lives.
Woman Gives Alarm.
The Watkins home on Boulevard
terrace caught fire shortly before $50
o'clock. Mrs. Watkins was awakened
suddenly by the crackle and roar
Of the flames, and thought the sound
came from a burglar trying to gain
entrance into the house. She arose
from her bed, secured a revolver and
then awakened her husband.
Mr.. Watkins listened and he, too,
thought burglar was attempting en-
trance. He took the revolver and
started to investigate, AS he opened
the bedroom door he was met by
cloud of smoke so thick that he was
unable to stand before it.
Flames followed the smoke into
the room, and Mr. and Mrs. Watkins
were forced to flee into the street,
wrapped only in blankets they had
snatched from the bed. The flames
were extinguished before great dam
age was done.
Mr. and Mrs. Davidson and Miss
Olson escaped from their home at No
II Marion avenue only a few seconds
before the roof crashed in on the
rooms they had been occupying. I. r,
Bass, living next door at No. 19
Marion avenue, was awakened by the
sound of the flames, and he and Mrs
Bass ran into the street They tried
to awaken the Davidson family by
knocking on their door and scream
ing, but were unsuccessful.

Corrupt Practices.
We deplore the passage of the so
called "simpl6ed ballot law" which
permits the voters TO take their bal
lots home with them. as we believe
that this is subyerslve of the princi-
pie of tho Australian ballot, which
was one of the greatest reforms made
in this country
Assessments.
We believe that the assessments Of
property i'm Wilmington should be
published as is the case In New York,
in order that each property owner
may have the opportunity Of compar-
ing his assessment with all others to
insure fairness
We hold that the present system Of
taxation is unfair. and particularly
the re-assessment by which Il is pro-
posed to place upon the real estate
in Wilmington practically eleven
twelfths OF the whole of the increase
made In the rc-assessmont Ia New
Castle county. We recommend the
employment Of an expert tax COM
missioner TO lay before the citizens cf
this city a comprehensive plan for
more fairly distributing the tax bur
den We condemn the present fec
system Of payment for the collection
of taxes.
River Front.
The city OF Wilmington should
have river front We do not believe
that the valuable land created by the
4 % fuf
States government should go to pri-
vate parties purely as the result Of
laws having been passed at Dover in
the interest of such parties. We.
therefore. favor test of the constl-
tutionality Of the bulkhead law Of
1901
Public Schools.
Our public schools should receive a
more generaus support We favor
such measures as will give them a
higher standing and increase their
influence and efficiency. The audi
forums Of our public school build
ings should be thrown open to public
assemblies. under proper regulation.
Our candidates stand pledged to
support this platform. They recog-
nizo the fact that they derive their au-
thority from the people and that they
are responsible to the people only.
They are controlled by no political
machine.
II Is well-known fact that pre-
vious TO the birth of the Progressive
party, we have had in local Affairs in
Wilmington. not two parties. but one
the Republican-D Democratic party.
We appear before the citizens Of
Wilmington as second party-the
party OF the opposition, fighting the
peoples fight On this ground we
ask the support Of ever. citizen.

IMPROVE MENT OF
DELAWARE CITY STREETS

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
DELAWARE CITY. Dol, MAY c.
The road commission appointed by
Mayor and Council recently presented
its report 20 Council last night IN the
form of a letter.
The first rsrt of the le.ye~ sug-
eests that the city should own the
present sewer system on Clifton
street and that this sewer can be
bought. IL each 20 foot lot on Clinton
street is assessed at So.
Tho second portion of the report
suggests uniform curbing.
Tho third part suggests that the
street be paved seventeen feet from
each curb and that there be a grass
plot In the middle.
The fourth portion OF the report
suggests that bids he asked for paw
ing the street so that the greatest
number of square yards can be laid
for the $4,000 available. The COM
mission reports asphalt and vitrified
brick as being too expensive and tha;
oyster shells arc unsuitable for busi-
ness traffic.
The letter is signed by II. c. Clark,
chairman: p. J.. Mulligan, Stanley $.
Stevens. F. C. Warner and William y.
Jester.
II was decided to have public
meeting in the FIRE engine house, Fri
day evening. when the Mayor and
Council will meet the commission TO
finally settle the matter.
The assessment list was read and
some corrections we're made. Appeals
will be heard on Monday evening"

