coon AND a PROCRESsIvE CITY.

q ONE persons interested in the civic and SOC
- ial welfare of Wilmington and Delaware have
made the point that il is not so much large city
as good city, fine place to live in that we want.
In other words they think If factory inspector
laws and other so-oalled labor legislation should
keep manufacturers away the harm would not
be so great because we should have city with
enlightened laws, a city which is pleasant place.
Admitting this as true, may we not say that
II is possible more than possible, TO have both a
growing city and an enlightened city? We think
SO. At any rate. we shall try to have It So
Speaking from a material point of view, city
must either stand still, which really means going
backward. or it must 60 forward There is hardly
a middle ground. The expenses Of city go on.
They climb upward The city must therefore
grow in material wealth. in industries, 10
meet this expense, If for no other reason. We
should labor to convince people that Wilmington
is a good place for factories, and we should labor
10 have laws made in the spirit of the times fair
laws and just laws so that people living in Della
ware, in Wilmington shall as far as can be have
happy lives

REPAIR OF ROADS.

e, ONE Of our good citizens are agtated about
- the condition of our county roads. They
think that many of the roads throughout the
county are not kept in so good a condition as
they should be- They think the county has spent
a large sum of money for good roads and is spend
ing more for them, and they point out that unless
the roads are preserved in good condition, con-
stantly repaired, the money will be wasted True,
this is.
Our roads should be constantly repaired Moth
