NO BALLOT REFORM LIKELY.

I looks as if there will br no reform Of the
ballot law at this session of the Lcgisla-
ture. We believe that but few people are
pleased with the present ballot law but no one
seems to be able to suggest law that would be
satisfactory TO all concerned. The members OF
the Legislature have divided on this question on
party lines and that means that nothing will be
done.
Mr.. Spruance expressed the sentiments Of
vored the abolition Of the Australian system but
he thinks that the Democratic measure might
be jumping from the frying pan into the fire.
Representative Ainscow is quoted as saying
that there is no honesty in politics and that
the secret ballot is farce. The present bal
lot system SO far as it concerns secrecy is a
farce, but are not surprised that the statement
about there being no honesty in politics was
challenged by two members of the Legislature.
1t ought TO have been challenged by other mem
bers of the Legislature. Mr.. Ainscow has had
much experience in politics. but we think he is
rather too cynical to honesty in politics
Why should there not be honesty in politics as
well as honesty in every other path OF life? Mr.
Brockson evidently took Mr.. Ainscow's remarks
a reflection upon men i'll politics, but this,
presume, is not exactly what Mr.. Ainscow meant
We should be loath TO believe that most poll
ticians arc not honest men. We believe with Mr.
Brockson, that there are many honest men in
politics, and that the standard of political life is
being raised. In Delaware the standard of our
political life has certainly become higher

What is the matter with our Legis-
lature ? It is all right. But one
short deadlock. and there has been a
general goaheadiveness all over each
member since the beginning OF the
session. The members are regular in
attendance. even though, the sessions
are cut short by some Of the members
who have to be home before dark. Even
this but little time has been lost. Bill
after bill has been reported. some Of
them most worthless, have received at
tention due and consigned to the grave
yard of sucn. Bills of value have been
worked into shape and passed. The
bill TO resubmit another trial in New
Castle county between the dry and
"wet" kept some OF the Legislators
guessing, but under pledges there was
nothing else to do but to vote straight
to resubmit the question at the next
general election in 1910.

PROVIDING FOR REVENUE.

HE object of the legislation to be enacted
n at the special session of Congress will be
TO provide more revenue for the National Gov
ernment The expenses of the government have
increased enormously during the past few years.
The history of the receipts and expenditures of
the nation during the last decade however, shows
that in some years there has been a surplus while
in other years there has been deficit. Just now
in the deficit period Compared with the
resources and wealth of the country taxes of all
sorts have not been burdensome and but small
percentage of the national wealth goes for taxa
tion purposes. Probably less Of the wealth of
the United States is diverted into taxation than
in any other country of the world This fact,
however, is not an excuse for needless taxation,
or for extravaganza either in national or state
government, but it shows that there should be
no fear that the country is going to the bow
vows.
The making Of a new tariff law is difficult
task and some wrangling may be expected at the
extra session. The session, however, should not
be long because the Ways and Means Commit
tee has been at work on the tariff schedules for
some time and the new bill is pretty well in shape
Washington reports that there is certain to be
a two-cent stamp tax on bank checks. If the
new tariff bill being prepared by the House does
not contain such provision il is said that it will
be attached by the Senate. Il is said that pro-
vision will also be made for the importation every
year Of $4,000 tons OF Philippine sugar free of
duty and similar concessions will be made to the
tobacco interest of the islands
sThe revenue problem is still worrying the tariff
makers. The experts are figuring out what the
revenue will be from the schedules which have
been tentatively arranged but changes are prob
able when the revenue estimates are completed
The latest draft of the bill leaves coffee free,
but ii is yet possible that the committee may find
II necessary to put tax on this article in order
to increase the revenue. Such tax would be I'M
popular and the sentiment of the committee
seems 20 be that il should be avoided.
Business interests hope that the new tariff
will be speedily arranged With the tariff adop-
ted, the way will be clear for a genuine and thor
ough revival of business throughout the country

though the automobile has come into wide use
prices of horses remain high and there is al-

The same cannot be said OF New Castle coun-

the great interest in horses that has been dis

county the standard has improved and DIR. Nc
