DR.. Black stated that stone quarrles
arc expensive, and tho taxpayers dld
not wish TO invest in them as tho cost
of the stone and the expense Of hauling
it, with tho patchwork done, resulted
in but little benefit to the people or

TWO ATTEMPTS AT ROBBERY.
Unsuccessful Efforts to Enter the Resid once
-. of Mrs. LnniHa A. Baldwin.


Mrs. Louisa A. Baldwin of No. GIG
West Eighth street and the members
Of her family were badly frightened
shortly before midnight Tuesday by a
man who was seen prowling around on
the roof OF the two-story back building,
evidently making an effort to enter the
third story Of the main part of the
house.
Charles L. Simmons. who lives at
the corner of Eighth and jackson
streets, in the house adjoining the one
occupied by the Baldwin family, was
apprised of tho discovery and search
was Instituted. The prowler evidently
knew that he was detected, however,
us he made good his escape before there
was an opportunity to capture him.
Police Officer Rice and Special Officer
Darrell were soon on the scene and they
and Mr.. Simmons looked through the
house, fearing the intruder or COM
panion might have made his way in
side, but they did not find anybody and
1t is supposed that the stranger was
frustrated in his movements.
A similar attempt was made to enter
the house late last Saturday night
week, but the intruder was frightened
off. 1t is believed that tne man who
was seen on the roof Tuesday was tho
same one who was there before, and he
had evidently planned robbery. People
living in the neighborhood are on the
lookout for him and will give him a
warm reception If he visits the place
again and they catch him.

Proposed Appointment .,r ! senator.

1t is hardly worth while at this time
to make dead set upon Governor Tun-
nell, in an effort to induce him to make
an appointment of United States Sena-
tor from this State, to fiji the existing
vacancy, solely upon the hope that the
Senate will reverse its established
precedents and seatisuch an appointee
next winter.
The influences that actuated Cover
nor Stone Of Pennsylvania in giving
appointment to Quay do not apply to
Governor Tunnel. Governor Stone is
but the political creature of Quay, the
nominee Of his political machine and
elected governor by the good offices OF
that machine. He is thereby bound to
obey every behest of Quay, and as
Quay no doubt desired the appoint
ment, Stone was Obliged to give it to
him. But Governor Tunnell is under
such obligations to no man or no set of
men in Delaware. lie is n free agent,
elected by the Democratic voters with
no other pledges than to honestly and
consoientiousiy perform his duty, which
he is doing to the letter.
AS to the question of the States
right TO have q full representation in
the United States Senate, that will
suffer nothing by waiting until Con-
gress reassembles next December.
Should Quay be admitted, then Cover
nor Tunnel could make an appointment
with assurance that it would not be
turned down, for the two cases would
be on all-fours in all respects. Should
Quay's credentials be rejected, Cover
nor Tunnel would be in just the posi-
tion he is now, and then the RESPONSE
bility for our States lack of full repre-,
sentation would remain where il origi
nally belonged-upon the Legislature
that had ample opportunity to elect,
but instead created vacancy.
Really, all things considered, there
is no occasion for Governor Tunnel
helping Republican Legislature out
| Of hole.

saos Track Gambling Methods.

1t is generally conceded, although tho
ictuRl facts of the transaction are not
yet public property, that the real OBJ
iect Of tho SNAKE gambling bill
which was so nearly foisted upon the
people of Delaware was to open the
doors in this State to notorious race
track gambling interests in this
vicinity.
These interests have been lowering
around the Delaware Legislature for
years, in futile endeayor to obtain
recognition and encouragement in the
laws of tho State. At ono campaign of
recent years, it was said that the rep
resentatives of tho gambling interests
offered to the managers of the Demo
cratic party large sum Of money in
return for an assurance OF the desired
legislation at tho session of the Legis
lature then to be chosen. 1t was
known at the time that large Repub-
lican corruption fund was being ex-
pended in the interests of the Republi
can party, and certain Democrats were
desirous of accepting the gamblers
offer, for the purpose of being able
to counteract the effect of the Republi
can money by lighting the devil with
4. fire. -
The better element of the Demo.
cratic party, however, refused the over
ture, preferring to make the campaign
one of manhood against money! anc
to trust to tho honest sentiment Of tht
people for victory, even preferring de
feat to victory under such dlsreputabl,
influences.
The high stand taken by these Demo
cratic leaders in that campaign is to b,
commended. II all political influence
in Delaware had been as incorruptible
the State would not have been dis
graced by the revelations of the reoen
session of the General Assembly, in
cluding charges OF bribery, as we'll a
attempts to sneak through perniciou
legislation by underhand methods.

