Gate Imposing Feature
of New Field

The memorial gate at the main
entrance to the new athletic field
at Delaware College has been com
pleted, with the exception Of a few
details, during the last week. 1t
makes splendid appearance and is
really one Of the features Of the
field. The gate is between the gym
nasium and Mechanics Hall. The
two large brick pillars are orna-
mented by a large granite top, at
tached to each of which is a tablet.
The tablet on the pillar at the left
on entering the field reads:
Joe Frazer Field, 1872
The inscription on the other pill
lar is as follows:
"In Memory Of Joseph Heckart
Frazer, 1SS2--1911, b. G. E., 1903.
Erected by Eben Boyd Frazer,
Helen Heckart Frazer, James Stan
ley Frazer. "
The heavy rains this week have
put the contractor back considerab-
ly with the work on the field. The
deep trench that had been dug
around the field where the quarter
mile track is to be located for the
drain pipes to go in was partly fill
ed up again by the dirt washing
back in it. After these drains are
laid and the track with the 22O-
yard straightaway completed all
that will remain will be to level up
the field and SOW grass seed over
the entire ground. Concrete steps
from the terrace at the western end
of the field opposite the gymnasium
to the field have been built.

next week and Mr.. Underwood has
the opportunity to pass tariff bill
for revenue only, you will find diff
terent times from what you are
now having. If you take down that
tariff bulwark how are you going
to compete with cheap foreign la
bor? We do not want labor wages
reduced. They say that if we take
down the tariff we will get cheaper
living but what good would that do
us If we have no money to buy with.
'Senator Miller spoke of going
through all parts of lower Della
ware during the campaign and how
prosperous he had found the farm
ers. The increase to farm lands,
stock, crops, etc, in Delaware dur
ing the past 10 years has been 1923,
100000, under the protective tariff.
! I'm concluding Senator Miller
said that if he should be elected
next week it will be his aim to do
everything that is possible for the
people OF the State. regardless of
/ political affiliations. He consider
ed that there is an opportunity for
the development in this stat4 of
One of the greatest garden spots in
the country. The speaker also said
that he favored a more simplifed
ballot law. There should be, he ar
gued, q Ballot that every man can
vote himself without fear of losing
his vote. Senator Miller's speech
was received with applause.
The next speaker was Hugh C..
Browne, who said that he cast his
first vote at the Washington House,
this town, when secretary to the
late John Pilling, and he attribut-
ed the fact of his always having
been a rock-ribbed Republican to
his early associations. Mr.. Browne
also dwelled mostly on the tariff.
The Democratic party, he said, as
minority party, had always been
bowling success but as a party in
control a dismal failure. He said
the fact none of our citizens are
leaving the country and the fact
that the steamships continue to be
crowded with immigrants coming
LII was the unanswerable answer to
the tariff question.
Mr.. Browne told Of the old taxa
ton and assessment laws under
Democratic control in this State
when Republicans had hard time
to vote, but now under the Repub-
llcan rule no man entitled to suf-
trage is refused. He commended
the Republican State ticket headed
by Senator Miller and in conclusion
said, Il plead with you to stand
by the old party that has done so
much for you, me and the Ameri-
can people, and continue in power
the grand Old Republican Party. !"
Mr.. Reinhardt said he agreed
with Senator Miller that a more
simplified ballot law is needed and
that if elected he will support it
along with the repeal of the Voters
Assistant law. Mr.. Reinhardt ex-
planned how the voters, if they de-
sired too, could vote for Mr.. Roose-
welt and at the same time vote for
the Republican State ticket He
also spoke of the high class of men
who make up the Republican State
ticket.
Many of those present met Sen
ator Miller and shook hands with
him either before or after the meet
ing.

ENTHUSIASTIC REPUBLICAN,
MEETING LAST EVENING,
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR CHARLES r. MILLER AND
OTHER PROMINENT SPEAKERS ADDRESS LARGE
ENTHUSIASTIC AUDIENCE AT OPERA HOUSE

