ton Has Excellent Record Of
Caring for Its Members
PAYS SICK, ACCIDENT
AND DEATH BENEFITS

IL is gratifying to know that there
are some reliable associations and
companies that offer a safe invest
ment and bring financial aid and relief
to their members and policy holders
when they become stricken through
sickness, accident or death. AZ a time
when assistance is most needed.
There is in this city an association
which has for its object the relief of
the family, not only after the death
Of the bread winner, but also during
his or her inability to work on ac-
count of either sickness or accident.
BY this association the member If
thus helped over the critical times
and supplied with funds for the pur-
chase of medicines and eatables until
able and strong enough TO resume his
usual vocation.
This association is The Delaware
Beneficial Association, of which Ben
iamin T. Bye is president, and II. r..
Craig, secretary and treasurer, with
offices In the McVey building, corner
of Market and Eighth streets. For the
past fifteen years this association has
worked quietly, but efficiently for the
relief of the sick and injured, and
faithfully carried out its contracts of
caring for the families of afflicted
members. The word of this associa-
ton has been as good as its bond.
A certificate i'm the association is
entirely free from technical condi-
tions. 1t has never failed to pay a

between the ages of two and sixty
years. There are no assessments, no

cal examination charges. The as
sociation has no liabilities of any
kind other than its obligations to its
member for benefits. It is incor-
porated in Delaware and i'm Maryland,
and extends its good work through
out both states. lt is an association
of merit well worth inquiring into by
those in need of financial protection.

REPuBLICAN NOMINATIONS.

Republicans to try TO bring about the nomination
Of a Kent man for State auditor in the party con-
vention at Dover next week This is the hrst init

generally anticipated plan to renominate Con-

Mr.. Heald and Mr.. Clark residents of New
Castle county and Mr.. Moore is a resident of Sus-
sex county, and Republican custom has been TO re-
nominate the officials chosen for two-year terms.
This is what has been expected by New Castle
county Republicans in the present instance and,
so far as we know, by the Republicans of Kent
and Sussex, and the rumbling from Milford is the
first intimation of anything to the contrary.

THIS TABLE OF
UNIQUE DESIGN

Many persons have called at the
rooms Of the Eleventh Ward Demo-
cratic League to inspect a table of
unique design. Thomas P. Ryan, Ben
jamin Green and Joseph P. Barden
designed the table.
The top is the outcome Of two years
OF labor, and is composed of 1000
cigar bands mounted on a table COW
cred with bleached canvas. Upon the
bands is a large piece of plate glass
5-S of an inch in thickness. The table
is ten sided and the edges are COW
cred with brass langes.
The bands under the glass are fixed
SO that if the glass should be broken
the. bands would remain intact. These
bands are laid on a covering of gilt
paper and are arranged i'm the shape
OF five-pointed star. These stars are
composed of flags of all nations, with
an American flag at the apex Of each
point. In the center is a picture OF
President Taft surrounded by the like
nesses of all his predecessors from
Washington down to Roosevelt.
Directly above the picture OF the
President is the coat OF arms of the
thirteen original states, with Della
wares at the top, with the arms OF
the other states circling. Within the
points are pictures of the officers and
those of Mayor J. Harvey Spruance
the late Thomas +. Bayard. President
of Council Banning and William ]
Bryan. Around the circle are to be
seen the portraits of AZ active mem

DECREASE IN PER CAPITA WEALTH.

- ONE of the wise have figured out that
- the per capita wealth of the United States
has lately diminished forty-nine cents and each
would have forty-nne cents less at present
than he would have if there had been divide
up" some time ago.
Just what has become of the lost forty-nne
cents is a mystery TO these thinkers Some be-
lieye that il has been swallowed up in the high
cost of living, but if so il would not have dis
appeared from the aggregate total of wealth in
the nation.
Others venture the assertion that the drain of
tourists from this country to Europe, those who
go abroad with full purses and come back with
empty ones, is responsible for the decrease per
capita and then again. the opinion is advanced
that the increasing immigration is responsible
for the wealth on per capita basis has to be
divided among a greater number that is divided
hguratively speaking. The latter explanation is
about good any, but if it be true, our pro-
ducton of wealth is not keeping pace with the in
crease of our population, and that is not de-
sirable condition. If this explanation be correct
the decrease in the per capita should be only tenn
porary.
After all, a slight decrease does not amount to
much The question today is not what the total
wealth of the country is, but how it is distributed
and who is getting il. Forty-nine cents is not an
alarming decrease. We have natural resources and
natural wealth almost without limit and it would
be easy task for to increase our total sup
ply Of wealth.

