In Kent county the Addicksites ex-
press great indignation because Super
visor of the Census Willis mas APP
pointed two Democratic enumerators
in Duck Greek hundred, and because
the new janitor of the post office in Do
YER is a Democrat. There is not a state
in the Union in which the minority
party is not being recognized by the
majority party in the matter of max
ing census appointments. Supervisor
Willis merely is obeying general or
ders not to make the census work par
tlsan in its character With respect
to the Dover post Office janitorship
the office is under the civil service, ant
the Democrat who obtained the place
was high man on the list Postmaster
Casson had no alternative in the mat
ter. True to their instincts, the Ad
dicks leaders would have both Super
visor Willis and Postmaster Cassoi
break the law But, even If they did
what would &c avail the Addicksites
Certainly no follower Of the corrup
Zionist and disruptionist would be per
mitted TO profit by IL.

REspEcT THE COURT.

Respect for the judiciary always has
been marked characteristic Of Della
wareans. From childhood IL is instill-
ed into their minds that the bench
Of Delaware is worthy OF their conf
dence and respect In but few in-
stances has that confidence been abused
or betrayed. OF all the members Of the
judiciary as it is constituted at pres
ent. none stands higher in public con-
ndence and respect than does Chancel-
lor Nicholson. The breath of private
or public scandal never has touched
him Whatever men may think of the
.soundness or unsoundness OF his de-
termination OF the litigation between
the Wilmington City Railway Com
pany and the Wilmington and Brandy
wine Springs Railway Company. all
viii admit that in rendering that de-
cision he was actuated by a motive
which was honest in every respect. AS
an appeal has been taken, the sound
ness of his decision will be tested I'm an
appellate court before judges who are
as honest and as sincere as Chancellor
Nicholson is I'm all Of his official acts.
We believe that public sentiment is
Overwhelmingly in favor Of permitting
not only the Wilmington and Brandy
wine Springs Railway Company but
all other responsible companies to have
free access to the central portions Of
our city to take on and discharge pas
sengers. That is not unnatural for
traffic agreements and transfers as they
at present exist mean two fares to the
travellers. When the Wilmington and
Brandywine Springs Railway Com
pany tells the people of Wilmington
that a central terminus will enable It
to carry passengers from one end of its
line to the other for five cents. but that
under its traffic agreement with the
Wilmington City Railway Company
such passengers must pay ten cents to
get from Wilmington to the beautiful
pleasure resort which 1t maintains, it
lappeals to the pocket and nothing can
swing the sentiment from the open door
policy with respect to trolley roads.
But the old company has vested
rights which must be respected when
It comes to a legal determination of its
status in this city Chancellor Mich
olson could not be swayed by public
sentiment He was in duty bound to
take the charters, and supplements
thereto. Of the two companies. together
with all laws bearing on each, and
then weigh the matter carefully, coolly
and conscientiously from a strictly le-
gal point of view We believe he did
il, and that in reaching his decision
there was not a selfish or interested
thought in his mind. Should that de-
cision stand the test Of the searching
scrutiny Of the appellate court it viii
be incumbent upon the Wilmington
and Brandywine Springs Railway Com
lpany to take such steps as shall be con
formable TO the law.
