Former Delawarean Pays n Tribute TO
the Memory of the Late Chief

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
Kindly allow me to contribute n
few words to the memory of one,
who, though departed. continues in
the memory OF those among whom he
lived so many years. / refer TO the
late lamented Charles Brown Lore

came acquainted with Charles B.
Lore back in the sixties; he, a man
OF mature years and / a small boy
not yet in my teens. So many times
he had placed his hands on my head
and told me to always walk in the
path of virtue and truth. In later
years I often thought of the good
advice he had given me in my youth,
and which | have endeavored to fol-
low through life. am proud to have
known one of such noble character
as his.
When decided to give up the
newspaper business in Delaware. for

Sussex Republican, of Georgetown,

friends l approached for a letter Of
commendation was the then Hon
Charles B. Lore. He said he would

that letter to this day. and expect to
hand It with others, to future genera

THE PLAY on rae JuGGLERs.

nj o MATTER what may be the fate Of the va
= rious bills looking TO the creation of Pub
lie Utilities Commission for the city or the State,
II will be interesting and divertng TO watch the
jugglery that is being practced by certain poll
ucians in order TO defeat these measures
There has been formidable open opposition
TO the bill, but that fact does not mean that the
powerful whsperers are not actively at work try
ing TO knock the measures in the head
The first round in the jugglery presents what TO
some people might be regarded as a humiHating
isct, and the humiliating fact is the we'll founded
belief that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has so firm a grip on the General Assembly that
il would be impossible TO get bill passed by the
General Assembly which the Railroad influences
seriously opposed.
II is said that the Railroad Company would op-
pose Public Utilities Commission that applied to
fhe State, and therefore both measures now be-
fore the Legislature are limited in their appca-
ton TO the city of Wilmington.
In one respect il is pity, however, that a vote
Is not taken on Public Utilities Commission bill
that would apply to the State. Such vote would
result in the unmasking of the Legislature The
people would then see just how many Of the leg
islators wear the railroad collar, how many men
serve the Railroad Companys interests first and
those OF the people afterward II would show I'D the
real division of Delaware sentiment and would
snow how tareioal are party lines Democratic and
republican, when the interests OF the Railroad
Company are involved

Editorial Opinion
Bibles for aDrnmmers.y

Philadelphia Press.
The travelling statesmen of the
United States, according to an
unofffsjal census, number about
100000. A popular fallacy regards
the "drummer" as the embodiment of
irresponsible fIivolity when he is not
engaged i'm hypnOjzing the retailer
into purchasing extrSvagant orders
of goods. People overlook the profess
sional aspects of the cOS0mercial
travellers fondness for the nerry
quip and piquant story. They fail to
take into account the sense of loneli-
ness, of Inconsistencies. which must
come to a man who spends one-third
more i'm hotels, while he is separated
for many months at a time from his
family.
Ordinarily the drummer" is a
philosopher. As often as not he is q
serious-minded man, giving to intro
spection through being thrown SO
much upon his personal resources
for self-entertainment He is not
without knowledge of his own short
comings; but few will credit him with
an aspiration for spiritual uplift. It
happens, however. that an Organiza-
ton called the GideOns exists i'm the
ranks Of the travelling statesmen.
Their object is non-denominatiOnal
religious culture. To this end they
have begun the distribution of 100 600
Bibles I'm the rooms of leading hotels
I'm the United States. About 10000
copies of the Scriptures have already
been distributed
This is a pious and useful work and
Il cannot fail to bear good fruit.
Educators hear testimony to the lack
of Biblical knowledge among the
students at leading colleges and uni
versities. Evidently the Bible, though
circulated by millions, is no longer
generally read i'm the home. Young
men who would be ashamed to admit
ignorance of an allusion to The
mythology of ancient Greece, do not
understand an ordinary Scriptural
reference. The drummer" who finds
a Bible in his bedroom at the hotel
may have childhood memories recall
ed to him and read through senti-
ment. Or, seeing the Bible, may
awaken either a religious impulse or
simple curiosity.
From whatever initiative one takes
to Bible reading, the result cannot
fail to be an increase Of spiritual cui-
ture intellectual breath and literary
appreciation. There is no more in
teresting book in the world of litera-
ture than the Bible. I'm itself the Won
derful literature of a wonderful peo-
pie. And of all the monuments Of
English literature. the King James
version of the Hebrew Scripture is
the greatest. The Gideons are doing
a splendid work, not only for their
fellow-traveling statesmen, but for all
hotel guests who will profit by the
distribution of the Book of Books.

INCOME TAX AMENDMENT.

HE question Of the ratification Of the pro-
Il posed income tax amendment TO the consttu-
tion has not yet been considered by the Delaware
Legislature. That body should not adjourn with
out going on record either for the amendment or
against IT, The fact that neither the Democratic
nor the Republican State convention mentioned
the amendment is not reasonable excuse for refusal
to notice it,
The proposed amendment is a measure advo-
oated by President Taft and put before the people
Of the country through their representatives in
Legislatures for consideration. Some action,
therefore, is necessary in Delaware.
fs II should be clearly borne in mind just what
1nhe amendment if ratified would do. Ii would
andstore to the National Congress an authority
Which it generally believed TO possess until
1e adverse decision of the Supreme Court about
..asffeen years ago. BY narrow margin Of one
vote, that Tribunal decided the income tax uncon-
stifutional.
If the amendment to the Constitution is ratified
such ratification would not mean that an income
tax would be imposed 1t would simply be that
the Government would have authority to levy the
tax if necessary
There may be extraordinary occasions on
which the Government would need an income tax
In times of war the Government can draw upon the
men Of the country for their services but it can
not draw upon the wealth of the country by means
of income tax. 1t must raise the necessary
revenue by other means And yet in such emer-
gencies il would seem only fair that an income
tax should be levied Without however, going
into any extended discussion of the subject The
Journal believes that our Legislature should take
action on the amendment one way or the other.
