IT is growing rapidly in the minds
of the parents and the people gen.
orally, that there is urgent need for
reform in the school methods of
Delaware, and that the present time
is the time to start the effort. With
this in view meetings are being
held all over the State, and the
needs of the school system discussed
from intelligent stand points. One
of the most encouraging phases of
the situation, is the fact that the
women are getting interested, and
very properly they should be, for it
is through public school education
that the women of this great land
will find advancement for them
selves and those in whom they have
the greatest interest. At a public
meeting held in Dover last week
under the auspices of the Women's s
Of Clubs, there were in
ideas expressed as to both
needs and the ways to get the
needs complied with. Superinten-
lent Carroll, of Kent County, in
his remarks at that meeting seems
% realize that rural consolidation of
schools will solve many of the rural
ichool troubles, but even that will

Of rubber tires. 1t appears feasible

tical demonstration in actual service

ciples involved. It would be we'll
for an invention of this particular
character to be kept out Of the hands

lature will visit Delaware College
and inspect the experimental farm
connected Herewith. The Charter
of the College will expire by linn
itation on April r2th next, and it is
up to the Legislators to frame and
enact a new Charter. In view OF
the fact that much criticism has
been made of Delaware College af-
fairs, and the management of the
experimental farm, the visit to-day
will be, or at least should be preg-
nant in results favorable to a lib
eral future. The best results to Del

Ear visit Last TUESDAY bv tbe

THE visit last Tuesday by the
Legislature to the State College for
Colored Students, was educational
to the members who were made to

county provide good roads to get to
and from the schools. He advocated
higher educationsfor our girls, and
pointed out the fact that when a girl
reaches the twelfth grade in the pub
lie schools. her further education
so far as Delaware is concerned
from the free educational stand
point, has reached its end she
may go further, but her parents
must pay for it in ready cash. But
this only applies to the white girls,
for the colored girls have the ad-
vantage of the State College for
colored people at which to finish
their education. His suggestion that
the State give special appropria-
tion to girls to attend college, just
as is now given to limited num-
Der to attend normal schools in other
States, borders on the paterHal side
of government, and we doubt if the
idea would work out in fact, or be
satisfactory to either side of the con-
tract but he was quite right when
he asserted that women are entitled
to exactly the same educational ad-
vantages as men and should demand
it at the hands of the Legislature
but not in the form of co-education
at Delaware College, where the plan
formerly prevailed and the memory
of its failure is not yet faded from
the minds of our people. There
was unanimous opinion that the
method of raising school money on
rental values is unfair and operates
against the further advancement of
the schools. The State loses more
each year under the present tax sys-
TEN than the amount of the present
taxes. when the lost opportunities
are considered. The subject Of tax
alton scented to be full of interest

TIE regulation of the sale of
liquor in Delaware has rested for
ten or more years with the judiciary,
and in line with the power conferred
upon the judges, some very proper
rules have been given the force Of
law, and are working bene6cially
to the people and especially to the
liquor retailers themselves. The
first of these regulations by rule of
the Judiciary, taken in rank of i'm
portance to effect, is the closing
hour of eleven o'clock p. m which
stops effectively the practice of
keeping the bar rooms in New
Castle County and the City of Will
open after that hour;
which has been found to be of
benefit in all parts of the
city especially. Another rule is
that there shall be no more "back
rooms &. to the bars where drinks
can be served, etc. With the aboli-
ton Of the "bOttle law" and the en-
forcement of these regulations as
laid down by the judges, the worst
of the evil effects of the sale of
liquor legally will have been
brought under control.

THE purchase of large tract oi
land from Harrington Messick,
near Bridgeville, by the Delaware
Apple Company this week for fifty
thousand dollars, commits that COM
pany to a proposition which must
have the effect to revolutionize the
fruit industry of Sussex County,
and also act as an object lesson to
hundreds of farmers, who are not
keeping in touch with the age of
advanced ideas along the lines of
new methods in fruit production.
When ten OF twenty thousand ap-
pie trees are growing before the eyes
of the people, and the methods of
cultivation, of the process spray
ing, of practical pruning Of the tree,
and above all, the honest methods
of packing in either boxes or bar
rels, are shown, and the people rea-
lie exactly what the results from
such business bring, then will the
lands of lower Delaware bound to
the prices of the lands in the apple
regions of the far west. where
from one thousand to two thousand
dollars for land set in producing
apple trees are not of infrequent
sight. We believe that the future
Of this peninsula is to be closely
allied to the apple crop that it will
require good business sense and
honest work and marketing to
bring this about, but that it will
come. 1t may be that
he growers will have to diversity |
wen in this crop, aud that early
-arieties and late varieties will have
o form the basis of the orchard
,lans but, above this all looms the
for cold storage plants of
apacity to hold the crop from mid
ummer, if need be until the mar
,ets demand our orchard products

carcity of labor will continue to be

Conditions Indicate Large Crop.

