BASEBALL IS LOOMING rp.

IT HE WILMINGTON BASEBALL CLUB has won
seven Of the last eight games It has played. Il
stands fourth in the Tri-Stato League That is
pleasing situation. Wilmingonians would be much
better satisfied and much enthusiastic however IL
their home team were nearer the top Such good work
Is being done by the local players however it may
be they will win first place in few days Il they do
that they will find an enthusiastic populace at their
back.
The home team started out we'll and then there was
disheartening slump That overcome quickly
by strengthening the club until today it is almost in
vncibe Il has covered itself with glory n several in
stances by snatchng victory from defeat and one Of
its good traits to brace up undcr adversely and make
Garrison finishes that would do credit to players the
major leagues.
That such clever work is appreciated is shown by
The large crowds that to the local grounds every
afternoon Tho situation il today proves con-
clusirely that Wilmington is good baseball town when
the players make it worth while go out and see them

city Of Wilmington, that would leave
about 300 acres of land for the city
to use and dispose OF to induce and
help the building up and booming Of
Wilmington and its industries. On
any such basis Of use of this land it
would mean for the 300 acres to be
made and disposed Of, an increase Of
city workers of some 10000 and a
consequent increase of city population
of say 10000 to 10000. Would not
that make real the present dream OF
/ growth and advancement of our city? ?
Surely 1t is time for all Wilmington

posed by the Wilmington Terminal

We warn Woodrow Wilson against regarding too SER
iousy any convention or election predictions made by
Willard Salisbury the Democratic National Committee
man from this State. Mr. saulsburys reputation as a
political prophet i'm Delaware was shattered long ago
SO far as local conditions affected. and It goes
without saving that he knows less about national poll
TICS than he does about State politics The short of it
Is that practically everything no knows is how 10 be
oeaten by tho Republicans. At that game il must be
somiued he is past master. If Governor Wilson has
rev such staunch supporters and campaign mana
gers as Mr. salisbury he will be beaten before he
goes into the national convention

Kill THE SCHEME.

a WIIMlNGrON City Councilman who anixes his sig
nature 10 the Delaware river waterfront expoiia
ton scheme of the Wilmington Terminal Campany and
its associates will write simultaneously and automat
cay. his political opitaph. TaSpayers in all the
wards opposed their Councilmen doing anything
assist the marsh land spoculaors obtain those hum
dreds of land for nothing and then use
Federal and city funds to develop them. Councilmen
who feel friendly this exploitation scheme need not
aatter themselves that If they for 1t the taxpayers
will condone the orense and forget it, There GER
tain things taxpayers forget and such oense
against public morals and interest is represented by
this waterfront scheme is one of them
Our Councilmen have a golden opportunity to
show to their constituents that the Wilmington Ter
minal Company and its associates have hold upon
them which compes them to fly In the face of public
opinion by putting such deal through
The duty of the Councilmen Is plain. They should
reject the proposed plan at and thereby rehab
itate themselves in the confidence of the taxpayers
Their step should be to go into court and upset
the Boulevard Law Of 1901 They need not fear to face
such litigation Even some of the exploers know that
law is unconstitutional. Following that, they should
to the Legislature and obtain from it for the city
the entire waterfront tract for riverside park and
wharf purposes.
That is their duty, and they should do it, We ven

CARD FROM ALDER
MAN JENKINS
To the Editor of The Bryan Eagle:

To the Editor OF The Bryan Eagle:
Replying to your query in Thurs
days issue as to how the members OF
1.-THE city council stand on the paving
proposition, the fact that they voted
unanimously to call the election
shows that they are in favor of it.
Owing to our having had SO many
other matters demanding our atten-
ton, we have not gone into the paw
ing question as to the kind of paving
or how 1t is to be done. So ! am
speaking for myself alone in what
follows:
While it is understood that Main
street and the intersecting streets are
to be paved first, you will find that
the election notice reads paving and
grading the streets of said city" So
that we can continue the good work
as we are able. think Main street
should be reduced in width by the
same method employed at the city
hall and library, and the residence
streets the same way.
Should the bond issue carry shall
vote to have the work done by con-
tract, under the supervision of COM
petent engineer who has had prac-
teal experience in that line OF work
/ believe We should receive competi-
tive bids on several kinds of paving
and thus get cost data on each kind
to decide by. For the past eighteen
months | have been investigating the
paving being done in Texas towns and
cities, as we'll as the cities Of the
United States, and have seen quite
number of kinds being put down
new as we'll as being repaired.
| think We should give this work
careful and serious study before de-
Gliding the kind we will use, not only
as to the first cost but more especial
ly as to durability and repairing ex-
penses.
Personally / prefer the creosoted
wood blocks, even though am aware
of the fact that it is the highest in
cost. may at some other time give
you my reasons for doing so.
II the citizens of Bryan expect to
get out of the mud, they must issue
