WANT MORE LIGHTS
ON MARKET STREET
Merchants Hoping the Street
And Sewer Board Can Pro-
vide Additional Illumination

Many merchants along Market street
are wondering when the Street and
Sewer directors intend to take up the
question of providing increased light
ing facilities along Market street. The
matter was agitated sometime ago. and
many merchants are of the opinion that
the city should do something in the way
of making Market street a blaze Of
light at night. 1t Is argued that this
not only would create a most favor
able impression upon visitors and upon
passengers on trains passing through
Wilmington over the p, b. and W. Rail
road, but that IL also would attract
more persons to the center of the city
and bring an increase Of trade 70 mer-
chants.
One plan that has been advocated
Is to place additional electric lights at
Intervals along Market street instead
OF having the lights merely at the in
{ tersection of streets as at present.
Another plan suggested is that OF
stringing incandescent lights across
Market street at intervals from Front
to Tenth street
Something should be done in the
way OF increasing the illumination OF
Market street" said well-known mer-
chant today. "Other cities make their
principal business street OF streets a
blaze OF light and Wilmington should
do likewise. Did you ever notice the
lattention given 60 Atlantic avenue in
Atlantic City in the way OF flooding
that avenue with light? trust tn,
Street and Sewer directors will take
up this question and try 10 give Mar
ket street more light Take the store
below Market street below Fourth 70
instance. Some Of our largest store
are there and they DO a big business
lyet the street is not illuminated any
where like Sc should be l would like {
see many more lights placed alon

CLEVELAND. Ohio. Nov. 4-Notwith-
standing the emphatic statement that he
would be a candidate Tor reelection to a
NTH term as mayor two years hence. poli-
ticians are busy to-day with rumors con-
corning the plans Of Mayor Tom L. john
son after his tenure of Office oxphes jan
uary l.
His defeat last Tuesday by Herman c.
Bachr was signalized by tho circulation
Of a persistent report that the mayor had
established residence IN New York city
and would take possession Immediately af-
ter his return 10 private life.
The mayors statement however. would
seem to set this report al nalght. sinc-
he has positively declared his intention .
/ become a candidate again when Baeh's 8
term shall have expired. He says he VIII
not change any Of HIS original traction
plans in the meantime. but wlll maintain
discrete silence during the Republican
administration.
Although more cheerful than any other
Of the defeated candidates. Mayor Tom
has refrained from discussing the reasons
for his defeat.

said Johnson smiling grimly. "but I an
never sorry"
Generally It is believed Mayor johnson
was up against the condition Of pub
lie sentiment when. for no particular rea
son. the people want a change.
on the other hand, old time politicians
declare it was simply a case OF the mar
having outlived his political popula-it,
because the people are tired--not OF IN,
