PHILADELPHIA, July 5.-Twenty-
eight new worlds records were established
today in the 3O-mile match bicycle race a,
Willow Grove between Edouard Taylore
champion of France, and Tom Linton. The
little Frenchman succeeded in lowering the
worlds record for one hour, although he
was defeated by Linton, who won the race
in 1910.
The performance of the men had been Sc
remarkable that the officials urged them
both to go ahead for the hour record, but
Linton failed to understand the urgings
and dropped out, but the little Frenchmar
kept calling on his pacemakers to speed
faster, and when one hour had been reached
he had covered SO miles and 963 yards. Ths
best previous record for one hour was 80
miles 1886 yards, made by j. w. Stocks at

In the line of 'stommyrot'' and
''poppycock," the New York Evening
Post holds that the most nauseous and
most injurious to the public health is
that about "the American people rising
to the height of whatever responsible
ties they assume" and about DUTY
getting hold of Destiny and making
her do her work. Since the war of
1860 the American people have sue
ceeded to two at least Of the most oner-
GUS responsibilities which have ever
fallen to the lot Of any nation. One is
the reform Of our currency and the
other is the elevation of the Indian and
negro races. We have hardly done a
thing about either. The currency
problem is very much where it was
thirty years ago. To the negroes we
made the ridiculous gift Of the suf-
frage, but not another thing. Not the
slightest organized effort has beer
made by the white community, as q
whole, to lift this huge negro popula,
ton out Of degradation, though We
know we'll that their ignorance ant
barbarism threaten our future. TIL,
sole thing we do with alacrity for tn,
negro is to burn him alive when h,
does very wrong. But IL will not be 81
easy to burn the Tagals and othe
races. We shall not have mon enough
to lynch decently in 1900 islands, i
that be our national mode of reclaim
ing the erring.

Every violation OF the election laws
by inspectors at the last election should
be resolutely prosecuted, but the prose-
cution should not be confined TO Demo-
cratic inspectors. 1t should include
all election officers, no matter of which
party, who wifully violated the law.
The matter of imposing an illegal
stamp upon voters, in particular, de-
mands investigation. as it was fraud
that was evidently far-reaching in its
intent, although it seems to have been
discovered in only one election district.

Whether his vote was counted or re-

the authors of the scheme should bt

The course pursued by the court in
Kent county while canvassing the re-
turns OF the election has caused some
comment and given rise to much mis-
understanding. There can be no doubt,
however, that the course pursued by
Chancellor Nicholson and Judge Pen
newill was the proper one, and in
strict accord with the letter and spirit
Of the Constitution.
No sensible view of the Constitution
will serve to convert our judges into
mere inspectors of election in the duty
of canvassing the votes. They are to
ascertain the state of the vote,'' and
may open the ballot boxes in order to
investigate charges OF fraud or mistake.
But they are not to take the places of
election officers and open the boxes for
. canvass of the ballots when it shall
appear to them that the election Off
GERS in the performance of their duties
had used their best judgment and de-
cided as fairly as they knew how.
In the course of the Kent county
canvass, the allegation was made that
the election officers of one district had
fraudulently or mistakenly rejected
seventeen ballots, as result of which
. Republican had been returned as
elected Representative to the Genera
Assembly, when a count of these bal
lots would have elected Democrat.
The election officers were called, ane
oil testified that they had rejected
these ballots because, in their judg.
ment, they were defective under thu
law, the decisions of the election boart
having been practically unanimous.

The proceedings of the Trustees of
the New Castle Commons at Tuesdays
meeting, as reported in our New Castle
letter, do not present an encouraging
state of affairs. There is very little
money in the treasury; various bills
are pending; there is an Indebtedness
of several thousand dollars to the bank,
and--the tenants of the Commons farms
are behind in their rent about $4,000.
1t is altogether probable, although
we have not the details of the boards
financial condition, that the amount
due for rent. which is practically So
cured. is sufficient to pay the indebted
ness Of the board. Manifestly, there
fore, it will be we'll to collect the rent,
pay the bills, and thus put the or.
ganization upon a strictly cash basis.
AS a matter Of fact. the existing state
of affairs should never have been per-
mitted to prevail.
Tho farms held in trust by the Trus
tees of the Commons-the gift of Will
liam Penn to the city of Now Castle
are among the best in this locality
rich and susceptible of the most re
munerative cultivation. There seem
to be no reason why they cshould no
continually be in the hands of capabl
and prompt-paying tenants. Then tn
trustees would always have money il
hand to meet all expenses, and woul,
not be compelled to make the sorr
financial showing that last night

At the recent election the people Of
Cleveland, Ohio. voted on the question
of adopting voting machines, A ma
iority of the voters who expressed a
preference on the subject recorded
themselves in favor, but the cleo
ton board ruled that the proposition
was not adopted because it did not re-
ceive majority Of all the votes cast.
Tho incident, however, shows that the
sentiment with regard to voting ma
chimes is growing. In Rochester, N.
Y, at the last election, they were used
with highly successful results, and il
is not improbable that in a few years
they will almost entirely succeed the
present system Of voting. The voting
machine has fully demonstrated its &c
curacy and honesty, and its great say