TO ADVERTISE WILMINGTON.

ONE of the alert members of the Board OF
- Trade are preparing to put signs along the
railroads that touch at Wilmington, calling atten-
ton to this city manufacturing center. They
think it is time TO advertise Wilmington in this
manner, and we agre With them. Although most
intelligent persons passing through the city a
train know Wilmington when they come to 1t,
several large signs displayed in a fitting manner
would rvet the attention of even the most unob-
serving passenger, to the fact that he was in the
manufacturing city of Wilmington which has many
advantages TO offer.
There is no telling how much curiosity is reused
by such sigus. Wilmington is on the map, and
should tell travellers of that fact. The plan to
post signs is, we trust, but beginning of the good
work for Wilmington that should be done by the
Board of Trade during the coming season.
Let us have se~Tan and winter of unusual activ-
ity. Let us iRfHuire why Wilmington has not made
the growtkn In population that il should have
seses ~fy it has not kept pace with the percent
age Of increase made by most other cities of our
class.
1t would be good time this fall to take ac
count of municipal stock TO find out where we are
to get up schemes that will attract manufacturers
to this city and TO increase the business of our
old There many subjects which could

A RAILROAD VIEW.

~ RESIDENT RIPLEY of the Sante Fe Rail-
road Company has sent a circular TO the
men in his employ warning them against the mach
inations of "demagogues" and the like who are
making unjust attacks upon the railroad COM
panes That railroad men should stand together,
seems TO be the view of the Sante Fe president He
thinks that the records of all the candidates for
the Legislatures should be scrutnized and those
who have shown hostility to the railroad companies
should be deefated. Those who stand for anti
railroad legislation ought to be defeated declares
President Ripley.
No one could object TO men looking out for
their own interests, although some critics might
call the letter to the railroad men an effort 10
roerce their votes. Ii might be interesting to
just what is meant by anti-railroad leg
slation If everything that the railroads disIiked
were TO be opposed by legislators, nothing would

to do they please and yet they know we'll
any other person know that rebating and
determinations and favoritsm are morally and
legally wrong in that they give man advan-
tage another and they against the principle
OF the square deal. Such methods are wrong be-
the shipper is often at the mercy of one rail-
road company. He can do nothing but submit to
whatever charges it chooses to make. He is at
the mercy of the company and may suffer because
his competitor stands In with the railroads and
gets fayors that the other man does not enjoy.
Business conducted under such stress is sort of
guerilla warfare Happily it is becoming thing
of the past.
1t would be much better for the western rail-
road companies to join in the moral "uplift" So
called, and to crying that they are unfairly
dealt with Even under the Lafollette regime in
Wisconsin it is said that the railroad companies in
that State are doing better than ever

A RETURN TO SAVAGERY.

NATURALLY the populace is aroused over the
brutal murder of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Casey,
who we're beaten TO death by a burglar while they
slept OF the many murders in Delaware, the
Claymont tragedy stands out as one of the most
cold blooded and deliberate. Had robbery merely
been the object of the invader of the Casey home
it doubtless could have been accomplished without
resort TO the savagery that characterized the
slaving of the aged couple, who had they dis
covered the thief at work could not have made
much of resistance because of their advanced
years. Nothing should be left undone by the au-
thorties to try to capture and bring to justice tho
murderer or murderers, and substantial reward
should be offered as an incentive toward enlist
ing persons in addition to the police and detectives
in the quest for the brute Delawareans must he
saieguarded in their homes and in the highways

At last a practical use for the house fly has
been discovered. The other day thrty-eight bags
of dead flies we're shipped from New York to
Germany where they will be used for chicken
feed. With them went many bags of dead grass
hoppers which will be employed for the same pur-
pose. Ii appears that the good flies are the
dead ones for they may be made TO serve some
useful purpose But this commercial use of dead
flies certainly shows that we are conserving our
resources. No doubt before long the cities will
have their special dead fly gatherers, and if the
Board of Health has its way in this city, there
will be few live flies and the labor of gathering
the dead ones may be extensive.
