THE revolution in Russia has
been filling the newspapers of the
world with wild stories of massacre
and riot for the past week. The
Emperor of all the Russians ap-
pears to have failed to realize the
crisis in which his reign is passing,
and altogether has proved to be a
very weak man for so great task ;
but has shifted the burden upon
the men who are attempting to
crush the rebellion with the army.
The laboring classes are demanding
a limited monarical form of govern
ment for Russia, and insisted that
the Car should receive their peti-
ton setting forth their desires, and
assigned as a reason for presenting
them direct, that former petitions
never reached him but were refused
by his advisers. The Gar refused
to receive their petition and the
military prevented them from de-
livering it in person by shooting
into the marching people, killing
and wounding hundreds. A stronger
man would have met the situation
differently and probably save the
shedding of blood.

AT last the senate has organized
and the two factions have found
that there was but little if any real
difference between them. How
much better it would have been to
have reasoned" together and
avoided all these weeks of suilen
strife and comment from outside
sources. It now looks as if the
way is paved for common primaries
and one united republican party in
Delaware. There is, and possibly
will be, honest difference of opinion
as to the senatorship, but that
question will not prevent the bring
ing together of the the factions in
the republican party of Delaware;
even though no agreement for a
senator is reached in this leg
islature. The conditions have
changed since the bolt of 1896
and the methods of legislation of
this day makes seperate organiza-
tions in the party of no avail to
accomplish the purpose of those
who bolted. We hope to see the
passing soon of seperate arganiza-
tions among republicans, and we
believe that the work of last We'd
nesday will bring it about.

ORGANIZATION.

We're gettin' kind O. frustrated like
Down on St Jones crick,
It seems the wheels O. progress
Amt runnin' very slick;
A certain few are hOldin' UP
The legislative works,
To get a job for Jimmy Flab
An Mickey Doc, as clerks.
A crowd came down the other day
An tux us by surprise;
Said "the country was a waitin'
Fur to see us organize"
So we got our heads together,
But were somewhat at loss,
In reachin' a decision
Bout which one of us was boss.
Of patriotic ferver, why
There wasn't any lack;
Each one was fur drivin'
Not fur ridin' at the back;
Each one of us was certain
That our feet were bound to trip,
If the grand procession started
Meath another's leadership;
We naggled an we argued,
OF cuss words used a few,
We exhausted every effort
Fur to put the question througe,
Then settled down an voted
Fur a speaker, span an spick,
Now the factory is rannin
Down at Dover on the crick.

EVERY citizen should promptly
clear the snow from sidewalks in
front of their property without
waiting to be driven by officers OF
the law. At times like the present,
aside from the public comfort, the
work of shoveling snow is a great
aid to the needy, and will help to
eak out a scanty supply for many a
family. Don't wait to be driven to
clear the sidewalks; do it with
promptness and with good grace.

T. T. Hines, superintendent of the lime stone quarry at Lees Station, was in town today on business. Mir. Hines has been improving the work at the quarry since his management there. until now the output is more than double what it was when he as. sumed charge.
 In effecting this increase Mir. Hines has improved and added to the ma chinery of the plant and the number of men working, until there is now a matter of 100 employees.
 When he assumed charge the stone was being handled by six tramcars of sixty tons capacity each, and with this outfit eight cars were sent to the Copper Queen smelter every day.
 Mir. Hines has just doubled the mum Der of trans and Is now shipping eighteen cars daily. Efforts are be ing made toward the equipment of the plant so that twenty-five cars can be shipped. The shelter does not re quire this much stone, but it is the intention to lay in a big reserve sup ply in case of emergency.
 Mir. Hines is also getting out a quantity of tufa stone which is going to the Copper Queen shelter. This stone will be used to build another large ore bin.
 Mir Hines has two valuable assist ants in this work, A W. Flickinger, who is store keeper. and Victor Shill, who is foreman of the works.

DOUGLAS SALOONlSTS SAID
 TO HAVE SOLD WRISKEY
TO A LITTLE GIRL AND PRoPRI EToRS OF ICEBERG SALOON
 WERE ARRESTED.
John Berger Procures Warrant for Ssloonmen, Who Are Charged With Violation of City Ordinance Prohib iting Sale of Liquor to Children.

M. Spikes and Joe Franklin, pro. prietors of the Iceberg saloon, were arrested yesterday afternoon on infor. nation furnished by John Berger, charging them with selling liquor to a minor. Berger's interest in the case is due to the fact that the whisky was for his wife. The trial will be held before Judge Mcdonald this after noon.
 Spikes said that he was asleep at the time the child, a little Mexican girl seven years of age called with an order for 25 cents worth of whisky, signed by Mrs. Mary Berger. Frank lin honored the order and later the warrant was served.
 This will prove a most interesting case to local attorneys, as it is the first time in the history of Douglas that the city ordinance prohibiting the sale of liquor to minor male chil' dren by order will have been tested
 According to Marshal Stambaugh the ruling of Mayor Overlook on this subject is to the effect that minor male children, provided with an order from some adult, can purchase whisky for the signer of the order, but this does not apply to girls.
 It is the opinion of certain attorneys that Mrs. Berger is equally guilty with the proprietors of the saloon in sending the girl after whisky. The of the law at present is that one cannot send the child of another for such a purpose without first securing the parents consent. In this case it is said that Mrs. Der. ger merely asked the girls mother If she could go on an errand for her, not specifying the purpose of the errand
