WOULD DESTROY THEIR PLEASURE.

hUR Democratic neighhor is greatly disturbed
N<hecause some Republican newspapers Of the
State the Middletown Transcript and the Sussex
Republican, between elections wander into the
attractive and fertile field OF progressive Repub-
lcanism. II would deny them that pleasure and
happiness They arc progressives, or pretend to
be, between times, but when election season rolls
around they line up staunchly with the Standpat-
ters Of Delaware and support the Organization
it is said.
Now these roamers in the green pastures might
reply that their critic does the same sort of
thing--thst it roams where it pleases, all the
time, within proper railway boundaries, but dur
ing the campaign in ninty-nine instances out of
one hundred it pleases to roam in the rankest
fields of Democratic partisanship. OF course to
Unsatisfactory TO our neighbor, it would seem
that the Transcript and the Sussex Republican
would have to grind out continually the same old
tune they would be debarred from criticism Of any
thing and everything that their party does they
would be stiff necked as the Dover Republican
They would have TO drink heavy ale of oonserv-
atsm and be denied an occasional light cocktail
of progressiveism, or if this figure otfends the
ultra drys these newspapers, TO use another eX
preston, would have TO eat all the time the heavy
hog meat of intense conservatism and be denied
the light and dainty lamb chops of progressivesm.
III the Transcript, which by the way, is delight
fully progressive at times-and we have never
heard il called a sore-head-pleasrS to regard the
Hon. Louis A. Drexer as the HoratuS at the
bridge in fearless and solitary defence, why deny
il that privilege, and discourage it by saying that
= few months from now il will be in line The
transcripts mention OF Horatus may cause some
Of the members Of the Legislature 10 dip into their
forgotten histories 10 inquire who he was, why
he didn't appoint a staff of colonies
10 help him hold the bridge Why should
these newspapers not be indignant even 10
their indignation does subsde? Some newspapers
cannot be indignant all the time
But really these so-called progressive newsps-
pers have high progressive authority for their atti-
tude The western progressives have always urged
their followers TO stay within the party to fight
their battles in it, for the simple reason that the
Democrats cannot be depended on 10 act sin
cerely for the reforms that the insurgents are ad-
vocating And the recent growth Of Democratic
standpattism Of which an exhibition was given in
the somersault over Cannon recently at Washing.
ton, shows that the opinion of the National Pro.
gresSive leaders was based on good grounds. And
as further example. Was there anything in the
Democratic platform in Delaware at the last con.
venuon that would attract a Progressive?

AT THE GARRICk THEATRE.
Charlotte Parry, Presenting a Novelty
Feature, "IntO the Light" and
Making a Big Hit

udhiuS blS nit
Rarely indeed has the Garrick pre-
sented a more meritorious bill than
that which opened at the house Mon
day for the coming week, and there
was but one opinion on this point
among the many who saw the OPEN
ing performances. The novelty feature
Unto the Light" which Charlotte
Parry. the protesn star, is presenting
vaudeville audiences as ono Of the
really new attractions Of the year,
made good with little difficulty and
will take rank at once as one Of the
most remarkable productions of the
year. AS is well-knOwn Into the
Light" is the feature which Miss
Parry is said to have paid its author
$4,000 in a competitive contest. Il gives
this versatile young woman ample op-
portunitics 20 exert her talents and
furnishes vaudeville patrons with a
genuine novelty atraction-and when
one stops to consider the innumerable
attempts along this line success such
as this particular one is we'll worth
while. Other hits of yesterday were

ham and Miss Randall do splendid
work Gordon Eldrid and Co. In won

and VIII Archie and the Misses War
ner and Madison in The Call Boy
offer a number that is rich in good
comedy. Fritz Haubel and Company in
Examination Day" and McGarvey,
the male prima donna, are both fea-
lures of much merit. Bert Won Klein
and Grace Gibson. late Of THE Motor
Girl" and other productions do some
character roles of different sorts and
sing a number OF songs that win them
hearty applause. The Marcantoni Trio,

Editorial Opinion
Political characterization.
Bridgeport Post.

Bridgeport Post.
When you come to think of it, how
foolish it is in municipal matters to
choose a Mayor Just because he is a
Republican or a Democrat. How much
better and more sensible it would
be to select a chief executive because
he was an able and worthy citizen,
and the people believed he could be
entrusted with the management of a
large corporation like the city.
II might be that the same men un-
der commission form of government
would obtain the positions and the
salaries, but that would not be q ca
lamity as We have good men in Of
fee now. It is the system that is bad.
in that at present we base the desir-
ability of a candidate solely on poll
tics.
A man must vote for his party can
didate for Mayor or be declared a
traitor and renegade. Under the
commission form there would be no
such situation. A man would vote for
a candidate simply on his merits.
There might be men named for Of
flee who would have the backing OF
political machines the same as they
do now, but there would be nothing
to prevent any man becoming a candi-
date and organizing a machine of his
own. By machine we mean body Of
workers who would labor in the in
terests of a particular candidate. -
The benefit would be that the peo-
pie would not be helpless as they are
now. Under the present laws the man
ayers of the political parties get to-
gether and select candidates which
are usually nominated by delegates in
convention assembled. There are no
candidates except those nominated by
these political parties. Under the
commission form the political parties
would have nothing more to say than
anyone, for any man by observing
certain forms of procedure could an
nounce himself a candidate, and any
coterie of people, whether a political
party or not, could launch a candi-
date and work for him.
In this way more power and discre-
tion are given the people and they
are made less dependent upon the po-
litical managers. This does not please
the politicians, and they will find all
sorts Of obstacles to such a plan, but
it would mean political emancipation
for the people.

