Fan Of RaIfour Ministry.

RALFOUR has quit. The conservative party
after long lease of power in Great Britain, has
toppled The ministry has resigned. When Bal
four successor to his relative Lord Salisbury as
csnded TO the premiership the conservatives were
entrenched strongly. The Liberals were as far down
and out as are the Democrats in this country. In
fact since the death Of Gladstone he Liberals have
not had definite, viriie policy leader who COM
PEELED the confidence OF his party. But even strong
parties overstep themselves.
Balfour had not the genius for political leadership
that Salisbury possessed, Joseph Chamberlain be-
came potent factor in the Conservative party. His
Liberal unionst ideas. 50 called, became engratted
on large element OF the government H proposed
fiscal reform plans evidently have not met with the
support of the British masses. The I'ish question
was always in sight to vex.
Balfour met defeat last July his Irish reappor-
tionment bill Since then it has been a question Of
time only before his cabinet would retire. Recent
adverse results in few elections hastened the down
fall The next election, however will tell the tale
of whether the voters are ready to conde the coun
trys interests into the keeping Of Sir Henry Camp

was great demonstration in honor of civic improve

State government as well, that the people earnestly
desire municipal improvements The streets were
we'll paved, as was attested by the merry dancers.
We wish that all the streets of Wilmington could be
in the same condition.
The demonstration last night ought to impress the
