BERRY CROP IN SUSSEX.

HE figures we printed yesterday concerning
the shipment of berries from one town in
Sussex county in one day show what a remark
able resource in the cultivation Of fruit Delaware
possesses. Thousands of dollars are spent in the
harvesting of the fruit. Hundreds are employed
in picking the berries, crate factories are kept
busy in manufacturing the carriers work is fur
nshed the makers of ice, 'and the railroad COM
pany reaps reward in the transportation of the
fruit
The berry crop in Sussex county means the
distribution of thousands of dollars which find
their way into every channel of trade. And yet
the figures we gave were but days shipment
and from station only Think what this sin
gle crop must be worth to the entire county when
it is considered that thousands of crates of berries
are sent from other shipping points in Sussex as
we'll
The strawberry crop gives but an inkling of the
vast wealth producing qualities of Sussex county.
With abundant harvest of other fruit in sight
with good prospect for the grains, the farmers
of lower Delaware, despite the probable low
prices ought to garner large rewards for their
labors.
The bounty of nature this year should stimu-
late the work of man, the inancer and the manu-
facturer in rcviving business. Nature calls for
a revival, but it is the perversity of man that
holds back.

NEW KIND OF cAMPA1GN7

w no cannot recall in the years gone by dur
w ing the average political campaign, that
at the mass meetings the orators appealed to the
masses of voters for the adoption of this or that
set Of policies on the ground that such course
would be for the benefit OF the country at large
and for the benefit of the people generally?
At these meetings no reason given that
certain political proposals should be enacted be-
cause such proposals would be for the beneht OF
capitalists and manufacturers. 1t any law was
suggested that might, for example, benefit the
manufacturer the suggestion was always because
the masses, the working people, would be bene-
fted and the manufacturers would be helped
only indirectly.
That was the keynote of the campaigns OF not
so many years ago. And who cannot remember
the composition of the audiences that attended
these political meetings. Most of those present
were the men who worked in the mills and lac
tories or at the mechanical trades. They were
fondly described as the bone and sinew" of the
land. They were tie great American people"
Similarly in the country at the political meet
ings the attendance was largely made up of the
working farmers or the small land owners. These
men were not concerned particularly in the well
fare of the trusts in the welfare OF privilege or
of special interests.
But during the last year or So since the advent
of the doctrines of Roosevelt, there has not been
so much one-sided talk Privilege has made itself
felt The interests have not remained under
cover They have come forward, and whereas in
the past they lhve worked in the dark, they now
boldly work in the lime light They defy oppo-
sition and declare they are ready to battle for
supremacy, as witness the practical challenge OF
the representatives of the Manufacturers Asso-
citation during its recent meeting in New York
city.
This new feeling may change somewhat the
complexion of the coming campaign.
We wonder if il is keally proposed to make an
assault upon some of the things that exist among
the masses of this country who, as we have said,
comprised the vast majority of hearers at polit-
cal meetings in the past. For instance, there are
labor unions among the masses of the people. 1t
is true that thousands of workingmen are not in
the unions, and that thousands alienated from
the unions or are non-union, and it is also true
that other thousands OF work people, not mem
bers of the unions, in sympathy with the
unions
1t has been proposed in some quarters 10 make
political warfare then upon this large element of
the population. 1t is proposed to make poti-
cal campaign in which arguments in favor of spe-
cial interests and privileges are to be audaciously
advanced. We judge this from what we read
and from what hear and from what ekes out
where privilege holds high carnival.
If this plan of campaign is adopted the
paign will prove interesting in the extreme.
We think that those who are advocating and
urging it will know more after it is than they
know at present.

USE OF MONEY IN ELECTIONS.

CITIZENS of Connecticut have become weary
of vote buying and they propose to organ
ize club for furnishing those who use money IL
legally at the polls The fact that the lower house
of Congress has passed bill which requires the
publication of the expenses of national campaigns
will help along these local movements in various
States. OF the use of money illegally in elections
there has been considerable complaint in Con-
neeticut lately.
One of the worst features of this practice IS
that 1t prevents respectable and useful citizens
who may not be rich fro maspiring to political
honors. And az the same time it unjustly puts
the burden OF campaign expenses upon the
that office holders should contribute to the sup
port of their party in a voluntary manner what
they think they are able to contribute.
The movement against the use of money in
elections is becoming widespread and reform
IN the practice will be naturally expected
