The ringing of the fire bell Satur-
day night because a fire happened to
be several miles in the country was
all wrong and Council should see to
it that it does not occur again with
out an example being made of the
case. Probably the party who gave
the alarm meant well and when it
comes to lending helping hand to
a farmer in such trouble, citizens
individually speaking, should not be
found wanting. But this does not
necessitate stirring mp the town and
calling out the Fire Company, when
the fire is so far beyond town limits.
Discretion needs to be used in such
matters and laws passed that will
make it a misdelneanor and offense
for giving the general alarm wher
there is no necessity for doing Sc.

We are glad TO be corrected for
our statement with respect to the
Delaware law regulating automobiles
and other motor vehicles. There is
already a stringent law with respect
to allowing Juveniles to run cars.
Section of the law distinctly says
No person, except as provided for
non-residents in Section 2, shall
operate a motor vehicle other than
a motor cycle, upon the streets,
roads, turnpikes or highways of this
State unless he has first obtained
from the Secretary of State license.
No license shall be issued to nor
shall any motor vehicle be operated
by any person under sitxeen years
of age. Applications for license
shall be made in writing upon a
blank furnished by the Secretary of
State, and shall contain the name of
the applicant his place of residence.
including city or town, street and
number and his postoffice address and
shall state that he is over sixteen
years of age and is qualified to

tion. Upon receipt of the applica-
tion ard a fee of SIS. 90 the Secretary

There are vast numbers of people
wno believe that raw wool ought to
be put on the free list at once, and
chat the manufacturers of wool such
as ordinary clothing (which in the
bills as passed are reduced from an
average rate of 80 to an average of
4s) ought to be admitted from
abroad at rate much lower that the
one agreed upon by Congress. But,
on the other hand, there are vast
numbers of people who think that
the sheep-raising and wool growing
interests Of the country have a right
to the continuance, for some years
at least, of moderate protective
tariff; and thet the labor employed
in wooden manufactures is further
entitled to some protection. The
Payne-Aldrich bill not merely recog-
nized the claims of those who, wished
protection, but kept the rates sxces-
sively high. The new bill sent, to

NEW BANK BUILDINGS GOING UP

Dover and CrisfieId Setting The Pace
For Some Modern Structures
This appears to be the year for
the construction of new banking
houses of beautiful and ornate types
on the peninsula. Two are now
under construction in Dover--the
First National Bank and the Peoples
Guarantee and Trust Company-and
the marble base for the former was
completed this week. The contract
for fine new bank at Crisfeld has
been awarded to H. B. Pritchett OF
PocOmoke City, who has erected g
number of new banks on the Eastern
Shore. The counters and interior
trim of this latter fine bank will be
of marble and it will be one of the
most costly on the peninsula.

Pertinent to the subject of BOule-
ward, over which the citizens of
Delaware have become aroused as to
no project in recent years, the Mil
ford Chronicle says: elf those who
are opposing the building of the new
boulevard by General Dupont could
look backwards to the time when the
Delaware railroad was being located,
and recall the opposition to its build
ing close to the then large and pros
porous towns located at the head of
navigation, they would surely rec
ognize the similarity of their present
opposition to the mistaken opinions
OF sixty years ago, which caused the
Delaware railroad to be huilt in
what was then known as the
forest and which has really
grownup at the expense of the towns,
whose citizens then discouraged its
passing through or near to them.
This will be the same condition that
would follow the driving of the new
boulevard away from the central
part of Delaware by those who either
can not or will not see the advanta-
ges which will accrue to that part of
the State where it passes though.
Just for one moment let US suppose
that the boulevard is huilt along the
sidelaA4 Sussex county, and
that a spur line is built down the
eastern side of the same county,
what would be the result of even
that situation? The attraction of
thousands of people to the advantages
of Delaware would not be lost, but
the benefit of the travel to and from
points below the Delaware boundary
would be lost to the eastern part of
the Sussex county, while the travel
of tourists to and from Rehoboth
would be lost to the western side or
even the central part of the county.
We believe in one boulevard down
the center of the county to the
Maryland line, and by its location al
such central part as will approach
the county seat, the best interests
of all the people and the State al
large bill be served.
cit is natural for there to bc
kickers. There would he objectors t.
any improvement or benefit of pub
lie nature, bat it is for those wht
think of what the future may -hav,
in store to council and urge what i
for the best interests OF the publ
at large, and not the narrow vie1
of an individual who sees nothing
beyond his own personal interest, o
mayhaps, who may be blinded by
narrow partisan view as the result Q
the personal spite of one or OF thos
whom he may regard as politics
