Partlsanship in public Advertising.

Partisanship In Public Advertising.
The official ballots for Kent county
are printed in the Dover Index,
Democratic paper, and in the Dover
State Sentinel, paper of the Union
Republican persuasion.
In the Index the ballot is printed
with a GROSS mark under the device of
the Democratic ticket, Just as bal
lot would be marked by a voter for
voting the Democratic ticket. In the
State Sentinel, "a cross appears near
the device of the Union Republican
ticket, just as the ballot would be
marked by voter for voting the Union
Republican ticket. Thus, both of these
papers are using the official publica-
tion of the official ballot as means of
instructing the voters Of their re.
spective political parties hsw to vote.
We take it that both papers are
wrong. The official publication of the
official ballot is made for the purpose
of public instruction, as means of
informing the people with respect to
the candidates who are running for the
various offices to be filled at the cleo
tion. To divert this publication into
partisan purposes, as these two Dover
papers have done, is manifestly wrong.
We have not observed this radical de-
parture in any other papers in which
the official ballots are printed.

A Washington special states that the
promoters of irrigation by government
aid are delighted by the announcement
made by General Land Commissioner
Hermann that the receipts from the
sale Of public lands has SO increased
that with the close of the last fiscal
year the fund for irrigation purposes
amounts to 81, 100000. The sales of
public lands last year exceeded those
of any single year in tho history of the
government The aggregate cash re-
ceipts were in excess of 50, 500, 900. In
1897 the cash receipts in the General
Land Office from sales of land were less
than $1,000, 600. Prior to that veal
they were much lower. Mr.. Hermann
assumes that the land sales next veal
will be not far frou what they were
last, AND about s6, COO, 900 will be added
to the irrigation fund, making it ovel
1900, 600.

Durham Herald, Feb. 2O.1

Il is learned that citizene living in
Orange county, near the Durham
county line. will get MP a petition
soon and ask the Legislature that
they be taken into Durham county.
According to a statement male 10
the reporter by ar old citizen of OF
ange county the strip that will ask
tor admission is from one half 10
three or four miles in width. running
the entire length of the county # ON
Person 10 Chatham.
The gentleman who gave this IN
formation said that the citizens liv
ing near. the Durham lioc, at leas,
many OF them, want the next Leg,s.
la'ure to change the county line
from Person county by the old
Dickson mill to University Station
and with the Chapel Hill railroad 30
Chapel Hill and then straight Oh Ia
the Chatham county line, this giving
Chapel Hill to Durham county. OF
course a great many living 10 this
distric: would obj CT 10 the change
1T the line but it il said that a very
large number wan: the change.
When asked why the people oi
that section wanted to get into DIR.
ham county he said that there were
many reasons. In the first place, ha
said, many of the people do their
shopping here aud come to Durham
much ottener than they do to Hills
boro. It Durham was the county
seat OF that section it would make !,
more convenient in the matter Of
paying taxes, attending courts, etc. !
then he said that the people want to
get into Durham on account of the
good road movement, as they want
ed better roads in that section
Another reason continued the
speaker, is that those living in the
district mentioned thought that the
county officers did not deal squared,
with them. "There is q court house
ring" he said, "and q person mus,
live within three miles Of Hillsbors
if he wants any Of the benefits Of the
bounty"
Should this petition be made, a.
this gentleman says will be done
there will be a hard fight against i,
AID the probability is that any move
OF that kind would meet nothing bu'
defeat. However, our people would
be glad to have the section named
as q part of Durham county.
