An illustration of man devotng himself to the
service of his country without thought of pecun-
iary reward adequate to the services rendered or
what he might earn in private vocation is fur
nished by the will of the late Justice Harlan of
the Supreme Court The entire estate Of Justice
Harlan amounts to a trHe more than Sl3000
hardly single fee for some of the big lawyers in
his class. The estate consists of personal property
valued at $780, life insurance for $1,000 and an
arrear of salary due from the government of
S4S6.il. Although it is right to hold up Justice
Harlan as an example of a man devoted to duty
the fact that during his long years of service he
was unable to accumulate more than compara
lively speaking, small sum is a reflection upon
the country that commanded his unselfsh services
for so long period.

HARVEY AND WILSON.

TN HIS political life Governor Woodrow Wilson
J. of New Jersey has shown considerable orig
Inality and, as some might say, peculiarities. In
way he has cut out for himself path. His
break with the New Jersey Democratic machine
was rather sensational and against the advice of
some of his warmest friends, who we're inclined
TO think that he rode rough shod over those who
had put him into public life. But on the other
hand Former Senator Smith and his friends had
ample warning from Wilson what course he
should pursue if he entered politics. The Smith
coterie evidently did not take Mr. Wilson at his
word. They will know better next time
The Governor has now broken with Colonel
George Harvey Of Harper's Weekly, who for
months and years has been a persistent and con-
sistent boomer of Dr. Wilson Not a week passed
that Harpers did not have something laudatory
about him. Even when it became evident TO those
who had followed the career of DR.. Wilson that
Wall street would soon break with him, and even
after the break came, Harper's Weekly stood
staunchly by the Governor.
Now il seems that the Governor fearing that
Colonel Harvey's advocacy of him would do more
harm than good in the west, requested the Colonel
to withdraw his support, and it was done, but not
automatically. There was no slow cooling off,
such course as a diplomatic political leader
might have urged, but there was a sudden, abrupt
stop, like dull thud. Colonel Harvey has liter
ally granted the Governors request
There was ample evidence, however, that Wall
street was not for Wilson. The chief organ of
the interests has been grinding its loudest notes
against the Governor He has been attacked on
every occasion, but, one of the Brooklyn papers
remarks, the men who want to kill Governor Will
sons political aspirations do not know how to do
the job.

ELECTION OF SENATORS.

n HERE may be many valid objections to the
i election of United States Senators by the
people, but Mr. Josiah wolcott, deputy attorney
general and regarded as one of the coming lead
ers of his party, offered objections which will not
be received with much favor by many of his
friends
Mr. Wolcott thinks that Democrats of Delaware
should not support popular elections, one reason
being that they would lose point of presumed
advantage. 1t is true that under the district sys-
TEN of the state it is possible for party TO
carry Delaware by large majority and yet fail
TO win the Legislature.
A great majority which the Republicans might
get in the Seventh ward of this city counts no
more in the lower house of the Legislature than
a majority of FIVE or six that the Democrats might
get in a small district. Ii has never happened
that the party which won a general election failed
10 carry the Legislature but il is likely TO happen
at any time.
Those who are advocating the election of Sena-
tors by direct vote or rather primaries at which
the voters could express their choice for Senator,
think that this method would represent the will
of the people and such representation is what is
being clamored for today
Mr. Wocotts reason for opposition on the
point of political advantage for the Democrats
under the present arrangements savors of techni-
calities and manipulation, willingness not to
abide by majority rule. We should not be sur
prised il some of the radical Democrats would op-
pose Mr. Wolcott for this very reason.

King Gustave of Sweden is firm believer in
equal suffrage and thinks that women should be
placed on the same political footing as men in his
country. Under the present law every male citi-
zen of Sweden who is under no legal disability
has the right to vote for members of the Rigsdag
or second chamber. In his speech from the throne
the other day the King urged that women should
have the same right, and bill will be introduced
into the parliament granting them suffrage. The
Swedish suifragists have got what they were after
without the use of militant tactics such Mrs.
Pankhurst and her followers think necessary in
England.

