The considerable reductions in the
estimates of the Government for the
next fiscal year bear evidence of
Presidents Taft's determination to
reduce expenses of the Federal es-
tablishment. By his direction the
War Department has presented esti-
mates less by $40, 900, 600 than the
appropriations made by the last Con-
gress. And though many bureau
chiefs contended that the Interests
of the navy would require at least
$3.50, 900, 900 for the fiscal year 1911,
Secretary Meyer is expected to send
in estimates of less than S130, 000,
900 for the fiscal year which begins
the first of next July Congress ap-
propriated S138, 600, 900 for the navy.
This reduction in expenditure, the
President believes, can be accom-
plished without impairing the eff
cheney of any branch Of the service.
Neither will it necessitate abandon
ing the building program for the ma
Wy, as the estimates include provision
for two new battleships of the lar
gest type and number of torpedo
boats and other auxiliaries. Mr.
Taft has directed that the same pol
icy be carried out in other depart
ments. He is determined that, 81
far as lies in his power the Govern.
ment during his administration shall
live within its income.

Daniel o. Hastings

The youngest of the judges-elect
elevated to the Delaware bench, we
may most heartily commend to the
young men of Smyrna and to the
State at large as an example of what
may be accomplished by one willing
to pay the cost thereof. In his boy
hood nothing along educational lines
seemed better than the public schools
of Somerset county, Maryland, but
his evenings, Saturday and vacations
were made to yield him additional
opportunities for self-study instead of
frittering them away in the popular
sports of the day as is the wont of
many, and he was soon qualified to
perform the duties of a clerkship in
the Salisbury shops of the P. B. and
W. Railroad. Here, however, he re-
mained only short time when he ex-
perienced a burning desire TO enter
the legal profession, and in due time
registered as law student with Hon.
Herbert H. Richards of Wilmington,
Del. But now more than ever Mr..
Hastings experienced the need of
larger school advantages, but with
out means and without friends to help
and with a wife on his hands what
was he to do. She knew his longing
to enter the Columbian Law School at
Washington and soon had her plans

In 1901 he graduated and returned to
Wilmington and opene and office. In
1909 he was appointed deputy attorney
general by Robert L. Richads, the
incumbent of the Office. Here he soon
made successful record in his pro-
fession. In 1909 the new Governor
appointed him his Secretary of State,
and, although he only remained in
this Office three months and ten days,
in that time he had turned into the
State Treasury sum equal to g

would have had something better to

Now that the movement for a Wit

Federal Building and talk it up and
agitate it with the same vigor that
we have for permanent street work.
The Federal Building is bound to
come but it will materialize all the
sooner if we work for it. We
have seen what agitation has done
for Main street, now let us keep on
agitating. 1t will bring us a Fed
eral Building and more than this it

A FLOWER LEGEND.
How the Myosotis Came to Be Called
Forgetmenot.

TOW Ine MyOSOIlS Odme TO De Oalieo
Foreetmenot.
DIR. A. f. Thomson communicated tC
Mills History of Chivalry" the fol-
lowing romantic account Of the origin
of the popular name, fOrgetmenot, of
the favorite little flower myosotis:
1.-TWO lovers were lettering on the mar
gin Of lake on a fine summers even
ing when the maiden espied some of
the flowers Of myosotis growing on the
water close to the bank Of an island
at some distance from the shore. She
expressed a desire to possess them,
when the knight, in the true spirit of
chivalry, plunged into the water and,
swimming to the spot. cropped the
wished for plant, but his strength was
unable to fulfill the object of his
achievement and, feeling that he could
not regain the shore. although very
near It, he threw the flowers upon the
bank, and, casting a last affectiOnate
look upon his ladylOve, he cried For
get me notv and was buried in the
waters. AS the world insists upon a
reason, this story is as good as another,
but the worthy knight must have been
sadly out Of his element not to have
been able to return from a bank on
which his mistress could discern so
minute a blossom, unless, indeed, we
suppose him to have been clad in
armOr, which was a habiliment Ill
adapted for lover by land or water. "

The good people of Townsend have
risen up in their might and preven-
ted the TowSsend Hotel from obtain
ing a license. 1t has been seen
and proven that the conditions are
vastly better under no-license, and
it is encouraging to see the temper
ance sentiment growing. May it
reach all-over New Castle County
and at the next general election
when the opportunity is given tc
vote on the question, may the rum
traffic be overthrown throughout the
rural district.

Governor Pennewill is to be con-
graduated on his choice of a new
Judiciary for the State of Delaware.
Considering everything, he has named
a most excellent bench and one which
will reflect credit upon the State.
the Governor has shown himself a
Republican, uninfuenced by parti-
san motives, and with an eye single
only for the good of the State he
named from the material he had in
hand, the best he could get and they
are all able jurists of recognized
ability. Delaware can we'll feel
proud Of its new bench, with quick
ness of dispatch, Smyrna Town Coun-
Gil after acceding to the wishes of a
strong public sentiment, awarded the
contract Monday evening for paving
Main street with vitrifed block. Now
let the good work go on and see that
the contract is carried out to the let
ter. WiChin two months after actual
construction begins we are promised
a vitrifed block pavement from North
to Chestnut street. Let US hope that
Council will reconsider their rnotior
and have the blocks extended to Ham.

Smyrna is entertaining this week
the Twelfth Annual meeting of the
Delaware State Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs. Our clubwomen have
given cordial welcome to the Wis
iting delegates and the hospitality
accorded them is becoming the rep
utation of Smyrna. The women S
club movement is growing apace and
all through the State they are doing
good work and helping along a
great moral and educational uplift.
A woman's club is good thing for
any community. Let US hope that
the delegates have been having a
pleasant time among US and that
they will take away good impress
sions of Smyrna.

One of our progressive citizens ad-
vanced the suggestion that along with
good streets, Council should pass an
ordinance making it a misdemeanor
to sweep paper and filth in the gut
ter. Much of the waste paper and
rubbish accumulates from our stores
and places of business and street
cleaning would be made a much
easier task if a proper ordinance
were passed. We heartily commend
Il plan. Good streets will avail
little from picturesque point of view
unless they are kept clea and Coun-
ell should give every assistance to
make clean streets possible.
