FRIDAY. MAY ~, 1901


THE Court has declared that the
Adams Tax Law was unconstltu.
tional. which means a big loss IN
revenue to the county, State aud
city. Chief Justice Lore read the
opiniolJudge.B Boy ce dissenting. This
is the result Of action IN assumpslt
brought by the Equitable Guaran-
tee and Trust Company, the plain
tiff, to recover from John p. Dona-
hoe, Collector OF Taxes for the
Northern District OF Wilmington,
the defendant iar certain taxes as
Gessed and collected in 1898 and
1899 against the plaintiff under the
PROVISIONS OF chapter SSl volume
70, of the Laws OF Delaware, pass
ed May 10Th. 1897, entitled IAN act
to equalize taxation Tor State and
county purposes and under the
provisions OF chapter "A, volume II
Of the Laws oil Delaware, approved
May 25th, 1898, entitled an act to
amend chapter 5ol, volume 70 OF
the Laws OF Delaware entitled IAN
act to equallze taxation for State
and county purposes which said
taxes were paid by the plaintiff.
Thus those who own mortgages
and other securities get oft without
having to contribute one dollar to
run the city or county government,
all the burden being put on real
estate which is not right 1t is time
real estate owners asserted them
selves in politics and elected men
who would relieve the real estate
Of this city from some ct its bur
dens. Evidently the whole idea is
to wiring every dollar possible from
real estate and let every other IN
vestment and franchise off without
paying one dollar tribute to run
our city and county government.
Wilmington is behind in Its plan to
raise revenue to run the city gov

IT is positive that the machinists
will strike in our city on Monday
next. This means that upwards oil
1000 men will lay down their tools
and refuse to work unless their
demands are complied with. A
strike is one OF the worst things
that can happen in Wilmington at
this time. 1t is believed that not
single plant will grant the demands
OF the machlnists, which means the
closing down Of every machine snop
i'll the city. Other branches of
trade may be brought IN and one OF
the largest strikes take place that
ever occurred in Wilmington.
Whe ever tits possible the men and
their employers should work togeth-
er for their mutual benefit. The
men contend that the increase in
the necessities of lite and rents,
warrant an increase IN their wages
that it is not necessary to work as
many hours as their grandfathers
did to do as much work with the
labor saving machinery that has
been brought into use; that the
profits in the iron business have
been greatly Increased and that
the bosses carrying on the machine
business can afford to pay the .
per cent increase asked without
any hardship to them and big
help to the men. The worklngman
is the power that keeps the wheels
Of industry moving, but he cant
live without work.
