If the legal machinery of the
State had been put in force years
ago, what nice lot of politicians
would, before this, have been doing
time. in the different jails in our
country. We don think the State
officials have. ever before stirred
themselves as they should over the
election cases. Every citizen of
Wilmington knows how the Repub-
licans have been treated for years;
how every kind Of disreputable ac-
ton was committed by the Demo-
cratic election officers, assisted by
dozens of county constables and
police officers; how Republicans
were cheated out Of the Offices they
ran for and Democrats returned
elected and seated Notwithstanding
the protest offered by the cheated
candidates. How many persons re-
member the disreputable methods
used to elect the late Calvin B.
Rhoads Mayor of Wilmington, and
how the hoodlums who tried the
same game when John j. Dougherty
ran for Mayor, but were defeated
by the respectable and we'll think
ingDemocrats voting for Austin c.
Harrington for Mayor. How Thos.
Johnson of the Third ward was de-
feated time and time again by being
counted out when he ran for City
Council and his Democratic oppo-
Iient declared elected. Even tissue
ballots were used time and time
again by some OF the very men who
have been making the most noise at
every election, crying fraud, when
there was no fraud to be found even
after careful investigation by the
authorities. The practice set by
the rascally Democratic election
inspectors, who always went unpun-
ished and were rewarded by their
party by being given local offices
and Offices have year after year been
created to reward these self-same
returning boards. There has, for
years, been too much winking OF
the authorities at these election
frauds. Now, possibly, they have
awakened from their Rip Van Win
kle sleep.

THE authorities of the city of
New Castle have been doing some
funny fnanciering for years. The
city owns HOO acres of land, pre-
scented by William Penn. The farms
apparently have not been very pro-
ductive of revenue, paying from
81 50 to S. an acre. The result is
that the city Of New Castle is bank
rupt. Orders of the city have gone
a-begging, even at a liberal dis
count; no store keeper wants them;
men who have worked on the roads
for years are still without their pay
to the amount of hundreds of dol
lars. There is no money to pay
the teachers of the schools, money
having to be borrowed on the notes
OF individual members. And this
city is controlled by way-back Demo-
Gratis. There is not another city so
unique in. America.

a voyage to rescue Spanish prisoners
near Raler. The admiral says he is en-
deayoring to ascertain the situation
of the lieutenant and his party. The
dispatch is in response to an inquiry
sent by Secretary Long, not because
the latter thought the admiral was not
making effery effort to rescue the men,
but to show the friends of the prisoners
that the department was not indif-
ferent to their fate or reniiss in its
endeavors to assist in regaining their
liberty.

The Treasury of Delaware would
not have been in such depleted
condition in 1897 and 1898, as it was
if the Democratic Legislature had
passed the incorporation act that
the Republican Legislature passed
in 1899. The bad financial condi-
tion OF both Sussex and Kent coun-
ties is owing to Democratic misman-
agement, which has been going on
for years. Look how the Road
Commissioners i'll New Castle Hun
dred have left the Hundreds linan-
ces which they have had in their
management for over 80 years. The
roads in this Hundred have now
come under Republican manage
ment and there is one thing certain
they can t do any worse than the
Democrats.

A mild sensation was created
by Judge Clayton yesterday in
the court room when in refusing
to entertain a motion for a new
trial in a case he stated that "if
the plaintiff were given justice he
would now be in the penitentiary."
This was a red-hot shot from His
Honor, and rather startling to the
plaintiff and his attorneys as well
as others who were present.

End Of the Criminal Business
Near at Hand.

The jury in the murder case
against Lewis Farbro after being
Tout more than thirty.six hours an
.nounced to the court this morning
at IL o'clock that they were unable
to agree upon verdict. From
the first ballot taken when they
retired Saturday afternoon, the
jury stood 10 for finding the de-
fendant guilty Of manslaughter
and two for finding him guilty Of
murder. The government in or
der to aid in reaching a verdict
withdrew the charge of murder in
the indictment and entered a
charge Of manslaughler. The jury
then retired ard within lew min
utes brought in verdict Of guilty
as charged, Of manslaughter, and
were discharged.

