POSTAL COLLECTION SYSTEM

a MOVEMENT is taking shape to revive the
street car mail collection service which
ceased operation in this city a few months ago.
II seems that at the time when the service was dis
continued 1t was understood that il would be re-
stored as soon as satisfactory arrangements could
be made for its final permanent installation here
between the Post Office Department and the
Street Railway Company which carried on the pos
tal experiment The management of the railway
company, since that time, has changed hands. and
this il is stated, has served to delay for the pres
ent time any action in the matter
The car method proved extremely convenient
and expeditions in the mailing OF both local and
out of town letters.
II IS therefore TO be hoped that the Government
and the company will soon get together in the
matter, and that not many more days will elapse
before all parts Of the city will be ENJOYING the
advantages OF this time-economizing as we'll as up-
to-date postal collection service.

A Greater Chestertown.

Baltimore American.
A large section OF the business cen
ter of Chestertown now lies in ruins.
But the devastation wrought by a fire
sweep has never been an irretrievable
calamity to any progressive American
city or town. On the contrary, a fire
visitation has almost invariably
aroused individual and communal
spirit to extraordinary energy and ac-
tivity, and cities and towns that have
suffered from extensive confagrations
have almost invariably been rebuilt
In more substantial and more attrac-
tive form. And in bettered form
Chestertown will undoubtedly retrieve
her disaster.
One lesson the old Kent town will
surely have learned from the recent
fire sweep, and that is that the wooc-
en- frame building should be eliminat-
ed from the compactly built section
of the town. There is now an op-
portunity to put up a solid brick
row, fronting on the main business
street, and both from regard for
appearances and from a purpose of
lessening the fire danger this should
be done. There is a certain pic
turesqueness, of course, about the
business section Of an old town, where
the shops and other buildings date
back a century or so, but the antique
in everyday life may very well be
sacrificed to modern ideals.
The fire has given Chestertown an
opportunity that should not be
neglected. The residential sections are
OF an attractiveness that always oc-
casions remarks from visitors. And so
the burned over block in the business
section can be restored in a manner
that will make every visitor take no

DIRECT PRIMARIES.

IT HE sentiment in favor of direct primaries for
Il the nomination of candidates for Office is
slowly but surely growing in Delaware.
In the Tenth or Milford Representative district
primary election is being held today by mutual
consent TO nominate candidate for The Legisla-
tire Without waiting to see whether this test Of
tho primary is successful not the Sussex County
Republican convention in session at Georgetown
the other day. declared in favor OF direct primaries
like those in New Castle county. The Sussex Re
pubcans evidently believe that the Milford expert
ment will be satisfactory.
So far the Democrats Of the State have made
but little progress towards direct primaries. The
old convention system is still followed, even IN New
Castle county in making some nominations efforts
10 abolish the county convention having failed sew
J eral years ago.
The Republicans here, as is we'll known, have no
county convention The primary plan has proved
satisfactory and there is no desire to change it. In
has been done by either party towards direct pri-
maries Such primaries are held in Maryland ana
~r~sn, PR states The great issue in New York
r'oE affenters around direct primaries.
wlAe1 v ersons- thought that the recent Demo.
M 11C ate Convention would consider the sub
direct primaries in view of the fight that
=. in the party over the choice OF candidate
for senator. But nothing was done by the con-
venton because the leaders of the party are really
opposed TO the principle of direct primaries just
as they are opposed to the income tax and other
things which find favor with Democrats elsewhere
1t will not be many years before direct prima-
IS will be general in Delaware. The candidate
for Congress will be named at such primaries and
the people will have opportunity TO express
their choice for senator. This reform ought to
come about in Delaware. ThOs is absolutely no
valid reason whysa few men should be permitted
to dictate the names of candidates for Office why
the people should be shut out
We trust that the Milford primary election to-
day will be entirely fair. No improper influencing
OF voters should be tolerated and candidates at all
primaries should be free from the intortunties
Of grafters.
he chief objection to direct primaries in Della
ware has been the holding up OF candidates by
grafters and the participation OF members of one
party IN the primaries of the other party But
these annoyances could be easily remedied and
then we should have model primary But at anv
rate the primary system to be the best
method of making nominations because II gives
the people voice in their party affairs adds TO
their responsibility and prevents manipulation bv

be held on the same day under the same election

Seems like old times to hear about the Hon.
John F. Salisbury speaking at a Democratic meet
ing in this city and at the Democratic League too.
John F. was hand and glove with the League dur
ing the dark Democratic days of 1896, and now
that the League is in afluence just as Colonel
Bryan is, no one perhaps rejoces more than John
Freesver Salisbury, who despite his protestations
that he has abandoned politics and is devoting his
time to theological topics finds few moments TO
discuss politics. In bis day Mr. John F. was one
of the political irebrands of Kent, and many
think that he could have come back as a candi-
date for the legislature, but he wouldn't try.

GOOD ROADS CONGRESS.

HE National Good Roads Congress is in ses-
II sion in ST. Louis IL has for its purpose
the arousing of sentiment in favor of the State
and the government building improved highways
Each succeeding convention becomes more and
more enthusiastic over good roads Many skilled
in road construction will read papers and discuss
the subject in all its phases.
It would have been q good idea if Kent and
Sussex counties had sent delegates to the
venton. No part OF Delaware at this time should
be more concerned in road improvement than the
lower counties
One problem that perplexes them is the expense
of road building About every man you talk TO,
who is at all interested favors good roads, but he
baks at the expense. President Sapp of Kent
County Levy Court declares himself 10 be for
good roads, but is doubtful about how the matter
can be dealt with owing to the expense.
Perhaps this phase of it will be settled by the
next Legislature should that body decide on
permanent state highway. And as both parties
are pledged TO good roads the Legislature VIII
undoubtedly do something towards state road
In that event the counties could devote their
money to building cross roads
But the county authorities OF Kent hesitate be-
cause of the great expense. II would seem tnat
macadam roads are inadvsabe for the cross roads
OF Kent but there should be some cheaper method
of construction OF such roads.
One cause of complaint is that competent per-
sons are not employed even in the present road
building Much of the money devoted 70 that pur-
pose goes to waste is frttered away and il will
always be so if the question of improving the
county roads is a matter of mere partisan politics.
