MERELY A POINT OF VIEW.


Mayor Harrison w. Howell made
the address of welcome to the Della
ware State Sunday School Associa-
ton yesterday morning He told the
delegates that he had tried to make
the address on Wednesday morning,
thinking the convention met on that
day His Honor said he had entered
Harrison Street NJ. e. Church on We'd
nesday at 1890 a. m. He found
large sign that said Welcome" but
no one was present to welcome or to
hear him.
The mayor said he decided to look
around outside the church. He thus
became witness of an incident which
amused him greatly. A policeman,
the mayor related. was going down
the sidewalk with a man whom he had
evidently arrested. The mans hat
blew Off
"shall chase it?" inquired the
man.
"Ye will mott" replied the police
man. "Ye'd niver come back. Yen
stay right here and Ill chase it me-
silf."
The mayor drew the moral that
there are many points of view in con-
sidering questions.

A DuMINUTIvE

Miss Margaret A. Connell, of No. GIG
West Eighth street. this city. is not
suffragist and yet she probably
plays more important part in the
politics of this State and county than
any Delaware woman. She is first
assistant secretary of the Republican
State Committee, the New Castle
County Republican Committee and
the Republican City Committee. No
one would think IL to look at her.
That, however, is what she is, and
there is nothing to indicate that she
is breaking down beneath the strain
or that she would make any protest
if she were asked to assume the as
sistant secretcryship of each of the
ward committees in Wilmington.
1T has been said that a woman
cannot keep a secret" a member of
one of the committees said yesterday.
THAT may be true as rule, but Miss
Connell is an exception She keeps
hundreds of secrets When anyone
tries to pump her relative to the work
of the committees she gives him to
understand quickly that she is deaf
and dumb and does not even talk in
the sign language"
Miss Connell halls from Yorklyn.
She is n years old, weighs 100
pounds. is five feet tall and has
auburn hair and gray eyes. She first
became active in Republican politics
i'm February, 1910. In those days
she was so short that someone had
to lift her up in the desk chair. Since
then she has grown some and now is
able to climb up by herself. Miss
Connell prides herself on her memory
for names and faces. She, knows
every member of all the committees
and the names and residences of many
of the enrolled voters. When it comes
to incidents of the last election or two
she has them all arranged alpha-
betically in her head. Repeatedly
she proves herself to be an animated
| encyclopedia of political information
Tor committeeman whose memories
are less retentive.
Those who know Miss Connell say
that is she ever becomes interested In
the suffrage movement and is per-
mitted to apply to its advancement

Senator John sharp Williams outraged public de-
cency on Thursday when he read to the United States
Senate a parody the Apostles Greed TO give point
to his opposition to Colonel Theodore Roosevelt II is
surprising that of Senator Williams intelligence
and knowledge of the depth of religious feeling in this
country should deem 1t wise TO resort to such sacri-
leEious conduct in the Senate in any ether public
place. The Ten Commandments the Lords Prayer, the
creed of any church and few other things heretofore
have been respected by all except gross-mnded men
in public debate and in private conversation and
discussion The parody spread on the records of the
United States Senate by Senator Williams would have
shocked the latent religious of the inmates of
brohel.

THAT BOULEVARD 4PROTEsr.v

IT HAT those who are opposing the dupont Boule-
ward and endeavoring to prevent its construction
have within them element Of fairness is shown in
creasngy every day by the grossness Of their misrep-
resenaton relative TO the of political opinion in
this State Thousands Delawareans are signing the
petitions for the boulevard that have been sent out by
the Wilmington Board of Trade. Thousands of others
will do so before the campaign for that great public i'm
provemont has ended. THE EVENING JOURNAL, for
days has been laying before the public scores Of inter-
views with of prominence in this who are un-
qualihedy in favor Of the road Many boards OF trade
also have expressed themselves in its favor. Those are
ircontroyertble truths Yet they are ignored by the
men who have embarked in the reprehensible enter
prise OF stranglng of the greatest gifts offered
to the people of our commonwealth.
The representation that made by the roads enc
mics relative to the significance of the socaed pro
test" meeting held at Grubbs Corner, Brandywne hun
dred this week is fair sample of the work that is
beins done by the consprators and those whom they
using block the road That protest" was signed
BY 6fy-four persons The names represented The re-
suit Of active canvass Doubtless that canvass was
tincturcd by the spirit of unfarness char
acteriled practically all work that has been done
against the boulevard IN other sections by way Of mis-
representing facts and arousing unwarraned opposi-
ton.
On its face that Brandywine hundred protest seems
to stand for something than it really does Inves
tgation discloses that twenyour of the ftysix per-
who signed It not property owners.
but almost all instances the properties in
which they live would be touched by boulevard
The unfair feature of the protest" is however
that it carries with it the of several persons who
live in the Single Tax and Socialist colony in Arden
who not citizens Of Delaware but who vote in
| Philadelphia elsewhere. The of several re-
sponsihle property appear the protest When
the list laid alongside Of the lists of already
I'm hand from all sections in favor Of the great road
The Brandywine hundred protest" simply dwsrfs
into insignihcance
We have respect for the who honestly and sin
corely thinks the boulevard and what would go with
! it would be harmful to the community. Honesty and
sincerity always deserving of respect because man
who possesses those attributes is open argument and
conviction. We have respect however for those
who engage in the enterprise of deliberately seeking
deceive the people who have right to look to them fol
accurate information and enlightenment any publi
question Nor can those who unwittingy exploited
TO serve such selfish ends have any respect for the
consprators in the guse of friends and honest advisors
who seek TO deceive them this any other i'm
