A SERIOUS ouEsrloN.

D5RlNG the past twenty years the
- question of widening Tenth street
from Market to Tatnan has been be-
fore the public in various forms. Al.
no time has any serious objection to
proceeding with the work been offered.
the question being should the street be
made 15. rs or 2i feet wider. Every
one-including the property owners
along Tenth street-recognized thar It
would never do TO contiue for all time.
the miserable conditions which now ex-
list on the connecting link between our
two main thoroughfares- Market street
and Delaware avenue--and the street
and Sewer Department decided that
the building line should be placed back
p feet on the north side. so that after
the street was widened and the tracks
OF the trolley line placed midway be-
tween the curb lines, there would be
ample space for teams to stop in front
OF business places along the street
without interfering with the passage OF
other tranic.
This move was of great value not
only to the Tenth street property own
ers but the citizens generally for the
street had become unsafe for public
travel, owing to the ends OF the long
trolley cars sweeping over. not only the
other track Of trolley line. but act
ually projecting over and sweeping
along a portion Of the sidewalk at
Tenth and Market streets.
People standing on the sidewalk have
been struck by car tenders and the
danger has been repeatedly referred to
as one that might involve the city or
trolley line in a damage suit for per-
sonal injuries.
Under these conditions It seems inn
possible that the Street and Sewer De-
lpartment can. with safety to the gem
eral public, allow the street to continue
for all time at its present width.
II some concession can be made by
which the p feet can be reduced to Is.
1t should be done by all means. but the
citizens generally would feel that we
have taken a step backward II Tenth
street alley is allowed to exist for all
time on the map Of Wilmington.

Can Canvas sill Compete With Coal?
From the Providence Journal.
Much is said in these days by fnan-
clers OF certain class in praise Of the
dement's which the business world de-
rives from the combinations formed to
eliminate competition. BY means OF
them. they argue. expenses are re-
duced, great efficiency made possible
and the price at which the article pro-
duced or the service rendered can -
sold is thus made less. This doctrine
has been inculcated with special SOL
lcitude by the STANDARD Oil co. and
others Of the same school but appar-
entity. in the opinion Of those people.
It is possible TO carry this principle too
far or give its application wrong di-
lrection.
There are five lines OF steamers now
running between New York and Cape
lTown. which about a year ago. after
having been engaged In sharp compe-
tition with one another agreed to COM
bine to the extent. at least. OF having
an agreement under which to work to-
gether The STANDARD oil Company
sends considerable quantities Of its pro-
duct to South Africa. and apparently
does not relish doing business with
such a combination Of freight carriers.
for il Is announced that il intends to
start line Of sailing ships Of its own
on this route. with monthly sailines.
which, besides carrying the company's
oil in cases. will also take general
freight at lower prices than those de-
manded by the combination.
Competition. therefore. it seems. even
in the eyes Of the arch-advocate OF mo-
nopoly. John ID. Rockefeller. has it's ad =
vantages in the carrying trade ana
with such a shining example before
him the average business man can
hardly be- blamed il he. TOO. should seek
to escape from the exactions from
which he suffers at the hands OF com
and secure for himself like
wise the boon OF an active competition
among those who carry his goods to
market.

RUSSIA AND LIBERALISM.

IT HE world viii not question too
4 closely the motives which impen-
ed the Czar by imperial decree to re-
voiuuonize the government and to in
stitute those forms which obtain where
civilization reigns. We may hear that
the czar took this the only means OF
saving his throne. but before the fact
that the most sweeping reforms are
declared from the throne. the matter
Of motives will be overwhelmed In the
rejoicing.
Russian autocracy has accused Amer
lea with pro-Japanese sentiments and
lack Of sympathy with the czar's
government i'm its terrific struggle. But
with the institution OF the reforms
promised, Russia viii find no warmer
friend than America.
our sympathy has been with her
peasants, her artisans and her men OF
letters who have been ground under
the heel Of tyranny; with the perse-
cuted Jews and the poor Fins whose
government was stolen in defiance of
treaty obligations.
A parliament elected by the people is
promised. They are to have free speech
and free press and the Anglo Saxon
writ OF habeas corpus.
We have no fear that these promise,
Of reform are mere sops thrown to tn,
people to quiet them. The Car and
his ministers would not dare resort L
such deception, for were they to with,
draw these pledges that have been hall.
ed with such general rejoicing. neither
the Car nor his ministers could liv,
day in Russia.
We believe that Russia is preparing
to step from theories and practices o.
the middle ages into the progress thai
characterizes the twentieth century
All that her people need is chance tC
display the splendid qualities they un.
doubtedly possess.

From the Louisville Times.
Theodore Roosevelt is getting pretty
close to being fun grown President.
HIS services in bringing to pass and
Ia bringing TO a successful issue the
Portsmouth conference have justly
made him great in the eyes OF the
world but his speeches in his present
tour of the South have done more than
his work for Japan and Russia in max
ling his greatness permanent.
/ If there is one speech more than all
lothers that Is well worth while it was
that delivered at Tuskegee. And. II
there is one sentence i'm it that de-
serves practical application and perma-
lnent remembrance, it is that in which
Mr. Roosevelt declared: 1t is the
Southern people themselves who must
and can solve the difficulties that exis,
in the South" After all it's no more
than plain truth and simple reason, but

ken by Theodore Roosevelt. it means
that. throughout his administration,

II means that the South will be left

CUMBERSOME BALLOTS.

Tn MANY States and cities where
Il elections are TO be held next Tues
day the independent voter. who on the
average is the honest and Intelligent
voter. is experiencing some trepidation
lest by improperly marking his ballot
he shall lose his vote.
In every election we hear words OF
encouragement for the man who wishes
to split his ticket lie is told that It
is very simple and that he must not
get Mustered But that Is just what he
is apt to do. He doesn't vote every day
in the year; he is aware Of pryng eyes
and he knows that after a mistake has
been mace Il cannot be rectidod.
Our ballot laws in general are so ar
ranged that the iliiterate voter can
hardly make a mistake. while the in
telligent man who wants to vote his
sentiments has a delicate task. and by
slight error may lose his vote.
AS a matter Of fact ballot laws are
arranged to encourage the voting OF
straigh; tickets and to penalize the
man who wishes his ballot to repre-
lsent mis- exact sentiments.
Massachusetts has the best ballot
law OF any State. 1t contains no name.
