THE JOURNAL FOLKS"

IT HE JOURNAL has received many congratu-
\ lations upon its twenty-hrst anniversary
yesterday and none were more pleasing or more
appreciated than the expressions of our adver-
tsers, those who spend large sums of money with
the paper, and who are in constant everyday
touch with it.
And it should be remembered that in all the
efforts of THE JOURNAL every empoye of the
paper is deserving Of the highest credit THE
JOURNAL has staff of which IL is Justly proud
from the office boy to the heads of departments
They all work willingly and to the best of their
ability for the success of THE JOURNAL. In
fact, the force Of JOURNAL people is like one
large family.
The publication Of such a paper as that Of
yesterday entailed a vast amount of work that
is not fully realized by the casual reader All this
labor was performed by THE JOURNALS reg
ular force without outside aid, and we doubt Is
any similar force of newspaper employees could
have done better than did THE JOURNALS
staff. Everything yesterday worked without the
slightest difficulty and the management OF the
paper most heartily appreciates the loyalty and
faithfulness Of JOURNAL folks

NEW YORK AND INCOME TAX.

G ENATOR DEPEW. of New York, who
~ emerged from darkness into light for
few hours in the Senate the other day, argued
against the income tax. Under it, he declared,
New York State would pay thirty-three per cent
OF the burdens of taxation. New York, he
pointed out, has one-seventh of the property Of
the country and one-twelfth Of the population.
The Senator did not explain how the Empire
State would be forced to pay thirty-three per
cent of the taxation, although it has not that
amount of property.
1t would be possible, however, under the law
for New York to pay more than her share in an
income tax if we judge by the population and
wealth. New York has many huge fortunes,
much concentrated wealth which would be sub
ject to the tax. In the other parts of the coun-
try the wealth IS not so much centralized and
therefore not so liable to income tax.
New York, however, will bitterly oppose the
income tax Under the present scheme of taxa
ton New Workers believe that they are not pay
ing their share of taxation; they are pushing tax
es upon other people and that is what they de-
sire TO do. AS the income tax is designed to be
levied upon great fortunes, New York would
have to give up vast sums. Under such a tax
proportional shares of states or population, COM
parsons with various parts of the country would
not be considered. But New Workers should not
think themselves unuclSy if they had to pay an
income tax. Many man who at present has
nothing would gladly pay an income tax if hnan-
cial favor smiled at him.
Although the question is being discussed in
the Senate an income tax for many reasons is
not likely to be imposed The tariff for the next
few years at least. will be expected TO provide
the revenue for the country. What the future
may bring forth is a question. If our national
expenses keep climbing slSyward. the subject OF
an income tax will really be vital

DELAWARE AND THE SENATORS.

q ENATOR duPONT voted for free iron ore
~ We have not seen mention II how Sena-
tor Richardson voted There is no question as
to how the Senators should vote on these sched-
ules if they are concerned in the advancement
of Delaware industries. They should keep the
welfare of the state in mind in all consideration
of the tariff schedules Free iron ore would
benefit our manufacturers. They also would like
to have free scrap iron and other free raw ma
terials so that our idle mills could be set hum
ming
What excuse can Delaware Senator offer
If he fails TO vote for the upbuilding of his state
If he quietly submits to any imposition that
Senator Aldrich and those who are looking after
the private interests of their friends may de-
eide upon?
Take Hale, of Maine, for example. He is said
to be nsistent in demanding that the tariff be
kept on wood pulp and wood because his neph-
ew is largely interested in these things and also
because the Maine lumber interests demand
the high tariff They demand il so that they can
squeeze up the price Of paper. Every paper user
in the State Of Delaware constituents OF Senator
dupont and Senator Richardson, must pay a
heavy fine for the benefit OF the friends of Mr.
Hale 1t is delightful to contribute thus to the
support OF trust, and 1t would be all the more
delightful to see the Senators representing our
state vote to impose the Hale demanded fine
upon us.
The tariff was never designed to upbuild
trusts or to be oppressive. So far as the Del
aware Senators are concerned by their votes they
should see that the duties arc not oppressive to
Delaware industries. They should, therefore,
not vote as Hale and Aldrich demand, but as
their constituents in Delaware, the manufacture
ers and others of the state earnestly wish. Let
them look out for Delaware, stand up and be
counted as representing what is best tor Dela
ware and they will earn the gratitude OF theii
constituents.

Newark Ledger.
Some Of the towns on the Peninsula
are complaining OF disorderly conduct OF
q class on the streets. This is bad and
should not be allowed. Take this town for
instance; without boasting. it IS one Of
the most orderly towns IN the state of
Delaware. Our town is always orderly.
and news reports sent to the daily papers
verify this. There is never vulgar street
fight. neither does the town officer allow
any disorderly person on our streets. Some
few arrests are made but the cause is
trivial.
Newark to-day is a model town. It is
good to live here. Our people are all law
abiding. and as for disturbances such is
never thought Of nor looked for.
There Is an element here that win cause
trouble some of these days. Every town
Is afflicted with a class Of people that

people are suffering quietly the encroach-
ments OF this element. The people are not
looking for trouble. but when patience
