New Auto Numbers Arrive.

The new auto numbers issued by the
secretary of state commenced to arrive
in Cresco last Saturday. Considerable
complaint as to their cheap appearance
and color are made by motorists over
the state. but one of the secretary's
deputies explains the matter as fol.
lows: Il
"The samples upon which the con-
tract was let we're darker blue, max
ing much better looking number
plate.
1.-The company holding the contracts
has experienced lot of trouble in
making the plates. A fire destroyed
thousands of the plates in the plant.
The first firing was not good, which,
it is stated. accounts for the pale shade
of blue We are informed that coming
shipments of plates are much darker
blue and will be more acceptable"
1t is not anticipated that any of the
motorists will register any strenuous
kicks against the new numbers, mainly
because new color will be had after
the first of the year. The new law re-
quires new color on the number
plates each year and the 1912 numbers
will be given out on or before Jan. I,
1912.

ADVERTISE THE STATE.

ONE of the excellent advertising talks by Mr.
- Freeman in the Philadelphia North American
he calls attention to the statement of President
Butler, of Columbia University, in an address be-
fore the Sphinx Club, of New York in which he
attributed the high cost of living to the gravita-
tion of the population to the big centers-the
cities
Despite the somewhat desultory effort recently
made TO check this flow of population from the
country districts to the cities it goes on, but
there is no good reason why the efforts to cause
a movement to the country should not be con-
tinued
Mr. Freeman remarks that the thought occurred
to him that many railroad companies are ad
vertising to develop the country along the lines
of their roads, why wouldn't it be good for State
authorities to appropriate money for advertising
purposes and let the people know the advantages
of their State for farming purposes and for in
dustries of all kinds?
There has been very small increase in the
population of such States as Iowa and Kentucky,
and Mr. Freeman thinks these States should ad-
vertise. And so ought Others
The idea expressed by Mr.. Freeman is not
new, but it has caught the attention of some of
the progressive men of Delaware, and an effort
will be made TO have Delaware do something to-
wards advertising her resources in order to secure
an increase in population, especially in the rural
regions.
The Delmar News, if we remember correctly
has had considerable to say on the subject In
fact the News urged that advertising the State
should be made part of the program of the
Republican State Convention.
Delaware and its manifold advantages should
be more widely known than they arc. Some of
the western cities and States spend large sums in
advertising and the results are apparent in the
great increase in the population of the States
which pursue this course. Kent and Sussex coun-
ties and rural New Castle could sustain much
greater population than they do. This is becoming
an age of small farms and intensive cultivation
and the farms in the rural districts would be
much better if they we're divided
During the past many newcomers have made
their homes in Delaware, and most Of them have
become useful and enterprisng citizens. They
are found in the legislative halls, they are as a
rule progressive men, they are some of our best
farmers and altogether they are a benefit to the
community. We want more of them and there
is plenty of room for them. The State should go
after them by advertising and it would repay
the State in the end.

THE DOVER wRANGLE.

G ONE of the Democrats are trying TO make
~ capital out of the wrangle that has been
going on in Dover One of them thinks bribery
at the elections had something TO do with it and
other far-fetched reasons are given. The theory
is advanced that the presence of Mr.. John E. Ad-
dicks let loose a varied assortment of deadlock
germs and microbes which have afflicted the men,
bers.
But we think the situation is due to a very de-
finite opinion on the partof the New Castle county
members that New Castle county should have the
Speaker Of the House in the person of Mr.. Moore
"a very competent member. There is no valid
\ ason why this place should not 60 TO New Castle

Better showing at the election than did Kent
t1~-gssex and.itis provoking that the lower
counties should combine against New Castle
If New Castle county got the Speaker OF the
House it would be willing, or should be willing,
that the lower counties should have the President
of the Senate, but the trouble seems to be that
Senator Drexler has got in wrong Perhaps
the New Castle men would be willing for any
Senator other than Mr. Drexler to mold the place,
but the Senator thinks he himself is the one
and he has been holding out.
1t is perhaps superluous to say that to the Or
binary man il looks as If there were a great deal
Of useless pickering. One whisper is that the
railroad influences are against Senator DreXler,
but this is not tenable in view of
the attitude of Senators Corbit and Finn, who are
not regarded as railroad men,
Senator Drexler too much in evidence to
suit some At the last session of the Legislature
he caused a rafting of dry bones by his stand for
progressive legislation and it is rather pity that
he should have placed himself in a position of
being out of harmony with the other Republican
members of the Senate. He certainly ought to
be able to work with Senators Corbit and Finn
and others of that character and there should be
no split among the forces that arc allied with
progressive legislation. Both Senator Corbit and
Finn are among the best members of the Legis-
lature who have seen service in the past.
All the Senators OF progressive turn of mind
should be found working in harmony, for in that
way only can the shackles which have bound the
Senate to the special interests in the past be
broken.

MAKING A CHARTER.

ID ROBABLY on no subject has there been
n more of diversity of views than on the
Civic Associations scheme for new charter. The
Every Evening thinks the association too slow,
and there is objection to the plan for having the
Governor and the Mayor appoint the commits
sioners,
Mr. Monck one OF the speakers, thought that
the commission should be elected, but doubt
whether that would be satisfactory. 1t seems to
us better that the association itself should name
a commission although it is argued that the
sociation as a body has no official standing.
If the Governor and the Mayor appointed the
commissioners, at once a suspicion would lodge
in the minds of many that the work OF the as
socaton being contaminated by partisan pol
itios. And yet the Governor has shown consider
able broadmindedness in speaking of the needs
OF Wmington's city government.
The danger from such appointments, it seems
TO us would be that there might be too much
political consulting on the part of the Governor
and the Mayor.
There is strong possibility that the Civic AS
socaton will develop some new blood" Ger
tainly there is plenty of latent material which if
used in Wilmington, would be of advantage. Some
of these persons should be placed on charter

GUARANTEE OF BANK DEPOSITS.

R UNANIMOUS decision, the Supreme Court
- brushed aside the objections TO the law
guaranteeing bank deposits in certain western
States Justice Holmes stated the case plainly
when he declared: when the Oklahoma Legis-
lsture declares by implication that free banking
is public danger, and that incorporation inspeo-
ton and the above described cooperation are
necessary safeguards, this court certainly cannot
see where it is wrong"
The decision of that court will almost surely be
followed by an agitation in other States for the
absolute safeguarding Of money deposited in
banks During the last campaign columns of
mysterious and occult reasons, which no one but
some lawyers and possibly few bankers could
understand, were advanced against the proposition
TO guarantee deposits but the Supreme Court
brushes these views aside and tosses them into
the scrap heap where they properly belong.
