is THERE ANY HONORG

The Wilmington Sun says editorially
upon the theory that every man has hi:
price, it may be set down that every mar
may be bought. 1t follows, as logical Sc
quence, that those who are not bought
either hold themselves at a price beyond
their value, or are not worth the buying al
any price"
This is the insulting opinion OF
the chief organ Of ]. Edward
Addicks. This is the paper
which is misrepresenting Re
publicans in Delaware. This
paper demands the election OF
Addicks to the Senate by the aid
and consent Of all Republicans
or its party will turn over the
State to the Democrats as it
turned over the city Of Whining
ton : to that party last June.
That is their intention. They
will buy Republicans where they
can, and bribe Democrats to
gain their point.
With the Sun not only "Every
man has his price" but every
woman also. That is the
conclusion. Bah! Can honest
men and virtuous women in any
Way endorse such belief?

Need Not Kneel When PRAYING

latter day Methodists in departing from the

of observing" the kneeling attitude. On a
vote the more easy leaning of the body to-

proved.
The General Conference on Wednesday

of increasing the number of bishops precip-

Lore participated in the debate. He said.
The question is "Are more bishops necesr

win souls, no matter what the additional
work of the episcopacy is. I am willing to

The Nitrogen Supply.

All nitrogen available for human use
is taken from the air by certain bac-
terra (very lowly organized microscopic
plants). The sole function of these nj.
trifying bacteria seems to be to take
the free nitrogen and combine it into
such simple chemical substances s-e. g.,
tHs ditrates-as can be utilized as food
by che higher plants. Through the ac-
tion of the nitrifying bacteria only can
nitrogen be made available for the
higher plants and finally for man
through the agency of the higher plants.
Thus it is seen why the nitrogen avail
able for human economy, though abso-
lutely Indispensable, is limited in
amount and produced only by very
costly process. W. Field.
