Things BorrorNrd.

Along with the habit to prohounce
peoples names correctly. to reply
promptly to notes. and the like another
mark of the regard for the rights of
others which indicates inherent refine
ment is the practice of returning bor-
rowed articles. In cities and large
communities there is comparatively
little of the kitchen borrowing that
has come to be proverbial in stories.
but there are few households which
do not find a fairly good list of bor-
rowed articles accumulated in the
course of 1he year. Il book from this
friend, an umbrella from that, a writ
ten recipe fnom another, a bit of fancy
work as a model from another, and so
on. The use which the borrower has
for the loaned articles is temporary. It
is therefore purely a selfish laziness
which retains them after such use
from the owner, who may be in posi-
tive and CONTINUOUS need,of the thing.

GOULD AND PENNSYLVANIA

For some time there has been a gi-
gantic fight in progress between the
Pennsylvania railroad and the Gould
lines. It has developed that the latter
Interests were responsible for the de-
feat OF the proposed tunnel project at
New York city. Leading financial men
yesterday construed the opposition of
the aldermen as inspired 'Jy the enc
mics of she Pennsylvania road.
Now the Pennsylvania road is credit
ed with the attempt to purchase the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe line
(which would give it a through road
from New York city to San Francisco.
The New York project is too impor-
tant TO be throtted, and if we mistake
not, public sentiment will yet compel
the aldermen to grant what without
reasonable excuse they have withheld.
The proposed Pennsylvania improve
ment carried with it an expenditure Of
something like S5O,OOO,OOOO, which
would have meant much to labor, be-
sides the advantages Of the improve
ment. It was regarded as most inn
lportant traffic Improvement to New
York city, Brooklyn and Long Island,
and would have been hailed with pleas
Iuro by all passengers entering the me-
|tropolis from the West and South.
Then the Goulds entered Pittsburg
with the Wabash line, and by the pur-
chase of the Western Maryland. en-
tered Baltimore. AS an act of retalia-
ton the Pennsylvania Company threw
out the Western Union telegraph sys-
sem. and installed the rival company.
During this time the aldermen had
been holding up the Pennsylvania tun-
mel franchise and when the time was
ripe, it was rejected 1t appears to be
a struggle between two giants, and the
public will be satisfied so long as their
interests are not interfered with.

FAREWELL. WILLIAM

William Michael Byrne Travelled Il
Washington and succeeded in having
himself interviewed again yesterday
The Addicks people can take little com
fort. however, out of Mr.. Byrnes adj
vocacy OF the election of their master
since he admits as frankly and direct
" as is possible for Mr.. Byrne, that the
election of Addieks would be a depler-
able fact, although he deems it neces-
sary
Mr.. Byrne evidently seeks to become
a new Moses TO lead the Republican
hosts into victory-victory obtained by
any means and leading to any result
But why he continues to insult Colo
mel Dupont by urging him TO become
the colleague OF Addicks when he must
DE aware that Colonel DuPont's char
acter. his whole life and his positive
word are against any such degrading
deal, is hard to see. Politically, Mr..
Byrne was made factor by Colonel
DUPONT Whatever OF political prestige
he possesses he owes TO that gentleman,
and knowing his benefactor as he must,
his repeated urging of Colonel DUPONT
to turn down the principles which have
acttated him for a lifetime, amounts to
an insult Mr.. Byrne urges the Colo
mel to step to the front and make an ag-
gressive fight; but if he does so, it
will hardly be with the purpose in view
which is suggested by Mr.. Byrne
1t is now for the voluble District AT
torney TO take the second step. He
does not regard himself as in the Ad-
dicks camp, but there is no reasonable
middle ground. Either he wants Ad-
dicks elected, with or without con-
ditions, or he is opposed to that CEN
summation. If he wants Addicks
elected, it would simply mat
tiers and save time for him TO avow il

If the stain is allowed to remain until

How Conductors Are Treated

The street car conductors OF Will

II is a well-known fact that conduct
.ors on trolley cars are not Goulds. Nor
ans or editors. when it comes TO own
ms great blocks OF bullion. They
draw only living salary at best and c
sponge on them would be downright
mean to say the least. This is done
owcver. according to the story, al
most daily right here in Wilmington,
and not by people who are objects o
harity. but by the very best citizens,
ven women who are the leaders in
shlonablo society circles. In fact
his latter class are most responsible
ossibly thoughtlessly so, for the griev-
nee OF the ticket takers.
II is said that prominent citizens
especially women. win get on a car and
when the conductor comes around will
greet him with a bewitching smile and
casually remark that they would be
glad if he would remember them fol
the price OF the fare until the next
timo l ride"
The car company, of course, does
no credit business. but two out o
