FILTER ROUTS
& DISEASE GERMS
Dr.. Robins Tests Show City
Water Supply to be Of
High Quality
BENEFICENT EFFECTS
OF THE NEW SYSTEM

All danger OF disease from City
water has been eliminated thanks to
the new final filter.
Such Is the report of DR.. Albert
Robin, city bacteriologist, who is now
making daily tests of the water in
order TO observe the benehcient affect
of the filter. Persons who were in
dread of the city water during the ty-
phoid fever scarce during September
aud October will appreciate his con-
clusions
Il am making tests every day now"
he said today "and those made so far
show the effect of the final filter to be
excellent. There has been a total elm
ination OF the impurities observed in
tile city water before the new filter
was placed in operation. There are
still a few bacteria from the sand
beds. These are now being cleaned
and it will require two or three weeks
before the city water isNfree of all
bacteria. But there is now absolutely
no danger OF disease from impurities
in the water"
Nearly every householder has OBJ
served the improved appearance Of the
city water during the last week or
more. 1t is now almost as clear as
spring water. The disagreeable odor
that caused many complaints during
last fall has been eliminated for all
time.

TO THEIR CREDIT.

II 0 the credit of the state papers one of them
4 stands alone in its nsinuations that Chief
Justice Pennewll is consulted by his brother, the
Governor, in making appointments in the alleged
effort OF the Governor to build ap a personal
machine OF course it is the purpose the legiti
mate purpose of the Democratic papers, to make
all the trouble among the Republicans that they
can They know that as the campaign develops
they will have plenty of trouble with the rival
asprants for Senatorial honors in their own party
If they can stir up a commotion among the Re
pubcans, they think they will be able to divert
attention from the wrangling that is already ap-
pearng in their own ranks This is the reason
why Governor Pennewl is referred to as build
ing up personal machine with the hope of sue
ceeding Senator dupont, and it is the reason why
some OF them wish that Senator Richardson were
a candidate for reelection They have no par
tcuiar admiration for the Dover Senator, but
perhaps they would not oppose him so bitterly
as they do Senator DUPONT
This bitter opposition 10 Senator dupont as we
have frequently said on the part of certain Demo-
cratic papers, IS entirely personal Some years
ago they were loud IN their praises of the Senator
OF course the opposition TO DUPONT on the part
of most of the Democratic weeklies is not inspired
by personal motives, as they have nothing to do
with the various social or business entanglemcnts
in Wilmington, and such matters should not
idrly enter INTO pOntCal contests, but II Is well
for the Republicans of the lower counties to know
the reason of these assaults upon the New Castle
county Senator in this city
The attacks upon Governor Pennewill are
really indirect attacks upon the Senator
The dragging in of the name of Chief Justice
Pennewill is a personal matter with the paper
that did it, due to the disappointment of a certain
group of Kent county lawyers over the appoint
ment of the judges Chief Justice Pennew of
course needs no extended defence. Participation
tn the political affairs of the state is the farthest
thing from his thoughts. And in some political
matters in the past, Governor Pennewill and his
brother, unless we are in error, have held differ
ent views.
The new court. of which Chief Justice Penne-
will is the honored head has been free of politics,
and to picture the Chief Justice as being in any
way concerned in the filling of a small position is
absurd In this county it may be recalled as
showing the freedom of the bench from politics,
that the court officials regardless Of their political
affiliations were obtained.
As we said it is gratifying to note that
no Democratic paper but one has been so parti-
san as to lug in the name of the Chief Justice and
that paper has been rebuked for so doing by
another newspaper OF its own party.

BETTER RAILROAD
SAFEGUARDS WANTED

HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb. 19.-Sug-
gestions are being made to the pub
lic-service commission for additional
safeguards I'm train operation Just now
that are causing endless discussion by
operating men. One of them that was
not favorably received by the COM
mission and one that does not impress
railroad men comes from a Rochester
man who suggests the use of sky
rockets or roman candles as a means
OF warnings 10 trains approaching a
wreck or other hindrance.
Arthur w. Balm, chief clerk to r. L.
ODonnel, general superintendent of
the Pennsylvania. says that the Penn
sylvania system has fuses and torpe-
does as the additional safeguards that
are believed to be far ahead Of the
roman candle idea. other railroad
systems also use the fuses.
When a train is delayed on the road
at night and its crew has reason TO
believe there is another approaching.
II is the fiagmans duty to throw a
fuse into the track. This fuse burns
for ten minutes and an approaching
train must come TO an absolute stop
until il burns out and then proceed
cautiously. They burn a big red light.
In the day time caps are used on the
rails. The approaching train running
over two caps slows up and proceeds
cautiously one cap is a signal for
an instant stop until the cause is
ascertained.
These are additional safeguards
which the Pennsylvania has been us
ing along its block signal system for
years and has found them practicable

Eoonomv and Reform,

Dover Republican.
The report Of County Treasurer Buck
son for the six months ending January 81.
which has just been issued shows there
was a balance on hand In the county
treasury of s7O55s7. on the first day Of
August. 1909; that during the six months
ending January 81. there had been collect
ed ir county taxes and turned in 10 the
Levy Court. the sum of SIG, i6,S7O.6O-ma'xlig z
a total OF receipts with the balance),
rents, fines. ETC., OF $S0,O5i2s.
And despite this, the report shows tho
treasurer was compelled to overdraft at
the bank to the amount Of si1 .oS42s.
And thus is shown it cost these DEMO-
cratic reformers $41,S3556 to run this coun-
~ for six months, and they have sunk the
county in debt to the tune OF 81. .2S42S.
And yet President Sapp told tho public
in his famous statement that this county
was being run at moderate expense un-
der Reform Democratic rule.

His PreroaatIve.
Dover Republican.

Dover Republican.
Simeon s. Pennewin is Governor of the
State Of Delaware. He was elected to that
position by the votes Of large majority
Of his fellow citizens. who had full con-
fidence in him and admired his private
character and public record, despite me
slanderous and vituperative fulminations
of certain papers Of the opposition party.
This confidence of the voters who elected
him has never weakened. nor has he in
the slightest degree betrayed 1t.
y few days ago Governor Pennewin, ex-
ercising the prerogative which Is his, ap-
pointed to a vacancy on the State Board
Of Agriculture, oliver p. Newton, a life
long friend and neighbor, and one OF the
best-known and most successful farmers
in the State. Now no one questions Mr..
Newton's eminent fitness for this position
from any point Of view demanded by its
duties He is booked on everything per-
tanning to most advanced methods OF agri-
culture, as his personal success with their
application fully testhes
But scarcely had this appointment been
announced when the same journals which
SO bitterly assailed the Governor during
the campaign began pouring their via $
OF wrath in his direction. because. for
sooth, Mr.. Newton is a Repub lean and
takes an interest in his party's success.
And they are keeping II up for their own
amusement perhaps, most assuredly not
with any expectation Of affecting Cover
nor Pennewn or Of influencing the de-
cent conservative sentiment Of Delaware.
They failed miserably in their effort along
this line during the campaign, and are
doing so again.

down for the evening.
