The announcement by Representative
Robert Roberts Hit that he viii retire
from public lie al The close Of his present
term in Congress is am oyci,t Of more than
passing interest. For Mr.. Hit is a man
who has had long. active aud prominent
career in public affairs
Mr.. llitt was born at Urbana, Ohio.
January 10th, 1881, aud removed TO Ogle
county, illinois, in 1887, His FIRST public
position was secretary of legation and
charge d'aflairs an interim at Paris from
December 1874, 70 March. 1881. and II
was in this position that he obtained the
general knowledge Of foreign affairs which
especially fitted him for the office Of as
sistant Secretary Of State, to which he was
appointed in 1881 and chairman Of the
foreign affairs committee of the House Of
Representative, which he has held for a
long while. He was first elected to Com
gress in November, 1852, TO m vacancy
and has been continuously reelected
since. His retirement, on March ith,
1907, will close a Congressional career ex-
tending over nearly a quarter Of a century.
Mr. Hit also acquired distinction by
having made a stenogaphic report Of the
great debate between Stephen A. Douglas
and Abraham Lincoln, in 1853 debate
which, as was so truly predicted by Lin
coin at the time, returned Douglas to the
Senate but deprived him Of the Presidency
For Lincoln compelled him to express
himself on the subject of the extension of
slavery in such a manner as TO ALLEVIATE
the sympathy and support Of the Slave
States Democracy without which his
nomination by united Democratic party
was made absolutely impossible, and his
nomination by the anti-slavery wing of
the party, in 1860, simply invited defeat
This division of the Democratic party also
made possible the victory OF the Republi-
can party, and it was the great debate
which Mr.. Hit reported that made Lin
coin the Republican candidate for Prosi-
dent in 1860.
Mr.. Hit, therefore, with his steno-
graphic pencil, made lasting and notable
history of a highly interesting and inn
portant affair.

The suggestion which has been made in
the New York Legislature Of law to pro-
vido for tho opening OF ballot boxes and
the recomting OF tho ballots whenever a
single judge chooses TO order il done. ON
the affidavit OF single petitioner is
opposed by the Now York Times as a
"monstrous thing Il much prefers tho
former law Of New York, orc prepared liy
Samuel J. Tilden. with It's provision that
all ballots should be destroyed 90 election
night, excepting Que specimen Of every
kind cast. This specimen. with a GER
tihcate Of how many such ballots there
were, was ample basis for legal contro-
versy- Under this law the plurality Of
100 given to Mr. Cleveland in the State
Of New York, at the election Of 1881. was
unassailable, as there was no opportunity
TO open the ballot boxes and fraudulently
manipulate the ballots so as to overcome
this narrow margin which might easily
have been done had the ballots been ao-
oessible
II will not do 10 assert that such a
criminal manipulation Of the ballots after
they have been canvassed by election
officers is not possible We have positive
evidence to tho contrary at the election Of
1904 in New Castle county The returns
Of the Fifth Levy Court district, as can
passed on election night showed a major
ity Of four votes for John W Morrison
Democrat, over Robert McFarlin, Repub-
lican. But when the returns were cam
yassed by the Superior Court, two days
later, six ballots-hve Democratic and one
Repuhlican-in the box Of one Of the
Newark districts, were found to be so
plainly and palpably pencil-marked that
the court was compelled to reject them,
leaving the vote between Morrison and
McFarlin a tie, whereupon the governor
appointed the latter to the office These
ballots we're not so mutilated when they
were canvassed by the election officers on.
the night Of the election, for all three Of
the ofiioials-one Republican and two
Democrats, careful and capable men
made affidavit to this effect. The mark
ings were made by rasoally election thieves
with deliberate intent 20 rob Morrison Of
the Office, between the time the ballot box
was closed by the election officers and
opened by the judges Of the court.
A system by which ballots are burned
after being counted would have prevented
this villainous theft Of an Office in New
Castle county.

CURRENT LITERATURE

The Theatre Magazine continues 70 grow
in size, importance and interest. The
marked interest in the advertising pa
tronage this unique publication enjoys
proves that once more the dOleful pre-
dietiOns of the experts were wrong, and
that a theatrical monthly conducted, not
as an organ for imaginative press agents,
but honestly and competently in the best
interests of the dramatic art, can gain the
respect and confidence of the theatre
going public and acquire permanent and
successful position among our leading
magazines. The February issue, just out,
shows a marked increase in the number OF
pages devoted TO text matter, and there is
an astonishing array Of splendid pictures.
Not the least important among the pic
torial features is a large and strkingly life
like portrait Of Miss Maude Adams as
Peter Pan" exquisitely reproduced in
IA colors. The literary matter is up to
the usual standard and includes an article
by David Warheld, the successful inn
personator Of "The Music Master" who
gives an interesting account Of his early
struggles before he made his first real hit
as a Hebrew peddler Edw Fales Coward
describes the palatial new home of the
Lambs Club, one of the most famous and
successful actors clubs in the world, and
this is illustrated by fine photographs
especially taken. W. G. FitzGerald gives
an account of the splendid home which
Coquelin, the distinguished French actor,
has built for his needy fellow players near
Paris, this likewise being profusely illus
trated. Elise Latrop continues her
interesting dissertations on the Shake
speare plays, and there is an extremely
well-written description, with pictures,
of the collection Of curios left by Henry
Irving Under the title Of "The Passing
of the Minstrel, Augusta de Bubna writes
reminiscently Of the darkey impersonator
as he was 30 years ago, and Florence
Tucker gives an interesting account Of
William Gillette's "shack" among the
wilds of North Carolina. Recent events
in the musical world and on the stage are
reviewed with the customary frankness
and authority. The pictures includes scenes
from Julie Bonbon, "a Case Of Arson. -