ARE YOU FAT?

You know you can not stay fat, don't
you? That Is. you cannot be fat and be
in style. The day when a fat woman
was tolerated Is passed. Nowadays all
women must be in proportion or be
ridiculous. This does not mean you
should become skinny, however. You
should not get below the hard flesh
line. All you ought to lose Is the bulky
fat. That done you will find yourself
TO be a well formed and therefore
handsome woman.
Now, how can this be done? BY exer-
cising and dieting? Yes, and no. These
two means will bring some results, but
not easily nor soon. One is very hard
work; the other is torture. Besides,
neither can be depended on to cause a
uniform reduction. They may take off
a fieshy shoulder, for example, and
leave the double chin untouched. What
you need, you see, is something pleas
ant TO take that without injury to
your health will take the fat off uni
formly and quickly, say at the rate Of
a pound a day or so. until Il is all
gone where you want il to 60.
For this purpose nothing is less ex-
pensive, safer or simpler than Mar
mola Prescription Tablets. Inexpen-
sive because one large case, costing rs
cents only. will produce results; safe
because they cause no wrinkles or
stomach trouble, but rather improve
the health and complexion, if any
thing; and simple, because they do all
the work without asking thought. or
effort on the part of the taker. In
short, they are the ANSWER if you
are fat and wish to be thinner. II your
druggist is of the better kind he will
have them. If not. write the licensees,

ELECTION OF SENATORS.

~ TRANCE as il may seem TO those familiar
~ with the conservatism that has surrounded
political and economic matters in Delaware no list
of the killed or injured has been published as the
result of the explosion of Representative Evans's
bomb in the House calling for the election Of
United States Senators by direct vote of the
people.
We should not have been surprised had the walls
crumbled or the pictures of the distinguished
Delawareans who smile or frown from oil paint
ings on the walls of the House tumbled.
Mr.. Evans got ION the job" at an carly date,
and he was in line with the agitation in the Senate
in Washington. The resolution, however. ought
TO pass, for even so staunch party newspaper as
the Dover Republican has proclaimed for the cleo
ton by direct vote, and the Republican is the Bible
of the Kent cohorts However the House has sur
vived the initial shock and will take time to con-
slider il.
The Republican State convention was going
some when it declared for consideration of the
Public Utilities Commission bill, and the Demo-
cratic convention tried to go some when it ad-
vocated an Employers Liability measure.
The resolution offered by Mr.. Evans shows that
there is progressive sentiment in the Della
ware Legislature. Mr. Evans il may he remarked
is one of the good men who came to Delaware
some years ago and engaged in progressive farms
ing And we wish had more of them. Some
times they jolt political serenity, but we need
the jolting.

JUDICIAL REFORM.

q OVERNOR PENNEWlLL suggests that the
~ constitution be amended so that one Judge
shall constitute quorum in some of the courts,
at least in the Court of General Sessions
This is a good suggestion In many other COM
munities one Judge presdes at such criminal trials
and there is not the slightest reason why in prac-
tcally all the criminal cases, except perhaps muir
der trials, one Judge should not be sufficient
In some other cases, although they may not at
first appear important three Judges should sit, in
the granting of liquor licenses for example. Some
time ago there we're whispers of excise board
but that scheme was quickly knocked in the head
There have also been whispers that one Judge
would be sufficient for the license court, but such
a change is neither desirable nor necessary
The granting of liquor licenses is one Of the
most important practical functions of the court
The present method has been far too satisfactory
10 suit some people, those who think the granting
of liquor licenses should be part of the political
machinery of the State. They arc restve, and for
years have been trying to hatch up plan to
change the present admirable method
We do not Of course think that the Governor
has in mind any change in the present method Of
granting liquor licenses in this county. but his
suggesuon refers to the ordinary routine Of Grim

Delawareans have an unusual interest in the
monster batteshp named in honor Of the State,
which few months ago was presented with sill
yer service and other valuable gifts by the resi-

with regret that Delawareans heard of the dis
tressing accident on the battleship yesterday in
which eight heroes of the boiler-room, that inferno
of the naval Dreadnought, we're scalded to death.
The news OF this amentabe accident was told ex-
