ALL READY FOR CONFERENCE

Methodist Episcopal Churches are all
ready for the session of the Wilmington
M. E. Conference, which will open at
Smyrna on March 20 and continue until
the business of the session is disposed of.
Many of the ministers will be able to re-
port an increase in the membership of
their churches and number will be able
TO report that their churches have been
cleared of debt.
From present indications the sessions
Of conference will be quiet and unevent-
full except in the quantity of business to
be transacted. There are no trials to
agitate the members and nothing out of
the ordinary work of the church to bs
considered. There will be much -5Csi-
hess, however, and the encouraging re-
ports which are expected from all parts
of the conference territory will prove in
teresting. Many believe that the reports
will be the best which have been pre-
sented in a number of years.
The Rev. Robert Watt, pastor of AS
bury M. E. Church, Smyrna, where the
conference will meet, and the members
Of that congregation are now busy pre-
pairing for the meetings. The program
will soon be arranged. There will be no
difficulty in providing entertainment, for
all of the members of conference and the
official visitors, as the people of the town
we're anxious to have conference meet
there and are glad to have the oppor-
tunity of entertaining the ministers DUR
ing their brief stay in that place.

COMMON JOYS ARE SWEETEST

"What have to be thankful for 2"
Well, there's plenty of good, sweet air
Did you ever thank God for All Out
Doors,
With its wide-open cure of care?
"What have 1 to be thankful for 2"
Why, the water runs all day
Gods liquorl Go ask the ship-Wrecked
wretch
What he'd give for what you throw
away !
"What have to be thankful for ?"
Have you ever met with Love?
Have you seen an eye light up for you ?
That'sa CLEAN from the God above.
Does the seft-footed angel of Sleep visit
you?
At your table waits Appetite2
Do you know any little child who is glad
When you come home at night?
IT'S the common joys of common men
That are sweetest, after all;
For turtled feasts and fevered wines
Leave an after-taste of gall.
So pick up the diamonds you've tram
pied on,
There's Love and Life and Youth;
And it's thankful to God we all would be
If We loved the simple truth.
Frank Crane IN Boston Herald.

DON'T HAVE 'EM,HERE

In every community there are some
fellows that exist and how they do it is
the wonder of busy people. They will
do days work occasionally, if the wages
are large and everything favorable. If
sickness or other trouble overtakes for a
day or two they are around asking for
charity. If a farmer is liable to lose lot
of grain in harvest or threshing and asks
one of these fellows to 60 help him, just
as like as not be will refuse. The ice
man in his harvest may need some one
badly but they will not help. The very
existence of the community depends on
the harvest and care of the various COM
modities. This being true there should
be a law passed compelling such charac-
ters to work when they are called on.
Whenever there is demand for laborers
in useful employment, and there are men
standing around doing nothing, they
should be put to work and made to bear
their part OF the burdens of life.-Ex.

ROAD LOAN BILL
Governor Lea Did Not Commit Himself
For or Against the Measure

Dover, Dell, Feb. 26 Friends of Cover.
nor Lea are far from pleased at some of
the methods used by those advocates of
the half-million-dolla road debt saddler
bill who pretended that the Governor
was favorable to and backing the bill to
try to get votes for it.
One of the most potent reasons given
by the men backing the half-million bill
to combat the opposition was that Cover
nor Lea had expressed approval OF the
measure when shown to him, and that
he desired it passed.
Now it develops that the Governors
name was used in connection with the
Rose bill entirely without his knowledge
or consent, and that It grossly misrepre-
sented the Governors position.
As matter of fact, it can be said truth.
fully that the Governor did not commit
himself for or against the bill at the time
he learned Of it, and that he has not
confded to any person whether he would
approve OF or vote it if passed.
In other words the persons who have
been saying that the Governor is in favor
OF the Rose bill have done so unwarrant-
edly and with no basis for their statement
and it is known that Governor Lea him
self is indignantthat such methods should
have been resorted to. The Governors
name was being used in this manner did
not become known to him until Monday
evening after newspaper had printed
story about it, so quietly had the schemers
masked their movements.
This is not the first time the statement
has been made by advocates of legislation
here that "the Governor is back of the
bill" and the Governor himself has stated
emphatically to inquirer as to his attitude
on pending legislation that he will deter
mine after bills come to him in the reg
ular manner, whether or not he deems
them proper to become laws, or whether
they should be voted.

ABOUT HORSES AND MULES
Advent OF Automobiles Has Not De-
creased The Number

Statistics complied by the Department
OF Agriculture at Washington seem to in
dictate that the advent of the horseless
age, which was supposed to be close at
hand when automobiles first came into
use few years ago, is receding further
into the future with each succeeding year.
The official census OF farm animals, just
completed, shows that the number of
horses and mules in the United States is
now 23, ,564 900, valued at 81, 274 ;642, 600.
BY comparison with the records of
seven years ago, when motor vehicles, it
may be said, started in to put the horse
out OF business, the census of 1906 is not
exactly discouraging to breeders and
dealers. In 1900 there were Is, 538, 900
horses and 2,086, 600 mules in the country
waiting to be replaced by automobiles,
and each annual census since then has
shown an increase in their number and
value. There are now 19, 747 900 horses
and 3,8l7 900 mules, or about 8, ,000, 600
nearly so per cents.-more than there
we're seven years ago. To give full force to
these figures it must be stated further
that in seven years preceding 1900 there
was falling off of 2,914, 900 in the num-
Der of horses and mules in the United
States, caused, no doubt, by the panic of
1893 coming on the heels of an unexam-
pied boom in horse breeding.
Remarkable as the rate OF increase in
the horse stock has been for the full |
period of seven years since 1900, it is
thrown in the shade by the records of
the last two years. White the increase
for four years preceding January l,
1905, was 337, 900, the gain since 1905 |
has reached the astonishing total of g.,
6l8.000 head. In other words, the
United States has, according to Depart
ment statistics, increased more than 10 !
times as much in the last two years as in
the preceding four years.

MANY WILL ASK PENSIONS


It is expected that number of Della
ware veterans of the Civil War will apply
for pensions or for an increase in their
present pensions under the law which
was recently passed by Congress.
1t is not known how many Delaware
men are affected by the bill but the num-
Der is considerable. Some who served
but short time but contracted ailments
in the service will now be upon the same
footing as others who have been receiving
pensions for no more serious results. The
members of the veterans organizations
in Wilmington are well pleased that the
measure has been passed and will enable
deserving soldiers to secure recognition.

Mr.. Burton E. Morris, aged 80
years, died in this city last Sum-

brave struggle with the terrible
white plague, which yearly
sweeps countless thousands to an
untimely grave.
Mr.. Morris came to Deming
last January accompanied by his
wife and two little boys, from
Las Cruces. He first came to the
west four years ago from In
diana, which was his native
state. His condition, however,
was too serious on reaching here
to hold out any hope of recov-
cry, and his decline was rapid.
Deceased was a member of the
Presbyterian Church and a man
of splendid attributes of charac-
ter and standing as a citizen.
The sorrowing wife and two little
boys have the heartfelt sympathy
of the community in their great
grief and loss.
The funeral was conducted at
the residence by Rev. Sickles
Monday afternoon at 2:30. The
remains were laid to rest in the
cemetery here.
