TREE WITH Il MISSION.
Gircs Shelter to Seedlings Which

Probably there are few inhabitants of New
England who are not more or less Intimately
acquainted with the gray birch, one Of the COM
mOnest and most widely known trees Of the
Notheast states, and at the same time one OF
the least understood and least popular. n Is
distnctively a tree Of the open. and such
is so conspicuous that one cannot help noticing
it. At first thought this may appear strange
and rather puzzling The explanation is simply
that the birch is crowded out of the forest n
is peculiarly intolerant Of any shade, and WIN
not grow under other trees, and in addition to
this it is a small tree
Yet, in spite Of the fact that it IS widely
known it has few friends or ardent supporters.
This is not because it is without good qualities.
but rather because these are not generally rec
ognized. On the other hand, it's failings are
quite apparent. It is not particularly beauu-
full or ornamental tree 1t is much too small
and too thin-crowned ever to be of any use as .
shade tree It is frequently injured by snow and
ice storms.
It cannot be classed as one Of our important
timber trees. The gray birch is at present used
practically only for fuel. The wood is Of poor
quality and hard to work, so that it would be OF
little value for lumber. even if it attained suf-
fcient size
The only vice that can be charged to the
gray birch is that it sometimes usurps good
forest soils to the exclusion of better species.
This is indeed, occasionally true, but more
often this apparent vice is really its one re-
deeming virtue 1t has remarkable capacity
for fourishlng on the poorest, most barren soils,
which would seem to be unsuited for any tree
growth Its light winged seeds are carried to
great distances by the wind and gerntn2te

young seedlings are burned back by ground
fires, but the birch refuses 10 be killed out in

Many persons went down or Saturday
afternoon to "Altona" to see the canal
which has been opened there AS some
Of our readers may be aware, the idea OF
emitting a channel there had been talked
of for some time, but had no practical shape
until Mr.. j. H. Boschulte took it IN hand
aud with commendable pluck and energy
set to work on the big job. The canal,
which, roughly speaking, may be about hall
a mile long, and several feet deep, opens on
the eastern side of Altoona land, through
which it runs until it meets the sen at the
Gregory, on the western side, the flow OF
water being continuous from end to end

Haulover. has been considered useful on
public sanitary grounds, that is, as providing
an outlet for any foul matter from the har.

the Forthcoming regulations about the
suppression of closets in town and conse-

personal expense, is yet incomplete, but the

lowed him because he was named at Denver as
the regular candidate Of the party.
In this campaign no State ticket is running in
Maryland, and therefore the Maryland Demo-
Gratis have not the same incentive TO work for
large vote that the Democrats OF Delaware have.
Here the Democrats are trying to elect their
State ticket, but they are not strong on Bryan.
They would let Bryan 60 by default if they
could thereby elect a State ticket composed Of
candidates who have never been known as Bryan
men. The concern of the Delaware Democrats
is to elect their State ticket and to place DR..
Paynter, the candidate of the reactionary element
of the party, in the - ernatorial chair so that
the Democrats can save for their party the ap-
pointment Of the new judges
However, in Delaware as in Maryland, the
Democrats are heading for defeat.
If Maryland is placed safely in the Taft col
umn, how much more surely should Delaware be
put in the Republican ranks? The Republican
majorihes in Delaware have been much larger in
proportion to the voting strength than Republi-
majorities have been in Maryland even when
that party was in complete ascendeney in our
sister State.

REPUBLICANS HAD
MEETING AT DELMAR

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
DELMAR. Del. Oct. 29-The largest
attended meeting ever held here by ths
Republicans was held in the Lyric Hail
on Tuesday evening. The hall was
more than filled and some failed to get
inside.
The speakers for the evening were
Sudler Richards. deputy attorney gen
eral of Sussex county. and Sylvester
D. Townsend. Wilmington's city solic-
itor. Other speakers We're expected here
but on account Of other meetings they
were unable to be present
This is the first meeting that has
been held here during the campaign,
in fact the first one in many years, and
the Republicans deserve great credit n
having such a meeting. In the crowd
were many Democrats In the audience
was D. Q. Moore. nominee for stare
treasurer. and there was some COM
ment because he was not invited to the
platform TO make a speech.

REPUBLICAN COUNTY TICKET.

ONE thing to do in this county is to elect the
- entire Republican county ticket. New
Castle county residents without regard to party
can we'll remember the days of Democratic adj
ministration, when the Court House officers were
appointed by the governor, and when they re-
ceved fees and emoluments the amount of which
no one knows or ever did know, except the hold
ers OF the offices themselves
The Republican administration of affairs of the
county has been highly creditable There is not
the shadow of reason why every Republican,
and in fact all good citizens should not rally TO
the support of the Republican county ticket 1t
deserves success if past records count for any
thing, and if the high standard of the nominations
is an inducement fcr the voters who desire to see
the county managed in the interests of the tax
payers.
The argument that the new arrangement of
paying county officers salaries is more expensive
than the old fee method is absurd, so absurd that
the mere mention OF it is sufficient to condemn
such statements.

Opinion
Tariff and the Prices.
Exchange.

Exchange.
1t is one Of the pet assertions of the
Democrats that the tariff laws are re-
sponsible for the high prices Of all
products Of the mills and soil, or any
thing on which labor is bestowed
Coal is on the free list and fuel was
never at such high figures and not
within the memory of Americans. ex-
cept in times OF miners strikes has it
cost so much to keep houses warm in
winter.
II free trade reduces the price Of
things, then why does Il not bring
| down the flgures on coal?
We have a reciprocal arrangement
with Germany by which hundreds of
thousands of dollars worth Of hosiery
made in the German mills come into
this country on low duties by means Of
the right Of the German shipper to
make his own inventory price upon
his goods. But stockings cost as much
as usual
There is no tariff upon vegetable
products that are classed under the
name OF truck" but garden sass"
keeps up TO the top notch.
II is true that It costs more to put
up house than it did a few years
ago, but the hours Of labor have been
reduced in almost all of the avenues Of
industry that supply materials for that
house, and the solutions of this extra
cost is found there more than in any
tariff
II is true that various goods made
a. America cost more than similar goods
made In England or Europe. but the
American artisans who make them get
much better wages than the men on
the other side Of the Atlantic and can
AFFORD to pay more and still be in on
the bargain.
And after all. OF what value would

yet earned so much less than is paid
now?
We did get cheap things in the VIII
son Bill regime. but they were chesp
in texture, while labor had TO sell its
skin at appealing wages in order to
get an opportunity to make these
goods.
