THE HOSPITAL STIR.

WHE President Banning of City Council
suggested that the city should make an
appropriation to aid the two city hospitals,
doubtless he little thought that there would be
a disagreement among the doctors, although i
is not unusual for physicians to disagree. Hos
pitals of all kinds do so much humane work that
the natural assumption is that they should re-
ceive all the pecuniary aid possible The sug-
gested appropriation, however, has resulted in
the public expression of the dissatisfaction of a
ntsnber OF physicians with the management of
the Delaware Hospital.
There seems to be a question of the 'ins' and
the outs So far as we know the managers Of
the hospital have not asked City Council for
help, and they would probably reject an app-o-
priation with string tied to it If Council, for
example wanted to name a representative on
the Board OF Managers, wished in any way
to Interfere with the management, we have no
doubt that the donation would be declined with
thanks. We believe that Mayor Spruance would
veto any appropriation under the present cir
cumstances In fact he has given a rather
broad intmaton that he would not sanction
such disposal OF the funds Of the city. So it
is likely that nothing definite will come of the
tempest.
There seems to be some doubt as to the actual
regulations. President Johnston, of the Board
of Managers, has declared repeatedly that ply
sicians not connected with the staff of the hos
pital, under certain conditions permitted to
treat their patients il placed in the institution.
The protesting physicians DO not understand it
in that way The net result of the agitation so
far has been the airing Of the dissatisfaction of
some physicians and there the matter will
probably end.

their own authorities were unable TO do.

band of earnest women in Ohio has
determined to assault the President In
behalf of plan for the punishment of
wife deserters. whom they would have
shot by the national eOldiery.
Ridiculous as this scheme Is. IL be-
trays again the complete ascendancy of
the Federal Government and power in

spectacle persons. That the state and
town governments should be held re-
sponsble for the enforcement of their
own laws and ordinances is sugges-

walls more in farming than in manufacturing
The man who works for wages is ground be-
tween the two, for wages are slow in adjustment
to new conditions.
The one thing apparent in it all is the fact
that the fortunes of a few monopolists go on

After all, isn't it merely question of the dis

RAILROAD COMPANY AS FARMER.

Mo BETTER statement of the possibilities
of Delaware as a garden could be made
than that contained in the official announcement
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad Company that Il
is about to establish an experimental farm in
Sussex county Ii seems that it did not take
President AcCrea of the Company long TO
realize the possibilities OF the peninsula. After
a short trip through that region the President
took up the question, with the result that
decision reached to make the agricultural
experhSfiE in Delaware.
The announcement of the company calls
attention to one fact that we believe has not
been realized. 1t points out that according TO
the last census, there are almost two million Of
acres of uncultivated land on the peninsula
This is a high figure Doubtless considerable
of the land cannot be made fit FOR cultivation,
but President McCrea and his officials evidently
believe that much of this land can be reclaimed,
aud that i is capable of supporting large popu-
iatiof. II These figures are correct, the penn-
sula has been producing in grain and fruits not
nearly so much as II should produce.
The railroad statement mentions the nearness
of the agricultural districts of Delaware to the
city markets, an advantage that should be
attractive to the home seekers.
The farm purchased is "worked-out land
and the company proposes to show what can he
done with such land In other words. it will,
we believe demonstrate that what is regarded
as poor soil in Delaware can be so much i'm
proved by proper treatment that it will be very
valuable.
No wonder the agricultural and horticultural
societies have promised hearty cooperation with
the company in its plans. To have the Presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
directly interested in the development OF agri-
cultural Delaware, is something worth while.
We believe that the experimental farm is the
beginning Of what will prove to be an important
movement for the development Of the Delaware
peninsula

This is a strange objection. Many candidates
bring out large party vote and stimulate poll

that is the reason why objections are heard.
There is nothing wrong with the direct primary,

LARGE CROWDS Al TEND MEET|NG
At the Evening Hour Rev. Nevins
Spoke on the Subject of Spirit
uai Exercise.

AS Rev. Truett was unable to re-
turn for the morning and evening
services Sunday at the Baptist
church, Pastor Nevins preached to a
good congregation at both services.
Rev. Truett will be here at both
morning and evening services
throughout the week.
After the song and prayer service
Sunday evening, Mr.. UT favored the
audience with solo which was very
much appreciated.
The text of the sermon Sunday
evening was Acts 24:16, And here
in do | exercise myself, to have al
ways a conscience void of offence to-
ward God and toward men"
Rev. Nevins first spoke of how
Paul was acquainted with the eXer-
cises of that day--the gymnastics,
gladiatorial combats, etc, which no
doubt suggested to Paul the thought
of spiritual exercise in the text and
that Paul spoke a great truth when
The said that bodily exercise profit
eth little after all" Next he spoke
iuf ii kuuy -e--r r15r IL +uyI
how there az those who exercise
themselves alo&l the worst side OF
| their spiritual natures. Another kind
iof exercise mentioned in Gods word
was presented, the spiritual exercise
/ that may come through suffering
exercise that young people especially
need. The exercise Of the senses that
we may discern between good and
evil. Rev Nevins spoke at length of
the admonition of Paul to Timothy,
Exercising unto Goodness show
ing that it is important that we eX-
ercise ourselves unto God Rev. New
ms then spoke of the conscience and
that We are not to be satisfied with
just any kind of conscience. Paul
was not. He exercised himself that
he might have a conscience void of
offence toward God and toward
man. This conscience we have to-
ward God and man is identical That
is, if one has a conscience void of
offense toward man and vice versa.
From this the conclusion was drawn
that if man is not right in Gods
sight he cannot be right with his
fellowman. Then followed the ques-
ton, Have you a conscience void of
offence toward God and toward
mani" The sermon was closed with
to the test in this matter of saliva
ton. Services each morning at 10
O'Clock and each evening at I O'Clock.
