WELCOME TO MR.. WHITNEY.

M r. a. J. WHITNEY, JRr the newly-ap-
II pointed superintendent of the Delaware
Railroad Company, has assumed his duties in
this city and will be cordially received by the
employees of the company and the people of the
State Mr. Whitney is from that nursery OF eff
cient railroad managers Altoona, and the system
that the company employs in its promotions is a
guarantee that he is a competent man for the po-
sition His predecessor. the late r. L. Holiday,
came to Delaware from Pennsylvania, but he was
soon acquainted with the people of the State,
and was an important factor in our life his death
being amented by hosts Of friends
The Delaware division headquarters under MIR.
Holiday were located at Clayton, and the super
intendent naturally was more in touch with the
lower end of Delaware than Mr. Whitney will
be for some time at least. The new superintend-
ent, under the change made by the company, has
his headquarters in this city, and he will be a
valuable addition to Wilmington. OF late years
many newcomers have made their homes in Will
mington. They are all welcome. We want more

Mr. Whitney will find the Delaware division a
very well equipped railroad system. The en-
ployes are loyal and faithful popular with the
people at large and we doubt if any of the sub
ordinate branches Of the great Pennsylvania sys-
tenn has been better conducted or brought more
returns than this road in Delaware. The new

to the high standard of efficiency that it has at
cs.rned under long line of competent officials.

Delaware State News
We have taken occasion in the past
to criticise the official acts of mem
bers Of Congress from this State, and
not long ago we felt il a duty to cali
the attention Of the people of this
State TO a certain vote in the House
OF which $4,000 is to be expended on
Congress from this State-Dr. Hiram
r. Burton. We shall continue TO hnG
fault with the action OF our repre-
sentauves In Congress when, in our
judgment. they are not IN accordance
with the best interests Of the peoph
Of this State, yet at the same time
we fee, it clearly our duty when their
acts deserve commendation to give
them the praise due.
In examining the River and Har-
Dor bill enacted by the last Congress
we find the work of Dr. Burton has
borne good fruit and he is deserving
of much credit for his labors IN the
matter Of the waterways of this State.
His labors in securing $4,000 for
the Wilmington harbor for the i'm
prOvemend of Appoquinimink. Nun
derkill and Mispillion rivers $4,000,
Of with $4,000 is to be expended on
the Mispflion; for improving the ST.
Jones river for maintenance, $4,000:
and for the maintenance Of Smyrna
river $4,000; FOR Improvement oi
Broadlliln river. continuing improve
ment, S3S,33O; for maintenance Of
Broad Creek river, Delaware Sf,5Oo.
In addition TO the above we find au-
thority for a new project survey, ETC..
for Smyrna river. and for a canal con-
meeting Rehoboth bay with the Della
ware bay through Lewes creek.
Dr. Burton had the hearty cooper
alton OF senator Alice who we know,
ters. yet as all Of the items appear in
ters. yet a SAN Of the items appear in
the bin as Il was passed by the House
Of Representatives, with the exception
Of the survey for Little river which
was the sole work Of Senator Alice.
very much Of the credit for these i'm
provemonts TO the waterways Of this
State is due to Or. Burton and we
take Measure IA calling the attention
Of the people Of this State to his
work in the last Congress. If DR.. Bur-
ton shall follow up in the next Com
gress what he has done In the Con-
gress past the people Of this state
will soon be placed In a position
whereby they will be less at the mercy
Of single raj road than now. It is
a self evident fact that the only sure
and permanent relief from the dis
eliminating and outrageous freight
charges of railroads Is through the inss
provement Of the waterways Of the
country When these are improved
and made nayigable they are the prom
erty Of every man who desires to fioS
a bottom upon their waters and no
combination or trust can ever be form
ed by which the control Of the nav
gable waters Of the country can pass
into the hands of the millionaire ella -
II should be the duty Of every citi-
zen OF this state to support in every
way the efforts Of those who repre-
sent them IN the Congress Of the
United States IN securing all appro-
priations that may be necessary to
bring TO perfection this great re ief to
the producers of the state.

Curse Of Drink.

Editor The Evening Journal.
We often read i'm the papers about
old topers and those addicted to the
habitual use Of intoxicating liquors.
yet we seldom ever read about the
sufferings 1t causes to the many poor
women and children who by reason Of
the intem7erance OF their Fathers and
husbands are Obliged 20 stay at home
amid sqCalid surroundings and go with
out the necessities of life in order that
the tlirst for intoxicants may be as
suaged.
IL seems as if some Law might be
passed whereby a saloon keeper might
he prevented from selling rum to the
man who ha5itually neglects his FAM
Ny, and I believe # this would be done
there would be fewer babies and little
children going ragged ana hungry on
thq city streets.
Respectfully yours,

THE HARVEST FIELD.
lBy John N. DorneyD


In "The Evening journal" OF recent
date / read an item to the effect that
in the Wilmington and Brandywine
cemetery there are nearly 1900 bodies
interred-the first body was buried
there In 1S44-the cemetery was carved
out OF the old Wollaaton farmland the
sloping hillside was usually sown i'm

there was in July 1S4s.

Warm the air as from a furnace

In the en- the river murmurs
with flowers perfumc-the air is

With scythe in hand, stand reapers

Birds are singing down I'm the glen
As reapers NOV, the b.lowy grain
In truth they reap potential men.
on every hand sweet nature smiles
The nodding trees-the murmuring
stream
Not yet the scars Of schemers' wiles
Ills as 1t were sweet natures dream
The old farm house-the water mill
wild flowers are growing in the glen
on tree and bush the birds do thrill
And the harvest is-potential men.

The sloplng hillside still is there
The murmuring stream pursues its
way
But sounds Of babel rent the air.
on every side is deadly fray.
There's piles Of mortar, brick and stone
The scenes OF peace we see no more
From hearts Of men there comes a
moan
'Tis heard above the city's roar.
Where once the green grass lined ths
road
Where grew the flowers wild and
sweet
Where farmers sons sweet hay did
load
We hear the roar from city's street.
There's grating sounds Of mill and
steam
Where once was quiet down in the
