Editorial Opinion
The Sunrise Bell.


Manchester Union.
The ringing Of the curfew at 8
o'clock in the evening is still contin-
ued in not few New England cities
and towns, as here In Manchester,
frankly for sentimental reasons and
out of respect for ancient custom, no
one pretending that any attention is
paid to it as a signal for retiring or
even seeking ones ireside. But it
would seem that there was nothing to
be said in favor Of the practice of
ringing the sunrie bell, and that IL
might well be discontinued Such is at
last the feeling of the members of the
First Baptist Church. of Providence,
r. !. Since J775 the bell of this church
has rung at sunrise. noon and at 9
o'clock at night on every week day,
except on the two occasions when It
has, been cracked and it was necessary
to recast it, When the bell was hung
in l115 the town agreed to pay a fixed
sum every year to meet the expense
OF ringing it three times each day. and
it was undoubtedly Of service in the
days when probably not one family in
10 had timepiece in the house. Later
proposition to, discontinue the sun
rise ringing was opposed by promi-
nent members of the church and as
the town, or city. was bound by an
agreement. the ringing continued.

NEW YoRK's CAMPAIGN.

hESPITE the supposed aggressiveness of the
~ New York State campaign caused by Colonel
Roosevelts injection of his personality into the
conflict the voters of the greater city do not seem
to be particularly aroused.
There has been a falling off of almost 10000
in the registration of voters of New York city COM
pared with two years ago, although it was ex-
pected this year would show an increase. The
tremendous decrease shows so little interest in the
city that the vote there will be the lightest of
years
The Democrats have counted upon large vote
in the city to overcome the Republican pluralities
in the upstate counties Tammany has had trou-
bles of its own. The refusal to nominate Sulzer
as the candidate for governor and the loading
down Of the ticket with machine men for the minor
Offices have tended to cast cloud of apathy over
the voters.
In addition Tammany has named its old candi
dates again for the Legislature, although the vot-
ers are weary of them, especially weary when they
consider the exposures Of the Black Horse Cav
airy at Albany which exposures involved num-
Der OF Tammany leaders. The Tammany candi-
dates for CongreSsf who went 20 the support OF
Speaker Cam on, when needed have also been re-
nominated bv Murphy and there is nothing about
them TO inspire enthusiastically the Democrats OF
the city who are not directly under the control OF
Tammany.
The blunders of Murphy, together with the fact
that the Democratic candidate for Governor, Mr..
John A. Dix is not we'll known throughout the
city have made il hard shedding for the Democrats,
and there seems 10 be solid basis for the betting
odds which are reported to favor the Democratic
ticket
The progress of the campaign has developed the
strength of Stmson, the Republican candidate for
Governor, and If the falling off in the registra-
ton in the Democratic stronghods means as much
as such condition meant in years gone by, the
chances are in favor Of the Republican State ticket.
Although there is lack of interest in New
York cities in other large cities the same condi-
ton does not obtain. There is a very heavy regis
tration in Chicago for example, showing that the
voters are aroused and will be at the polls in
swarms

TARIFF AND OUR INDUSTRIES.

- HOULD Mr.. Robert c. White the Democratic
~ candidate for Congress, il elected, favor a
tariff bill proposed by Mr. Champ Clark, the
Democratic leader of Congress, he would support
a schedule which would remove the duty on finish
ed manufactured leather on which there is
duty of is per cent. The duty was formerly
25 per cent. and the Clark idea is to remove it
entirely
The duty on this product directly affects one
of the most important industries of Wilmington the
manufacture of glazed kid. During the debate
on the tariff bill there was considerable alarm
among Wilmington manufacturers, and as we have
said before it currently reported and thorough
y believed TO be that one of the largest fac
tories of the city would have closed down and
removed abroad had the duty been entirely
moved. Other factories might have done likewise,
but whether they followed that course or not
they would have been greatly hampered in their
business and the workingmen employed in the
factories would have suffered along with those
who had money invested in such manufacturing.
The morocco factories of the city in normal
times, have an annual volume of business of from
Sl5O00,000 to $l8000000, so that il can be under
stood at a glance what a serious blow it would be to
the city if these factories we're crippled as they
would be by following the Champ Clark idea of
tariff bill
Congressman Heald made a determined stand
IN conference against the removal Of the tariff
glazed kid and he earned the thanks of the man
ufacturers we'll OF all others who depend upon
these industries for a livelihood. Ii was a plain
practical question TO them, one which concerns
them directly and which greatly concerns the en-
rire city There should be no doubt about how the
citzG,s a this community should vote on the can
dida% wa Congress. If they want to these
leather industries flourishing and the city bene-
fitted, they will take chances by voting for the
Democratic candidate who is not very familial
with the business situation and manufacturing sit
uafion in Wilmington whose chief idea is to watch
for the interests of Sussex county.
Mr. HeaId has been thoroughly alive in taking
care OF the business and manufacturing interests
Of Wilmington and he has not by any means ne
~lscted the other parts of the State.

