PORTSMOUTH FIREMEN
PRAISE WILMINGTON
Say They Had Time of Their
Lives on Visit to This

That the fremen from Portsmouth
appreciated the hospitality extended to
them by the fire fighters Of this city
during their visit here is best shown
by the following, which was clipped
by one of the visitors from a Ports
mouth paper and sent to 4. 1. McCar-
thy, of this city:
Tired and happy, fahgued, but not
too much so to dilate on the extra
special qualities Of the principal city
of Delaware. the Independent Fire
Company arrived yesterday from VIII
mington, marched to their South street
quarters, broke ranks and then COM
menced TO tell people about the good
time they had enjoyed. They button-
hOled every available acquaintance and
poured felicitous expressions in his
ears.
"Us for Wilmington" said one. "They

million of them during our trip. Joking
aside, il was the chance of a lifetime.

more capable TO entertain since I've
been able to think about my future

States We tried TO kill them when
they visited us; we took them to every
reachable point OF interest. we stocked
their interiors with oysters and other
things and sent them back with the
thought well, IL you ever come back
at US, you're peaches" We thrilled

killed them; but, oh Lord!" and the
speaker heaved a sigh expressive Of
over-satiated enjoyment
when we got to Wilmington" he
continued. with a smile redolent Of re-
miniscences blissful, "they were right
there with the goods. The streets were
lined, packed, jammed, and I suppose
that at least $4,000 people were there.

N triet OF this city should do their
utmost TO send David II. Megill to the
Legislature. He is the sort ofman that
is needed. This morning a sterling
Democrat who has known him for
years, informed us that he shall sup

ers in this community, has never held
ofice, but has performed every public
and party duty.
Nobody doubts his integrity, and he is
known as a man OF sound judgment and
good business sense. Such a man would
know what Wilmington needs. and he
would not be subject to graft or any
undue influence. We say with all en-
phasis that the people Of the Second

EDITORIAL OPINION

From the New York Evening Post.
II Is a humiliatlng bit Of news for
New Workers that the first man to give
up his seat to "A woman passenger I'm
the subway was a Philadelphian. Yet
II might be argued very plausibly that
the opening Of this same subway Is the
only thing which makes even the
slightest promise of Improving Man
haitian manners. u is the favorite
theory IN other and more ceremonious
cities that the New York man keeps his
seat and let's the New York woman
cling 10 strap because he is inher-
entity depraved. This. Of course, Is not
true. The real explanation is probably
found In the fact that this Is the only
city where the consistent practice OF
the policy OF relinquishmg ones seat
to a lady implies that one shall never
sit down at all.
