Tha Other Point Of View

TO De a little girl or ten
Seems nice enough-to boys and men
wonder If They've ever tried
To argue from the other side?
don't suppose they'd ever guess
The stiffness of a starched white dress;
/ wonder how they'd like the hooks
Let alone the way It looksl
They'd never sit at home aud sew,
And watch their brothers come and go;
should not even like to say
That they would bear it for a dayl
They do not know, how hard it seems
To be a girl still, in ones dreams,
To feel that one can never be
A drummer boy, or go to sea.
Our brothers say we're hard to please
Because we long for things like these;
They think 1t is a pleasant life
To wait until you're some ones wife.
When I'm a wife I'll gladly sit
AT home, and cook and sew and knit;
But there's a lot of waiting when
You're but a little girl of ten.
Our brothers do not seem TO know
That waiting can be very slow;
You see, they've never really tried
To argue from the other side

BYRNE's PoETIC FIlCHT

The editor of the Evening Telegraph,
of Philadelphia, versatile and we'll
informed, staunch in his Republican
ism. and sound in ethics, keeps his eye
on the Delaware situation. In a lead
ing editorial on Saturday he punctures
the William Michael Byrne bubble, and
lets out the gas. IL runs as follows:
The Delaware factional fight shows
spasmOdic evidences OF vitality, even
In these hot summer days. The latest
ebullition is in the shape of a deliev-
erance OF United States District At
tOrney Byrne, who found the Wash
ington correspondents ready to listen
to his talk. and report IL at length, in
the absence of more exciting political
matter. The burden of the District
Attorneys talk is a mixture OF taify
for Colonel DUPONT and apology for
Gasman Addicks. Mr.. Byrne is to be
commended for wishing to see Re
publican victory at the polls in Della
ware in the fall. and the filling OF the
two vacant seats in the Senate with
good and true Republicans. Hisschemes
for breaking the deadlock, however,
lcontemplates the possibility-the prob
liability, rather-of putting Gasman Ad-
dicks into one of these vacant chairs,
land that would be a calamity alike to
the state OF Delaware and 10 the Re
publican party for which the election
OF Colonel DUPONT TO the other seat
would fall far short of being a reason
liable compensation.
Mr. Byrne contends that Colonel Du-
HuI,f
Delaware would suffer by the success
of Addicks from seat in the Senate
than he could contend against them
from the retirement OF his. country
home amid the groves and hills ol
lChristiana hundred" This idea is very
= prettily-almost POLITICALLY expressed
by the eloquent District Attorney, but
! his position on thesenatorship is predi'
? Gated on the assumption that there are
worse calamites possible for the STATE
of Delaware than the election of Gas
I man Addicks to the Senate. This is al
{ assumption TO which the genuine Re
lpublicans of Delaware cannot listen 70
q moment without stultifying them
selves. and without incurring the re
y lproach of having wilfully endangere
e without sufficient cause. There is bu
J. one excuse for the position which ha
= been so long and so unfiinchingly main
tanned by the Regular Republicans c
Delaware. and that is the contento
IL that Gasman Addicks is unfit to repre-
le sent Delaware in the Senate Of n
IL United States. The Gasman is the SAN
+, sort OF a gasman now that he was
the beginning. and has been through
." out his struggle for senatorial honOri
- no can no more change his charact'
Id and his methods than the leopard cs
no change his spots. Mr.. Byrne ther
oo fore has taken his pOetical flight

A NEW CHARTER

City Council has taken upon itself
the task of drafting a new charter for
this city. TO be presented TO the next
Legislature We wish IL all sue
cess in its undertaking. Our cities are
growing so rapidly that municipal gov
eminent becomes a most important
problem. AS many matters OF gov
ernment are left to the several States,
20 there is a feeling that the cities
should not be subject to the whim Of
Legislatures, many of the members o.
which are not versed in the needs OF
large municipalities, and who are not
in symapthy with them.
Every good government is so organ
lied that responsibility can be easil
placed. If under such a system tn
terms Of office are brief, then the peo
pie find a remedy at hand. Our pres
ent charter provides for too many dc
partments, and under il, it is Difficult
to find any responsible head. tn
various commissions should be abo
ished. This position may be mail
tanned without reference to those nc
discharging the duties of these bodie

Impersonating Notorious outlaw.
Seattle, Wash, July 29.-William
Nixon tried to win a woman's conf
dence in the guise of outlaw Tracy
and is nearly dead as a result Of his
act. He told an actress in a music
hall that he was none other than the

DELAWARE

II there is newspaper that may be
regarded as the organ of the Admins
tration. that organ is the New York
sun. Referring to the recent visit Of
William Michael Byrne, of this city, to
Oyster Bay in the interests OF Addicks,
tho sun says:
ono of thezrecent visitors to Oyster
Bay has submitted this proposition;
Tho Republicans of Delaware, or, to
put it more broadly, the Republican
party at large, must surrender TO Ad-
dicks.
Twice has this Mr.. Addicks pre-
vented lne election of Republican
senator. and at present he is prevent
ing the election OF two Republican
senator's. each time insisting that he
must be made senator himself.
Should the Republican party make
the corrupt bargain which Addicks Of
fers them-for corrupt is the correct
term-in order to get one OF its mem
bors elected senator from Delaware?
Can Addicks promise to support the
Republican party justify, even as a
matter of partisan expedlency. the
proposed treaty with him?
Tho Republican party was born after
Aduicks. and in the nature of things
it ought to live longer. The way to
long life, however cannot lie along the
Addicks ROAD.
The sun makes the point that instead
OF the surrender Of the Republicans of
Delaware. the Republican party at
largo is now called upon TO adopt Ad-
dicksism. IL is not enough TO insult
the loyal men of Delaware by asking
them to send to the Senate a notorious
character. but the Administration is
urged to stultify itself and to apply all
its power and influence 10 compel these
Republicans 10 commit a wrong. II
will take a more eloquent tongue thar
that of a.. Byrne to accomplish thi.
purpose

Boating has become a popular way
in which TO spend a short vacation
with many people in this city. For a
days pleasure, there is a large number
OF Wilmington people who like moth
ing better than a sail on the water in
a swift yacht or cruise in a comfort
able launch. SO popular, indeed, has
tnis pleasure become, that Whining
tons water front is swarming with
launches and small sailing craft. There
is on spot, however, which, owing to
ita convenient location, and the facil-
titles which It offers, finds more favor
among the watermen than any other.
That is the ground just northwest Of
Eleventh street bridge, along the Brap-
oywinc, and commonly known as the
Orchard" The ground received its
name from a few apple trees which
grew within the enclosure and which
sprouted from seeds blown there by the
winds.
This place was chosen some years
ago Dy Jack" Sullivan, who built
cabins and hired boats. Men would
collect there during their leisure time
and family, a boat club was formed.
This was known as the Water Lily
Boat Club. and elected James Cameron
as its first president. A permit was
then obtained to have the grounds en-
closed and from that time On, the
number of private boat houses, boat
clubs and boats increased at the "Or-

own a cabin at the Orchard. but to-
day there are about twenty-five there
There are about twenty clubs which
average fifteen members each.
For those who love the water these
clubs are ideal. and even for those who
care nothing for it, there is interest in
a visit to the place.
Each club has its own cook, each
famous in his own right for some
toothsome dish, and each cook yiel
