SIGNS OF THE TIMES.
From the Dover Delawarea 4

rEOm tle DOfer DelhWhreA1
There is an unrest plainly visible
among the voters of Delaware, both
Democrat and Republican. that augurs
well, We believe for the State OF Della
ware. Probably never in its history
have the voters as a rule, shown the in
terest in public affairs, both State and
National, that they now exhioit;sprob-
ably never in the history of either party
have the rank and file OF the voters more
CLOSELY studied the questions at issue, or
more highly appreciated the power OF
the franchise az their command than
they do now.
Conservatively considered, we believe
that the yoter OF today is not to be led as
he was, say a decade ago. He has done
hls own estimating of the questions that
will confront him and he has placed
candidates aud issues in the same cate.
CORY. He has realized that TO accom-.
plsn purpose upon which, he has de
tefmlned, iie must vote Tor men who al
heart aie with him in sentiment.
This condition is recognized because
it is patent, and the leaders of a;t
party a,e governing tn, mselves accord

H. q F. PURE MALT TONIC.
Increasing Demand for New Pro-
UH. duct of Local Company.

Increasing Demand for New Pro-
%; duct of a Local Company.
Phenomenal success has followed the
introduction on the market by the Hart
mann & Fehrenbach Company of their
Pure Malt Tonic. This is specially
manufactured by the company in ad-
dition to their widely-known beer, and
other products OF their brewery in this
city, which by their good qualities have
commended themselves to the public.
But results even more gratifying than
those following the introduction Of the
other brews have attached to the placing
of the Pure Malt Tonic on the market. 1t
was in September last that the tonic was
first offered to the public, and since then
its popularity has grown rapidly, much
to the qualification of the Hartmann d
FehrenDach Company. Not only is the
tonic now in demand throughout Della
ware, but large shipments are constantly
made to Pennsylvania, Maryland, New
Jersey and the Nirginias, where leading
druggists and houses handle it.
line Pure Malt Tonic is concentrated
liquid extract of pure malt and selected
hops, prepared with tie greatest care
for medicinal use. In the preparation
every precaution is taken to preserve
purity, so essential for medicinal pur-
poses. 1t aids digestion and will be
lvund beneficial Iii chronic debility,
nervous exhaustion, troubles with the
digestive organs, stomach, etc. IL pro
duces quiet and refreshing sleep, and is
recommended to the convaescent. The
company guarantees every bottle to keeI
sweet and sound until it is used.

CAUSE OF THE
THREATENED DEFICII |

From Every Evening OF Yesterday.
An interview with Chairman Kane OF
the City Council F nance Committee by
an Every Evening reporter, printed else
where, gives some details with respect to
the threatened large deficit in the city
finances at the close OF the current fiscal
year.. Tney are interesting in illustrat-
ing these important points: That the
Council, in estimating revenue for the
ensuing year, should be careful not to
include any doubtful assets, and to count
on nothing but what will be actually
available; that when the estimated reve-
nue. is duly ascertained, the tax rate
should be laid at such figures as will
raise enough revenue to meet the ap
preparations; that no money should be
expended except in the manner pro-
vided by law, and that no suggestion of
an irregular expenditure should be con-
sidered.
The latter point is particularly ap-
plicable to the ex Jenditure of S24 600 for
che, redemption of city bends which were
10 ha ye Teen reissued through the Sink
ing Fund, but which was not done by
reason OF the failure of the highest bid
d RS for the Sinking Fund loan to make
good their proposal. The bonds had to
out of the current expense fund, thereby
shortening it to that extent. This mode
of payment was clearly irregular, not to
say illegal. Under the circumstances,
an extraordinary appropriation should
have been made for this payment, as it
was plainly an emergency mot antici-
pated at the time of making the annual
appropriate IS" as the charter says in
providing for appropriations of this
character. By an extraordinary appro-
printion the $24,t00 could have been
borrowed until the next year, and the
consequent drain upon this years cur
rent expense fund avoided.
The payment of this $24, 1000 without
an appropriation to charge it against,
was also an irregular, if not an illegal,
act. The city charter plainly says, in
section 66: 'No money shall be paid
from the treasury unless the same shall
have been appropriated as aforesaid,
and unless the order, or draft for tie
payment of the same shall show upon
its face the head or item of appropria-
tion against which it shall be drawn"
Now, there was no appropriation against
which this order for $2l, 900 could bt
charged, as none had been made for il
in the regular appropriation ordinance
How IL was charged is somewhat OF ;
mystery.
Chairman Kane "hopes that Counci
will be able to close the fiscal year witt
a smaller deficit than now seems proba
be" AS a fact, however, the law doe,
not contemplate any deficit, and distinct
ly prohibits the borrowing OF money o
the creating of any debt or liability tha
cannot be paid out of the taxes, rent
or receipts Of the year for the time thel
CURRENT" and it further binds the mem
bers Of Council by whose votes any liza
biities are contracted and not SO paid
making them jointly and seyerally re
sponsiole for the amount.
The only safe rule for City Council
to make careful and reliable estimat
of revenues for the year, and supple
ment this estimate with a tax rate tha
will cover the appropriations to tn
last dollar, with reasonable margin
Ony by this method can deficits b
avoided.
