The RusInssa Situation.

Bradstreet's says: "Springlike weather
stimulates iobbing distribution, inducing
larger volume Of house trade and also
helping retail business in spring and sum-
mer iabric cs. Crop preparations are going
forward actively, and at the South some
actual planting has been done. Shipments
on orders are heavier than ever before
and no complaints Of freight congestion
arc heard. At practically all points an
early and long spring season is predicted.
AT the same time there is an air Of con-
servatism as to the more distant future.
due mainly TO the larger stocks of winter
goods carried over, and also because of the
recent heavy drop in raw cotton, making
buyers for next season cautious in placing
orders. Like conditions are noted in the
leading industries. Iron and steel pro-
duetion, while of unprecedented volume.
is largely for the first half of the years
requirements, far future orders being Of
lighter volume.

week OF 1905, 200 in 1904, 1856 in 1903 and
204 in 1902. In Canada failures for the
week ending Thursday number 80 against
2S last week and p in this week year

r. G. Dun 4 Co.'s Review says: "Holi-
days and erratic weather were calculated
to interrupt progress in commercial chan
nels, but business has become established
on too sound basis to reflect adverse in
huences of such a temporary character
Jobbers of dry goods, clothing and notions
are shipping large quantities of spring
goods, accumulations of heavyweight
wearing apparel having no depressing
effect on the new seasons business. Prices
are firmly held as a rule, except in the
markets for farm staples, which are still
higher than normal, despite a general
reaction. Manufacturing plants report
new orders. Railway earnings continue
to make splendid comparisons with last
years figures, February thus far recording
gain Of 26.7 per cent. Foreign trade
returns in January for the whole nation
far surpassed the same month in any pre-
vious year"

Where We Drav, tno LIno.

News was cablcd from Contantinople
a few days ago, to the effect that United
States Minister Leishman had warned the
Foreign Minister of Turkey that the con-
sent Of the United States will have to
be obtained before Turkey can levy in
creased duties on imports of American
goods. It was added, however, that in
diplomatic circles doubt exists as TO how
far the United States win be justified in
adopting this line Of tariff coercion.
Whatever legal questions may arise
from this controversy, there will be no
doubt as to the practical side Of it. And
that is that the protest Of the United States
against an increase Of Turkish tariff taxa
tion Of American products is, under ex-
isting circumstances, as glaring an act
Of national impudence as history ever
recorded.
Our situation is this: We have enacted
the highest tariff taxation in the world
against the trade Of other nations, and
we refuse to abate it to the slightest ex-
tent. We make an occasional bluff at
abatement through reciprocity, but
almost invariably It is reciprocity with
club" We insist upon the heaviest
tax on foreign trade with this country
but we kick like a herd Of steers when
foreign countries show the slightest dis.
position to retaliate in kind by imposing
high tariff taxes upon trade from the
United States.
Such inconsistency would be ridiculou.
we're Il not so serious. And the most
serious feature Of the situation is that
the political majority in Congress, although
ready TO 80 to war in an effort to prevent
foreign countries imposing undue taxa
ton upon trade from the United States
will not listen to even the suggestion that
we show some spirit of liberality in om
tariff taxes upon trade from foreign coun-
tries
"Fair play is jewel" So is free trade
But there is no fair play in imposing high
taxes upon trade. While to tax trade
with this country and then insist upor
untaxed foreign markets for our OWL
products is but the policy Of the hos
in the swill trough.