CHRISTIAN CONVERSION.

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
attended large revival meeting at a
church in this city last evening, and
was surprised to hear the pastor make
the extraordinary and presumptuous
statement, that there were many sin
ners present who should be kneeling
at the altar, instead of sitting in the
body of the hall.
This statement was made by him
before the meeting had commenced.
People will be told next that they must
enter a certain church upon their
knees.
Surely those who We're sinners in
the estimation of the reverend gentle
man, could turn with all their heart
to Jesus Christ in the body Of the
hall, and have that faith which would
show itself in good works, without
being almost ordered to march up to
the altar $50 called, and to kneel be-
fore the pastor and a number Of pro-
Tossing Christians who were standing
there like sentinels to watch their
conversion.
/ fear it often happens that those
who pray and sing around the sinner
at the altar, constitute themselves as
judge and jury to try the penitent,
and if he or she does not give them
satisfaction. sentence of condemnation
is passed, and the adjudged sinners
life is made an intolerable misery to
him, or to her. until he or she comes
back to the altar again; and then a
respite is granted. AS a matter OF
fact many weak brothers and sisters
are caused to backslide by backbiting
slandering tongues.
Furthermore, these people appear q
teach that sinners who have come tC
the altar and have obtained the new
birth, if they stumble or make a mis-.
take, must come back to the altar to be
converted again; thereby implying
that sinner can be born twice, thrice
etc, which reduces the thing to re-
ductio ad absurdum.
1t seems that the age of ecclesiasti
cal presumption and tyranny has no
passed yet.
Truly yours.

Every advertiser knows that no competitor
of his can secure better rate for an equal
amount of space in THE EVENING JOUR-
NAL than he himself pays. Under this policy
a confidence is established between THE
JOURNAL and its advertising patrons that
is vastly more satisfactory than lurking
suspicion that, because the advertiser him
self is securing confidential" favors, some
competitor of his may be favored to an even
greater degree.
The circulation of THE EVENING JOUR-

Protects Wilmington Merchants

THE EVENING JOURNAL, Wilmington's
great home newspaper gained 1926 agate
lines of paid advertising of all kinds in De-
cember 1911, over December 1910.
THE JOURNALS daily average circulation
in December 1910, was 1926 The daily
average in December 1917, was l4174, show
ing daily average gain of 1889 in circula-
ton.
THE JOURNALS gain in volume of ad-
vertising was made possible by the increased
patronage of local merchants.
THE JOURNAL does not carry the adver-
tising of Philadelphia merchants who are
competitors of the Wilmington merchants.
THE JOURNAL has declined all Philadelphia
store advertising.
THE JOURNAL believes in DOING some
thing for Wilmington merchants-not talk
ing about it.
Advertisers are beginning to realize that
greatest results come through CONCENTRA-
TION and are selecting the medium that is
read by nearly 10000 people daily.
Paper Reaches the People
THE JOURNAL is read by more people
daily than any other Wilmington newspaper
and 80 per cent. of its circulation is delivered
INTO wilmington MONIES.
THE JOURNAL sells more copies daily
in each Ward in the City of Wilmington than
any other Wilmington newspaper.
THE JOURNAL goes each day into the
buying homes of this city.
THE JOURNAL constantly and effec lively
reaches the result-producing population in
Wilmington and surrounding sections. 1t
goes into more than $4,000 homes of people
who pay one cent a copy for it and is deliv-
cred by system of agents that permits the
reader to stop any minute the paper is no
longer welcome. Can you beat that for high
class, live circulation?
THE JOURNAL does not give its paper
away or cut the rate already established. THE
JOURNAL is we'll worth one cent a copy, 6
cents week and 25 cents a month. 1t can
not be bought for less.
