Young Fulk, in company With his
brother and William Feather, left Crel-
lin about six weeks ago for the north

tana, but later they went to Oregon,
where they were given employment on
the log drive down the Umpqua river
by 1lr. H. J. Freer, of the Kendall
Lumber Company, whose mill in the
northwest is managed by him. On the
way down the stream, which is a rapid
one, enc of the logs became unmanage-
able and young Fulk went out to it over
the floating timber, when he was seen
by his companions TO miss his footing
and sink, since which time nothing has
been seen Of his body, although more
than a hundred men have been engaged
in dragging the river in an effort to
locate it.

The RepubIioan Situation

Editor THE EVENING JOURNAL.
we notice in a recent issue of the Phila-
delphia Record an item of news which is
a surprise to many members Of the Re-
publican party in this State This infor-
nation sets forth that an understanding
has been reached. whereby harmony Of
all ideas and shades Of opinion among Re-
publicans is assured as to the choice Of
the party in Delaware, for candidate
for President, and naming Senator +. g.
Knox, of Pennsylvania as the man.
We yield to none in our admiration and
appreciation Of the abilities and services
Of the Junior Senator Of Pennsylvania,
and believe that he would be an accept
able candidate, and If elected to that high
office, would fill it with great satisfac
ton to the country.
Nor have we ought to say Of the stand
ing and ability to represent our State, Of
our eminent fellow citizens, whom our
kind friend has named as likely to COM
pose the delegation from this State to the
Republican National Convention, they are
in every way wen fitted for that duty.
We wish to call the attention Of all Re-
publicans, at this iuncture. that this is
AlhlS WHEN ~ ~ ouA paramount party anu
public duty to look we'll into the situation
that confronts US and not allow our
common interests jeopardized and imper-
illed by not giving them the attention
which we should, this IS a time when the
people must take a hand in the selec-
ton Of candidates from the highest to the
lowest.
In choosing a candidate for President.
first of ALL he must be the right kind ot
a man in every way, and second he must
be candidate that can be elected.
From our standpoint Of staunch and
stalwart Republicanism, it is extremely
important in this State that no mistake
shall be made in the campaign of this
year. in the shaping Of policies and the
selection OF candidates as local state
matters Of greatest Importance are in
volved.
Our concern at this time is to call on
our fellow Republicans Of all shades Of
opinion, in these party matters to think
and act for themselvess-to the end that
the best results may be obtained; each
to take his part in the preliminary work
that is now at hand, in shaping party
policy and action, so that we can stand
solidly together in both state and national
affairs, and so forward to the victory
that is assured, If we thus meet our plain
party and public responsibilities.
Yours,
Republican for Victory.

A MESSAGE TO
THE DISCOURAGED
Text--A Bruised Reed Shall He
Not Break.--Matt. 1920.
BY Rev. c. I'll Wyatt, D. D.

This is an echo Of what Isaiah fore
told concerning the gentleness of
Christ. Matthew quotes from this old
testament prophet. There is charm
ing simplicity about the figure. The
reed is frail and easily broken. Before
a mighty tempest it oftentimes sus-
tains an injury and lies broken upon
the ground. The bruised reed is the
discouraged soul, or it may be one who
has yielded to temptation and now lies
in the valley of humiliation
Man at his best is weak and it is
only by life Of watchfulness and
prayer that he can stand when some
fierce temptation sweeps across his
pathway. But if then there is in the
soul the feeling of genuine repentance
and longing for forgiveness, God is
willing to forgive and restore the soul
to His favor Peter denied his Lord
with oaths and curses, and this was a
grievous sin. But the circumstances
were trying. He had left his fishing
boat and nets, his all, to follow Christ,
and now the Master was under arrest
and the outlook was most discourag-
ing. Peter does not care TO lose his
life, but when the cock crowed Peter
remembered the words of Jesus, in
which he predicted the apostles denial,
and he went out and wept bitterly He
saw the enormity of his sin, and was
truly repentant. Jesus dealt gently
with the erring disciple. When the
angel announced the resurrection of
Christ to the women who visited the
tomb in the gray of the morning he
said to them: Go your way tell His
disciples and Peter that He goeth be-
fore you into Galilee, there shall ye see
Him as He said unto you"
Peter Is singled out lest he might
think that Christ no longer has any
interest in him. After His resurrec-
tion Christ dined with His disciples
on the shore Of the lake. In the con-
versation which He had with tas apos-
tate disciple there is no word Of up
braiding. True, Jesus asked him three
times the question: "Simon, son of
Jonas, lowest thou me?" Which may
have brought to mind his three-fold
denial, vet there is no harsh rebuke.
The bruised reed shall not be crushed.
THE sacrifices of God are a broken
spirit, a broken and a contrite heart.
10 God, Thou wilt not despise."
He healeth the broken heart and
bindeth up their wounds. The bruised
reed must be handled very carefully.
If there is any sense of sin, any yearn-
ing after God, however feeble and in
termittent, there is hope. Where there
is the faintest aspiration after holiness
Jesus will not quench it.
1t is the work of the Holy Spirit to
revive the dropping soul and to fan
the feeble spark into a consuming
flame. AS followers of the Christ let
us give to the discouraged and erring
a word Of sympathy and extend to
them helping hand.