Many Of the voters of White Clay
Creek Hundred had their first OPP
portunity of meeting former State
Senator Charles X. Miller, the Re-
publican nominee for Governor, at
a mass meeting held in the Opera
House last night. Senator Miller
made an excellent impression by
his talk which was principally on
the tariff and it was the general
opinion that he made many friends
and greatly strengthened the tick
ct by his visit.
The meeting was held under the
auspices OF the recently organized
Republican Club. The attendance
was the largest that has turned out
at. a political meeting in Newark
during the campaign. Music was
furnished by the Minnehahah band.
In addition to Senator Miller ad-
dresses were also made by Hugh
G. Browne and David j. Reinhardt,
candidate for State Senator in the
Second Senatorial District, Will
mineton. Robert S. Gallaher
president Of the club opened the
meeting and DR.. Arthur S. Houch-
in presided. Others who occupied
seats on the stage were Robert 2.
Robinson, nominee for INSURANCE
commissioner, Walter Burris, cand-
idate for Sheriff. Harvey Hoffeck-
er, local nominee for Representa-
tive, Alfred A. Curtis, Daniel
Thompson, John p. Armstrong,
ard others.
DR.. Houchin, in his opening re-
marks spoke of the present Repub-
lican administration as having been
one Of true political economy. He
then introduced Senator Miller,
who was given hearty welcome.
Senator Miller said he would
talk of the material prosperity of
our country and State. The speak
er stated that prosperity and pro
gress blessed our country from the
close Of the Civil War until 1884
when Mr.. Cleveland was elected.
The business people Of the country
feared that the tariff would be in
terfered with under his admins
tration and consequently mills were
closed and businss conditions in
general were unsettled. Harrison S
election in 1888 restored confidence
to some extent in 1890 when he
signed the Mckinley tariff bill and
this also helped materially. The
election Of Cleveland again in 1892
the speaker said, was brought about
largely by thousand Of voters re-
naming away from the polls and
no one was more surprised than the
Democrats themselves. He then
told OF the hard times which fol
lowed this election. In this con-
nection Senator Miller said one of
the most eloquent speeches that it
had ever been his pleasure to listen
to was made by Mr.. Roosevelt dur
ing the 1896 campaign in Whining
ton. Mr.. Mckinley and Mr.. Roose-
welt were the Republican standard
bearers III that campaign. Roose-
welt, he said, had with him two
loaves Of bread, one large and an
other small. During his address
he held the small loaf up and said,
THAT is what you are getting un-
der the low tariff" and then hold
ing up the large loaf he said, "That
is what you will get under the pro-
tective tariff if Mckinley is elect
ed. . Continuing he said, 81 think
that if Woodrow Wilson is elected

There arc two ways to tell whether you
have weak kidneys.
The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
That is why physicians make such a
careful examination when you apply for
insurance, and if there is any sign Of kid
ney trouble you are surely rejected.
Kidney disease is so dangerous that it
is bad mistake to overlook or neglect it,
and if pain in the back, recurring head
aches, or a fretful, nervous, tired condition
makes you suspect some kidney trouble,
take the trouble to watch the kidney secre-
tons. Look for any of the following
signs
More or less than three and one half
pints passed daily.
Too dark or too psle q color.
Passa6es too frequent, profuse. or much
reduced, or scaldin6 and painful.
Sandy. dritty or cloudy settings.
Fat or oily looking layer which gathers
on the surface when allowed to stand,
or telly-like thickenip6.
Staining of the linen or bad odor.
Temporary changes may occur for time
fSpm things eaten, but if the changed ap-
pearance continues, your kidneys are out
of order and need help. Neglect may prove
serious.
Doan's Kidney Pills correct and regu-
late the kidney secretons, stimulate and
heal sick kidneys. and thereby drive away
backache, rheumatic pain, nervousness, dig

Small Girls Pretty Answer to Stupid
Question Of Inquisitive
Busybody.

She was a pretty little tot, and ev-
erybody who knew her took pleasure
In pausing to ask her some kind Of a
question, merely to show an interest
and for the pleasure of hearing the
musical cadence OF her voice. Some
of the questions were what might be
termed leading, but for all she invari-
ably had some kind of an answer.
Among these latter inquiries was one
from an intrusive busybody who was
old enough to know better, but who
belonged to a class of persons who
never learn. Knowing that the little
girl had only recently become the pos
SCISSOR of young and attractive step
mother, with curiosity Unborn she
asked her frankly:

PUBLIC FUNDS AID THE WORK
Gratifying Sign That the People Are
Awake to Value Of Fight Against
Tuberculosis.

Compared with the expenditures for
past year are practically the same In
the aggregate, but they are almost
double those of 1909. The National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis, in its third an
nual statement, points out, however
what 1t considers more significant
than the aggregate expenditures.
namely. that the percentage of money
spent for public funds is greater in
1911 than ever before, being $50 per
per cent of the total expenditures
was from public funds, and in 1910
It had increased to 626 per cent. In
1911 over $s9,600,000 of the $14,500, 600
spent was from federal. state, munich
pal or county funds. Since the chief
work OF the anti-tuberculosis associa-
tions Is to urge the public authorities
to provide for tuberculosis patients,
and thus to assume the responsibility
for stamping out this disease the IN
creased percentage of public money
is regarded as very favorable sign
Of progress.
Appropriations Of over 100000
for tuberculosis work In 1912 have al
ready been made by state legislatures
and municipal and county bodies. OF
this sum about $4,700,000 is from
state appropriations. and about $500,
600 for county and municipal purposes.
In addition to these sums. the federal
government spends about $1,000, 600
every year, supporting It's several spe.
cial tuberculosis sanatoria.
