 No one could help noticing the clean and healthy condition in which Main street appeared this morning. The town officials did not have anything to do with the cleaning, this wholesome job was done by nature. The heavy downpour which came yesterday aft ernoon, took everything in it's path and swept all the old rubbish com pletely before it. Cleanness of the streets in the city would, it is thought by many, keep the sick list below the point 1t has now reached.

Resnlutions I'D Linuor Men.

At a meeting Of the Retail Liquor
Dealers Association held about the first
OF October, the following preamble ana
resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, It Is generally admitted that
in all lines Of business the desire for
profits and Increase Of wealth has result
ed in the abuse OF privileges and the use
of opportunity for selfish gain rather than
TO protect and promote the common good.
thus making necessary the restraint and
correction of law, as evidenced IN the
statute to protect employees in dangerous
occupations, to conserve morality, and
health in the employment Of women, and
secure to childhood the privileges and
blessing OF life; to employers liability
laws, factory inspection and chili labor
laws; and believing that the greed ex-
cited by unrestrained competition is al
ways a menace and should be limited and
controlled therefore, be it
Resolved, That the representatives Of a
licensed liquor trade Of Delaware hereby
express their approval of the position
taken by the trade papers in favor of a
uniform excise law to be recommended for
adoption in all the States OF the Union.
Resolved, That we specially commend
a plan to- limit license in fixed ratio TO
population and make the license con-
tnuous as a contract between the licensee
and the State to be cancelled upon proof
Of violation Of the provisions contained
IN it without right Of reissue to the vio-
lator OF law.
Resolved, That reasonable limitations as
TO hours of business as well as to days
upon which business may be transacted
is desirable both for the holder of The
license and the community at large, and
we advise and welcome such restrictions
Resolved. That we condemn any methcd
or policy Of business that encourages ex-
cessive use OF intoxicants and urge upon
the trade to use discretion in exercising
the right Of sale. and approve in this re.
spect the most rigid enforcement Of law
Resolved, That as we hope for justice
and protection through the law, we our
selves must obey the laws, and that tn,
man who fails TO do this disregards hi
obligations TO the trade and society a
large.
Resolved, That when the necessity fol
increase for public revenue renders neces
sary the imposition Of a higher tax on ou
business. we will cheerfully yield to tn
demands Of the State as expressed in act
OF legislation.
Resolved That while we express ou
/ judgment in favor of the above resolu
tions and will support them. we deman'
from our fellow-citizens that protection
for our business and our property that &
the common and constitutional right o
all. and deplore the fact that in the nam
of virtue and religion an attempt is mad
to confiscate our properties and overrid
that guarantee OF equality before the laV
which is the very basis of stable govern
ment.
Resolved. That we appeal to the com
mon sense and common honesty of thos
we have long met in the association o
business and social life to exercise thi
right Of citizenship in matters related
our welfare as they would have us exer
else the same rights in relation to ther
