wHAr MR. Ia WouLD Do.

THE Every Evening assumes much
4 when It intimates that Preston Lea
is in favor Of retaining the voters as
sistant law on the statute books OF
Delaware. We believe, however that
had Mr.. Lea been Governor two years
ago he would have signed the repeal bill
without a moments hesitation.
Mr.. Lea is not insensible to the best
public opinion, and while he does not
care to proclaim a lot of principles from
the housetops just to catch the unwary
voter yet the friends Of the repeal bill
who are the friends Of Mr.. Lea, have
no doubts.
The Evening journal waged the
chief campaign for the repeal of the
Voters Assistant Act two years ago.
We had our nght won until It came
TO am obstinate executive. Then we
determined that we would fight for the
repeal through successive Legislatures
and with successive governors till sue
cess crowns our efforts.
We give notice right now that we
shall not cease to agltate the question
OF a more honest ballot with the wiping
out Of the Voters Assistant Act as a
part Of the reform. Aud we believe
that when a Legislature sends to Mr.
Lea such a bill as was sent TO Cover
nor HUM ii will come back a law.

A HUNG JURY.

KT Ews comes from Dover that the
IN jury in the Powell case is hung,
and there is possibility that the man
who according to general opinion has
outraged the sense OF decency Of his
community viii go free. OF course we
have TO assume that juries are gov
erned by the evidence under their
oaths. but here seems to be man on
whose soul there lis vast amount of
guilt and the arm Of the law is power
less.
A number Of years ago this man mar
ried widow who had snug little
nest-egg. Instead OF employing his
hands in farm labor, and thus exer-
cising the only talents that he had been
endowed with, he chose the part of
llbertine. His mistress he kept In his
home to naunt ia the face Of his own
wife. Then one day the Albin girl was
found murdered, and there was n sem
satlon.
The wife was convicted Of the crime
and Is now in jail. But Powell played
alternately the role Of martyr and hero.
He whlned and then he boosted. The
awful guilt which stained his soul he
did not appreciate AZ the trial a very
serious charge was made against him
by little girl who was a witness This
case has just been heard and the jury
As hung. That little friendless girl had
not already received injury enough;
she was destined TO be held up to the
world as a lar and a strumpet that
Alfred M Powell might have no taint
left on his fair name
OF course the people Of Kent county
viii say the jury did IT'S duty; that the
trial was regular and orderly and
that counsel for the defense simply per-
formed the duty that devolved on him,
but is this the justice that we must
expect under our system Of jurlspru-
denee?

Remarkable Pick-me-ups for Four

Remarkable Pick-me-ups for Four
 footed Creatures.
 It would almost seem necessary to leg islate for bibulous animals. as well as for human beings. judging by the pro- nounced liking many creatures show for intoxicating lquor, says London An- swers.
 The elephant evinces a decided fond ness for strong drink of various kinds, and many of these animals can be in- duced by the promise of porter, beer wine or spirits to perform tricks which they would otherwise refuse to attempt.
 A famous circus proprietor owned a most curious elephant a few years ago, which seemed utterly incapable of per- forming It's tricks without the aid of a liberal dose of brandy.
 One evening, when the circus was show Ing at Portsmouth, an excessive amount of this liquid must have been adminis- tered, for the elephant, after staggering into the ring. proved quite unable to stand up and after repeated futile at temRts to preserve an upright position, gave up the struggle in disgust and quietly lay down.
 The camel also is, If he can get strong drink, far from a total abstainer and, although able to go for several days without liquid refreshment of any sort. has been known to accept a liberal dose of whiskey in preference to water.

Wasps.

Many people. carpers and sometimes even so-called experts have contended that there is no such thing as fireproof construction. Once for all were they si- fenced by the Baltimore fire. The great skyscrapers there were built to meet or- dinary conditions; the steel was as light as would carry the load and the freproof- ing tile was reduced to the minimum of thickness and therefore. minimum cost, the ordinary building tile of commerce people would not pay for any greater protection. Yet those buildings stood up:of course everything within them that was infiammable burnt up, but tho structures themselves need but little re- pair. Here and there the tile Is broken but on the whole the repairs to the struc- tural work and tile covering are compar- atively insignificant. The test was a most extraordinary one, 1t passes compre- hension. Some portions of those build ings were subjected to 5000 and more de- grees, the heat of blast furnace! Who dares say now that fireproofing Is not freproof? 4t.-.

New York, March 5-The cotton market opened steady at decline of points to ah advance of 1 point, the losses being due to liquidation and some room selling encouraged by lower cables and disap- pointing decrease in the American visible supply. There was. however. little ag- Fressive pressure and after little further decline on the active months the market was rallied by a renewal of bull support. advancing to a level about to points over yesterdays close after which 1t ruled rather irregular and with trading quiet. The small estimates for the days re- ceipts and the light movement expected at Houston for Monday were factors in the recovery. Estimated receipts at the ports today were 5000. against 6e04 last week and 1,3ao iase year. For the week. $500 against 74.3S9 last week and 1fi.6i3 last year.

New orleaps Cotton Futures. NEW ORLEANS, March 5.-Cotton future.

NEW ORLEANS, March 5.--The cotton mar kel was rather a small affair to-day, but 1t showed a strong undertone that caused prices to close l2 and i3 points higher in May and hammering by bears and liquidation by longs had been induiged in It was a typical Sat1 urday markea and there were few traders who cared to put cut lines in either direction over Sunday. A coterie of bears. however dis played some aggressiyeness and 1t was their evident desire to send prices down for wide decline 90 that Liverpool might be influenced Monday morning. The longs divined the in- tent of this clique and offered just enough support to absorb all offerings and to send prices up fer moderate advance.
 The market opened steady and from points lower to 2 higher than the close Of yes- taFday. Liverpool was called dIsappolnting 60 far as futures were concerned, and this had movement at the ports was 90 extremely light and statistics in general so bullish when close Iy read that the weaker shorts grew nervous at the idea of remaining uncovered over Sunday especially as estimated receipts for Monday were wonderfully small. This caused ders to cause a slight furry at the close which was the most excited part of the short Saturday session.
 The most noticeable feature of the day so rowness of fluctuations. While all the week fluctuations were so rapid and wide to make a sealper's paradise they were too mar TOW to-day to give the scalpers much of any profit They were frequent enough but they showed a stubbornness to being depressed to any extent. The close was within two and three points of the highest levels of the day The spot market was quiet and prices were uncnanged. Buyers were out with a good demand but they expected lower prices to- day. which factors refused to grant. Sales amounted 10 1900 bales.
