirectly, but have always
taken great credit to the Republican
General Assembly Of 1889 which did
something-nearly doubled the State
appropriation to the public schools
and made free books possible.

After the Dover Crowd.

From present indications as set forth
in the Delawarean there is going to be
some very interesting times in the
Democratic party before long. The
Democratic newspapers in the lower
part of the State are fighting each other
over the cause for the defeat in the
last election, and some very unpleasant
remarks are being made.
It is believed that there is an ef-
fort being made on the part Of some
of the Democrats to weed out the Dow
or leaders and to get in new men, but
the,dificulty appears to be that, there Ii
no new man who is any better politi-
cally than the ones who are now in
control. Neither have the new mer
any more political ability than the ones
who are to be deposed, and so theD EN-.
ocrats are in trouble. e.-Exchange.

The criticism was just. 1t was for the

accomplishment worthy the thought of

Yes, there was at least one man who

criticised. The subject matter of his
talks was timely, the language was
choice, but he stalks not through his

abominable. Uni ess there is an ire
mediable physical defect it is un-
pardonable. The nose has other uses
that as an organ of speech. All have
heard the nasal speaker who uses his
nostrils to give twang to his words.
And the more the probosis is brought
into play as a sound modifer the more
the average possessor of such abomin-
able tones imagines that he talks well.
We believe such manner of speech is
largely the fault Of early training, and,
if so, the parent and teacher should
correct the defect early. 1t may take
Zine upon line'', warning upon warn

should be as faithful as the fault is OBJ

sounds his words through his nose?
His speech is more of a whine and al
most any sound is preferable to the
whine.
