near Eleventh Street bridge to have
a park, a playground and ample
facilities for moorage for those who
enjoy water sports all in one plot.
This would certainly add to the
splendid system now controlled by
the Park Commission and nothing
would prove a more popular move
and nothing would offer quite as
much opportunity for relaxation.
diversion and amusement for young
and old, rich and poor, it is felt by
many persons.
Il has been suggested more than
once that if the city would feel like
investing money in such a park the
cost of moorage would return to the
city a handsome revenue.
The authorities in cities are more
and more beginning to realize the
necessity Of parks and Fairgrounds
and Wilmington has been commend
ably alert on this line. Advocates Of
such a park feel that the programme
already outlined and in a measure
started will hardly be complete until
this matter is taken up. A boating
park on the Brandywine with a re-
creation park and a playground be-

METALLIC FLAG
TO REPLACE CLOTH

A step further is being taken by
the Pennsylvania railroad for the
prevention Of accidents and safety to
its employees, the latest move being
a metallic flag to be used as a guard
against cars being moved while men
are at work beneath them.
1t has long been the practice of
the company to provide blue flags of
bunting to be placed in the front and
rear of engines and cars to warn
others that workmen were making
repairs underneath the trucks of the
cars. In the past several serious ac-
cidents have occurred from these cars
being moved because the danger flags
were not plainly discernible unless a
wind kept the bunting flying.
The new device, which is now being
distributed at the Philadelphia ter
minal and other points along the
lines, is Of metal and is attached to
metal stan. The staffs, upon being
ploced at both the rear and front Of
the engine, car or train undergoing
repairs, can be more plainly seen on
account of its upright position.
AS yet none of the new danger sig
nails has been received by the local
oilclals of the road. but it is expect
ed that a full supply of them Will be
sent here within the next few days.
SO far much satisfaction has been
expressed by the men for the addi-
tlonal safety that will be afforded
them, as it is claimed that il is now
impossible for the crews of shifting
engines not to see the signals.

PARK BOARD

MAY CLOSE SWIMMING
POOLS TO MAKE UP

T. Roy Pierce, assistant park engi-
neer, acted as secretary at the meet
ing of the Board of Park Commits
sioners yesterday afternoon in the abb
sence of Superintendent Edward
Mack, who is attending The convention
Of the National Association Of Park
superintendent in Boston, Mass.
Finances was the most important
thing considered at the meeting, the
treasurer's report showing a deficit Of
S572.11,. not including bills due The
report showed the bank balances at
last report to be S443134; receipts.
rents, SS5; appropriation from Coun-
Gil, $1,000; swimming pools, 1880;
sale of trees, S1.55; expenditures,
S62SS.19, leaving the deficit as stated
Dennis j. Mention, a member of the
commission, spoke of the city appro-
priation, saying he thought it should
he larger as the Fairgrounds we're
enlarging yearly and the swimming
pools maintenance had to come out
of the appropriation. This years ap-
preparation, It was stated. amounted
to $4,000. but the policing of the
parks cost $4,000, and lights $4,000.
The subject was dropped, however,
without further comment.
The. report of the park superin-
tendent relative to the swimming
pools showed the total attendance to
have been 27.416. The executive
committee urged that the pools be
closed on the Saturday following La
! Dor Day this year. instead of on the
first day of October. as heretofore.
This would mean a saving of $3.50 in
the three weeks. The matter was re-
ferred to the executive committee with
power to act.
Samuel H. Baynard spoke of the
grading or Eighteenth street by the
city and the condition of the athletic
field between Harrison and Franklin
streets. There is a large knoll there
and at the bottom the street grade
is six feet above the field. He sug-
gested that the knoll be removed and
the dirt placed in the lower end OF
the plot Mr. Baynard said he would
have it done at his own expense and
the matter was left to the executive
committee with power to act.
The question of taking over the
3. and o. railroad company's old
bridge across the Brandywine was re-
ferred to during the meeting when It
was stated that the matter was still In
the hands of the various committees
Of the city departments.

NOMINATIONS.

From the Dover Index.
We are not of those who believe IN
a hard and fast rule of rotation of
state nominations from county 10
county. There are instances when it
is much better to consider men and
not the county's turn. Since 1896 we
have been unable to elect a Demo-
cratic Governor in Delaware, and we
can only do so this year by nominal
ing an unusually strong man. who
can attract a large independent vote.
Nor does II matter to the voters what
county this candidate halls from.
Kent county has one or two such
Democrats and there is no reason
why Kent county Democrats should
not present a candidate for that nom
nation Nor is there any force in
the contention made by some news
papers that because New Castle
county has the larger part of the
criminal business, it should have the
Attorney General. AS a matter Of
fact, under the present arrangement.
the Attorney General does little OF
the criminal business, that work being
left to the county deputies We think
IL WOulu ut Wcli Aut view Odbtle cOuu-
ty Democrats to recognize that Kent
and Sussex counties have some rights
and have enough representation in a

ish enough to permit New Castle coun
ty to load down the state ticket with
a candidate for Governor Of the sort
of most of the aspirants for the NOM

LOYALTY TO ORGANIZATION.

From the Dover State Sentinel
Without Republican political or
ganization there could be no Repub-
lican party In that sense we affirm
that an organization effected through
Republican primary elections and
conventions, is the Republican party
the recognized exponent and de-
fender of its principles and definer Of
its policies. Opposition TO that or
sanization is, in our sense of the
logical sequence of things, opposition
to the Republican party. its princi-
pies and its candidates.
