WALL STREET CANDIDATE.

THE HON. JIM GRIGGs' chairman Of the
4 Democratic Congressional Committee IS
not disturbed by rumors of the supposed revolt
among the Democrats against the denomination
OF Colonel William Jennings Bryan for Presi-
dent. Mr.. Grggs at one time was boisterous
shouter for Hearst but he appears to have jump
ed aboard the Bryan band wagon realizing that
when Bryan once gets his voice in motion 1t will
leave in the distance the Hearst ammunition that
is fred by Hearst's editorial proxies.
Griggs discounts. the efforts OF Wall street TO
name as candidate AN opponent Of Bryan. The
attempts Of the Wall street Democrats TO stir
up interest in an opposing candidate are comi-
cal. They have ralSed the country over to dis
cover suitable i-Bryan man. Senator Daniel
has been brought out followed by Senator Cul-
berson Of Texas and now the Hon. Joe Black
burn OF Kentucky is mentioned. The hunt for
the dark horse does not throw much light upon
the situation.
All the opponents of Colonel Bryan, Wall
street included, would prefer Federal Judge
Cray to any other candidate because they know
the Delaware iurist would be strong with the
people He would not be dominated by Wall
street or any other influence and would be by
far the ablest candidate that the Democrats could
name. lie was acceptable TO Bryan at the last
conventions But there is little likelihood of the
nomination of the Delaware man who has been
Indifferent in the matter.
Unless Iudge Gray could be nominated there
is little doubt that Bryan either could be named
or he could control the convention. The selec-
ton of Senator Daniel or Senator Culberson or
any similar candidate would mean repetition Of
the Parker campaign.
Tire Democrats want some dash and enthusi-
asm even though they go down to defeat. Bryan
can make spirited political battle.

That Water Franchise.
Sunday Star.

Sunday Star.
It seems 10 US. in view Of the fact
that the city not long ago decided a
valuable piece Of property TO the Penn
sylvanla Railroad Company, without q
cent Of consideration, but merely be-
cause the company wanted il and tho
city did not need Il, that the company
might now be willing TO reciprocate BY
deciding 10 the city the piece Of land
desired for public park purposes. A
lease Of the LOT in question for ten
years or for any period would be a
trining consideration for the privilege
the company seeks Of laying water
pipes through the city for the accom-
mediation Of its business. While IL may
be true that the city might not profit
by q refusal 10 grant the coveted right
Of way 10 the railroad company, the
privilege would nevertheless be Of
great value 10 the company, and il
could well afford to pay for II by SUR
rendering piece OF ground for which
IL has no immediate use. and which II
may never put 70 any practical pur,
pose.

NEW GAS COMPANY.

A Of the intentions Of the Commercial
Light Heat and Power Company to construct and
operate competitive lighting system. The men
who have doomed the company and secured the

Those who believe the franchise will be sold

The gas monopoly IS strongly entrenched in this
city and, if necessary, can make stiff fight. The
new company when it does start, will likely force
the present monopoly to lower its RIces, and a
gas war will follow. Histories Of gas wars show

agree upon rates, if in the meantime one rival

THE YOUNG GRADUATES.

n HERE is the usual so-called humor about
= the young men and women who are grad
nating from the schools and colleges. How they
are ready to-scttle on the spot all questions with
sheir advice and counsel is dwelt upon These
young ones are about the same as any other kind
of people and often have as much sense as those
who are a great deal older Some Of the grad
yates are puffed up with their own importance
and knowledge real or supposed, but great
many Of them are hard working young people
who already have serious thoughts OF life and
realize the struggles that are before them. II is
no fairer to Judge the whole mass of young people
by the loud talking reckless chap that we fire.
quently see than it is to judge the mass OF men
by the spouters or warm air artists of mature
years who are met with daily in every walk Of
life The young people are all right.

Editorial Opinion
Democratic Candidate

Newark Ledger.
Who viii be the next Democratic guber-
material candidate for DelawareY is just
now receiving some attention. Several
prominent gentlemen have been named.
New CaAtle county, according To- rotation
rule, has nothing 20 say I'm naming a
candidate. II belongs 10 either Kent or
Sussex county, and II there is any devia-
tion from this rule there is a growi which
ends in a split OF the party.
However. at this time it is well 70 dis
cuss this very important question. 1t
should be settled now, as far as IL is adj
visable. But it will be carried TO the pri-
mary election in 1908, and there the peo-
pie will settle the question. The voters
can be enlightened on one or two points.

The commencement exercises Of the Goldey

instructive in calling attention Of the citizens to
this noted institution The graduating class this
year is unusually large and small army Of
young people so forth to engage in active COM

curing employment in this busy age. This is a
high testimonial to the worth of this institution
which has become potent factor in the educa-