able, and due credit given. At the present
time no such allowance is made The
newspaper suffers the loss.
A newspaper is everywhere looked
upon as the corrector of wrongs I'M
posed upon the public. individuals, in
many cases, seek the press when unjust
or fancied burdens are imposed upon
them, hoping by an aroused public senti-
ment to have conditions made more equit-
able. One of the first things a person 1oes
when he meets condition which he
thinks might be remedied by legislation
is to try to use the press to arouse public
sentiment, and so influence the lawmaK.
ers.
Therefore it would be natural to sup
pose that the newspapers would seek the
influence Of legislation to secure relief
from the exaeting conditions imposed
upon them at the present time by the
Paper Trust While conditions have been
talked over at press conventions little
publicity has been given to the situation
and only feeble attempts have been made
TO secure relief through legislation. In
stead, the newspapers have assumed the
burden, keeping their troubles to them
selves and practicing economies that they
might meet the burden imposed.

INCREASING RENTS.

TN MOST Pennsylvania cities similar to VIII
Il mington in size are complaints OF rapidly adj
vancinp rents not only Of dwellings, but OF busi-
ness houses chiefly on the main thoroughiares a
depression in finances is usually followed by a
lowering OF rents Evidently there is no fear OF
lasting depression in those cities or else the ordi-
nary course Of lower rents with depressed busi-
ness conditions is to be reversed. II this latter IS
TO be the rule it will resemble the situation that
newspapers have to meet. With depressed
business outlook, believed to be temporary, how
ever, the paper trust advances the prices OF its
products and the consumers, held by the grip OF
the trust are forced to stand the burden.
The causes of advancing rents in the Pennsyl-
vania cities, however are attributed to increased
taxes and water rents In many Of the Pennsyl-
vania cities taxes due to improvements and for
higher salaries OF officials, have been advanced.
Water rents in Scranton, Pa, for instance, where
the water system is controlled by private mo-
nopoly, have increased from 80 to 90 per cent.
AS in all cases the consumer, that is, the renter
of property is forced finally to pay this increased
tax.
Here in Wilmington there IS no valid reason
for advancing rents either for business houses or
for residences. Our taxes have not been increased
and no additional burdens have been placed on
property holders If rents Of Market street prop
critics are increased there is no sound reason APP
parent for the advance.

DELAWARE RAILROAD COMPANY.

AT HILE some railroads are victims Of "fren-
Wv zied fnanciers," while others complain
of the interference Of railroad commissions and
alleged adverse legislation, the Delaware Rail
road Company goes along in its even course and
the stockholders and directors are presented an
nually with most gratifying report Of its busi-
ness.
AT the yearly meeting on Thursday at Dover
the statement showed a net income Of nearly
$sso,ooo, being an increase of more than $4,000
compared with the previous year. Even after the
comfortable dividend Of eight per cent. is paid,
more than half the earnings are left for the sur
plus. But the greater part Of the surplus goes
into permanent betterments of the system, such
as improving the lines, building new stations and
completing the telegraph block system from Har
rington to Delmar. This nsures greater safety
in travel, although accidents are rare on the Della
ware railroad. Were it not for the failure of the
peach crop, the earnings Of the company would
have been larger from their freight receipts
The company is managed in a manner that
ought to prove satisfactory to its stockholders
If all railroads were conducted in the same way
we should hear Of fewer Of them being in hnan-
cial troubles.
