CHTLDREN'S DAY
AT THE SPRINGS

Both little people and big people
will find events Of more than ordinary
Importance to interest them at Bran
DIVINE Springs Park this week. The
children will be interested in the an
nual observance of Children's Day on
Wednesday and the grown up will be
anxious to see the presentation Of
Princess Bonnie" by the Manhattan
Opera Company The public has seen
some good opera this season at the
park theatre, but this is counted one
Of the best Of modern operas and il
will be particularly interesting to
Wilmingtonians because il is the work
Of Willard Spencer a former well
known Wilmingtonian.
Children's day will be featured by a
parade Of several thousand children
The children will meet shortly after
II o'clock at the bridge over the lake
and form the line Of parade and
headed by band will march down
the boardwalk. Only the children who
take part in the parade will be given
the souvenirs and the tickets which
will entitle them to free admission
to all Of the amusements Later the
voting contest will be decided. There
will be a fine watch for the girl and
also the boy receiving the highest
number of votes in the popularity
contest.

PRISON REFORM.

0UT Of all the hubbub and sensation and lime
~ light that have surrounded the doings of the
Ardenitcs and their spectacular commitment TO
the county workhouse, il is probable that some
good will come, reform in certain meth
DDS at the workhouse.
Due allowance should be made for the over
drawn assertions of Mr. Sinclair about the work
house and he said in his letter OF Saturday
there arc many things deserving OF commenda-
ton. But the unfortunate part OF IT is that an
impression has gone abroad far and vide that
the workhouse of this county is medieval sort
of institution, far behind the prisons OF other
states
For example, newspaper that ought to be
more familiar with Delaware, the Philadelphia
Evening Bulletin, says the jails OF this state have
long been cause of disgrace and scandal This
statement is untrue. Men familiar with our county
workhouse and with other prisons know that on
the whole few in this country surpass IT, Certainly
there is no institution that is, generally speaking
better than the New Castle County Workhouse
within the range OF the Bulletins vision.
New Castle county spent thousands OF dollars
for the workhouse and secured the best talent OBJ
tainahle in its planning and building. II has been
held up in praise TO other communities by the
ss builders in other states.
Most OF the criticisms that Mr. Sinclair makes
have been more or less discussed by the people OF
the state. 1t has been admitted that improvements
could be made. The question of tuberculosis and
the food supplied and the present system OF sweat
shop work have been discussed before, not so viv-
idly, or under such circumstances as have sur
rounded Mr.. Sinclar'S discussion.
The New Castle County Workhouse has superb
location in perhaps the heathest part of Della
ware. Its trustees embrace some of our most re-
putable men, There is no doubt that they will give
due consideration to the complaints.
The Journal has often remarked that a scheme
Of employing the prisoners the county roads
instead Of inside the Jail walls might be better
We do not say that there is no good ground
for criticism, that the regime of the workhouse
could not be better but prison reform for some
years has been live topic and the conduct ol
affairs at our workhouse is probably better
than the average in other institutions. But thai
is not saying that a consideration Of plans for i'm
provement are unnecessary and would not accom-
plish good

THOuGHTs ABOuT ARDEN.

RTANY visitors to Arden, who did not know very
l. much about the place before the Brown dis
turbance, have been impressed with the possibilities
of delightful community life Arden is finely To-
Gated, and every one there seems to be enjoying
good health. The population is cosmopolitan.
There are said to be but two so-caed philosophi-
cal anarchists in the community, and with their
strange and impractical notions they have made
most of the trouble
II would be impossible for any community 10

put into effect One Of the Ardenites said that he
was present at an anarchists meeting" at which
Brown objected to ruling Of the chairman and
declared that under anarchy and freedom as he
considered it, there should be no such thing as a
chairman. 1t may be readily seen that anarchy

Bakuninism and Proudhonism is. Even Arden
could not stand that for long.
Although Arden has been termed Single Tax
colony, all kinds Of persons there who do not
believe in any of the doctrines which most folks
think prevalent in the community. One man,
highly intelligent said that he Philadelphia

he lives in Arden because of the beauty of the
place and his love Of hearing discussions. Others
are there, many of them women, because the life

The Socialists at Arden have taken the proper
couse-that OF permitting the Single Takers to
conduct the village in reasonable manner with
out making trouble merely for the sake of trouble.
The Socialist chairman Of the meeting Thursday
night while remarking that in his opinion the Sin
gle Tax experiment intended TO prove the single
tax a specific for industrial ills would undoubtedly
prove a failure, added that there we're so many
good things about the colony that he and others

/ Arden calls to the attention of Delaware the
possibilities of general community life. In many
parts of the state there sites on which delight

sons could enjoy discussions and entertainment

community of this kind in this part of the coun-

as rule are sending their sons to agricultural
colleges The Dover Deawarean remarks that
there is an over supply of engineers and technical

reason for the small number of students taking the

strongest kind of competition is on
here between buyers of tomatoes. A
big Baltimore firm Of Gamers has
agents here. and with those Of the
local people, are making things live
ly, and run the price up to Al 3-4
cents a basket
The Gamers Association fixed the
price at twenty cents. but without
any idea of such competition. Pur-
chases we're not made early in the
season, although farmers agreed to
raise tomatoes at nine dollars per
case Twenty-Five baskets will make
a ton. and at this rate the farmers
are getting fourteen dollars.
Il is said that the market is very

Oklahoma in advocating a system Of
recalls for the Judges Of the Supreme

Courts Ia verging very close to the

power TO retire Judges by simple
resolution at any time is to place IN

Under the Owen scheme the entire
