The Clubs Growth

The Country Club is the outgrowth Of
the old Delaware Field Club. and Is COM
posed Of prominent people OF this section.
The original field club grounds were on
West Twenty-fhird street, and Il was
more OF a tennis club than anything cl7e.
From this place the club went to ils-
mere, where grounds were purchased and
n clubhouse erected. The cost OF the club
house and Improvements made was about
10000. Tennis, cricket baseball and foot
ball first received attention, but the club
took up golf and then found that the
grounds were not large enough
In August, 1901, the Wilmington coun-
try Club was organized 70 take the place
OF the Delaware Field Club. The tract OF
land was leased from William DUPONT for
ten years, with the privilege of renewing
the lease for fifteen years. The land Is
situated on the kennett pike just west OF

sion, Senor de Ulloa has caused presi-
dent three counsellors and a secretary
nominated for that purpose, to take
cognizance Of facts which belonged to
the jurisdiction of the Superior Coun-
ell, and In which French citizens were
concerned. Often did discontents and
disgusts seem to force you to resign
your places but you have always con-
sidered 1t as a duty of your station Of
| counsellors to the Most Christian King
to alleviate and calm the murinurs of
the oppressed citizens. The love of
your country and the sense of the JUS
tice due to every citizen who applies
for 1t have sustained your zeal. 1t has
| always been rendered with the same
exactness. although you have never
thought proper to make representa-
tions of the infractions of the act Of
cession. You have always feared to
give encouragement to u mass of dis
contented people, threatened with the
most formidable calamtes; but now
the whole body of the planters, merch-
ants and other inhabitants of Louisl-
ana apply to you for justice. Let us
now proceed to an accurate and scru-
pulous examination of the grievances.

in the representations Of the planters,
merchants and other inhabitants.
What sad and mournful pictures do
these statements call up before you?
The scourge of the last war, suspen-
sion to this day of the payment Of
seven millions of the kings paper
money, issued to supply the calls of the
service and received with confidence
by the inhabitants of the colony had
obstructed the ease and convenience Of
the currency, but the activity and in
dustry of the planter and of the French
merchant had almost overcome all
difficulties. The most remote corners
of the territories held by the savages
had been discovered; the fur trade had
been carried to it's highest develop
ment; the new culture of cotton joined
to that of indigo and tobacco, secured

cargoes to those who were engaged in
fitting out ships. The commissioners
Of His Catholic Majesty had promised
ten years of free trade--that period be-
ing sufficient for every subject Of
France attached to his sovereign lord
and king. But the tobacco of this coll
ony being prohibited in Spain, where
Havana tobaccos alone are allowed:
our timber. a considerable source of
the income of the inhabitants being
useless to Spain, which Is furnished
with this article by its possessions:
and the indigo being inferior to that Of
Guatemala which supplies more than is
requisite for the, manufactures Of
Spain, the returns for the commodities
of this colony to the peninsula became
a ruinous trade, and the inhabitants
were delivered UP to most deplorable
misfortune. His Catholic Majesty's
commissioner had publicly declared the
impossibillty of this country's trading
with Spain; all patronage, favor and
encoura cement were formally prom
ised to the inhabitants; the title Of pro-
tector was decreed to Senor Ulloa; the
hope and the activity necessary to the
success of the planter were nourished
by the faith and confidence reposed in
these assurances Of the Spanish COVER
nor. But by the effect of what un-
determining and imperceptible fatal
ity have we seen house worth twenty
thousand livres sold for six thousand,
and plantations suddenly lose one-half
to two-thirds of their intrinsic value?
Fortunes waste away: specie Is scarcer
than ever; confidence is lost, discour-
agement becomes general; the MOURN
full appeals of distress are heard on
every side.''
This, with the remainder of the ad-
dress, was adopted by the council as
a part of the decree of expulsion issued
against ulloa, Oct. 20, 176S. The coun-
Gil, although at the time a revolutions
ary body, issued the decree in the name
of the King of France, with the usual
legal forms.

EXCLUSIVE OFFER
TO YOUNG WOMEN
A Scholarship Which the Young
Lady, Who Is Highest in the List
of Contestants at the Close, Is Sure
of Winning,

of Contestants at the Close, Is Sure
of Winning.
No young man in The Tribune's Edu-
cational Contest can select the scholar
ship in the Wilkes Barre Institute as
special reward, as only young ladies
are admitted to that institution. This
makes it absolutely certain that some
young lady among the list of contest
ants will secure this valuable reward,
no matter how many young men finish
ahead of her. OF course there are other
scholarships which are open to both
young men and young women, but this
is exclusively for the latter and 1T is
well worth securing. 1t does not in
clude board and room, but this is hard
ly necessary as the student can reside
at home and easily go to and from
school daily.
Twenty-eight of the thirty three
scholarships offered are availa BILE to the
young ladies In the contest, among
them being those in Syracuse univer-
sity, Williamsport Dickinson Semi
nary, Dickinson Collegiate Preparatory
School, Keystone Academy, School of
the LackaWanna, and the Cotuit Cot
tages. There is a great opportunity
for some of the young ladies here, and
parents and friends of those who are
now in the contest, or who may enter
later, should do all that they can to
encourage them in their efforts to Sc
cure an advanced education.
Early in the contest the ladies did
not take very active interest, but they
are beginning to realize what Is within
their reach. Last year 1t was young
lady who was at the very top when the
contest ended, and it is quite possible
for the same result to be accomplished
this year before the contest closes on
October 25, Twelve weeks before the
close the young lady who won last
year had not scored a point, and the
present contest has still eleven weeks
to run. There may be some wonderful
changes before these eleven weeks are
passed.
This would indicate that there is still
time to enter, and the best months for
making canvass are still ahead.

I'm VIEW of the closely succeeding
events in American history. the
declaration of republican princl-
\ pies by Lafreniere constitute u
most interesting and remarkable
document This declaration was is
sued at New Orleans, Oct 30, 176S. 1t
Is the preamble to the statement of
grievances made by Lafreniere, as at
torney general and senior member Of
the Superior Council Of the colony Of
Louisiana, at session of the council
on the date above given. Following Is
the text of the declaration:
Without population there can be no
commerce, and without commerce no
population. In proportion to the ex-
tent of both Is the solidity Of thrones.
Both are fed by liberty and competi-
ton which are the nursing mothers Of
the state, of which the spirit of mo-
nopoly is the tyrant and stepmother.
Without liberty there are but few vir-
tues. Despotism breeds pLsillanimity
and deepens the abyss Of vices. Man
Is considered as SHINING before God
only because he retains his free will.
Where is the liberty of our planters,
Of our merchants, Of all our inhabit-
ants? Protection and benevolence
have given way to despotism. A sim
gle authority seeks to absorb and an
nihilate everything. Without running
the risk of being taxed with guilt, no
man of any class can longer do any,
thing but tremble, bow his neck to
the yoke and kiss the ground. The
Superior Council, bulwark Of the tram
guilty of virtuOus citizens, has sup
ported itself only by the combined
forces Of the probity and disinterest-
edness of it's members and of the con-
fidence of the people in that trib-
unal.
Without taking possession of the COL
ony. without registering as was neces-
sary, in the Superior Council his titles
and patents according to the laws,
forms and customs of the colony, and
without presentation of the act Of ces-
