SUSPECT GIRL OF
OPERATING "FENCE"

Edith Carroll, aged 10, colored. for
merly of Middletown was arrested in
Chester on Monday. The authorities
believe in her arrest they have a
fence. She was given a hearing
yesterday morning before Police Mag
istrate Elliott at Chester on the charge
of stealing a pockeabook containing
Sl2 and papers from Mr.. Turk, who is
member Of the firm of Levy and
Turk, clothing dealers.
The testimony went to show that
the girl who is known also as Edith
Pryor. gave up the money 10 officer
Donaldson.
Later the authorities ascertained
that the Corroll womans room at the
home Of Ida Pierce. 1919 West Front
street, was filled with a wagon load
of various articles Of finery including
numerous pieces of laces, silk skirts,
etc. Several of the smaller articles
we're identified by Mrs. Turk as her
property

property more or less valuable than
property on Sixth street.
The improvements on the land are
assessed either according to a square
or cubic foot measurement of the con-
tents. taking into consideration the
age of the building, its condition. its
sdaptsbility for the uses intended and
any other factors which enter into its
value. The criticism of the owner Of
the property is invited in order to en-
able the assessors to arrive at fair
unit Of valuation. In fact. the as
sessments under this method are usu-
ally made public and serve as 2
means to bring the assessors and
owners together, by which individual
property owners and the citizens gem
orally are educated as to the methods
and processes of assessment AS all
are treated alike and no favoritism is
shown, and each citizen has the op-
portunity to criticize the assessment
at the time it is originally made and
can appeal from the assessment at
any time, II he deems il unfair, it has
resulted elsewhere, and should result
here. in a feeling of confidence aud
satisfaction that the assessments
would be as just and fair as the ma
ture Of the subject, and surrounding
conditions and circumstances will per-
init. These assessments are revised
annually. Where property tends to
increase quickly in value. assessments
are raised. Where values tend to de-
crease In certain sections of the city
or on certain streets, there is a de-
crease in assessments. These in
creases or decreases are not on in
dividual properties, but on whole
streets or sections. There can be no
favoritism shown in this method 20
that one man is assessed full value,
and his next door neighbor with an
equally valuable property is assess
ed at less than full value
This new assessment would prob
ably decrease assessments in the old
er part of the city on the east side and
would probably increase assessments
in the northwestern section of the
city.
On the whole, my opinion would be
that the total assessment would be
Increased, thus resulting in a gain
in tax receipts. and their prompt coll
lection should prevent future deficits.
Yours very truly.

TAFT BEATEN IN OHIO.

A LII the primary election that comes from
"A Ohio today indicates that President Taft has
been defeated in his home State by Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt
II goes without saying that if tho complete returns
bear out those indications the result the struggle
that State the the President yet
suffered or that he possibly could have suffered
President Taft and his friends were confident that
the Republican In Ohio would resent the at
tacks made upon him by Colonel Roosevelt and that
they would give 10 him hattering vote OF confidence
Everything seems indicate that far from doing So
those Republicans have set upon the President and
his administration the seal Of their dsapprove and
that they have turned toward Colonel Roosevelt with
what to the Taft men, is stunning effectiveness
We now probably shall have the anomalous political
situation Of Ohio candidate going into national
convention backed by New York State delegation,
and a New York candidate going into that same ma
tional convention backed by an Ohio delegation.
Until complete returns have been received from
Ohio however it scarcely is safe predict just what

The Senate committee that has investigated the cleo
ton of Senator Lorimer in Illinois has made
jority report generating him from the charges of
bribery that had been made against him. Those
bers Of the committee who join that report say they
convinced firmly that vote obtained by the
Senator by bribery and that whatever money was paid
TO White, Beckemeyer Link Holtslaw or any other
person not paid by anyone Mr. Lorimers behalf
TO obtain votes for him for United states Senator.
Those members of the committee add that there is
proof that Edward Hines anyone else raised

Senator Lorimer and assert that his election the
result of logical political conditions existing in Illinois
and was free from corrupt practices. The minority
members made report that corrupt practices and
methods had been revealed Senator Lormer will re-

attack the integrity of tho Illinois Senator.

STARTLING DISCLOSURE
IN THE NEW CHARTER

To The Editor of THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Sir: In my last letter before being
called out of the city, promised
later TO discuss other things in the
proposed charter. Many have ex-
pressed their surprise upon learning
that. officials would be authorized 90
vote themselves any amount of sal
ary under the proposed charter (Sec.
13), which says officers shall be paid
mot less than three hundred" zone
thousand" three thousand" etc. in
stead Of fixing the exact amount. A
still more startling disclosure will
appear from considering the fact that
not only are officers authorized to vote
themselves any amount OF money by
way of salaries, but the proposed
charter takes away the power of the
mayor TO veot Ordinances appropriate
ing money" Read Sec. 25. The
Mayor now has this power. Why take
away this power from the peoples re-
preventative? We have abundant evil
dence of how subject to the influence
of those holding special privileges
city councils are. as well as legisla-
lures. Special interests seem to be
able to get anything that they want. Is
1t right, is it for the city's interest TO
make it still easier to get bills
through the city council? Is the
mayor so dangerous a person when
armed with a veto in the city. inter-
est, that he must be effectively bound
and muzzled? In voting for the pro-
posed charter we are voting away the
last. remnant of the peoples rights.
We reduce the mayors power TO mere
form. We take away his scepter. and
put in his hand a hollow reed. If un-
scrupulous men should get into office
under the proposed charter, how un-
restrained they would be where the
mayors duty was simply TO make
Fourth Of July speeches, preside az
state dinners. and receive roses from
the ladies And witness, for this hol-
low office THE Mayor shall be paid
NOT less than one thousand dollars an
nuallyl" If the office Of the Mayor IS

no compensation.
Does it need any argument TO make
II appear that a Mayor without power
to veto ordinances appropriating
money has no influence for good? that
then he becomes even less than
figure-head?
1t cannot he denied that the peoples
representative Is by the proposed
charter deprived of the power to veto
ordinances appropriating money. To
make the deprivation Of power sure.
the taking away of all power to veto
appropriations Of money is repeated
in Sec. 80. II is clear. then. that II Is
the intention of the charter to deprive
the peoples representative Of all
power TO check extravaganza, and
practically to deprive the city from
having even delegated power.
In my next letter I will show that
Sec. III, giving the Controller
power TO prevent violations of law"
will be totally ineffective in prevent
ing abuse of mower.
Respectfully.

The Wilmington Board Of Health has acted wisely
in letting TO the lowest bidders the garbage removal
thereby saving TO the city than S15-
600 The contracts were let under conditions which
will protect the city If the high bidders who received
the contracts from the Democratic Board Of Health
succeed in winning the fight they have in
court to compel recognition Of those contracts The
city officials seemingly arc confident they will win
in the litigation begun by the high bidders. If that
expectation be realized, it will mean the saving of
thousands of dollars to the taxpayers.
