Which had broken from It's moorings' and

DovER's club, although tied
with Milford for championship
honors, would probably be in first
place if the averages with all other
clubs were counted.-"Morning
News" "
The correspondent for the Viii
mington Morning News in the
above article claims indirectly the
championship honors for the Dover
Base Ball Club from all other clubs
south of Wilmington. Now is that
so? Not on your life. Milford
has played 80 games, winning Fl
and losing 9, making an average
per cent of 700. Dover has played
se, winning 23, losing IS and one
tie game with Salisbury, making
an average per cent COS. With
these facts taken into consideia-
ton, if either club has the right to
claim the championship of the clubs
south of Wilmington, it is Milford
and not Dover.

THE third and final race for the
America Cup was won Thursday,
Sept. ard, by the Reliance. This
was third successive victory for the
American yacht and the final race
for this years contest. Sir Thomas
Upton, though unable to lift the
cup, has gained many admirers by
his genial manner of taking defeat.
The races have proven one thing
of which Americans are proud, and
that is our superior skill in the
construction of yachts.

IN the division of the spoils of
Office in Delaware, Senator Ball
naturally wants Senator Alice to
divide equal. Every Evening.
We suppose that the editor of
the Every Evening means by the
words divide even" one-half Of the
patronage belongs to Senator Ball.
Well, our version of equal division
differs considerably. Senator Ball
represents about one-third of the
Republicans of Delaware and Sen
ator Alice the other two thirds.
Now since such is true, would it be
equal division to give Senator Ball
one-half of the patronage? Com
mon sense teaches that equations
can not be made so as to give
SenatorBallthe one-half patronage
To give Senator Ball oue-half the
patronage would be as ridiculous
as to give one member who owned
one-third stock of a firm of two
one-half of the profits. Equal di
vision is always based on per cen
representation.

SOMETIME in the spring the
Town Council of Milford petitioned
the two Levy Courts. Kent and
Sussex. to rebuild Milford bridges.
A committee of six members OF
each was appointed to meet the
Milford Council. AT that meeting
the two committees agreed to en-
nlov VIM. B. Carswell, of Whining
ton. to draw plans and specihca,
tions for the erection of said
bridges. 1t was further agreed
that each court should advertise for
bids. and the lowest bidder should
have the contract.
On the day set to open the bids,
Aug. 18, the Court of this county
was informed that Sussex Co.Court
would not meet on that day. Kent
Co. Court deeming it an injustice
to all bidders to have their bids
opened, and then at a latter date
Sussex to open bids, postponed
action for one week The Kent
County Court was then advised by
the Clerk of the Peace of Sussex
County, that the Sussex County
Court did not expect to receive bids,
as they had not advertised for bids,
having depended entirely uPonKent
County to receive bids and then
submit them to the Sussex County
Court. On August rs, bids were
opened by the Kent County Court.
Nelson & Buchanan bid $4,000,
and las. A. Hirons $500. The
contract was awarded to Mr.. Hirons
We fail to see any good reason why
the Sussex County Court should
not acquiesce in the action OF the
Kent County Court.-Sentlnel.

The Passing Veterans.

It IS very apparent from the fig
ures published b. the authority OF
the Commissioner of Pensions that
high water mark has been reached
under existing laws in pension ex-
penditures. Nearly Al, 900 persons
were dropped from the pension
rolls last year, chiefly because OF
death, and the additions both from
the ranks of the civil war veterans
and the soldiers of the Spanish war
failed to offset this number by a
round 10000. The expenditures
repeat the same story, showing a
decline of about S., 900, 900 from
the outlay for the previous year.
These figures, showing the un-
mistakable and rapid thinning Of
the great army of civil war veter-
ans, cannot be considered with
other than a feeling of sadness. The
years have done and are doing their
work. The most liberal recogni-
ton on the part of a grateful coun-
! try of the invaluable services oi
these courageous citizens cannot
stay the hand of death. The nearly
| forty years that have elapsed since
these men exchanged the perils and
privations of war for the occuPa-
tions of peace have brought most
of them to the verge of the allotted
| limit of human life. From this
time forward their ranks will be
thinned more rapidly than they