Washington. Aug. 3.-With con-
tinued assurance that the 1910-'11
cotton crop of the United States will
be the greatest yield in the history
of the country in their speculation as
to total value. Should the staple this
year sell at the same price it did in
1910, the value of the crop would be
approximately s1,O00,063,000, ex-
ceeding the record breaking cotton
crop value over last year by more
than $1S0,000,000.
Further estimates to-day from the
governments official figure of S9.1
per cent. of normal for the condi-
ton of the growing crop on July 25,
indicate that the crop will be 7,046,-
100000 pounds, or 14,741,641 bales
of Ats pounds net weight. This
would surpass the record cotton pro-
duction of the year of 1909 by more
than 100000 bales.
If the crop this year sells at 11.5
cents a pound, the average price for
the last five years, it's value would
be about s2O,0O0,o00 below last
years great value record.

CAN NOT LOCATE SPRADLEY.
Nephew, Who Was Flogged, Not
Found in Augusta.

Augusta, Aug. 4.-Close investi-
CATION in Augusta does not bring Co.
lumbus Spradley, nephew of Mrs.
Spradley, to light in this city. Sprad-
ley, who is a young man, about %
years old, appears to be very we'll
known throughout this section. Re-
ports received here from Monetta
this afternoon were to the effect that
he had left that community for Au-
gusta, after being fogged by the
mob. Tonight the information is to
the effect that it is not known
whether Spradley left for Augusta or
whether he was so severely whipped
that he had wandered off into the
swamps somewhere, and is either in
a semi-conscious condition or is dead.
The Aiken county officers have not
returned to that place from the
scene of the whipping, nor has any
information been received from them
at 10 O'Clock, but the impression ex-
lists in Aiken that young Spradley did
not come toward Augusta. The re-
port that Mrs. Spradley, the aunt,
had been roughly handled by the
mob, is denied tonight, and the
statement is that she died Of fright,
after seeing her nephew flogged.

WATER PROBLEM SOLVED.
A Generous Supply is Now Flowing
Through Charlotte Mains.

Charlotte, N. c., Aug. 2.-Char
lotte finally has conquered the forces
of nature and by artificial mean:
solved the water supply problem
Tonight a generous supply of pure
water is flowing through the mains
the sewerage system is complete and
the means of fire protection are more
adequate than before the water was
shut off last Friday.
The big reservoir, holding 2,000,'
600 gallons, is full; Stewards creek
is flowing 100000 gallons in the set
tling basin, while water trains from
the Catawba, on regular schedule
augmented by the supply from neigh
boring towns, brings the daily sup
ply from outside sources to nearly
100000 gallons a day.
Connection was made to-day with
Briar creek, which will furnish nearly
1000, 900 gallons daily and this will
be held in reserve in the event of con-
tinued drought. Tank cars filled to
the brim also have been distributed
on the railroad lines which encom-
pass the city for the use of fire
steamers.
Fifty extra tank cars are ready If
needed in emergency to augment, the
already adequate supply.
Reports from outlying points indi-
cate little improvement so far as
crops are concerned, nor in the pros
poets of cities and towns that are
facing water problems.
No rain has fallen since the light
showers of Monday but atmospheric
conditions, according to the weather
bureau, promise relief for the entire
section.

What Tillman Has Drawn.

Washington, August 2.-The an.
nouncement made in South Carolina
a day or two ago by John H. Swear
ingen, State superintendent of/edu-
cation, who is nephew of Senator
B. R. Tillman, that the latter would
stand for another term in the senate
after his present one has expired,
has led to discussion as to what he
will draw from the government pro-
vided he lives out the two years he
yet has to serve and also six years in
addition full term.
Senator Tillman's present commits
sion will expire March 3, 1913. Six
years added to that would make it
net Senator Tillman, at $1,000 year
salary, an even 100000. But this
would not be all. He would, in addi-
ton, draw $125 a year for station
cry, which would net him a total OF
$1,000 for this purpose in eight
years. Then his mileage cents
for each mile travelled coming to
Washington and returning to his
home-would be about 5000 each
session. Calculating the distance
from Washington to Trenton at 800
miles, eight years would be $1,000.
This would make a grand total of
$62,280 for eight years, from which
there would have to be deducted in
case Senator Tillman should live out
the eight years-or until 1919-and
should come to Washington once
during each of the sessions-the
amount of his actual railroad fare
here, which would amount to about
$40 each session. This amount null
tiplied eight times would make $500,
which would have to be deducted
from the gross amount of S62,6OO
Leaving net balance Of $62,2SO,
which the South Carolina senator
will draw for the next eight years If
he is reelected and lives out his term.
For the 16 years which he has al
ready served he has drawn approx
mately s124,SO0 and if this is added
to s62,2S0 it will give total OF
$1S7,080, which Senator Tillman will
have drawn for his service to South
Carolina in the senate, against which
there is an Offset of about 5000
during the years when the pay of
senators was $4,000 year. This
still leaves something like $4,000
to Senator Tillman's bank account.