Next Fans Elections.

The following State elections will be
held next November:
Iowa--For governor and other State
officers.
Kentuclsy-For governor and other
State officers.
Maryland-For, governor and both
houses of the Legislature.
Massachusetts-For governor, State
officers and both houses of the Legis-
lature.
Mississippi-For governor, State off
Gers, Legislature and all county off
GERS.
Nebraska For justice of the Supreme
Court and two members of the Board
Of Regents. H...
New Jersey-Eight State Senators,
sixty members of the Assembly and
county officers.
New York-Two Justices of tho
Supreme Court in First judicial dis
trict, one justice in Fifth district,
three justices in Eighth district and
150 members of Assembly.
Ohio-Governor and all State officers.
Pennsylvania-s5tate treasurer, two
judges of the Supreme Court and one
judge of the Superior Court.
Virginia Secretary of the Common
wealth, treasurer and minor State
officers.
Very little political Importance. how
ever, attaches to these elections, OK
cepting the one in Maryland. This
one time reliably Democratic State has
been carried by the Republicans twice
in succession, but this year the Demo-
Gratis expect to regain control.

Tho A,,smp,. 10 s,,fl. u,sorr,.

The upholders of the administration
indefensible and unwarranted attitude
towards the people Of the Philippine
Islands have become SO desperate at
the storm of adverse criticism their
actions have aroused. that they are
resorting to extreme measures. They
are CHASING as traitors all who dis
agree with them, and yesterday the
administration ordered that the letters
of Edward Atkinson of Boston, who has
been sending auti-war pamphlets to
soldiers in the Philippines, be excluded
from the foreign mails.
Mr.. Atkinson. who is vice president
of the Anti-lmperialistic League of
Boston, states that three of these
pamphlets comprised facts and figures
compiled from the debates of Congress,
and were therefore part of the official
record. He sent his pamphlets only to
men in the volunteer regiments, whose
terms are expiring, and who, it is
known, are not inclined to re-enlist,
despite the financial Inducements
offered them. They gladly enlisted for
the purpose of fighting for Cuba's
liberation from Spanish control, but
are dissatisfied at being called upon to
fight people who had for three centuries
been fighting as the Cubans fought,
against Spanish misrule and oppres-
sion. They are tired of the pastime of
"killing niggers' whose only crime is
that they insist upon standing up to
the death for liberty and independence.
But, no matter what the character
of Mr.. Atkinson's pamphlets, this
action of tho administration can only
be construed as one of desperation.
The imperialists are beginning to feel
the effect of public sentiment, and, like
the British Grown in 1776. are en-
deayoring to stifle that sentiment by
brute force. #
Having established n censorship of
the mails in this country, doubtless the
next step will be the establishment of
like censorship in the Philippines, SO
as to prevent the private soldiers there
writing to their friends at home how
disgusted they are at the war of
pillage, rapine and destruction against
patriotic people, in which they have
been inveigled under the original pur-
pose of fighting for Free Cuba.

We are paying big money, in addition
to violating law and justice, by in
dulgipg in our Philippine war. The
expenditures of the government in the
last ten months were $533, 35S, 3o3,
against 1913, 763, sS2 in the correspond
ing ten months ended April 30th, 1887.
This includes the $40, 600, 600 just paid
to Spain for the right to subdue the
Filipinos. The increase is largely due
to the larger outlay on army and navy.
In April, May and June, 1898, for
example, the outgo for army and navy
was S54, ,9S4,3T more than in the like
months of 1897. Adding this sum to
the figure eivon for tho ten months, the
audited expenditure for the war so far
appears to have been S275, SIT, 1877. But
many large bills remain to be paid, and
the pensions due to the Spanish war
have hardly begun to be collected. 1t
is not an excessive estimate, says the
Baltimore Sun, to put the cost Of the
war, all told, at over $500, 900, GOO, and
the resultant expenditure, duo to the
changed foreign policy introduced by
the war, at two or three times that
sum. 1t is Just criticism upon the
originators of the war and the policy OF
acquisition to say that they have
brought upon the people burden
which must constantly increase and
which promises to be illimitable. Il.