When there were no millionaires in tia
country, 100 years ago, the people fell
down in homage to "the quality or to
the clergy, or to the STAKEHOLDER. In New
England, which was supposed TO be 90
democratic, the students Of Harvard and
other colleges were rigidly classified
according to the social, official or sacredotsl
importance Of their fathers, and accorded
precedence or condemned to insignifcancs
in pursuance of that classification. In
the South a man was honored according to
the number of slaves he possessed. As
the quality" lost its grip and the relative
importance OF money rose an alphabet
cal classification was substituted for the
old precedence by social pull" We still
make up our lists of people by the alpha
bet, preserving at least the outward sem
blance of equality. If we put them ulti.
millionaire at the top of the list in our
minds we thereby at least recognize the
right Of any other man to get ahead Of him
by the simple expedient Of getting
Sl,000,000 more than he has. It Is
democracy, but a yellow, not a red,
democracy.
Through the mask of pretence the
people see that money is really the thing
that our sober and thrifty race is after, and
and they crowd to honor men and women
who have obtained il.

Provinces, towns and villages not in
cluded ia the personally conducted and
convoniionally designed tours are most
delightfully."- described by Mr.. Rudy who
loves and knows Spain as do few Others
belonging on this side of the Atlantic;
for Spain IS not usually included in the
ordinary itinerary.
Concerning Spanish architecture in
general he has said many interesting
things IN the preface. He likens Spain to
an island on whose coast huge breakers
burst and, as time passes. shape the island
according TO their will The breakers
represent varied STYLES of architecture
which prevailed throughout Europe at
different periods The earliest elements
were Iatin-Lombard and Byzantine
from the cast Gothic from the
north; Arab or Moorish from the south.
The renaissance breathed new life into
these by adapting them TO a new religion
or faith and all later architectural forms
were but periodical revivals or combi-
nations of these early elements
Everything is totally different from the
pure styles Of architecture which prevail
in France Mr.. Rudy thinks a COM
hination of styles quite as admirable as
one style used IN lbs purity, provided, of
course that harmony and a sense of what
is artistically beautiful have been regarded
in the combining.
The least Spanish Of all SPANS cathe-
drals is that of Leon. which is
flawless Gothic; in all the others
there is luxurious moulding to-
gether of an styles Wealth power and
luxury IN detail is generally the lesson
which Spanish cathedrals teach,
Each short chapter is occupied with the
description OF one of these celebrated
oathcdmls AL OF which date any
where from the Eighth TO the
Fifteenth Century. The accompany
ing stories of prelates, saints, kings and
mobiles are exceedingly spicy The prints
OF the ediiices evidence the remarks which
the author gives concerning them. In all

Netherlands and Belgium, although
among the smallest Of the European coun-
tries, rank next to the United Kingdom,
Germany and France in their Importance
as markets for products of the United
States. The United Kingdom is the
largest European purchaser of American
commodities, Germany next in rank, then
France, then Netherlands, and then Bel
GUM. The total exports from the United
States to Netherlands amounted in the
fiscal year 1905 to s73 100000, and our
imports from Netherlands to practically
S22,000,000; our exports TO Belgium in
the same year were 3S,5OOO0O, and our
total imports thereirom practically S26.-
100000, giving us a total Of S16O, 100000
of trade with these two small countries,
whose combined area is less than that of
the State of Ohio and whose combined
population is but 100000.
The total exports from the UnitedStates
TO these countries, as shown by the reports
ofthe Department Of Commerce and Labor
through its Bureau of Statistics, were, in
1905, Slll,5O0,0OO against s56,O00,0OO in
1895, and S43,OO0,OOO in 1885. Our i'm
ports from the two countries in 1905 were
practically S4s, 0O,OOO,against sos, 900, 600
in 1895, and Si4,0OO,OOO in 1885. The
growth both in our exports to and imports
from these two countries during the last
decade has been larger than that of the
preceding decade.

In some parts Of Pennsylvania the pro-
position TO have legalized primaries
expenses of which, in order to make the
system effective, are met by appropria-
tons from public treasuries-is objected
to on the ground that they would prove
very expensive. Opposition to the pro-
Jet is being stirred among members Of the
Pennsylvania Legislature, now in special
session at Hanisburg,on this score, and it
is said TO be having effect upon the coun-
try district members, even upon those who
are in favor Of honestly conducted pri-
mary elections.
We have not the figures at hand from
other communities, but so far, as New
Castle county, where legalized primaries
have been the rule for more than a dozen
years, is concerned, we can say that the
expense involved is not serious obiec-
ton. The burden is not a heavy one, by
any means, while the benefits that follow
in the trail Of logalized primary elections
are so great that the people Of New Castle
county would cheerlully support a much
larger burden Of expense sooner than
forego legalized primaries and return to
the old system of cheating and trickery
Under our Primary Election law party
primaries in this county have been CON
Quoted with commendable fairness. For
merly they were tmvesties upon the cleo
tive system, particularly those held by
the Democratic party from 1850 until the
enactment Of the Primary law. Now the
old practices are unknown and departures
from the straight line in>the conduct of
primary elections have boon very few.
The most serious oifendmes, which were
perpetrated at the Republican primaries
in 1904, were attended with such severe
punishment Of the offending parties that
there is little danger Of a repetition Of the
offence for years TO come.
Surely, a system which permits people
10 send primary election rascals y prison
and gives thom honest primaries
is ono that shoule not be rejected by any
community on the ground of expense.
Such a system is worth a great deal Of
money, and yet its cost is not excessive.
