Troubles Of Fruit shippers.

MllIord Chronicle.
For thirty years the growers and
shippers of fruit from, the Delaware
Peninsula have experienced about
the same conditions form year to year,
and suffered a loss in solid cash each
year by reason of the late arrival of
fruit trains in the great city mar
kets. Notwithstanding the fruit grow
ers pay a special high freight rate for
special fast freight delivery, the trains
during the short peach season arrive
frequently so late as to practically
lose the market for that day. In the
past there has been no effort made
to remedy this trouble and rebate
the loss to the growers, on their part I;
but, II would seem to the layman that
the railroad management would at
tempt to foster the business, and en-.
large its revenues, so that both the
carrier and the grower could build
up, rather than abandon the business
by reason of, its drawbacks.
There is a remedy somewhere. and
the sooner IL is applied. the better il
will be for all concerned. As matters
now stand the growers of perishable
fruits feel that they have no outlet
for certain delivery to the great cities
of the northD unless they add ex-
pense to their transportation accounts
by refrigeration, which leaves little
encouragement for them. Why is IL
that extra fast freight service liberal
ly paid for, falls down so often, and
always at the cost of the grower
That is a question which has been
before the people of this peninsula SO
long, that it is moss-grown with old
age.

BIG NOISE OVER SMALL MATTER.

1 N ORDER-to relieve the perturbed Sunday Star
- we would state that the letter signed Dis
satisfied which criticised the purchase Of tract
in the wilderness for Fairgrounds was written
by Mr. John S. Hamilton, who replies TO The
Star in another column. The letter was left at
The Journal Office without signature and it was
not known then whether MIR. Hamilton wished his
name attached TO il or not Mr. Hamilton had
no desire TO fire from ambush, but even at that
the reply of the Sunday Star which based its edi-
torial article on the anonymous character of the
letter was striking at a small point, perhaps be-
cause the Star had run out of reasons for de-
Tending the purchase of the Ford tract at what
many persons consider a very high figure.
The Sunday Star frequently prints letters which
are not signed by the names of the writers, al
though The Star as we'll as The Journal doubt
less believes that it is much better for writers
of communications to append their correct names,
TO them After all, in the letter of Mr. Hamilton
it is the substance that The Star should havefas-
sailed and not the personality known or unknown.
of the writer.
Whenever The Sunday Star is in hole, found
erng around it is in its preposterous defense
of the playground matter, it tries to divert
attention by attacking the personality of some'
one.

Editorial Opinion
The Kalser's Snasm.


New York Evening Sun.
Even the monarsh-worshippi part
OF Germany has received the outburst
Of egoism on the part of the Kaiser
the first In two years-with regret and
positive disapproval.
The reason why is plain. Thought
ful citizens OF the Fatherland are
touchy about foreign opinion SO they
realize how absurd it must seem to
Americans and Englishmen and
Frenchmen to have one man set him
self up as the source of all that Is
moral, decent, honorable and so on
in the Empire, as If he were the Vicar
of Providence upon earth.
If there were I'm some other part OF
the world another colossal egoist
who thought that he was on terms OF
close friendship with his Maker, and
had been specially appointed to set
everything right, It would be some
consolation to the Germans. But sc
great is the modesty of public men
at present that they are deprived OF
even this slight solace

THE ATTACK ON HEALD.

ME DO not think the trainers Of the Re-
publican platform at the convention to be
held at Dover tomorrow will have any difficulty
IN making plank with regard to national issues
The conduct of the senators and Representative
HeaId will unquestionably be approved and the
tariff law as enacted by Congress will be support
Cd not as perfect measure by any means, but
as an advance in tariff making. We fancy also
that the Taft idea of tariff revision including
the commission plan will be heartily praised
There has been no serious complaint among the
Republicans TO the attitude of Congressman
Heald in supporting Mr.. Cannon for speaker, and
we think that as Cannon and his ideas have passed
or will be things of the past when the next con
gress meets, no one need worry about Cannon.
Certainly there is no such split among the Re
pubcans of Delaware as there is in some Of the
western states and there is no likelihood of the
Z creation of a disturbance in the affairs of the
party on that score The Democrats of course
would be delighted TO Kick up a rumpus among
the Republicans but their efforts to make Mr.
Heald the goat" have proved abortive.

CONVENTION TOMORROW.

HE Republican convention which meets to-

be entirely harmonious. A statement from

regret on the part of those who are accustomed

The splendid opportunity is open TO The
convention TO put forward a live and ag
gressive platform which will keep the Democrats
on the jump from the beginning to the end of the
campaign. While national issues are undoubtedly
important in the coming campaign, the people of
Delaware are getting in the humor of desiring pro-
gressive home legislation. q
We have of late called attention to various
points which we think should be considered in the
platform so that the Republicans may assume
ant of these is the Public Service Commission The
Republicans have a splendid chance to take up
this matter apd deal with il in an intelligent man

the demand for such commission viii be inn
perative
Many states have such commissions, other states
are moving rapidly in that direction and Delaware
has chance to get in the procession and not
TO wind up in few years at the tail of il. The
Republican party as the party of progress in
Delaware, as the party which was responsible for
the new constitution movement is expected to take
the lead and point the way in this matter and
il should do What the voters want in these
days is a clear-cut defining of issues and sound
l statement of what party stands for and they

TAFTs PLEA FOR THE PARTY.

N HIS letter to Chairman Mckinley of the
, = Congressional Committee President Taft
makes out a very good case for the Republican
party, and his calm and judicious review of the
work of the Republicans during the last session
OF Congress should win him the commendstion of
right thinking voters who are not affected by un-
due noise and profuse professions.
The President is reading no one out of the
party He is not exaggerating Republican diff
ferences, but he urges all Republicans to support
he party and enable il 10 carry forward the
scheme of legislation to which it is committed
Democratic victory would mean the tying of
the hands of the Chief Magistrate and an absolute
blockade of legislation for the next two years
That much time would be lost. The question
therefore, is not one of regularity or insurgency
bat whether the Republicans intend TO turn Con-
gress over to the Democrats with the consequent
results of legislative inactivity We think thar Re-
pnblicans and Independents will hesitate long be-
fore they decide TO vote for blockade.
AS respects the tariff, the President takes the
wind out of the sails OF the Democrats by showing
that the high prices of necessities with very few
sxeeptons affect articles in the tariff upon which

THE COUNTY R0k.T QUESTION

The statement last week in the
Record, that the board of super
visors turned down Dell Potter on
the road across the country is an
error.
The members of the board assure
us that they are all in favor of the
good roads movement and will do
anything in reason to forward the
movement.
No road has ever been laid out
by the territorial engineer, but as
soon as this is done they will not
hesitate to levy the necessary tax
to build the road, providing the tax
payers want it.
The position the board has taken
is that no road has been laid out
through this county and all that
was asked for was the construction
of few hundred yards Of road in
Clifton that will cost between ST.
600 and $4,000.
The board levieds cents on each
$100 valuation, for the purpose of
laying out the territorial road
through this county, and the money
has been paid by the tax payers.
and the board does not propose to
compel the people to pay more
money until the engineer who has
been drawing salary for year,
shows them that the money is to be
spent for road betterment in this
county. and that the road is to be
built where it will do the most good
for the most people.
The board has not turned down
the good road proposition, but they
are determined to know that if they
levy tax that the money will be
spent on making better roads in the
county and not elsewhere.
Seems to us that it is up to the
territorial engineer to lay out the
road through this county and give
the board his plans and estimates.
Our board has never been consulted
by the territorial engineer regard.
