but any one OF them would make a
good governor Of the state OF Della

Preference seems to be given at this
writing to Dr. Chandler who has hosts
Of friends and admirers. His friends
pay him the highest compliment Of
saying that If elected, he would in fact
be the Governor and that grafters
would have to apply elsewhere. His
genial. heartily good nature would be
an element IN his popularity.
Mr.. winits has made a record in the
Levy Court Of New Castle county
which has won him many friends. That
record would be a guarantee OF an hon

OPINION
Performance of Duty Resented.

TNlIoIWdNSc OF INAl RcoeUkeus
From the Chicago Chronicle.
1t is a singular and by no means en-
couragng fact that the average public
functionary intrusted with the enforce
ment of the law becomes angry when
a public demand is made upon him for
the performance of his duties. He
manifests his resentment openly. Down
at Memphis, Tenn, there is a popular
outcry against gambling because two
Deputy Sheriffs We're murdered by
blacklegs whom they were seeking TO
arrest. 1t is not disputed that the State
and municipal laws against gambling
have been ignored by the city authori-
ties The people demand that those
laws shall be enforced.
Forced TO promise compliance. the
Mayor Of the city, angry at the peo-
pie who have coerced him into doing
his duty. declares that he shall not
only stop public gambling, but that he
shall forbid progressive euchre parties
at which prizes are given. That is.
because men have been murdered i'm
negro gambling heils a dozen women
may not get together and compete for
n blue plate or a sofa pillow. OF course
everyone understands the small malice
which prompts the Mayors action and
no one is deceived by his talk OF treat
ing everyone alike. The case is merely
AN example Of the resentment OF an un-
worthy officer forced to do that which
he should do as a matter of right and

rHE REGISTRATION EEE.

THE registration OF voters on SAT-
urday was as large as anticipated,
the total IN this city being about
2.4ee, or 500 more than were qualified
at the first days registration two years
ago. The Increase is doubtless due TO
two things: the Republican primaries
today. and Increased interest due to a
campaign year.
Most persons are agreed that as the
system OF registration works. the fee
should be abolished. The intention
was to require of voters the payment
Of this small fee as an evidence OF their
good faith. the assumption being that
anybody who cared to vote would will
ingly pay it, and that none but those
acting in good faith would attempt to
qualify.
To insure the payment Of this fee
by the voter himself severe penalties
were provided for anyone furnishing
money to another for the purpose Of
registration. Yet We presume that
nearly ene-half Of an those who quali-
fy have their fee paid for them. and this
Is coming to be great drain on the
campaign treasures OF the several par
ties.
Republicans do not care to prosecute
Democrats and Democrats do not wish
to inform on Republicans. Both parties
are guilty since it is deemed most i'm
portant that all their voters shall BE-
qualified Thus we have law that b,

OPTIMISM AND BUSINESS.

THE habit of being cheerful is a
mighty good one to cultivate-it
brings Joy and contentment.
To the business man it means more
business-the discontented grumbier at
dull times is inviting the public to do
their trading elsewhere.
In Judicious Advertising there's an
interesting article based ON this very
topic, from which these paragraphs are
extracted;
'lf your trade is at a standstiil it's be-
cause you haven't given it the impetus
to swing It along.
