THE personal organ of Robert c
Houston, at Georgetown, who i.
the recognized leader of the Regu
lars in Sussex county assumes tha'
there will be but one ticket for al
Republicans to vote at the coming
fall elections, and in this he is
probably correct, as the conditions
as they now exist would make il
impossible for the Regulars to de-
feat any portion Of the Union Re-
publican ticket. In his editorial
last week Mr.. Houston argues that
the only wise and virtuous men in
the Republican party of Delaware,
are limited to the small coterie of
gentlemen who have posed as lead
ers of his faction; but of course
that idea is Mr.. Houston S private
property with which the public will
not worry over, but in his assump-
ton that the gubernatorial nomi-
nee must come from that faction
that the millennium of wise political
administration may follow, is an ar
gument with which the great ma
jority of Republicans in Delaware
will not agree. The State and
county governments of the three
counties of Delaware are more
wisely and more economically ad-
ministered under Republican rule,
than they were under the thirty
years of Democratic administration.
and we have only to point to the
high credit and business-like svs-
TENS that have superseded the old, |
as proof ofthis assertion. The Re
publicans' of Delaware will have
but one ticket, but this will be
brought about by all Republicans
going into common primaries to Sc
lect candidates, and then abiding
by the results. If the choice of
the people should be a man from
the ranks of the Regulars, then he
will have the loyal support of the
Union Republicans, and it is to be
hoped that the same can be said
truthfully of the Regulars should
the situatioR be reversed.

just passed through one of the
most bitter primary elections that
has shaken the very foundations
of that party, and the victors have
gone ahead with the same earnest

NEVER in the history of fruit
growing in Delaware have the
growers had such an absolute total
loss in strawberry crop, as has
fallen to their lot this year. The
yield has been satisfactory in most
cases, but the prices have been but
little above the cost of picking and
the crate; which leaves the grower
out the cost Of phosphate, labor of
cultivation and the hauling, or
about thirty cents for every crate
of berries grown. The weather
has been bad ever since the season
opened, but that will not account
for the low prices. The main trou-
bic appears to be over-production,
and many will plow up their acre
age until the business gets back to
a normal condition. For two years
past the growing of strawberries
has been without profit to the fruit
growers.

Hilarity in Kansas.

From the Washington Post.
 Kansas Is finally producing some hilari- ty in the campaign, the assured republi- can majority to the contrary notwith- standing In the western part of the state republicans are braggng about a recent barbecue at Wichita, where carload of meat and other eatables in proportion were consumed The barbecue began early in the day and lasted till late in the night. Secretary Wilson of the agricultural de- partment was the bright and particular speaking star with Senator Long and Representative Victor Murdock lesser luminaries. The secretary, as usual in his political speeches, enlaged upon the grow ing importance of the department to farmers-in this instance to the farmers of Kansas-and led his audience to believe that Long and Murdock were legislative giants in pushing the great appropria- tions for his department through con- gress.
 Murdock, who has been spellbinding the length and breadth of his immense dis triet. has had unique experiences. One of them was in little town down on the maps as Mulvane. There a patent medi- cine man, who was distributing free sam- ples, proved a powerful attraction, depict ing the congressman audience. Murdock had hard time of it speaking against such odds, but he stuck to 1t and ulti- mately won out

A comnromise Divorce Canon.

The Episcopal house of deputies by a heavy vote has adopted a divorce canon which, if adopted by the house of bishops, will quiet a warm problem for three years at least Under the proposed canon, a compromise be- tween the high church and the low or broad church, provides, like the old canon, for the remarriage of the in nocent person in a divorce for the cause of infidelity, but such remar- riage cannot take place within one year from the granting of decree of divorce by court. The innocence of the applicant for remarriage must be shown by the records of the divorce court, and the consent of the bishop must then be obtained Even then clergyman may refuse to perform the ceremony without subjecting him. self to censure or discipline.
 In the house of deputies the vote on this proposition stood 9S dioceses for,

A BuiItlinq Year,

The activity in trade, the rising prices of iron and the renewal of spec ulation will each and all be felt in Jones valley, and next year promises even now to be remarkable building year. II is fully demonstrated that a severe depression can no longer un- dermine real estate values or rentals in Greater Birmingham. Property Is held as high both in purchases and leases as it was in the year 1900 or l 1901, when the recent boom was at it's height The prosperity of this valley is based on inexhaustible supplies of ores and fuel, and nothing can shake the permanence and steadfastness of it's values. It Is roclS-bottomed city.
 This fact will lead to numerous in- yestments in buildings next year. This district has been putting up about 2000 houses, big and little, year ever 1 since 1898, and that rate may be ex- ceeded next year, for no one is now afraid to put money in Birmingham real estate.
 Each year better buildings are con structed in this valley, but there is still room for improvement, especial. ly in the suburbs. We have about reached the point when it is wasteful to put on lot in this valley "cot- tage" house, that is to say, a one story structure. Such a building is not full improvement of ground which is yearly rising in value, and | foundations and roof in such a case are not fully utilized If the one story building is not wholly out of place in Jones valley, the cheap, nasty, loose-jointed cottage certainly is, and in the numerous buildings of the com ing year it should be eliminated. All buildings cannot be palaces, but all buildings should be substantial, whole some and truly economical This would cut out all shacks and nearly all 1 cottages.

President of the Press Club.

A committee from the Birmingham Press club notified Emil Lesser, editor of the Birmingham Courier, of his cleo tion as president of the Birmingham Press club last night. MT. Lesser is the first editor of a weekly paper to be so honored, and he well deserves the compliment. He is editor of Ger man paper, which Is printed in the German language. but at the same time he is greatly beloved by those who have to write English. The Press club has honored itself in selecting MT. Lesser as the mead of the organi- zation, and he will undoubtedly reflect credit apon the newspaper toilers of birmingham by his wise and business like administration.

Bryan settled all doubt, and l never saw democratic leaders more confident in any section than they were In Indiana yesterday.

12 against and 1 divided. So strong vote indicates that the house of bishops will probably concur in the action of the house of deputies, thus disposing of one of the most vexed and difficult questions that has come before the Episcopal church in many years.
 The proposed canon will greatly limit the remarriages of divorced per. sons by clergymen of the Episcopal church, and some think it will drive all such applicants to other churches. The subject has been carefully con. sidered by the general convention sit- ting in Boston, and the compromise promises to be acceptable to the entire body of Episcopalians, and the old canon will doubtless give place to the compromise measure which already bears the endorsement of the house of deputies.
