Effect OF AGdicksisn in Kent County.
For nearly year tho government of
Kent county has been under tho control
OF Addicks Repuhlicanism, aud already
the effects arc disastrous When tho
Addieks Republican Loyy Court came
balance in the county treasury, and
during the administration OF its i'm
mediate predecessor considerable reduc-
tions ha6 been made in the county
bonded debt Now, after less than a
year OF Addicks Republican rule, the
county TREASURY is empty of money and
the Levy Court is considering the disa
greeable and costly sxpedient Of borrow
ing on note the money necessary to
meet the running expenses of the
county.
The reason for this change is ex-
travagsnt Encouragement of the
county's affairs. So pronounced has
been this mismanagement that Tues
day delegation of leading citizens OF
Duck Greek hundred went before the
Levy Court to enter o protest against
an impracticable and almost useless job
of repairing what is known as the
Lighthouse road iu that hundrt d, which.
estimated Mt first at about 5000, has
already swallowed up $4,000 and will
require about $1,000 more for compile
tion. And it is claimed that the re-
pairs, even when completed, will serve
no real public interest, but only rer-
sonal convenience.
| Here We have two plain and practical
instances of the evil attending the rule
of Addicks Republioanism in Delaware.
In Sussex county it has SO impaired
the credit of the county that an attemrf
to float an issue Of $780, court,
bonds failed 10 attract the offer of /

substituted prohigate expenditures anC

SMALLPOX In SUSSEX County.

1t is fact unpleasant but not to be
disguised-that there is considerable
amount Of smallpox in Sussex county,
particularly in that section of country
lying between Sealord and the Mary
land line. II is admitted that the
disease is on the increase. and that it
probably was fed by the numerous
campmeetings held by colored peupie in
the infected districts.
1t is also a fact that great deal of
smallpox prevails in Chester ard Phila-
delphia. Thus, the city Of Whining
ton has the infection on both sides,
although the infected district in Sussex
county is much farther away from us
than Chester and Philadelphis are.
While the situation is not alarming,
it is one that suggests the advisability
of care and caution. The Board of
Health should do all in it's power to
prevent the spread of the disease to
this city. No measure of precaution
should be neglected.
The last time smallpox prevailed in
this city the Boaid of Health controlled
it in an admirable and effective man
ner. All cases were PROMPTLY isolated,
and this plan, together with other
measures enforced, prevented the spread
Of the disease TO any alarming extent.
Effective work Of this character takeI
in advance by the Board Of Health may
keep Wilmington unaffected, notwith
standing the prevalence of SMALLPOX Ii
Chester and Philadelphia on one hant
and In Sussex county on the other.

why Not "DoIlar Wheat" Now?

Why Not "DoIiar Wheat" Now?
Wheat. we observe by the quotations
of the large exchanges, commands from
~ cents to rs cents per bushel. accord
ing to the time Of delivery, the higher
figures being for next May wheat and
the lower for October. The local
Quotations, representing what the farmer
may obtain for his product. by actual
sales, are 6S cents or 60 cents per bushel,
according to quality.
1t has not been a great many years
since the fact that wheat commanded
less than dollar bushel was made a
grave accusation against the ad-
ministration then in power. and farmers
were assured that dollar wheat''
would rapidly follow change in the
administration. At any rate, they were
urged to hold it as grievance against
the existing administration that wheat
failed to command a dollar bushel,
and to ''yote accordingly at the next
election.
Now that wheat is but 6Sa69 cents
per busheI on delivery, and 72a75 cents
per bushel on speculative account in
the exchanges, are we to blame the
present administration because Of these
low pricesg
Perhaps the prevailing wheat quota
Itions may convince the political orators
and organs who once endeayored t.
make ''dollar wheat" campaign
slogan that there is still some virtue il
the law of supply and demand.