Union Republican Activity

The signs Of activity among the Union
Republicans of Kent and Sussex counties
are significant. The party organizations
there are forming in line of battle, and
preparations are under way for an early
Inauguration Of this years political cam
paign.
These indications Of activity are in line
with the Union Republican programme
as revealed in a special correspondence
from Georgetown which was printed in
Every Evening several weeks ago Il
was therein set forth that the plan of the
Union Republicans this year was to "cut
loose absolutely from New Castle county,
except for the few legislative districts
which may afford encouragement TO the
election Of Union Republican candidates,
and concentrate their energies in a supreme
effort to carry every Senatorial and Rep
resentative district in the two lower
counties, thereby securing a clear Union
Republican majority on joint ballot in
the next Legislature. With such a ma
iority, the Union Republicans would elect
both United States Senators, one Of whom,
of course would be AddiclSs.
Since the puhlication Of that letter the
Union Republican Committee of Sussex
county has assembled and strengthened
its lines by practically deposing secre-
tary of State Cahall from leadership and
installing Dr. c. r. Layton. On Thurs
day the Union Republican Committee
Of Kent county met at Dover and con-
sidered campaign plans. Addicks at
tended the latter meeting in person and
received an ovation. Senator Alice ar
rived at a late hour and AddiolSs turned
his back on him, thus keeping up their
pretence Of an open rupture,
The scheme Of the Union Republicans
is apparent, They are to make desperate
efforts TO capture Kent and Sussex coun-
ties Alice, by his pretended repudiation
Of Addicls, hopes to draw the support Of
Regular Republicans to Addicks candi-
dates for the Legislature. And if the
scheme succeeds, Addicks will 70 to the
Senate.
But Il Is safe to predict that it will not
succeed.

Josephine NJ. r. White on the value of
preventive medicine or as it might have
been called, protective sanitation. In
her practice she had four cases in sue
cession of diphtheria among children who
had been attending school for a week
before the nature OF their illness was sus-
pected and a doctor called in; and the
other children in the school we're sub
iected during this time to the danger
OF infection. Three of these patients
died, possibly because treatment had not
been given in time Anti-toxin has been
proved a valuable remedy when admin
istered in the early stages of the
disease and these children's lives might
have been spared il their illness had been
recognized in the beginning, and she
urged the club to continue its advocacy
OF the plan Of having a competent person,
a physician or trained nurse, to inspect
the children in the schools daily and also
of having the laws Of cleanliness and sani-
tation taught in the public schools. The
children of foreign parentage, of whom
we now have many in our midst, know
little but what the teachers tell them and
they need instruction as to personal clean
illness, fresh air and cleanliness in their
homes. In her practice DR.. White has
been called TO homes so unclean that they
not only endangered the health Of their
occupants, but the children going to
school from them are a menace to the
health of the other children with whom
they are brought in contact. As the
Board of Health has the power to en-
ploy inspectors who oblige property
owners to connect with sewers, to NOV
the grass on vacant lots, &C., why cannot
their authority be extended so as to see
that the people who dwell In the tenant
houses keep them clean, well aired and
sanitary

In the current issue Of Newspapcrdom
James McCutcheon writes editorially, as
follows:
No one with an actual knowledge Of
newspaper conditions in Delaware can
successfully argue against the right of
Every Evening to be classed as the "Win-
ming Daily" in that State. 1t is the one
paper which most everybody in Whining
ton reads
The history Of Every Evenings sue
cess in Wilmington is simply a repetition
of the old story Of furnishing good clean,
reliable newspaper at a popular price;
newspaper that is as welcome to the
family circle as a member of the family;
newspaper that has the confidence Of
its readers and one which aims at all
times to prove itself entirely worthy Of
that confidence. Every Evenings circu-
lation has grown steadily and always on
the merits Of the paper No silverware,
dishes, cook books or Bibles, or any
thing Of the nature, has ever been offered
70 induce anyone TO become a reader
And yet there is probably no city in the
country that has been worked" with
newspaper premium propositions more
than Wilmington.
Every Evenings value as an advertis-
ing medium is no better illustrated than
in the volume of classified business il
carries. With a rate in excess Of any
other paper in the city Every Evening
carried more classified advertising than
all the daily and Sunday papers in the
city combined. In various tests of the
relative value of the different newspapers
OF the city Every Evening has never yet
failed to "make good" and in many
cases has been known to furnish more
direct results than three other daily papers
Every Evening issues detailed statements
OF circulation regularly every year and
is the only newspaper in Wilmington
which accepts advertising on the basis
OF a guaranteed circulation.
II there is a "Winning Daily" any.
