Speech of William S. HiIIes.

Mr.. Toastmaster and Gentlemen;
Possibly Il is because am a country
man that I have been asked to say few
words to you tonight and possibly it is
because as a countryman, 1 can see the
shortcomings Of my city brethren and
friends, that 1 have been allowed to speak.
1 take il that while we are here merry
making TO a large extent, our meeting has
at least one serious and sober aspect.
and 1 have believed all my life-and the
older / grow the more confident ] am i'm
the correctness Of my bellef-that there
is only one trouble about the citizens Of
the State of Delaware, and that is we do
not see enough of each other. CApplause)
1 believe that we ought to know each
other bctter. and 1 believe that we would
then understand each other better. I be-
lieve that there is a stronger bond Of
sympathy which unites every Delawarean
to every other Delawarean than there is
uniting the citizens of any other State
to each other. We are Delawareans; we
are proud of the fact, and we are proud Of
our little State, and proud of each other.
tApplause). The promotion of such an ac-
Quaintance is, as Mr.. Savery has said. one
of the objects of our coming here together
tonight-that we may know each other
better; that we may see each other, and
grasp each others hands, and know that
we have common interests and common
purposes as citizens of a common State
united in seeing that that little State shall
get the best things for its people COM
patible with the interests of all the peo-
pie of the State. (Applause.)
Years ago, the problem of municipal
government was not so serious a problem
as It is now The older centuries wer,
taking up with nation-building. The Ro
man Empire had to be broken up in tn,
old world, new empires founded upon th'
ruins, new countries discovered, new
civilization brought into existence ant
developed, and new nations formed Tha
has been the history of the world up unit
recent times. But now that great problem
has been worked out, at least so far az
these United States of America are con
cerned, for we are one people, with on'
country, one flag, and one purpose al
American citizens. (Applause.) The grea
problem of today is the problem of mu
nicipal government, and i care not wheth
er you take it on this side of the Atlantic
or on the other side. the question whicl
is agitating the people Of this country anS
the people Of all civilized countries toda!
is how properly to govern the munici
pality. We countrymen can take care o
ourselves. and we will try to take carr
OF the municipality too if we get a chance
(Laughter.)
This municipal problem is one in whicl
we Delawareans. whether in Wilmington
or outside are all interested. We are al
proud of the city Of Wilmington; we al
want TO see the city of Wilmington ad

VICTORY FOR WESTERN.
Defeated Central, In Pretty Contest
III to O.

The inability of the Central line yester-
day afternoon to stop the onslaughts Of
the Western backs and tackles lost the
contest to the red and white by score of
IL to 0. 1t was a pretty contest through
out, though a great deal of the interest
was taken from the contest after Western
had piled up eleven points in the first half
of the game, In the latter part of the first
half Central began to wake up after West
ern had sent two men over their goal line.
First they braced and then took the pig
skin from the red and white on downs and
the ball was on Westerns ten-yard line
when time was called.
Probably the largest attendance at any
of the high school games this season wit
messed the contest, and the supporters Of
each of the schools seemed to be about
even. 1t was Westerns time to cheer In
the first half until near the close, when
the Central players did fine work, and IL
Captain Mcdonald had not fumbled the
pigskin inside of Westerns fiye-yard line
Central would certainly have scored Again
the Western tackles were powers In the
line OF the red and white. Farrington's
line bucking was Irresistible while Worth
ington punted well for Western. During
the contest WorthIngton also showed his
ability to hit the Central line for gain
each time he was called upon to advance
the pigsIkin. Sharpe played q remarkably
line game at left end for Western until the
middle OF the second half, when he Was in-
3ured and compelled to leave the same.
