In the death of John Hay, the
distinguished Secretary of State
under two administrations, the
United States Government has lost
one of its most able men. Secre-
tary Hay has done much for the
world as well as for the country of
his nativity, as his efforts have
been towards peace and harmony,

contemplates his death with sorrow

MANY a merchant who lies awake
all night devising plans for the
most advantageous use of his floor
space, gives comparatively little
attention to the advantageous use
of advertising space. The first
question ought not to be how to
handle the crowds when they visit
the store, but how to get them there.
The home newspaper solves the
problem. It is faithful messen-
ger which carries the daily store

to keep posted.

RIOT and disorder has been un.

during the past few months,a and as
we suggested last week, the only
way to keep control is by vigorous
enforcement of the law, and the
limit of fines and Imprisonment for
all such offences. Unless this is
done the law-abiding people will
arise in wrath and mete out pun
ishment as to them seems best.

IHE Morning News calls atten-
ton to a condition of affairs for
which the whole of Sussex county
should blush with shame; the mis-
cradle make-shift for a county Jail;
which is not only not a jail, but its
sanitary condition jeopardizes the
county seat, and has done so for
years. The News says
Again has the Georgetown sieve
called a jail-lost most of its
prisoners This is the third Incl
dent of the kind within a year. Yet
the Sussex county people object to
sending their long-term prisoners
to the wOrkhouse at Greenbank. !
Sussex county should either build |
a new Jail or send its prisoners to
some place that does not leak.
THE sheriff's offi-e in both Kent
and Sussex counties would have
been made salaried to comply with
the constitutional mandate, years
ago, if it was not for the graft the
people are paying out for board of
prisoners. In this one thing alone
may be found the secret of opposi-
tion to State workhouse, or the
placing of prisoners in the present |
workhouse in New Castle county.
The people are apathetic about this I
matter but it is high time that they !
become aroused to action for a re- !
form. It is neither Just to the f

Competent. but Unprejudfced.

In the course of the year Parson
Whitaker received many calls to mar
ry, christen and bury in the villages
round Candy, so it often happened that
his services were required in families
of which he knew little more than the
name Of the person on whose behalf
he was to officiate.
One day he was summoned to a lone
ly farm to perform the burial service.
On arriving there after some vicissi-
tudes he was met by forlorn looking
man who was evidently in charge of
affairs.

which l should speak! p
