TENDER ANp REFUSAL.

TIME Republican County Committee
doubtless inspired by a feeling
that certain degree OF har-
mony might be had to the end that the
Republican cause might be successful
without the sacrifice Of any principle,
adopted resolution recommending
common primaries for this county.
This committee went no farther be-
cause from its nature and constitution
II was powerless 70 so farther. II
represents, or Is supposed to represent
the Regular Republicans Of this ooun-
" IN an matters pertaining to the
politics OF county affairs.
1t has nothing to do with a state
ticket, since New Castle has It's repre-
sentatlves IN the State Committee. and
these gentlemen are charged specifically
with the governance of the party in
the state as whole. Then Kent
county has its committee TO take care
Of its county affairs and Sussex Of
course has the same.
II viii be seen by that review OF the
committees and their functions that
the duties OF the New Castle County
Committee are limited strictly TO de-
Gliding the conduct OF the affairs Of
tho party IN this county aside from
state politics, and It has no powers be-
yond.
It's proposition for common primaries
has been considered By the Union Re-
publican committee, and rejected. The
refusal IS on the novel grounds that
common primaries IN this county cam
not be accorded until there is an
agreement on common primaries in
the other counties We don't know
what the next move Of the Republican
County Committee win be, but one
thing is certain. New Castle cannot
decide the action OF Kent and Sussex.
In county affairs each committee must
decide Tor itself what IL will do, for
beyond the county lines Il has no more
power than the Legislature Of Della
ware has to make laws in New Jer-
sey.
II we We're venturing an opinion we
should say that the County Committed
Of the Regular Republicans has gone
quite FAR enough. Il viii hardly as
sumo the position Of postulant II
is pertinent to remark that the desire
10 win and the lust of ofice is as
strong in the hearts OF Addicks men az
it Is In Regulars.

In one Of his letters Carlyle says Of
Macaulay, the historian: I'VE have had
Macaulay for two days. He was a
real acquisition while he lasted and
gave rise to much good talk. besides an
immense quantity of Indifferent, which
he himself executed--a man OF truly
wonderful historical memory, which he
has tried in really extensive reading
and has always lying ready, with this
or the other fact. date or anecdote on
demand; in other respects constantly
definable as the sublime Of common
place, not one Of whose ideas has the
least tincture OF greatness or original
ity or any kind Of superior merit ex-
cept neatness OF expression"

Last of the HermIt PeopIe.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A British diplomatic mission can be-
come a military column as quickly as
Ia Russian merchantmen can be trans
formed into a man-of-war. Colonel
Younghusband's expedition, which left
India with the most pacific Intentions,
or al least expressions has left death
In It's wake on its journey into Tibet
At last accounts il was halted seven-
ty miles from Lhasse, having notified a
native embassy that IL would talk OF
peace only IN the capital. The natives
intimated that when the British arriv-
ed they might md the bird flown and
the capital empty.
10 would be singular if the expedition
which began as tragedy should end
as a farce. The grand Llama can ny
far from his capital and take refuge
In the inaccessible hills. or he can find
equally safe refuge IN the dress Of an
ordinary Bhuddlst monk and snap his
fingers at the invaders.

Another kind Of wife rebukes her soft
er sister with pishes and tushes and
tells her that It isn't the grindstone
that Is making his nose red II is cock
tails-the brute! Occasionally a hus-
band, finding himself pitied, quavers
out a protest against being left alone In
this bleak town with the thermometer
az an kinds Of figures. and wonders
that a woman he has sworn TO love,
honor and obey should have the heart
to order him to stay here while she
went 70 a summer hotel, and, for aught
he knew. nirted.
Frankly, we do not think the situa-
tion Is one that calls for the much
shedding OF either tears or ink. When
the husband and wife are young and
need one another most, they are usual-
ly poor This Is merciful Providence.
since Il prevents their separation. The
husband cannot pay the rent II he
sends his wife 20 the country so she
has TO accept as a substitute a seat on
the doorstep In the evening and ice
cream soda at the drug store. When
both are older the pangs Of separation
are more endurable, and by that time
also there ought to be enough in the
bank to spare for trip or a stay at
some quiet resort among the hills. As
the average income does not permit a
summer at liberty for two. and as busi-
ness rules do not allow 1t even II the
income did-for the income would stop
II the rules We're broken-the wife takes
vicarious as well as a personal va
cation and the husband tolls. That is,
he often says he does. though every
one knows that business is so much
lighter Ia town In summer because of
the absence Of women, that he does
not toll enough TO get himself sun
struck.

RlsHoP PoTTER SCORED.

N BISHOP POTTER probably knew
that his dedication OF model
saloon in New York would cause
a storm Of protest, for none knows bet
ter the strength Of the temperance sem
tlment among the religious people Of
the country. Undoubtedly he felt that
he was helping TO inaugurate a great
reform. as he said, but was he?
This new saloon Is expected to pay
1--WE per cent on the Investment and
all surplus is TO be devoted to found
ing similar saloons, and the extension
is to be Indefinite Therefore, if the
project succeeds. its mission win be the
propagation Of saloons, and so II does
not aim to curtail liquor drinking.
Then, too. the object is to make at
tractive saloons. there are to be none
but pure liquors and pleasant sur
roundings and this will undoubtedly
attract not only the old topers who
want TO get the worth OF their money.
but 1t win create host Of new tip
piers. It is an old idea and every
saloon-keeper has employed II TO some
degree. There are palaces with plate
glass windows and mahogany furnish-
ings which are designed TO attract all
classes by their luxury The model"
saloon has no new idea, save that it,
surplus earnings are to be devoted TO
the creation OF monopoly
It is perfectly natural to censure the
Bishop proper too, He has OUT
raged great sentiment that obtains
among church people Il is possible
that there Is an element Of truth in
his contention, but will not his POSI-
tlon be distorted into the sanction OF
the church for unlimited drinking. and
will that not result ia incalcuable
harm?
Bishop Potter Is Ia a miuority-per-
haps that is what he enioys-but the
sentiment OF nearly all church people,
both Catholic and Protestant, is that
drinking should be discouraged. while
a vast number insist on going to the
extreme Of prohibition. Has he a
right to defy this sentiment7

A romantic custom Of the Japanese
is described in the "Kokoro" Of Lafcadio
Hearn. 1t is narrated that those who
are anxious for the safety OF absent
ones repair to the mountain Of Dake-
yama to perform n singular rite There
is a shrine at the summit to commemo-
rate princess Of antiquity who daily
watched hopelessly until she pined and
died, when her body was changed into
stone. One who looks with the eyes
Of believer still sees the princess on
Mount Dakeyama in the shape OF a
perpendicular rock. Before her shrine
are heaps of pebbles, and those who
ascend 10 pray for the safe home COM
ing Of one they love take a pebble

another pilgrimage is made to the
