THEY ARE WITH us.

w E NOTICE in the lower county papers
w that various men are being mentioned"
for diverse nominations, all of which is encourag-
ing And we notice that some of these men are
what have been termed in recent years by news
paper writers-that is since passes have been
sent to glory-"railroad men," 1t is probable
that railroad men" will be on the tickets this
year. That is one crop, railroad men in poll
tics" that never fails.
The railroad company may give a cross-eyed
estimate on the fruit crop; the storms may come
and destroy the fruits; the shops may be idle; ;
Dr. Shortlidge's efforts for chdrens Fairgrounds
may relax for awhle-and we don't blame him
former Senator Alice may be in political doze,
but we don't believe it Major Flagler may come
and go, but nothing ever happens to the railroad
men in politics" They are a sure crop in Della
ware No blight ever strikes them. When the
tickets turn up they are there with hundred
feet.
They are here in Wilmington, sometimes as
numerous as mosquitoes. Beat the old gumbush
and one of them would drop out. Walk along
Tadpoe Neck and one of them would be found
thinning corn Visit Burrsville, on the Maryland
line in Kent and you would find them get
ting other folks to pick their chestnuts out OF the
fire. At Socllum they are selling socks At Be
thesda several would be found drinking the best
water in the pool At Hollandville they could be
discovered "cussing" John p Holland; at Fork
Log thev would be whetting their political knives
city to Pepperbox, Sussex county, and you will
see them bustng, big and little, great and small
in every place, and their name appears to be le-
gion.
When the citizenship of the State, the thou
sands of men of Delaware, are sfted through the
political filter into the legislative halls of the
Dover capital or into other places, you will hnd
the railroad and other corporation men have
passed through the filter No mechanical hltra-
ton, no sand filtration, no sedimentation depos-
its; aye, a dozen DIR. Robins, if they tried to
eliminate the railroad and public service corpora
ton bacteria from our bodw polite, would be
baffed. If the Hon. Alfred O. Crozier had a
thousand mouths and they we're all working at
once. the railroad men" would simply hide in
the cyclone cellar and escape damage.
The railroad men, are with us, and we believe
they are going to stay with us-love to them. If
they were all put into fleet of airships and
started on a voyage to heaven at once the State,
relieved of so many weighty citizens, would rise
miraculousy from its position on earth and try
TO follow them as ballast for the airships.

The summer Roarder.

Chicago Evening Post.
The Boston Transcript raises the im-
portant question whether or not the
country can find some substitute for
the term Summer boarder." Taking
the term collectively custom already
has improved It in this Deighborhood.
The Summer COLONY is the not un-
pleasing phrase common at our more
pretentious resorts. while "the city peo-
pie" serves in simpler places in iii
nois, Wisconsin and Michigan. Yet,
using these appallations in the singlar
we get summer colonist" or possibly
"city feller." which win not do at all.
The best individual labels that actual
use hereabout has sanctioned are "cot-
tager," camper or Summer visitor .
Although these terms may not have
universal acceptance. vet the fact re-
mains that the Summer boarder" is
largely unknown here outside the
pages of the comic weoklies. This
change is probably due to the fact
that he no longer boards. If he does
board. instead of establishing his own
separate household. he deserves to be
called almost anything that the Tran
script or the Now England dialect can
think Of

STATE CONVENTION.
c TATE CHAIRMAN DUPONT a

G TATE CHAIRMAN DUPONT again as
- serts the position Of the Republican organi-
zation as regards the naming of candidates for the
State ticket 1t would be, perhaps, useless to say
that the State chairman and the organization
have not filled every important position, from
coroner OF a county to the nomination for COVER
nor, because those who have pictured a machine
that is grinding out nominations before the con-
vention meets, will continue their imaginative
painting from now until the end.
AS Mr.. dupont says in a letter which we print
ed Monday, any differences in the party will be
settled at the primaries, which means that all as
pirants for places the ticket may show their
strength and the people may express their pref
erence.
In this connection it may be well to say that
the nomination for encouragement has been
causing some discussion Kent county is assert
ing claim for that nomination, but it by no
means follows that the nomination will be al
loted to Kent county. The active asprant for
the nomination is Mr.. Frank III. Davis, a we'll
known attorney Of Dover Mr. Davis has been
the target for attacks by Democrats and other
opponents, and his qualifications have been called
into question. We presume that the voters of
Kent county will pass upon Mr.. Davis Should
he 90 to the convention as the choice of his
county he would be in position to make fight
for the place. but this would not assure his sue
cess
date for Encouragement should concern the
members of the bar of the State as we'll as the
voters at large. The people in this matter natu-
rally look for expressions of opinion from the
lawyers, whose favoring of this that candidate
would have weight with the convention.
At one time it was supposed that Robert G..
Houston, OF Georgetown might permit the use of
his name for this nomination. but he has with

ings, who has made a creditable record as the
New Castle county assistant to Mr.. Richards.
There has been, so far as we know, valid criti-
csm of Mr.. Hastings as a proposed nominee. We
have heard a criticism in substance that he was
too faithful" in the performance of his duties /;
that he prosecuted the bribery cases in Kent
county, and did what he could do to secure con-
victions. This criticism is commonly heard in
whispers. 1t should lac confined to back alleys
and to the political bats and owls. If there is
anything that should commend Mr. Hastings for
attorneygenera it is the fact that he has prose-
cuted all forms of law violation without fear or
favor.

The plant of the Harlan and Hollingsworth
Company is owned by strong men, by men sup

which it is best suited
Mr.. Schwab has been quoted as saving that
Wilmington is one of the best located cities in
the country for manufacturing purposes. and the

Of the Pennsylvania Railroad system.
The estimated value Of the produce
shipped last month from the six low er
counties of New Jersev was 81 IT'S, ,0OO
an increase over July 1907 of S746, 800. II
took two thousand nine hundred aud
forty-five freight cars - transport this
produce to the various rlarkets-near-
in one train.
To enable the farmer to market MS
products quickly and secure the mosl
advantageous prices, special sched.
ules were established, and trains known
as preference freights' were run max
ing time only eoualled by passenger
trains. The market has also beer
greatly widened as a result of the de-
velopment campaign undertaken by the
Pennsylvania Railroad in behalf of the
commercial and agricultural interests
of southern New Jersey During the

buyers all over the country were sup
