SAID well known merchant do
ing business on the West side and
who was witness before the coro-
ner, to the writer, that he consid-
cred the office a disgrace to the
county. He could not see why the
county could not have provided a
decent respectable place in which
to hold the i7quests. The office OF
coroner is an important one and a
respectable place should be proyid-
ed for the use Of the coroner for
holding inqucsts. Nearly every
coroner who has held the Office for
the past 20 or more years has been
perfectly satisfied with anything in
the shape of rooms 10 hold their in
quests in, when, instead, light and
well ventilated quarters, owned
jointly by the city and county,
should be provided. We say the
Coroner's office does not meet the
needs of those who are summoned
by him to hold inquests or the wit
nesses who appear before him.

every man in this country has a
perfect right to think as he pleases
especially when he pays his own
money for the privilege OF voting.
The REPUBLICAN has the good of
the Republican party at heart, first,
last, and all the time. 1t places
the success of the party before self.
1t is ready and willing to do any
thing that is honor able to heal over
the sore in the Republican party
in this State that will be the means
of carrying Delaware for the Re-
publican party at the next election.
1t is willing to forsake all the So
called leaders to place Delaware in
the column of Republican States at
the next election. A Republican
victory in Delaware at the election
in 1900, means two Republican U.
S. Senators and State officers in all
three Of the counties. 1t means
the redemption of Delaware from
Democratic supremacy for the next
20 years. 1t remains with the Re-
publican voters to secure what they
have been working for the last thirty
years-Republicansu success in Della
ware. Calling hard names and
using threats will never bring the
two factions together. A divided
party means Democratic success.
Do the Republican voters want
that? We think not,

1t is altogether probable that no corpora

in the movement for new constitution
So far MS The Post can see corporations
have nothing to gain by It.
Mr.. Shaw in his interview plumes him
self on the fact that he asked some gentle
man to suggest substitute for the present
clumsy. inconsistent and outragcousiy ex-
pensive judiciary system, and that the gen
tleman did not have perfected article at
hand with which to answer the question.
And this. he seems to think, was a clinch-
ing argument against the calling OF con-
vention This Is mere dribble, and does
not measure up to n sleepy point OF or
der" It Is recognized that our judiciary
system is worse than faulty, and not only
needs amending but should be completely
overhuuled; but because some advocate Of
a convention could not during casual con-
versation suggest what It would require the
assembled wisdom OF the State to deter
mine, the "agin the convention crowd
proceed to chuclsle like Digger Indians at
a war dance. And this may be accepted as
sample of the opposition that may be
looked for.
AS TO the exemption laws, and the alleged
approximations on the part Of certain gen
tlemen with regard to the peoples rights
under them. 1t is sufficient to say that no
man could be elected delegate to the con-
vention who would seek to disturb them;
and the same may be said of the railway
commission and bond laws These laws
are there to stay, and the very few who
object to them recognize the fact.
But there are other reasons underlying
this opposition to the calling of a conven-
ton. reasons entirely aside from the pre-
tended fears Of attacks upon the vested
rights Of the people or the suggested en-
croachments Of the corporations. No doubt
these reasons viii be uncovered in good

THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.

THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT..
The attendance of students in the med
ical department last year was 35s and the
year before 2SS, being a gain of 40 over the
enrolment Of the two preceding years.
During the present session there has been
slight decrease, and further increase
can not be expected, at least for some
time, as the course Of instruction has been
| heightened from three years to four and
| at the same time the requirements for
admission have been materially Increased.
Nor is increase of numbers specially de-
| siraple' Inc aim of the department Is
rather to instruct thoroughly a smaller
number, and thus to provide for the Stale
hlgher standards of medical training
knowledge and skill. Some legislation Is
needed to protect the people OF the State
against unframed and incompetent med
icai practitioners. and much would be ac-
compiished In this direction il the reauire-
