II am opposed to the election of Sena-
tors by direct popular vote. We need to
DO very conservative In tlnkering the
Constitution AS tho responsibilities Of
the Federal Government Increase and as
Its duties toward tho present and the
future grow graver Its legislative branch
should retain the check upon hasty or i'm
petuous action now afforded by the com
position OF tho Senate. That check may
sometimes hinder desirable legislation.
But the majority, II right, will nave Its
way to the end.
''The trouble with tue present method
Of eiecting United States Senators 10 that

SPEAKING of pawn brokers We

SPEAKING of pawn brokers We
have been tod that they are allow
ed to charge their victime 6per cent
per month or Y Per cent year.
Now anybody with any sense knows
that this is robbery OF the worst
kind and that nobody can pay such
rates OF interest and keep body aud
soul together. The law should pro-
hibit any scch eXorbltant rates and
drive persons ASKING it out of the
business. Az We stated in for
mer article on this subject, we have
no faith whatever in pawn brokers
or their methods OF business. No
business is honest where more than
B per cent is eXac ted from the peo-
pie and it is the poor people who
pay these sharks. The poor, when
they get hard up, pledge with these
Shylocks, their jewelry, househ old
goods and personal articles OF wear
which they expect to redeem when
a better day comes AS is gener.
ally the case. the better day does
not arrive and their pledges are
sold, the heartless pawn broker
loaning one.siXth itsvalue and then
receiving the balance on dlsposlng
OF the articles pledged There is
no other business SO profitable. and
it is better than the banking bust
ness, under which 1t IS allowed TO
be carried on in Wilmington. There
should be some kind OF supervis-
ion over these human vultures which
would make them conduct their
business on better plan than they
are doing. This is a matter that
interests every man, woman and
child who have the good Of the poor
at heart.

HAD ANNUAL BANK WALK.
Cherry Island Marsh Directors In
spect the River Front.

The directors of the Cherry Island
Marsh Co. including William Lawton,
William II. Sellers, Isaac Talley, j. AT
wood Weldin, John II. Tallcy, Howard
II. Wallace and Isaac G. Elliott, met
yesterday morning and took their annual
bank walk. At o'clock the party, ac-
companied by c. =. Macarthur, repre-
senting the Pennsylvania Railroad Co.,
which owns some of the river front land,
left Edge Moor and proceeded along the
Delaware to the Christiana lighthouse,
thence to the mouth of the Brandywine
and along the banks Of that stream to
the Pullman Palace Car Co.'S Works.
The banks were found TO be in excellent
condition, little damage being done dur
ing the winter owing probably to the
fact that there were no severe storms.
A marked improvement was shown over
that of last year and it is estimated that
the repairing will not cost more than
$50. The assessment will therefore be
about 9 cents per acre which is $50 cents
less than last year.

High Lie Inebriety,

York, Pa, March 25.-In his Fl
nal sermon preceding the meeting
OF conference, the Rev. Mr., Stevens.
pastor of the Duke Street Methodist
Chui CHI. last night referred to and
denounced what he termed inebriety
in high life at York, particularly
among society women.
The sermon was based on the
story of David Staying Goliah, and
the preacher compared some Of the
evils of the day to giants which
ought to be slain. After counseling
the young people to avoid such IN
dulgences as lying and reading
novils, he said there was another
giant and his name was Rum. Such
a hold had this giant obtained upon
the people, he SAID, that not ONLY
did the curse exist among men, but
many of the gentler sex had sue
cumbed to inebriety. He referred
to this as a fact we'll known.

THE New Jersey Legislature has
adjourned and one OF the first laws
to be tested was that Of the anti.
election act passed by the last Leg
islature. The stitutiona atty of
the act was taken into the Court Of
Errors and Appeals, which by a
vote of II to | sustained it. The
effect of the decision will be 10
abolish spring elections in all cities
OF the state and will continue all
officers OF those cities in their ottices
until the 1st OF January following
the time when their terms would
have expired if the antispring cleo
tion law had lot been passed. The
bill also extends the terms Of all
members OF county boards OF free
holders elected from cities. The
Legislature is not supreme, but they
are the law making power OF every
STATE and what they do generally
goes.

ADJUSTMENTS.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE,

There is freshness as OF spring,
asweetuess as OF June, about Shore
Acres. that will keep it warm in the
affections Of the theatre going pub
lie for many season yet unlocked.
1t will become old only as do the
classics and standards Of the
stage, which renew their youth
with each succeeding generation OF
play-goers, As long as the story
Of human life and love remains TO
betold people will listen to ashore
Acres. - No other play known to
the modern stage 1epicto so wildly
the Irresistible, all conquering
power Of unseliish love and noble
self-sacritice. Its permanence on
the American stage is one OF the
things, not over numerous, that re-
fleets credit upon it.
While the inherent merit OF the
piece is responsible in great part
Tor its continued prosperity and
popularity, there are also largely
attributable to the excellent stand
ard of production at which 1t has
been maintained. The company
which is now appearing IN "shore
Acres has, with butfew exceptions
been seen in the piece for many
years. James T. Galloway the
well known character actor, will
appear as Nathaniel Berry, and
his artistic Interpretation will be
ably seconded by the twenty other
well known players Of this organi.
cation. Shore Acres will be given
at the Opera House on Thursday
night.
