THERE ARE OTHERS

We venture to assert that there is
one man in the Delaware legislature
who. though a strong and unfinching
Republican. can neither be wheedled
nor bulldozed into voting for Mr.,
Addicks, and that man is Richard I.
Pilling. The uncontaminated honesty
OF his late Uncle John, abides in him
Richard Pilling is not a blatant poll
tician, and, therefore, may not receive
the plaudits of the ''thick and thin
partisans. but he can be depended upon
TO stand by his principles and preserve
his integrity. IL is likely that ne base
proposition win ever be made to him
Delaware Ledger.
Yes. and there are six others who axe
just as staunch and true to Republican
principles as Mr.. Pilling is Nouhini
could induce one of them to give hil
voice or vote to Addicks.

LET 1T BE FAIR

When the committee appointed by
the Legislature examines the books
and vouchers OF State Treasurer Ball
and pronounces them correct;
When that same committee allows
him $3.50 for extra services and attor-
ney fees;
When State Treasurer Burris refuses
to accept that $3.50 from DR.. Ball
when the legality OF the allowance is
called into question;
when State Treasurer Burris denies
absolutely that he has any claim what
ever against DIR. Ball, and that all talk
Of a suit is absurd;
When DR.. Ball comes out In a frank,
manly statement in which he says that
he does not propose to touch the So
$50 until the next Legislature shall
have passed upon his right to II;
IL seems to us that the Dover Index
which has been singularly blind to
extra allowances made to Democratic
officials in the past. can afford to be
fair and not attempt TO screen Itself
and its slander behind split hairs and
senseless personal illusions.
II DR.. Ball had followed Democratic
precedent he would have showed that
$3.50 down In his pocket and made
neither explanation nor reservation.
Thousands OF dollars OF the peoples
money have gone to Democratic favor
ties. not far removed from the Dover
Index. for extra services, and we chal-
lenge it to show line OF criticism In
connection Herewith.

One OF the clerical members OF VIII
mlnglon Methodist Episcopal Confer
ence wishes to put that body on /.
purely business basis when 1t comes 70
the matter OF the entertainment OF It's
members during the annual sessions
which usually last n week. He sug-
gests that all future sessions OF the
conference be held In Wilmington and
that each minister pay his board in
stead of becoming the guest of some
family. AT present the place of meet
ing is changed every year, and It is
usual for the several towns to contend
fer the honor OF entertaining the con-
Ference free OF all expense to the Wis
itors The minister who wants to ere
ate a permanent place OF meeting and
system of board and lodging payments
argues that there is no good reason
why any church or town should enter
tain 200 men free for a week. His sug-
gestion Is practical, but we doubt that
II Will appeal strongly to Methodists
outside Wilmington. for in conference
matters they have strong sentiments
They believe in an itinerant conference
and unbounded hospitality while II
lasts Those sentiments must be over
come before any plan of the kind sug'
gestod will be acceptable.
