Innocence.


Now the colt is gayly skipping
Where the happy zephyrs zip,
And his uncomplaining mother
Stands aside to let him skip;
With a blissful satisfaction
Now and then he hoists his heels,
And Il dozen times an hour
Stops awhile to take his meals.
Oh. he doesn't know that men are lying
bleeding in the editches,
And he isn't causing trouble by his greed
for worldly riches;
Not care is on his mind
AS he rises up behind
And permits his lengthy legs to lightly
dangle in the wind.
Oh. the spotted calf is tugging
At its rope, behind the shed,
And displaying wild impatience
And imploring to be fed;
Now the farmers wife approaches
And she bears a trimming pail,
There's frsk of satisfaction
In the baby bossy's tail:
With his nose he bumps the bottom
and he sends the bubbles flying
And he skins the lady's knuckles and
she cuffs him. sadly signing,
But the bossy bumps away,
Knowing not that men today
For little shining metal steal and
strive and scheme and slay.
Oh. the lamblins gayly frolic
In the seven-acre lot.
With their lunches always ready
To he taken on the spot,
And the pig that went exploring
Sadly runs along the fence
And is sending up a protest
That is smournfrl and immense,
While his brothers and his sisters, witt
unbounded satisfaction
Turn and line mp in their places am
forthwith get into action,
Caring nothing for the old.
Worldly struggles after gold
| In the markets where mems honor an'
their lives are hought and sold.

rHE LEVY COURT MuppLE.

The proposed investigation of the do
ings of the Democratic Levy Court Of
this county, brings the Democrats to
the fore demanding Investigations off, the
,loings Of the Levy Court of Kent and
Sussex This is an evidence of fright
and desire for Il counter irrtant 10

modify Judgment of democrats. Every |
Evening reprinting Il demand for an in !
ycstigation of the courts affairs in

Nor should he permit the Levy Court |
of Kent county to escape. untll re-
Gently this body was above scandal, hut
The last election, combined With the
legislation of the last General Assembly,
made it Union Republican body. lm-
mediately charges Of extravaganza and
wrong doing began to ne banded about.
Perhaps an investigation by the at
torney general would nip this evil mat
ter il. fhe bud, and lead to an honest
and economical administration Of the
county's affairs.
Reform in county administration is one
Of the crying needs of this State, and If
Attorney-Genera Ward can secure it.
he will confer lasting favor upon the
long suffering taxpayers.
Indeed. when was anything in this
State. connected with Democratic poll
tics. above scandal? The trouble about
this thing is that scandals are generally
'.banded about by Democrats: and
they never do that until they imagine
that in doing so they will be able to
Smirch some Republicans reputation.
The Democratic Levy Court Of Kent
was not above scandal at any time.
There have been severe criticisms Of
ii. and criticisms that were needed.
About the Sussex county Levy Court.
these Democrats appear to have forgot
ten the Tunnel Whcatly affair in which
The proceeds appropriated by Wheatley.
aud the detection of the fraud by the
Republicans upon their very first ven
ture upon the control Of the Levy Court
Of that county. That occurred under
the control If man whom they after
ward elected governor of the State 1t
is true that poor Whcatley expiated his
crime by suicide, and also true that the
then Clerk Of the Peace made the de-
falcation good. But the Democratic cry
for reform in county administration.
n So; ~ -es.--r-rs u 'fS Ia--4-4

tion and reform unnecessary?
None Of the Levy Courts Of the State
have been long enough under Republi.
can control to get rid Of the methods
Of Democratic administration, much less
to discover and correct the errors oi
their administration. So if there is /:
crying need Of reform in county ad
mniStration III this State the nee,
grows ont Of Democratic ma-admnistra
tion The duty that Mr.. Ward has nm
dcrtaken should have been undertaken
by the late Democratic Attorney Gen
rral. He had the same authority. and
We dare say, far more knowledge Of til
Levy Courts business than Mr.. War
has; and Vet it is the partisans OF thi
drp"sed official that circulate the rumol
about cxtravagancc ana fraud by In
Levy Court
y i really wonderful how onickl
the Democratic party becomes the i,

farewell visit to the railroad building
yesterday and said good-by to those few
who had been associated with him during
his short term in the service of the COM

Fitzhugh, though a pleasant man, was
never very communicative, and a sense

With the appointment of Kruttschnitt