TIME NOW FOR ACTION.
vinita Can No Longer Afford
to Drift.


and the prospect of its ratification
by congress has placed new and
increased responsibilities upon
those who have the destines of vi
nita in their keeping and care
and that should be every individ-
ual citizen. Heretofore we could
afford, or believed we could, to
drift along with the tide. Now
new order of things is upon us. 1t
is true we have a live, thrifty
town of nearly 5000 inhabitants,
with good stores, schools,
churches, ETC., and court, but in
the light of what has been accom-
plished as if by magic in our
neighboring territory of Oklahoma,
what do these amount to? From
this time on the struggle for su.
premacy will be always with us,
| if Vinita is to attain that rank and
station we have all pictured for
her. The building of new cross
railroad or two through this Sec
ton, or a determined attempt OF
those we now have might place us
at such disadvantage that it
would take years Of combined ef-
tort to extricate ourselves from the
dilemma. We must endeavor to
place ourselves beyond the reach
Of such a misfortune, and the prac-
tcal way now at hand is to go out
after population and after new en-
terprises. People all over the
country have their eyes upon the
Indian Territory-we should focus
their vision on Vinita. The Kan
sas City Commercial club is max.
ing tour of this southwestern
country this week and will pay
Vinita visit. 1t is true they are
coming in the interest of Kansas
City but their visit may also be
turned to our advantage. When
they go home the visitors will be
asked what they saw. If a favor
able impression of Vinita was
formed by them they will not be
sparing in their praises. Col.
Robt. H. Kern said last Saturday
that the question was often asked
him, "What opportunity is there
in that country (the Indian Terri.
tory) for Investments" He said
that he was unable to inform them
definitely, but that with the rati6
cation of the several agreements
with the Indian tribes he believed
there would be many avenues
opened. Ex-Governor Francis, il
a speech in favor of worlds tail
for St. Louis in 1908, commemora
tive of the Louisiana Purchase
centennial anniversary, said thai
by that time the Indian Territory
would be well settled up and it
support could be safely counted on
This country is in the public eye
and our destinies are in our Owl
hands. The central factor in th'
work before us should be the Busi
ness Mems league and tits to b
hoped that organization will not b.
slow to recognize the Importance
of active effort from this time for
ward and that every resident o
Vinita will act with them or as in
dividuals-but with will.

Third Avenue was subject to violent fluctuations on denials and reassertions of the story that 1t had been acquired in the interest of the Metropolitan Trac- ton company After a break of 5 points Third Avenue rallied 15, lost 10 points. ending unchanged on the day.
 In the early trading there was small buying by London and interests con- nected with the steel stocks and also SOlllC ol buIllISIOH. f6allZ- ing by commission houses sent prices off. Burlington's decrease of $52,000 in surplus during January had a depress- ing effect on the railways, being coupled as it was by realizing in Atchison on the unfavorable interpretation given to it's January statement, which appeared late yesterday.
 The market rallied and then declined again on talk of the possibility of tight CT call money and on the circulation of a rumor that the Americans had sunk a German cruiser at Manila. There was a brisk attack on values stop-loss or ders being uncovered, and considerable liquidation was induced Prices picked up again when it became known that no such disturbing Manila advices had been received, but speculation became unsettled again with the renewal of pressure. Sugar, which showed early strength on reports of the acquisition of a rival company, sold off on the de- nial.
 Two things which in measure would account for the weakness of the mar ket were that London sold in the after noon the stock purchased earlier, and that two of the leading interests that had been prominent on the bull side were said to be practically out of the market for the moment and let some of the stocks with which they had been identified shift for themselves Many | million dollars worth of American se- curities sold by London in previous l weeks reached New York in the past 1 few days, but the agents of some of the foreign houses expressed the opinion that shipments have practically ceased, at least for the present, as sales for for
