stands we'll by comparison. In some
towns the water departments are very
strict as to whether water is wasted
and have inspectors visit the houses in
the night to test water pipes and find
If water is running. The test is made
with small instrument like tsIe-
phone which is attached to pipe and
by means of an ear piece the inspector
can toll whether the water is running
or not If the water runs all night,
the department takes action against

While Wilmington is already an i'm
poftant port of entry, some Of the local
manufacturers might improve matters,
according to. Collector Of the Port
Cooper, by having imported goods
come through the local office instead
Of the Philadelphia or New York offices.
lie says there are only about five Or
SIX concerns now following that plan,
other ports, for which Wilmington nets

good thing for Wilmington If this plan

lished. 1t speaks of the work now in
progress In the shipyartis of the Harlan

prices, Dimensions and many interest
ing particulars Of the torpedoboat

The dinner to Senator Gray at the
Clayton House, Saturday night, a very
full report of which is printed in this
issue of the Gazette, was a deserved
compliment to an honorable, worthy
and distinguished citizen of this State.
As a Senator in the Senate of the
United States for nearly fourteen years,
and as member of the commission
which prepared the treaty of pence fol-
lowing the war with Spain, Senator
Gray has been conspicuous public
Character. And every political honor
conferred upon him has been none the
less an honor conferred upon the State
OF Delaware. 1t was appropriate, there
fore, that upon his return from Paris,
where the sittings of the Treaty Com
missioners were held, his fellow .citizens
should decide to recognize in u public
manner their appreciation of his signal
achievements.
Senator Gray has been honored by
the State of Delaware, and in return
has honored the State. No public man
can achieve higher need of praise
than the public testimony Of his
people that he has done this.

One feature of the Good Roads bill
introduced in the House of Representa-
tives, Monday, should be eliminated at
the very outset. And that is, tho pro.
vision giving to the local authorities
power to borrow money, on bonds run
ming for fifteen years, for the purpose
of road improvement.
1t is true that the time for the con
tinunnce of these loans is limited, and
that in amount they are restricted to a
certain percentage Of the assessed
valuation of property in the district to
which the loan is to apply. But this
makes no difference. The power to Dor
row money without special legislative
sanction is exceedingly risky, and the
experiment should not be tried. II
affords too great u temptation to run in
to debt unnecessarily, and against the
sentiment of the large majority of the
taxpayers Of district
But, above all, tho present indebted.
ness of New Castle county and of the
various hundreds for road purposes.
is already much larger than it should
be, To confer upon the county and
upon small localities the power to make
these burdens of debt still heavier
would be a most unwise policy. Even
under the present system of depend,
enee upon Legislative sanction our
debt has grown enormously, and to add
another dollar to it would be an i'm
position.
This loan feature of the bill should
not be countenanoed. 1t is dangerous.
1t should DO stricken out before the
bill is even considered upon its merits
in other respects.

There are scores of. candidates for

for the authorship and other offices. I'm
der the rules of the order all candidates
must be known and their names sent
two weeks in advance to every local or
der, which instructs it's delegation how to
vote in the convention. By this means
slectioneering is avoided and the dele
gates simply follow instructions.
Delegates from all the district oTgani-
cations are still here in secret session and
1t IS now believed here the meeting Is
for the purpose of making general de-
mand for higher wages, to be backed up
by the entire organization. 1t is given
out that it is only to arrange for the
national convention.
A man we'll up in labor circles today
said that the meeting had no doubt been
called for the purpose of arranging for
a general demand for higher wages,
which will be made after the 1st of jan

Will Not Be DefauIted.

the publication in New York financial

terest Of some Of it's bonds on Jan. /.
The mayor, as soon as his attention was
called to the report sent a note to the
Associated Press, as follows:
The city of Baltimore will not default
or fail to meet all its obligations on Jan.
/, 1900. The finance commissioners have
adopted a resolution agreeing to pay in
full the S75,000 Western Maryland rail-
way bonds, guaranteed by the city and
falling due on that day.

supplemented this statement by SAYING
that he deemed the report in question as
well as others of a siRlflar nature affect
ing the credit of the city of Baltimore
wholly false and unjustihable, as there
is not the slightest present. possibility
that Baltimore will fail to meet all her
obligations whenever they may fall due
