LET THEM TAKE ALL.

THE hold-up continues one week
Il has been wasted by the Legisla-
ture in the delay IN organizing. and
factional animosities have been en-
phasized A truce is called TN Mon
day when 1t is hoped that some UNDER
standing win be reached.
Now chat an organization should be
effected goes without saying. and to
accomplish that party lines should be
overstepped il necessary. We think
that there can be no question that the
demand Of the Regular Republicans for
the speaker Of one body is fair, and
we are not surprised that st has been
insisted on. But rather than delay
legislation Indefinitely we advise them
to yield their demand and tender to the
Union Republicans every office IN
both Houses. The Regulars would still
have their votes and would possess all
the powers they can exercise under
any circumstances
Yes; give the Union Republicans
every officer OF both Houses. from
Speaker to page rather than COM
promise on few minor ohices that
amount to nothing It win be pleas
ure to sit back and watch Senator Con-
ner and other statesmen OF his stamI
run the legislative machine.
Again we say. II no reasonable anc
decent compromise can be effected, lei
Union Republicans take all. and
then IN future the Regulars can looi
to it that their rights are properly pro-
tected, relying on the word Of nobody
This child's-play is becoming positive
~ disgusting.

rHE PROPOSED LOANS.

TT Is estimated that the various
L sums that the Legislature will be
asked to authorize Wilmington to bor-
row viii aggregate 100000. But IL
good Judgment is used this sum win
be materially decreased. What the
water Commission win require de-
Ponds upon the nature Of the project
1t shall finally undertake, as well aa
upon whether It is to be allowed to
devote It's surplus earnings to the en-
terprise.
Council wants a loan Of 100000 foi
a municipal lighting plant and this
should be denled-and win be. An.
other 100000 is demanded for a new
ICny Hail, but If that contemplates the
razlng Of the present building, that too
should be refused.
The Park Commission wants $4,000
and should have Il. In view Of tho
plans Of that body this sum is con.
servatlve. The street and Sewer De-
partment is asking for 100000, which
seems large. but which may be really
required for necessary extensions anC
improvements.
But even with provision for Tho
Water Department. It would seem tina
we should not increase our bonded In
debtedness by more than a million ant
a half.

ton Of water taken from a point far
Their down the stream. and If we are
assured that under no circumstances
direct pumpage into the mains will
have TO be resorted to. then IL may be
the best solution to adopt the sugges-
tion Of the consulting engineer and
settle on the site IN the Ninth ward.
Il should be borne I'm mind, how
ever. that the cost Of the water rights
las agreed upon, especially the Ban
crofts and DuPonts, is not excessive.
I'm fact. we are convinced that these
firms would not dispose Of these rights

they have agreed to take from the city.

require is too expensive, then we shall

THERE is A QUESTION HERE.

TT MAY be that no licenses should
a be granted for the sale OF intoxi-
cants. That question we do not now
propose to discuss Hut II any licenses
are granted, a great deal Of discrimina-
ton must be used. The court in whose
hands the matter rests, cannot always
know the merits Of particular applica-
tions, and therefore the individuals
and organizations which give advice,
sign petitions and circumstances should
exercise the best judgment.
There are saloons In this town which
are menace, particularly on the
coast where they abound and daily
furnish material for the Municipal
Court In other sections, If saloons are
to exist at all, there are none too many,
and they are conducted with some re-
spect for the law and for the decencies
Of life.
Now all modern cities have to deal
with the problem OF the foreign ele-
ment The people from the continental
countries are accustomed to their wines
and their beer Were to TO prohibit
the sale Of liquors to all persons they
would doubtless obey the law OF the
land OF their adoption; but as long as
intoxicants are sold. they win retain
their old habits.
These observations are brought on,
by the denial OF license to a hotel IN
the Eleventh ward which was intend
cd for the accommodation largely OF
Polanders One priest who is deeply in
terested in the welfare OF these people
signed the application for a license. He
explained his position. These people
would drink; they were accustomed to
It; and it Is better for this drinking to
take place under the law and with
proper surroundings. BY his signature
he vouched for the character and re-
sponsibility OF the applicant.
The Law and order Society opposed
the application, and it was denied. They
won a victory. but in view Of all the
facts. is it a victory for law ana order
and for right living? Who knew thes,
people and their needs best--the priest
who is the spiritual director Of most o
these people or the Law and Order SO.

FIT FOR A KING
Is the "Oriental Limited'' of the
Great Northern Railway

The greatest luxury of travel is afford
ed by the "Oriental Limited" of the Great
Northern Railway. A distinctive feature
of this train is the new compartment OBJ
servation library car. In the construc-
ton of these cars the purpose in view has
been to furnish the travelling public with
every comfort and luxury which they
could secure at u first-class hotel or at
their club. Ease, elegance and excellence
is the combination sought and obtained in
the building of these cars. The observa-
ton rooms of these cars are furnished in
vermillion wood and the chairs are up
holstered in green leather, the remainder
of the furnishings being in harmony
with the general color scheme. The card
room is finished in English oak, with
green leather seat coverings. The four
state rooms, which are unusually large,
are finished in mahogany. COCO. vermil-
lion and tonquin, while the furnishings
are olive. reddish rose, green and maroon
plush, in the order named. The drawing
room is finished in mahogany and all
furnishings are golden brown plush.
The rear half of these cars is devoted to
observation room, handsomely furnished
with easy chairs, writing desks, etc.
Wide plate glass windows afford unob-
structed views of the surrounding coun-
try. Those who enjoy being in the open
air will find comfortable seats on the pro-
tected rear PLATFORM.
Current periodicals, branch of the
Booklovers' Library, also the latest news
papers obtainable at starting point and
enroute are always at the service of pat
rOns.
A good meal enhances the pleasure of q
journey, poor one destroys it. It is safe
to say that of this important feature OF
modern train equipment, the Great North
ern Railway has established standard
for excellence which helps make an over
land journey something to anticipate. All
meals served a la carte.
