PnILADELPHA AND THE DELAWARE.


II HAT Phiadelphans look upon the Delaware
a river and bay as peculiarly their own in com
mercial sense is shown by editorial in Philade
pha newspaper in which it is asserted that "the
lower river and bay is virtually part Of the harbor
OF Philadelphia and should be controlled by
tralized authority" The editorial in question is as
foows:-
Opposition to the bill giving the Commissioners OF
Navigation power to investigate wrecks and collisions
IN the Delaware river and bay was to be expected
from the Pilots Association but the arguments adj
vanced by its representatives before the Senate
judiciary General Committee, yesterday, may well
selfish point Of view The essential question
is not how the measure will affect the rights
and privileges OF the pilots, but rather how It
will protect maritime passengers from peril
The opponents Of the bill set the interests of
OF the whole public. While the hearing was in
progress at Harrisburg there was another collision
in the river, between the battleship Ohio and the
liner Frederick, making the third one OF serious
character since Christmas eve when the Merton and
ward clearing up these former marine MISTAKES!
Have the pilots satisfactorily fixed the blame? EN-
phatioaly not II was one mans word against the
others and there the matter has rested SO iar as OF
cial supervision and control is concerned IL is usu
ally thus Unless the owners OF the injured steam
ships themselves choose TO bring such cases up TOT
judicial investigation, nothing is done The lower
and bay is virtually all part Of the harbor OF
Philadelphia, and should be controlled by one central
lied authority The present pilotage system whereby
licenses issued by three States, Is anuquated and
Faulty. The bill now before the Senate Committee
ought TO be passed because IL is step toward a
common sense reform and tho minor objections Of
few individuals who, If they looked at the matter
broadly would surely have nothing TO fear, ought
not be allowed to stand In the way
Wholly apart from the inquistorial question that
has arisen with respect to the Delaware bay and river
pilots it may be said that thanks to those who have
been instrumental in keeping Wilmington from the
Delaware river waterfront, the Delaware river and
bay hare practically become part Of the harhor Of
Philadelphia. Every day craft that should load and
unload in Wilmington take on and discharge cargoes
f, a
Wilmington obtains Delaware river waterfront con-
froled by public and not selfish private interests It
is useless to expect big traffic to come up the Chris
tiana river. Many years Of bitter experience have
shown that il viii not do It. Our city should own and
control the waterfront the Delaware from the
mouth of the Chrstiana up TO the city line near
Edge Moor, It would be crime against the mu-
nicipality for people to permit the Wilmington
Terminal Company to get with the large tract Of
State land and the Government bulkhead along that
waterfront Every patriotic Wilmingtonsn should
rally to the support OF tho present movement to
that valuable property for the city and its people

mission, except as she may represent
a principle of right, which is always
bigger than any Office and in the
triumph of which true Americans
everywhere will always be interested.
When President Roosevelt sent my
name to the Senate for rcappointmont
four years ago, he said that he re-
appointed me on my record in office.
The Senate confirmed me without re-
ference TO a committee OF this the
Atlanta Georgian said editOrially in
its issue of December 14th. 1908.
1T is a matter of State pride that
in Difference to Georgia woman the
time-honorod traditions of the Amer
lean Senate have been broken. The
tribute to Mrs. Longstrcet is unique.
For never before in the two-century
stretch of the senatorial records has
an appointment been confirmed by the
wearers of The toga while the sigma
turo OF the executive was still moist
upon the parchment Usually twen-
ty-four hours at least are allowed to
intervene. But scarcely sixty min
utes elapsed between the signing OF
the commission by the President and
the confirmation Of the appointment
on the part of the upper house OF
congress was not simply a dip Of
courtesy to the fair sex. Nor was IL
patriotic concession to the widow
/ of Gen. James Longstreet On the
contrary, it was a well merited re-
! cognitiOn of the splendid record
which this brilliant Georgia woman
/ has achieved in the Office of post
master at Gainesville during the
past four years. Indeed, the simple
fact is that, upon the list of COM
missioned officials who have served
the United States government in the
same capacity, she ranks first and
foremost. And the course adopted
by the Senate in this gracious act OF
recognition, which defes all preced-
ent, generously completes and rounds
the compliments of President Roose-
welt in making the appointment"
When the politicians undertook TO
have me relieved of the commission
of the postofiice in the closing hours
of Mr. Tafts administration, several
hundred of the leading women OF
Gainesville wired a message to Presi-
dent Taft i'm which they said that I
had made the best postmaster the
town had ever had, and that they had
a right to be heard and they desired
my retention in office. At the same
time a committee of representative
men telegraphed President Taft that
during my administration the town
had enjoyed the most efficient SER
vice in all its history. and that every
patron who was interested only in the
good service of the postoiiice desir-
ed my retention.
These references to my record in
Office are necessary in order that
it may be understood that the fight
on me is political.
Should your paper be able to make
mention of the unequal war which
! am facing l would be most grate-
full to receive a marked copy.
Yours very truly,
Helen ID. Longstreet.

will say. however, while I am on
this subject that there is one of two
things TO be said about Major Ray
mOnd Either he does not want At
lantic City to have a deep inlet or he
errs in advocating dredging rather
than jcttying II is absurd for a man
of Major Raymond's calibre and po-
sition to advocate placing dredgo at
AbsecOn Inlet and expect results.
The dredge could work there for a
few weeks then storm would come
along and drive her away. What
would be the immediate result? Ma
ture would in course Of the storm
fill up all the dredge had excavated
thereby destroying results Of weeks
of work Major Raymond says there
are too many outsiders criticising
something they know nothing about
In answering this, / would like to

I In conclusion, I want to ask Ma.

can we not shut off Main channe

mot exceeding $4,000? Second, dc
you mean to say that closing up MAR

vA7E have received from seaford the following
w communication from Sussex countian OF
prominence
Mr.. Edtor-Woud it not be we'll for our com
munity and for Sussex county for the Attorney
General and his force Of deputies to get busy the
clubs and speakeasies in this town? We have a JUS
tce Ct the peace, constable and town bailin all
living here. We have Attornoy-Genera three
deputies and two State detectives and they seemingly
doing nothing TO suppress the liquor traffic
while the Federal Government is actively working mp
eases. making arrests and procuring convictions
The State officials surely under greater obiisa-
lions to the citizens OF the State than the Gov
ernment officials yet. 10 they doine anything for
our protection. It is not apparent What has be-
come OF all the talk hear before fhe election OF
The efficiency Of Mr. Wolcott2 How does that talk
before the election comport with conditions that have
existed here and in other place Ia Sussex county
since the election?"
We have already called public attention to the fact
mat far surface indications go, the Federal Of
acals doing everything and the State officials
nothng toward the suppression Of this Illegal traffic
IN liquors in dry territory in State Judge Brad
ford. Of the United States District Court has been
commended by for the sentence he has imposed
On the volators of the local option law who had
failed to take the precaution Of procuring Federal
licenses before setting the State law at defiance.
Attorney-General Wocott should not forget that
each OF the prisoners who confessed his guilt and
sentenced by Judge Bradford also confessed au-
tomatcally that he had violated the State law We
have no doubt that it is the opinion Of a vast ma
jorty of the people of State that he should take
steps to prosecute and punish them as soon as they
have served out their terms under the Federal Court
sentences. Nor should he forget that his deputy
lin Sussex county should besr himself to protect the
ppbhe there against such lawlessness the Federal
