RED TAPE AND THE DYING.

HAT is strange story related by the Lewes
Pilot. sailor bleeding to DEATH accord
ing to the Pilot, was taken to the government
quarantine station in the hope that the physicians
there would give him surgical attendance which
would probably have saved his life. But those in
authority referred the callers who sought aid for
the man TO the government rules, making the sta
ton one for quarantine service and not a hospital
The aid was refused and the Pilot says: mo
matter who was responsible for the attitude OF
the doctors at the quarantine station when help
was asked for that dying sailor no matter
whether it was the fault Of the doctors here or
the department at Washington, every sense of
decency is shocked and outraged. It was almost
criminal and it makes ones blood boil at the
thought of such cruelty, such inhuman and mer-
ciless indifference for poor sailor dying for the
want of little attention. And it is all the more
remarkable because of the humaneness that char
acterizes physicians as a rule. They give aid to
the sick or the injured at all hours of the day or
night often without hope Of compensation. No
class Of men are freer with their charity than are
physicians. Their labor in life is to relieve the
injured, the sick the distressed.
The attitude Of the doctors at the quarantine
station, if the Pilot reports correctly is an e2-
ception to the humane impulses that mark the
labors Of the average surgeon. It is no wonder
that the citizens Of Lewes are indignant because
Of the red tape that prevented the treatment OF
a dying sailor.

NEARLY KILLED BY
FUMES FROM SPRAY

NEWARK. Del, Dec. 2.-Joseph Vought,
a wel-known farmer near here, had a
peculiar accident which came near being
fatal. The weevil had appeared in Mr..
Voughts wheat and to XII the pest he
purchased a gallon of bisulphite Of carbon.
He poured the liquid into a watering pot
and went in the barn TO sprinkle the
wheat in the bins. The fumes Of the dead
Is liquid overcome Vought, and he fell
on the floor. Before going in the barn
he had gotten his team ready TO go to
the creamery. Mrs. Vought noticed the
team standing began to search for her
husband. She found him unconscious on
the barn floor. Medical aid arrived and it
was some time before the man resained
consciousness. If he had remained in the
barn a few minutes longer death would
have resulted.

Editor Wants to be Postmaster.

Delmar News.
AS the public is aware. there are a
number Of applicants for the position Of
Postmaster which becomes vacant about
the first of March Among those promin-
entity mentioned for the position are W.
ii. liayman, f. L. Barker. II. b. James,
and your humble servant, the editor. Mr..
Hayman has been passing around his petit
tion for the past two weeks. and has met
with some success. The editor has the en-
dorsements of the business men OF the
town, however, with but one or two ex-
ceptons. and also has the endorsement Of
about ll5 other citizens. or total Of two
thirds Of the number Of eligible signers in
Delmar. 1t must be understood however,
that this does not mean a certainty of
the position. 1t simply shows that the peo-
pie who patronize the office are backing
us for the job. and if we don't get it will
not be because the people did not assist us
I'm every way possible. We are certainly
proud Of the manner in which they ap-
peared only too glad to be of assistance,
and take this means Of thanking everyone
for helping us.
The present postmaster. Mr.. Charles
c. Tomlinson, whose term viii soon ex-
pire. has certainly proven the best post
master we have had for some time. He
has been invariably courteous to all. and
this fact is appreciated by everyone who
has occasion to use the office. We under
stand that Mr. Tomlinson will not seek
reappolntment, but is satisfied with the
four years he has had the office. He be-
lieves in rotation in office. which opinion
is certainly not in favor with some others
who have held the position.
During Mr. Tomlinson's term in office
he has rendered us many fnvors and we
regret that he feels inclined to retire to
private life again.
