This seven foot sheet thing is vi

be strong in the Industrial centers,

sections.

Dover Baptists' Statement.

Editor THE EVENING JOURNAL.
In justice to the First Baptist Church
of Dover we wish to correct the state
ment in the Sunday Star" that "after
DR.. Lightbourne was deposed as pas
tor of Wesley Church the Baptist
Church invited him to become their
pastor and would have enlarged their
church to accommodate the Wesley
congregation, but DR.. Lightbourne re-
fused"
This mistake probably arose from
the fact that the pastor, Rev. S. j.
Cleeland asked Dr. Lightbourne to fill
his pulpit on a Sunday when he ex-
pected to be absent, which DR.. Light
bourne consented TO do should IL be
necessary. While the church mas every
sympathy for DIR. Lightbourne in his
trouble It win be readily understood
that as a Baptist church it could not
call to its pulpit as pastor a minister
OF any other than the Baptist faith
and that only by a vote of the church.
There was never any thought of en-
larging the church edifice. To relieve
the church Of such a seeming incon-
sistency we feel it a duty to make this
correction.

HALE AND THE PAPER MEN.

reduction Of the duty on wood pulp there
is fear that it will be restored by the Senate The
leaders of the Senate coterie, like Mr. Hale, OF
Maine, stand close to the small number of paper
makers who want this duty retained The pub
fishers of newspapers and others who use the
cheaper grade Of paper have been endeavoring TO
get the duty lowered and they have been success
full so far as the House is concerned
Our country cannot supply the wood pulp
necessary to meet the demand for print paper.
An increasing proportion OF imported pulp has
been used and the manufacturers take this an
excuse for boosting the prices of paper With
the increasing cost OF paper the curtailment of
the number and size of newspapers and maga-
zines will have to be seriously considered. And
vet it is proposed by few in the Senate to con-
tinue the high tariff to protect an industry which
cannot supply the demand

itates, when occasion requires to make his opin-
ons upon public questions known. He has the
happy faculty of putting his views into few
well chosen words, while other men might take
a column or so TO explain their own ideas. The
Delaware Senator's we are confident, will look
after the interests OF Delaware as far as possible
in the tariff bill
Colonel DUPONT takes a broad-minded view of
the tariff. He has stated the true doctrine OF
protection. lie has shown that he considers the
interests of the farmers, the manufacturers and
workingmen. Naturally Colonel dupont having
devoted practically all his life to farming should
have in mind the farming interests The inter-
ests of agriculture always appeal to him. Hav-
ing been also concerned in business affairs, the
Senator is in close touch with the wishes of the
business community. In fact, the Senator is en-
abled to take, as we have remarked, a broad
minded view of the tariff question such would
be expected of a man with a wide experience.
We do not fancy that Colonel DUPONT will sac
rihce any of his convictions in considering the
tariff matter. He il not man to sacrifice con-
vctions for expendiency as his record well at
tests. But, happily, his convictions on the tariff
question agree with the convictions of the Re-
publican party Of this State and we may add Of
a large proportion Of the Democrats as well.

Marshall Tindall, Of the firm Of Tindall

cord avenue north of Washington

Mr. Sparks informed Mr.. Tindall that
