college or a university education is some
thing different from what it was years ago. For
merly, and within the easy recollection Of men
not yet old, the ordinary college course led to
a choice Of only several degrees, but now some in
sttutlons have as high as ten or a dozen degrees.
The students pursuing classical course are
in a large minority and the number of the learn

turning out men preparing for scientific and
technical life, engineers of many kinds chemists
and the like who, added TO the actual training
they receive, enjoy the advantages and social op-
portunities which are presumed to go with the
residence Of four years at higher institution of

Young men and young women are more eager

right and left regardless Of reason. calling the
former political associates of its editor all sorts
OF hard names and occasionally venting its spleen
against The Journal because The Journal presum-
ably does not sing loudly in the Republicans
croaking chorus.
n 1t winds up long diatribe against the New
Castle county leaders by saying that il prods The
Journal because il does not speak out as the Re-
publican thinks it should do. And vet in the same
article the Sussex Republican mentions two in

That was progressive measure Then it SAYS
that the Republican majority in the Legislature

Gated. We presume the Republican favored these
measures. How then was The Journal derelict in
its duty in advocating measures for the public

unfortunate il is for the people of the lower coun-
ties that they permit themselves TO be ruled from
Wilmington, but our observation Of politics in
Delaware leads TO believe that the people of

people OF this county.
The trouble with the Republican is that which
affliots many other persons who are working or
profess TO be working for advanced legislation

The opinion of the Judges of the Circuit Court
declaring the DUPONT Powder Company combin-
alton in restraint of trade seems to place the pow
der company in the same class with other big COM
bnations that the Supreme Court has passed upon.
The defendant company can take an appeal to
the Supreme Court but in view of the recent
decisions in other cases affecting alleged trusts
il probable that the opinion of the Circuit Court
would be sustained. There is nothing for the du-

TRAINMEN TALK
OF FULL CREW BILL
Many Railroad Men Believe
They Will be Made
Work Harder

The full crew bill signed by Gov
ernor Tener of Pennsylvania, Monday
evening, and which applies on all
trains running out of that State into
Delaware, was widely discussed in
railroad circles yesterday, especially
by members of the brotherhoods, who
have urged that the railroad com
panies be compelled to properly main
tain their trains.
The Pennsylvania Railroad for
some time has maintained a full crew
of six men on its heavy freight trains,
but during the panic of 1907, when it
was necessary to reduce the operat-
ing expenses wherever possible, the
one brakeman was taken off, leaving
one man to do the work of. two. In
many instances, this extra man was
never replaced, which was one of the
reasons why the brotherhoods urged
that the bill become a law.
In most cases the PHILADELPHIA
and Reading will be compelled to add
another man to it's freight crews.
Many of the crews running out of
Harrisburg over the Lebanon Valley
and the Philadelphia, Harrisburg and
Pittsburg branches, were manned by
five men, but when the law becomes
effective an additional brakeman will
be necessary. Under the law the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company will
in many cases. simply return to its
freight crews what It took off two
wears ago. while on the Reading. IL
will add entirely new and additional
expenses
Railroad men yesterday discussed
what will be required of the men, af-
ter the additional man is supplied.
Many OF the men believe that mem
bers of the various crews will be ask
ed TO stay out on their trains over the
entire run, and that they will be re-
quired to work harder than at pres
ent.
The bill also provides for a full
crew Of five men on passenger trains.
which will prevent the railroads from
cutting the number of men. such as
was practiced on some of the trains
