The total receipts of the government
for the fiscal year ended June Both,
1900, were s56S, 9ss, 94s. The total ex-
penditures were s4s7, 759, Ill. This
shows a surplus of ss1, 229, TIT, the
largest since 1890 The largest item of
receipts was from internal revenue
taxes, which yielded 1926, 900, 1858, being
an excess of S22, 1862, 227 over the re-
ceipts from the same source last year.
This represents, says the New York
World. the still unrelieved and in
creasing burden of the special war taxes.
The receipts from customs amounted
to 1928, s57, 95s, an increase over thu
preceding fiscal year Of 1928, 729, ST.
The leading items of the years ex
penditures are for army, navy and pen
sions. The army and navy spent be
tween them s190,7i3, lat, which i
sl07, 200, QUO more, in round figures
than they spent in 1897, the year pre-
cediag the Spanish war. The disburse
ments for pensions foot up sl40, sT5. 900
which Is nearly $500, 600 more tina
for the preceding fiscal year.

HOIleRt Men Must stanu hVbcti't' hfF
In an editorial describing the politi-
cal situation in Delaware this year,
the Delaware Democrat Of Georgetown
says
There is one method left by which
this result may BIO avoided and the neo
pIe saved from the evil that would de-
stroy them. In the time Of a common
danger il is folly for divisions to take
place and for oil to stand by their
prejudices, when by a union OF all and
united attack the danger may be
ayerted and all saved. The only way for
| US new to act Is for all honest and true
men to stand together, and by the Donli-
| nation of those In whom all can have
| trust and confidence draw to them all
| good NEE as against thnse who support
| tho party Of corruption on the other
side. In single word the latter may
be summed up In the term Addioks-
ism. and what honest man can hesitate
| to which side he will be allied.
The sheep must be separated from
the goats and then the result will not
be doubtful.
This is suund and practical advice,
thnt should commend itself to every
honest citizen of the State.
The one issue that stands beyond all
others in Delaware Is whether Mr.. j.
Edward Addicks shall To permitted to
tase seat 10 the Senate of the United
States as a Sena tor from Delaware, The
methods that have been employed
for the advancement of his interests arr
we'll known. Their denioraiziDg ant
degrading effects were made NANTES
at the last session Of the Legislature
when men elected to that body by thu
votes OF their fellow -oitizens as repre-
sentatives Of everything opposed to tn
J policies of the Addicks Republican
party, deliberately betrayed their con
} stituents by voting for him for Senator
! That they were induced to do thi
, despicable thing by the corruption Q
money there can be no doubt.
: More determined than ever, and on
. couraged by the recognition of hi
party faction by the Republican Ma
tional Convention, Mr.. Addicks is mo-
E engaged 10 campaign which he In
5 tends shall bring HIM to the goal of hi
S ambition by insurine his election to tn
Senate The honest voters of Della
ware can defeat HIM only by uniting
: common purpose. No question I
g party politics should be permitted
r interfere with this union. If vote fc
!. Democratic candidate for the Legi
lature. or vote for Republican col
j didate, will promise to secure the d
d sired result, it should not be withel'
o The main thing Is to elect Legislatu
10 which will not send Mr.. Addicks
d the Senate.
ir In such a cause honest voters Of Del
ware, without regard to party, shou
not hesitate to unite.

There is reason for the belief that
the Levy Court of New Castle county,
like the City Council OF Wilmington,
is banking on "rainpow assets" in
order TO keep the county tax rate at its
present figures, GO cents on the 800.
1t estimates as revenues S13,5S2
from capitation tan and S1l, All. SO
from the Adams Tax Law; and yet the
collectors have thus far made practi-
eally no effort to collect capItation tax
other than from owners of property,
while the revenue from the Adams
Tax law is likely to be tied up in
court for two or three years longer.
However, as the Levy Court has ad.
hered to the present tax rate, there II
nothing to prevent it from exercising
due economy during the coming fisca
year, and so make both ends meet, ever
without the contemplated revenue from
capitation tax and the Adams law. Blu
| it will have tc make radical depart
uro from previous methods Ia order t.
do this.

A Penn's Grove, N. j., special to
the Philadelphia Ledger states that
'unless propagation is resorted to,
sturgeon fishing in the Delaware Bay
and River will soon be thing of the
paat. Such is the opinion of the
sturgeon fishermen who have for
several years past been engaged in the
sturgeon fishing business. The number
of sturgeon caught and shipped from
Greenwich Piers aud Bayside is said to
be less than 1000, as against over 2, l00
during the season Of 1893, while the
number OF kegs of caviar from these
two points this year was about 300, and
last year over 600. . This outlook is moi
very encouraging, but there Is ample
profit in the sturgeon industry to
warrant resort to propagation In
order TO keep up the supply.
