HAIL GLORIOUS FOURTH

Tomorrow We shall celebrate th'
glorious Fourth. A century and a quar-
ter has passed since this nation was
born, and IN This brief period we have
become first in all that makes for hui
man progress.
Il has been the custom from the days
OF the revolution for local orators TO
regard the immortal Declaration as a
successful defiance OF England. In a
sense. 1t was this. but 1t was something
more.
II was the elimination OF the Anglo
Saxon spirit which demanded the
right Of self-government, and which
had already shorn the crown of its
most cherished prerogatives. 1t had Sc
cured the Magma Charta. trial by jury.
and the habeas corpus act It's crown
ing victory was to be achieved in thc
newer England on this side Of the
water
1t took moro than hundred years
for as 20 properly estimate the full
meaning OF the revolutionary struggle,
that II was not contest primarily
with the English people, but with an
unreasonins monarch. .perverse and arbi-
trary. Wo should mover forgot that
we had the sympathy OF many OF the
leading statesmen OF the nation with
which we were at war, and the middle
sciasses eympashized with our determl-
nation to resist
The principles OF the Declaration
were more in keeping with tho Eng
lish, than with acknowledgements
and the fact thar one was the friend
and the other the enemy was due largo
~ to the political necessities OF the
time.
But regarded from any point OF
view, it was glorious day, when al
despised body OF men. composed of
farmers country lawyers and doctors
met to form a nation. and, incidentally
to defy the most powerful monarchy
OF the world. They knew that their
pledge must be made good, or there
was a halter awaiting each signer.
The story is an old one. but win
never be fully told--how they fought
how they suffered, and how, noblestI
OF all, they endured defeat. History
will never make 1t out. They were a
mere handful, widely scattered, unarm
ed and undisciplined. But someway the
result was victory.

from every point OF vantage. Cannon

FOR some purpose, and in the proper

Forge, Lexington and Monmouth. Let
us remember the heroism of our
fathers as the most splendid example OF
human prowess Of modern times.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
New Castle Council RenIles


TO the Editor of the Evening Journal.
Sir: Kindly give me space TO CORRECT
some of the misstatements Of Assessor
Duncan's. which appeared in last even
ing's issue of TINS paper
In the first place Mr.. Duncan appeared
before Counsel nt regular meeting and
stated that he sid not want the old as
sessnent but would make house to
house assessment and requested Council
10 allow him S25 extra for this work
Council agreed to allow him the amount,
provided he made general assessment.
Now Mr.. Duncan says he made a house
to house assessment. VIII he please
state why on the first night Of appeals,
at least twenty property holders who
were in the Council chamber stated tat
Assessor Duncan had never been near
them 10 ascertain anything about their
property, and hundreds OF citizens in the
city have made the same statement This
it seems is conclusive proof that the as
SCISSOR did not make general assess
ment. Mr.. Duncan in one breath ex-
claims. Il raised the assessment on the
National Tube Company s42.50O and low
cred the assessment on other properties
in town $4,000. We fail To see where
the city treasury profited much by his
transaction. Then again. when Council
allowed Mr. Duncan to have the books
after hs had turned them in it was no.
ticsd that when he returned them the sec
ond time. that he had done the tamper-
ing ana had made many changes.
The assessor says there are no names
Of dead persons on his list la answer ia
the above assertion we simply say there
are several such names and scores OF
others who have long since removed from
the town. The books are in evidence Ia
prove this The assessor goes on ni
length TO tell the citizens how he lowered
the assessment on their respective prop
critics. bat he hasn't word in expana.
tion why he raised the assessment on
widows and orphans. On ths property Of
one widow a raise Of 81, 300 was made In
this respect he showed lack OF good judg
ment. Again he states that houses ant
stables that were not assessed before ne
assessed them. He might have added
that they will never be assessed again ~
they are not in existence and had to be
stricken from the list. The assessed
| states that the book that hung i'm the
mayors Office was not his assessments
In the name Of heaven, will he please
| state whose it isl He certainly handed II
in as his work and now he quietly steps
from under ard refuses to accept any re-
! sronsiblity in the matter thereby show
! ing that he failed TO meet the require
ments that 90 tO make even a fairly good
assessor.
