THE Democrats of Delaware
have been notified that it is up tc
them now and that they must carry
Delaware for the Democratic ticket.
Some money has been given them
for campaign purposes, and a suite
of rooms have been rented in the
Kenney building at Dover for
headquarters, and ex-Representa-
tive Sypherd placed in charge.
With all this, there are Democrats
in Kent and Sussex who can not
see any difference between the per
sOnal platform of Mr.. Parker and
the Republican platform, and who
will support Mr. Roosevelt instead
of the uncertain nominee of their
own party.

A call has been issued by the
Union Republicans of Delaware
for the State Convention to nomi-
nate ticket to meet at Dover on
August 23rd, 1904, and adopt a
platform. The primaries will be
held on Monday, August 22nd, at
the various voting places through
out the State. All Republicans
are invited to participate.

LOWER duties means more for

ANOTHER object lesson as to the
badly needed change in the system
OF keeping criminals in Sussex and
Kent counties was given last Fri
day,when eleven prisoners knocked
the aged turnkey down and made
their escape from the so-called iail
at Georgetown. The building is
totally unfit for the purpose for
which it is used, and is a disgrace
to any community. There should
be a State workhouse for the keen.
ing of all sentenced prisoners, and
by establishing a resident Judge for
the counties with power to hold
court monthly and make commit |
ments. Exactly as the city of
Wilmington has in Judge Coch-
rams court. This would not be
any more expensive than the pres
ent system of maintaining a score
or more of prisoners in idieness for
hVe months at time waiting for
the general sessions of court: in
fact it would affect saving in the
cost of court charges, while the +
saving in board would counterbal- {
ance the additional cost of a Judge t

THERE are many good things in

THERE can be no doubt as to the
transmission of homicidal tendeu-
cies, after experienced observation
of the record of these cases which
have come under recent notice. In
the suicide of Cora Killen, at Ches-
ter, Pa, last week, the facts of this
are proven. Her father, Jacob Kill
len,of FELTON,, Del, is serving out a
term of Imprisonment for an at
tempt made by him to murder his
wife and baby with an axe; and
now the Oldest daughter takes her
own life BY shooting herself in the
breast with a revolver, and assigns
as a reason, that she was afraid of
the vengeance of her father for
against him at the trial
which resultedin his imprisonment
or the crime of assault and bat
cry with intent to kill. Miss Kill

Manufactured goods have never yet reached price concomitant with the cost or raw material. but 1t seems to me be- lore very long q general advance of ma terial proportions will have to be made. and 1t will have to be borne by the con sumner.
 Despite the criticism of Bl. Sn and his coterie, based upon the supposition that the millions ke is squeezing out of the market will have to be paid in the end by the consumer. I think they have been of great benefit to the South. Through the farmer who has received an unprece- dented price for his crop, men in all trades have rcaped increased rewards for the work of their hands and brai7s. and as far as q close observation can gauge the situation. this section of the country has never been in so good a condition as 1t Is right now

Brown and Sully spurred them into an activity resulting in the purchase of enormous quantities of cotton at what was at the time con sidered the top price. 121a cents But the end of last season they sent back large quantities to the American market sell ing it at q slight advance, expecting to buy it again at a reduction. The Ameri- cans permitted them to do if. thinking 13 cents was the limit.

Fabrics are steadily advancing in sym pathy with the bounds cotton is making. This advance has only recently begun and as yet it is nowhere in proportion to the price of the raw material. but in short time 1t will reach the point at par with the pace set by 17-cent cotton This ad- vance will of course. fall to the expense account of consumers, for the sp.nncrs must get at least cost out of their pro- ducts or shut down. Yet MT Cremn can see no hardship in this, for he says that the present price of cotton has placed more money in circulation throughout the country in the South particularly than ever before. putting this section in the zenith of an unprecedented era of pros perity. with q greater volume of business than it has ever known.

Crcmin at the St Charles Hotel yester- day afternoon. Southern jobbcrs have in creased their takings more than 100 per cent since cotton passed the l2-cent mark but iobbers in all lines, in all parts of the country. have been taking greatly in- creased quantities of goods, and have cvinced disposition to take more if the manufacturers were willing to sell on any thing like the former basis of prices. Thesc however they can not get.
 Lower prices are not at all probable. The man who bears the market now, or for several months hence, is, in the par
 lance of the streets, 'a chump, pure and simple. Price lists of manufactured goods will show on abatcments until the new crop I- utiiuicntly developed to give jus tiiclt con for it, and merchants are plac- ing fall orders freely on basis founded upon the cotton price ruling at present.
