REpoRT GA NEW INpusTRY.

TIE report that plant to build pressed steel
\ ~ cars proposes to locate in this city under
certain conditions will give our Board of Trade
a chance to. show its mettle. According to the
statement the mills would employ three thousand
workmen and the factories would be valued at
Ss,oooooo. That this would mean big thing
for Wilmington goes without saying, The only
condition is that S25oooo in stock be subscribed
by local people. If the proposed industry is sound
there should be no difficulty in securing the sum
demanded a condition. We have tossed away
more than that amount in year on various out
side schemes, and with good, legitimate enter
prise like the proposed steel plant looks to be,
the pethorc pocketbooks Of Wilmington should
loosen up.
And it might be WELL in this conPsction, for
the Board of Trade to find ont the status of the
Otto Gas Engine Works and see if i; is not pos
sible to remove the obstacles that have pre-
vented this industry from locating in Wilmington.
With two si,ch mills in Delaware, Wilmington
would be on the industrial jump

Tribute to Judge Gray.

a AAAfAAANlIAAlN AE0ns
Judge Gray would be an admirable
candidate-probably too good candi-
date for his party He has great per-
sonal and public merits which would
commend him TO all sensible men who
could tolerate the risks of Democratic
success even under the best auspices
He is sane. conservative and expert
onced. with broad intellectual grasp
and high moral plane of thought and
action. He was trained I'm the old
school of Democratic politics and held
It's theories of government. and he has
never wandered after the strange gods
Of modern. fantastic and ephemeral
dogma. In the Senate he was patri-
otic and national in his sympathies.
and on the bench he mas been emin-
entity judicial In his temper and judg-
ment. His occasional service outside
of the fixed fields. like mis- participation
In the Paris Peace Commission and in
the arbitration of the coal strike, has
been distinguished by fine poise and
superb practical sense.
II would be eNhilarating to see the
standard of the Democratic party
placed in the hands of a man li-e
Judge Gray. Such an act would lift
up the whole plane Of politics. But il
win not Re done. The Senators who
have sense enough 20 see its wisdom
wiz make no contest for it. They viii
allow themselves TO be swept along by
the Needless current for BRYAN with all
his wild vagaries. All of the sensible
leaders of the Democratic party and
probably much more than half its rank

policies II nut to them individually;
but. for want of any other figure that
looms up. he has the hold on the party
sentiment and imagination, and they
will trail on behind IL is an ignoble
and pitiful spectacle

The report of the Artisans Savings Bank pub
lished recently in THE JOURNAL. shows the
high standard of the investments made by that
institution, which has SO long held the confidence
of the people Our savings banks have always
been well managed, paying a higher rate Of inter-
est TO their depositors than do similar institutions
in other cities. The Artisans Savings Bank
comes close TO the hearts and homes of thousands
Of self-respecting persons and thrifty wage earn

Arhlirate Az nisnnte-


Editor The Evening Journal.
As a business man. 1 am very sorry
TO see so many of the carpenters leav-
ing the city, there being nearly $50
men that until a few Gays ago were
dealing with the merchants of this city
but who are now spending their earn
ings in other cities
IL appears that both sides, the
master builders and the journeymen.
are somewhat hoadstrong at a time
when the best of judgment should he
exercised. 1 would suggest that the
matter be placed before an arbitra-
tor, say for instance man like Al
fred o. Crozier, or Judge Gray. After
calm discussion conclusions might be
reached that would bring happiness in
many homes, and a blessing to our
city.
Already the plasterers and lathers
are tied up, and in a few days the
others Of the building trades will be
out Of employment, and hard times
VIII be upon us, and all on account Of
q few hot heads among the employers
and employees.

The carpenters who are on a strike are up and
doing. They do not propose to remain idle
While the wage scale is being considered, these
workmen are husting around the country get
ting jobs wherever they can do so, and it is to
their credit that they have at once plunged into
work where they secure it at their union scale
Thus they busy themselves in contributing to the
wealth of the country. Many of the men have
families dependent upon them for support, and it
is highly creditablc that they have at once begun
work. II is unfortunate all around that they are
not employed in Wilmington.

REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Democrats Resort to Old Tactics.

Whenever the repudiaed and dispossessed Democratic
Party has no issue to raise or anything to CONNIE nd ITSELF it
resorts to the old cry of Republican Ring.
For years it has been a Democratic practice to cry
Courthouse Ring because the Democrats have argu-
meuts, to advance why Republican business
methods should be aside and Democratic ugglery and
extravagance should be again placed in power
The Democrats cried Courthouse Ring five years,
three year ago, and the voters responded by
elecing Republicans to office.
The Democratic last resort of Courthouse Ring does
not hide the facts that:
The Republican Council has paid off Democratic debt
of $4,000 without increasing the tax rate cent
That the Republican Legislature enacted solely in the
interests of the people.
That the present Democratic Water Commission has
been and is oxavagant Water Board and that the
Water Board has been lowered the partisan basis of
viding jobs for big list of Democratic workers

 The farewell dinners given in his honor proved a great success, the guests including the leading repre- sentatives of official and educational circles. Prof. Burgess was toasted and cheered heartily. Minister of k l. ucation Von Studt declared that the presence in Germany of such Amerl-
 can representatives of the serious sciences not only contributes to the:r mutual friendship, but is source of honor to both countries. Preparations for other entertainments of Prof. Bur gess show that the professor has talk en deep hold on the German heart.

MabeI's Changing Moods.

When Mabel plays the typewriter, The click portends her current mood i; It tells us how her thoughts prevail And if she's feeling bad or good. When peace is in her heart and brain, The sound is soft as summer rain That taps upon the window pane, When Mabel plays the typewriter. When Mabel pounds the typewriter, A cloud arises in the sky. The dove of peace outspreads its wings To other regions quick to fly. At tossing of her graceful head, Bright with it's crown of golden red, You feel a growing sense of dread. When Mabel pounds the typewriter. When Mabel bangs the typewriter, Look out-the cruel wars begun! You hear the roll of musketry.
 You hear the deadly gatling gun. Don't say her yes. don't say her nay, Don't dare a single word to say. B,t softly. swiftly steal away
 When Mabel whacks the typewriter.
