JAPAN's NOTE.

TAPAN'S NOTE regarding the viola
tions Of Chinese neutrality by the
y Russians SIS unanswerable. II de-
clares that Japan viii no longer toler-
ate Russian evasions and procrastina-
tion. Her promises to dismantle the
AslSold and other boats in the neutral
harbor Of Shanghai she has not kept.
on the contrary she has attempted to
repair them just as though they were
safe in one Of her own ports.
It would be a novel precedent to all
low a belligerent to use the harbors of
a weaker and neutral power for pur-
poses OF refuge and equipment China
cannot enforce her rights. or Is too
impotent. But Shanghai is a port i'm
whose neutrality all the nations are
interested. II then neutrality is vio-
lated and these nations do not inter-
fere, they cannot object If Japanese
warshlps enter the harbor and enforce
neutrality.
We can imagine the course Of Eng
land. France and Germany had the
conditions been reversed. placing Jap
anese ships in the position the Russian
boats now occupy. And il neutrality is
to amount to anything and be respect
ed IL must be impartial.

Vacation Time is drawing to a close
and for the last day or two there
has been a packing of trunks at the
seashore and mountain resorts by the
vast army Of toilers who during "A

been enjoying the fresh air and re-
creation that nature meant that they
should have in order to keep the
mind and body In good shape. Those
who have seen the returning hosts

take up their business, and work

places in the ranks of the great army

empoye. The former will be able

ABOUT FUSION.

A LONG side of the principle of
~ majority rule (Which must be
the rule of a majority honestly
obtained) stands the principle Of local
self government. AS each county has
it's own government, so the respective
parties Of these counties each has its
own government ana constitutes a po-
ltical entity.
There are two parties iu this coun-
ty. each under the appenatlon Of Re-
publican, and each is entitled to pur-
sue its own destiny without outside
interference. But II majority Of
these two organizations decide on fu-
sion. they alone are to be considered
or consulted, Kent county would
hardly consent TO be governed from
sussex, and New Castle VIII not COM
sent TO be governed from Kent

sidered and decided by the two parties
in this county and any interference
from the outside must be regarded as
intermeddling
In vlaw Of these facts the resolutions
OF the Republican county committee ar,
to be regarded as wise and sound
The Republicans Of this county ar'
willing TO enter into a fusion move
ment for the purpose OF electing on
county officers. The committee has M
power to go further. It cannot decid
the conduct OF the Republicans of Ken

responsibility by turning to the Stat

FIRE COMPANY LEAVES

Test of Efficiency of Depart

niittee of Council

An example Of the efficiency of the
Wilmington Fire Department was
demonstrated last night by the Union
Fire Company, when the fire committed
of City Council I'm making it's inspection
of the companies on the west side Of
the city visited the engine house Of that
organization. 1t was suggested that as
the company was the youngest in the
service it should show in what time 1t
could have its quarters equipped for
service. The test was made and from
the time the gong was sounded until
the apparatus left the building about
twenty seconds were consumed.
The companies visited last night We're
the Fame Hose, Weccacoe Union,
Water Witch and the Friendship. At
each engine house the Councilmen were
accorded a warm reception and every
thing was found to be in first-class con-
dition.
At the Water Witch Company a dis
cussion took place between the mem-
bers of the fire committee respecting
the advantages of a public review OF
the department. Chairman Cannon OF
the committee was of the opinion that
each company needed its appropriation
for more useful things than TO parade
with. He also thought a public review
would cause rivalry to such an extent
among the companies that it would
create bad blood. Councilmen Taylor
and O'Neill had different views on the
question and they both favored holding
a public review.
Tonight the committee will visit the
Washington, Reliance, Liberty Della
ware, Phoenix and Brandywine Com
panies.

DO NOT DOSE THE STOMACH.
Cure catarrh by Natures Own Meth
delivery Breath of Hyomei Brings
Relief.

Nearly every one who has catarrh
knows how foolish 1t is TO try and cure
il by drugging the stomach. Tempo
rary relief may be given, but a cure
seldom comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure
catarrh would be to have a change OF
climate; but now with Hyomei you
can carry a health giving climate in
your vest pocket and by breathing it
few minutes four times a day soon
cure yourself.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but S1.OO and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket
a medicine dropper and "a bottle Of
Hyomei. The inhaler lasts a lifetime
and il one bottle does not cure. an
extra bottle OF Hyomei can be obtained
for so cents. Il is the most economical
of all remedies advertised for the cure
OF catarrh. and is the only one that
follows nature i'm her method of treat
ing diseases Of the respiratory organs.
4. James Belt has sold a great many
Hyomei outfits and the more he sells.
the more convinced he is that he is
perfectly safe in guaranteeing TO refund
the money if Hyonnei does not cure.

Now this is my opinion, viewed from
an unbiased standpoint. No set or class

we might add who work for less money.
Now would it not be a good thing to
continue the half holiday on Thursday
afternoons through the month of Sep
tember at least? ! believe IL could be
done all the year around, and no one
be inconvenienced As we all know,
Thursday In our city following so close
upon the heels Of the farmers market
Is almost "a blank day. This is the ex-
preston Of almost every grocer. Then
why not extend the half holiday
through the month Of September. If not
longer? l have given this close atten-
tion, ana ] don't believe at this time
any movement has received more COM
mendation than the half holiday move
ment. Nearly all classes of men have
a half holiday i'm the week. Then why
not the grocers as well? Mr.. Grocer,
this is for your consideration. Reflect

fully and when operated at a proper

legitimate uses. Time has shown
that when run at a high rate Of speed

Of torture and slaughter. II the
