One OF the most interesting situations
in State politics at this time is that will
reference to Gov. Swanson's probable
choice ior the position of State hospital
commissioner, now filed by Col. l.. W,
Lane, Jr., of Williamsburg.
The Governor will not discuss the sub
ject, but the general opinion in circles
not so far removed from His Exccllency
is that the appointment will go to j. NJ
Bauserman, OF Shenandoah county.
So far az is known Mr.. Bauserman and
Colonel Lane are the only applicants.
In connection with the alleged good
prospects OF the Valley candidate, those
who are discussing the subject declare
that it all comes about through the
intimate personal relations between the
Governor and Congressman James Hay
OF the Seventh District.
Mr.. Bauserman is a lawyer, with
Offices at Woodstock. He was once q
member of the House OF Delegates.

CITY BEAUTIFUL.

II HE sentiment for a "city beautiful" should
4 strike a responsive chord in the heart Of
every resident OF Wilmington. The city would
not be ieopardized in the least by an awakening
Of sense of civic pride that would bring with it
an improvement of the streets, general cleaning
up of the highways and byways and the adorning
Of public places. Who will urge that the opening
of public parks has not wrought benefit to the
city, and who will have the temerity to say that
the paving of streets, the creation of flower beds
in triangles and public Squares the removal of
unsghtly billboards and the enforcement of ordi-
nances to prevent the littering of thoroughfares
with waste paper would not elevate the civic
tone of Wilmington and leave better impression
upon its citizens and upon visitors to the metrop-
oils of Delaware?
Sometime ago the Street and Sewer directors
considered the subject of "city beautiful and
now we find that the Board of Trade has taken
practical action toward bringing out this much
needed reform through the appointment by
President Maclean of a committee to consider
methods of enhancing the appearance of the city.
There is no reason why with the transformation
Of muddy street beds into paved thoroughfares,
as contemplated by the Street and Sewer direc-
tors; there should not be general housecleaning
Of Wilmington that would end many Of the dis
pleasing practices that have been far from en-
hancing the attractveness of the municipality.
Now is the time for progressive spirit toward
the goal of a Wilmington beautiful

LET THE PUBLIC KNOW.

M YSTERIOUS and star chamber methods
= Of conducting public business are grow
ing in favor with the city officials The practice
is spreading. If it continues the voters will soon
be kept busy guessing what is going on in public
circles.
1t mSst be remembered that vast sums OF
money may be expended in various city inn
provements, and the people have right to know
what is to be done. Any plans thet the heads Of
city departments may have under consideration
should be discussed by the citizens and opinions
expressed Under the star chamber method there
is absolutely no way Of learning what the people
think Of various schemes and plans that the city
officials may have on foot Treat the people

The experience Of Reading is not different from
that of many other cities, but it is a warning to
voters to be careful about the selections of candi

City officials continually having relations

naturally try to get franchises and privileges for
as little as possible. They endeavor TO have

They are always on the alert and watellfu Of

for other city nominations frequently slip into

PROGRESS OF THE CONSPIRACY"

Roosevelt is not very rapid Senator Foraker, OF
Ohio. is about the only one of the notable lead
ers Of the country who fcarlessy assais the
President Foraker declares that he is ready ior
the combat
Many "feeers' have been put out by others
but they have met with such cool reception that
the authors Of them have quickly side-stepped.
Mayor Reyburn, of Philadelphia the other day
criticised. or was supposed to have commented
unfavorably upon, MIR. Roosevelt. When he
was rebuked the new mayor quickly denied that
he meant in any way to take the President to
task ,.l,s
Attorney General, ,AlcCarter, of New Jersey
presumably special favorite Of the trusts, also
scored the administration and the general con-
duct Of Mr.. Roosevelt at a meeting oflawyers in

ing explanations ever since. Mr.. Perry Belmont,

The recent stand Of the President however
has increased his friends among the Democrats
For INSTANCE, JohntTemple Graves. one Of the
leading Bemocratic editors Of the South at
dinner given Colonel Bryan in Tennessee the
other evening, wasoprepared 10 urge that Bryan
put Rooseteltan nomination for President at the
next Democratic National Convention His
speech was censored.
President Roosevelt has been subjected to.
criticism that may be just, but the people weigh
his good qualities and they find that they largely
overbalance his lapses. Mr.. Roosevelt has firm
hold on the people for many reasons. He has as
serted and maintained that the government Of the
United States is greater than any special inter
ests in the country, and that The nation must
supervise the special interests and not the special
interests control the country. He has stood for
the masses Of the people as against the so-called
classes, and this is just what has caused the
trouble.
But those who imagine that the special interests
will yield without a fierce combat are mistaken.
History proves the contrary Privilege never
surrenders voluntarily, an iota of advantage that
il may hold The special interests in the United
States are powerful, resourceful, backed by
countless riches and alert. They control many
Of the large newspapers, the ablest attorneys are
at their beck and call, and they have endless
means of creating or influencing public opinion
and sentiment Those who agree with Mr..
Roosevelt in his ideas have a great battle before
them. The sentiment Of the country undoubtedly
is behind the President in most of his actions.
Unless there is a strong leader, such as the Presi-
dent one in whom the confidence of the people
cannot be shaken, the special interests will win
