GARnAGE YIELps ApRoFrr

Since the Mayor is yet hesitating
whether or not to approve the con-
tracts for the removal of garbage from
the city. it is pertinent to call attention
to the fact that 1t is possible to dis
pose of all the refuse of a city without
a penny Of cost, and possibly at a profit.
AS an evidence of this, the offer which
was recently made by a responsible
New York concern to Allentown, Pa,
may be instanced. The company Of
fered to take the new crematory plant
costing $4,000, and to dispose Of all the
garbage and ashes absolutely without
cost to the city
A representative of the company ex-
planned how it could be done. He said
that everything cam be utilized, in
Guiding animal matter, wet waste from
the garbage can, ashes, rags, paper, and
other materials. He declared that in
every ton Of wet garbage there is an
average OF one hundred pounds of oils
and four hundred pounds OF tankage
Cused as rhosphate). The oil sells for
six cents a pound. and the tankage for
one cent Thus every ton of wet gar
bage when reduced is worth $1,000. Coal
ashes when properly handled yield pro-
ducts valued at from one to two dol
lars per ton. The machines separate
it into a cheap grade OF coal. clinkers
and two grades Of ashes, all Of which
have market value.
Now this is not a mere fancy, but
the statement OF a responsible concern
which makes definite offer and has
figured out profit Thus It is possible
for Wilmington to have all the ashes
and garbage removed for nothing, in
stead of spending a large sum annually
for a rather unsatisfactory service. Isn't
it worth looking into?

From the New York Sun.
When the Hon. Marcus Alonzo Han
ma, chairman of the Republican Nation
al Committee, appealed to the Della
ware Republicans not to join with the
Democrats in electing two senators, he
argued that party is entitled to the
fruits of its victory Senator Hanna
used the word victory" loosely The
fact is that there has been as yet no
proof that There has been a Republican
victory in Delaware since the election
OF the Legislature that chose Anthony
Higgins senator.
If Senator Hanna bases his alleged
Republican victory on the election of a

while calling themselves Republicans
