HUGHES APPOINTMENTS.

HAT Governor Hughes, of New York, has
made good appointments for commission
ers under the public utilities law may be believed
because the organs of the public service
corporations that may be controlled by the COM
sioners are not pleased with the men named by
the governor. This is a hopeful sign. The new
commissioners have no records. New Workers
do not know what they will do. The politicians
who have presided Il kitchen cabinets OF former
governors, are unhsbpy because their advice was
ignored and their recommendations unheeded
With the machine politicians and the organs of
the public service corporations against the APP
pontments, it is safe to conjecture that the gov
ernor has made wise selections And the fact
that he has not appointed men of great promi-
nence as commissioners is also to be commended.
In some States and cities the same men appear
over and over again in office Governor Hughes
himself was snatched from comparative political
obscurity when he was nominated for governor
and he is wise enough to develop new men who
may prove to be of the same character as himself
Let the prominent men take a back seat for a
while at least.

REPUBLICAN RESPONSIBILITY.

KM It'll the beginning OF the new fiscal year
the Republicans enter upon most import
ant duties having control of City Council by
larger majority than they had in the last Council
The Republicans also have the management of
the Street and Sewer Department and of the
Water Board. They now control and are re-
sponsible for all branches Of the city government
well rs for the county government The peo-
pic have placed implicit confidence in them
There has been complaint over the manage
ment Of the city departments, and it is for the
Republicans to administer the affairs OF the de-
partments so that there may be little reason for
criticism.
With the management of the city and county
government the Republicans assume added re-
sponsbihtics. The people will expect those in
charge to perform faithfully their duties. Mr..
William w. Knox, the new water commissioner,
stands high in the community where he has lived
long, and he should make capable and pains
taking official
The new administration enters upon its duties
at a most important time in the city's history.
Vast sums OF money are at its disposal, TO be
expended in the interest OF the taxpayers. We
have every reason 10 believe that the new adj
ministration as whole will perform its duties
conscientiously. It is needless, perhaps, to add
that the officials will be held to strict account

Sayers has succeeded in getting most Of the
money due the city, but some of it has come
slowly. Perhaps it is better for the city to wait,
in many instances, than it is to take summary
collection proceedings. Mr. Sayers has used con-
siderable discretion in gathering the taxes, and
has forced but few settlements A general sys-
tenn of prompter collections would, perhaps, be
more desirable, although the collectors have al
ways treated delinquent taxpayers with consd-

That Mr. Sayers administration of the office is
satisfactory to his constituents, is shown by the

GATHERING AT OLD DRAWERS.

r R1ENDS Of historic Old Drawers gathered
\ under the beautiful trees OF that ancient
edihce yesterday and renewed friendships and
acquaintance, recalling the memories OF many Of
New Castle county's noted dead, buried in the
shadows of this typical country church, Old
Drawers is a landmark of the Prcsbyterans and
for nearly two centuries it was house OF wor-
ship for the farmers and good people in the mid
die part of the county. 1t is one of the historic
churches, of which there are many, in this county
The men and women who lie buried there were
among those who made tlut region OF the county
what it is to-day-one Of the prettiest and most
substantial parts OF Delaware, and their descend
ants, who assembled yesterday occupy the same
position to-day as did their ancestors, solid citi-
zens, active in all the walks OF life.
1t a happy thought of the late Lewis c.
Nandegrift when he suggested the idea Of form
ing an association for the preservation OF this
church and adjoining buryng ground. Too many
country churches, deserted by regular worship
ers because OF the mutations OF time and for var-
Gus reasons, are left to neglect Unkempt lots,
overgrown with weeds, dilapidated structures
eaten by decay often mark the rural churchyard.
Happily, Old Drawers is rescued from such a
fate, and the association is to be congratulated
for the good work that it has undertaken Old
Drawers will never lack friends.

WON'T REACH FARTHER
Central American War Will Be Linn
tied 10 Honduras and Nicaragua.

Washington, April 6.-The war be-
tween Honduras and Nicaragua, ac-
cording to Frederisco MeJia' the new
Salvadorean minister to the United
States, will likely be settled without
embroiling other Central American re-
publics. Senior Mejia said:
1T is highly to the interests of the
republics Of Salvador, Costa Rica and
Guatemala that peace should be
brought about as soon as possible in
order to avoid the chance that the
war may be extended into their re-
spective domains.
''To that end the representatives of
these countries here will do all they
can Meanwhile those countries have
found it expedient to mobilize troops
on their respective frontiers. When I
left home Salvador had about 1850
men on the border, though it would be
possible to increase that number to
$4,000.
Even though Salvador, Costa Rica
and Guatemala are not directly en-
gagged in the war. they necessarily suf-
fer as long as the war continues. Their
commerce is destroyed to a large ex-
tent. Business must be dormant for
the time being. Communication must
be interrupted. The people are thrown
into unrest.
1.-The conservative people of Cen
trail America are tired of these wars,
which have continued for half CEN
fury They realize that If all the money
that has been spent for slaughter and
the satisfaction of the selfish ambitions
of some individuals during that time
had been turned to the building of
good roads, schools. and other instru-
mentalities Of civilization, Central
America would probably comprise one
united, prosperous and happy nation
today. Those means of communica-
ton that have been established al
ready have brought the peoples of the
country into closer relations. but the
time has not yet come when 1t would
be possible to amalgamate them into
one confederacy, either by force or
because the nation would
again break as a result of the INSULT
Client means of putting down numerous
Instructions. But within ten years
the time may come when such a plan
would be entirely feasible