KANSAS VIEW OF LIFE

A boy likes TO smoke i'm the pros-
ence of his mother, and have her say;
Goodness knows | did everything I

Whenever we do thing We should
not do, we feel sneaking about it. and

Evening journal., 1910-10-24

The basic welfare Of Wilmington directly de-
pends upon the success or failure of her manu-
featuring industries. If they are crippled the city
necessarily goes backward. Is not Mr.. Heald
therefore, to be commended for the firm fight he
made TO protect one Of the most important
branches of manufacturing in Wilmington? Is not
his answer TO questions that may be put this
score satisfactory to those who wish for the pros
perity of Wilmington? Is there any thing that
his opponent, Mr.. White, could do TO benefit Will
mington? Could the Democratic program as out
lined by Mr.. Champ Clark be otherwise than harm
full to this city and her industries we're it put into
effect?

Tiger Fingers Allow OPP

home runs. which is four more than were

Boston Nationals and the Phillies exceed

Whether or not the American League

CAPTAIN At G. U.
Will Again Lead Football
Team on Hilltop.

At a meeting of the &C" men OF the
football team. held yesterday afternoon.
Vincent Daley was unanimously re-
elected captain Of the Georgetown Uni
Eversity football team for the coming sea-
son OF 1911. His election did not come
as surprise to his host Of friends. as
It was known fact that he was again
willing to undertake the leadership OF the
eleven, and at yesterdays meeting its
purpose was soon carried out when Cum
mfr proposed Dailey's name and Il was
seconded by Feenan.
Wymard offered a motion that IL be
made unanimous. and In the course OF
few minutes Daley was again put into
the position OF leading next years Blue
and Gray gridiron warrio-s-an unpre-
ccdented record. but Justly due % the
man. since It IS doubtful IL there ever
was player better capable to hold an
eleven together.
Vincent Daley comes from Brockport,
n. Y, taking a course in the George
town prep school, during which time ne
played guard on the prep eleven. IN his
freshman year IN college he made right
guard on the varsity, holding this same
position for the past two years.
This past season his work was OF the
highest order. considering the fact that
his duties as captain entailed a great
amount or work, such as holding the
team together at crucial periods Hav-
ing now played three years, this coming
year will be his last. as far az wearing
the colors OF the Blue and Gray are con-
ceTned and IL is safe TO say ne will
leave an enviable record behind him such
as no football captain has experienced ar
Georgetown in the past.

BRITISH IDEA OF
OUR FOOTBALL
Critics Say 1t Is Strenuous
Game for Men.

London, Dec. L-English footbaIlers
were impressed by the strenuousness OF
American football as played by teams
from the battle ships Idaho and Yer
mont at Crystal Palace. but they do not
advocate its adoption here. The Times
expert says:
american football is really an ANAL
gam Of our two games. developed on log
teal lines into pastime which. though
slow and iaborious. has many interest
ing points and is a drastic test OF
strength and courage It is a direct de-
scendant OF the football OF our ancestors,
OF which Stubbes said in 1888: I protest
unto you Il may be called a friendlls
kinde OF fyghte rather than play as
recreation: a bloody and numbering
practice than a felowly sport OF pas
time
The Sportsmans reporter says: The
missionary work OF the sailor teams was
greatly appreciated. II the enthusiastic
applause OF the crowds is a criterion,
but whether the display is likely TO affect
our national affection for Rugby is
doubtful. The American game seems 10
possess all the defects which those who
clamor for more open game urge
against Rugby, without some OF the lat
teTs virtues
The football expert says, on the other
hand: American football is entirely
different from Rugby and association in
every possible way. One thing Is very
certain, the game is a game for men, as
the Romans used the distinction between
real men and just human beings OF the
male sex"