the requirements here. but at that it
would not apply to Wilmington alone.
but would take in the business done
by his company in the State.
Mr.. Baily said that as the commits
sion had jurisdiction in the city only
he could not see what good such "a
report would be 70 the board as il
took in considerable territory outside
of Wilmington.
Mr. Bacher replied that II would be
better to get these figures than ncne
at all.
Mr. Heindle suggested that the
matter also be taken up with the
other companies and this will be
done Meantime blank reports such
as are used by commissions in other
states will be prepared to be filled in,
Mr. Heindle stating his company
would MI in this report as far as IL
was possible to do So
Mr. Baily asked Mr. Heindle about
the signal lights in the cars. he stat
ing that he had seen red lights on
Delaware avenue cars and other mis-
leading lights on other cars. He
said II was an annoyance TO the trav-
cling public and should be rectified.
Mr.. Heindle promised to look after
this al once.
Mr. Cleaver complained to Mr. Helm
die Of the street car service on the
Washington street line The travel,
he said. was increasing rapidly. and
the cars were simply crowded in rush
hours every day. He asked for a
nine-minutc schedule during the day
and a six-minute schedule during the
rush hours instead of twelve and
nine minutes respectively, as at pres
ent
Mr. Hendle said his company had
noticed the increase in travel on the
line in question. He said. however
that the companys business was in
creasing. and IL was short of cars,
I fully intending to get new ones for
the fall business
Business increasing despite the
/ abolishment OF the strip tickets?"
asked Mr. Cclavor
/ Mr. Heindle admitted II was in
creasing, but not as much as IN other
! cities. He said that Chester had
a much bigger increase, due to the
many new industries going up there
He promised the members that he
would have reading taken of the
! business on the Washington street
line.
Mr. Baily asked Mr. Heindle why
the company did not institute an
hourly night service and the com.
pany official replied that there would
not be enough business to pay for axle
grease used on the cars during the
night
After Mr.. Heindle retired the mem
bers discussed the proposition Of in.
stalling a municipal lighting plant
using power generated at tho City
Mills pumping station. The discus.
sion was informal, however, and nc
action taken Mr.. Vance remarked
during the discussion that the city
should own all the street car road
beds. conduits, etc, and thought the
suggestion should be brought to the
attention of City Council and that body
take il up with the Legislature Il

Cleaver quickly seconded the motion
while Mr.. Bacher strenuoLsly objec-
ted to such action
President PeiTce was compelled TO
put the motion and Messrs. Cleaver
and Baily voted in the affirmative
while Mr. Bacher voted no. Neither
Mr.. Vance nor President Peirce voted
and at once Messrs Cleaver and
Bailey claimed the motion passed by a
vote of two to one and insisted on
the chair making ruling. Mr..
Bacher first looked at Mr.. Vance and
then at the president. and insisted
on the latter voting no that the vote
might be :. tie
Mr.. Vance remarked THAT is the
time they slipped one over on us"
Mr. Cleaver took exception TO this,
and said Mr. Vance had the oppor-
tunity to vote had he taken It.
The conversation between the mem
bers became general with Mr.. Bacher
continually urging the President TO
reconvcne the meeting or call a spe-
cial meeting so that ne might present
his figures Mr. Peirce. however,
concluded to rule the meeting ad-
iourned. and told Mr. Bacher that he
might bring up his business at the
next meeting.
Mr Bacher asked Mr. Pcirce what
he proposed to do about a subject Of
congested street car traffic that he
had proposed TO bring up. The latter
replied that as Il was voted to ad-
iourn, he too would have TO wait until
the next meeting.
Mr. Bacher said the commissioners
should be such in factand not in name
only, and that they were there 20
