HIGH TAXES IN ENGLAND.

NESPlTE the storm of disapproval caused in
~ England by the "Red Flag Budget which
has greatly increased taxes, the Liberal govern
ment intends to stand by the tax schedules and
go before the country on that issue. The Liber-
ais in their hearts may fear defeat in the cleo
ton at which the tax schedules will be passed
upon the voters, but they are keeping a stiff up
per lip. Their organs declare that the new bud
get is sound finance and good politics. The
landlords are hostile TO the Liberal government
and have been very bitter in their denunciation
of the new schedules.
The Liberals however, are depending for sup
port of the bill upon the millions of working
men, small traders, clerks. professional men and
the masses in general The Liberal argument
IS that the government has simply taxed un-
earned increments and has put the additional
burdens OF taxation upon those who are best able
to bear them.
Recently the new income taxes were adopted
together with the surtax on large fortunes. Then
came the new death duties, the succession duties
and the very heavy taxes upon automobiles. The
government has also voted reduction of the
sinking fund and the money will be used to es-
tablish exchanges for the unemployed working
people The government will follow this with
compulsory system of industrial insurance for
wage workers on the German plan. The en-
ployers, the employees and the State are to con
tribute to this insurance fund. Therefore, the
taxes OF England will likely go still higher as
all these reforms are very expensive. In addi-
tion England is carrying the burden of great
and growing navy.
The Conservatives call these measures bids
for the radical and labor vote, but the Liberals
describe them as steps towards social Justice
Although the Conservatives, as a matter of
party policy, are opposing the Liberals thew
have no serious objection to many Of the social

TO be faithful in their tariff attitude

DOVER STREET IMPROVEMENT.

Il He people Of Dover are becoming thorough
\ " interested in the proposed expenditure
OF a large sum of money for street improvement
purposes. This is well. 1t is big undertake
ing and one that should be consummated only
after careful thought and deliberation
Dover wants the best that can be had for the
money The more the matter is discussed the
better satisfied will the people be after they have
secured the new paving. There many argu-
ments that can be advanced in favor of differ
ent kinds of material used for paving. In this
city we have all sorts of paving showing that
the opinions Of the street department have diff
fered at different times. What, however, may
be suitable for a part of Wilmington may not
be suited to Dover
When the paving Improvements are made and
the State capital also gets the new state build
ing Dover, will have become a very pretty town
indeed. AS a place of residence it has always
been attractive and it will be more so with these
improvements Dover has fine streets, an es-
pecially good resident street and the improve
ments will add to the beauty and value of prop
erty. The only caution that may be needed IS
not to rush into the selection of kind of paw
