Republican Senators
Will Retire for Good.

Mark Sullivan, political editor of
Golfers Weekly, calls attention to the
fact that the terms of thirty-two MEM
sbers of the United States senate will
:expire on March 3. 1915. and that more
than one-Hlalf of these senators are re-
spubicans as follows:
! W. @. Bradley, Kentucky; J. H.
BRADY. Idaho; f. B. Brandegee, Con-
necticut; j. L. Bristow, Kansas; T. e.
burton, Ohio; G. /. Crawford, South
Dakota: A. B. CuHnmins, Iowa; w. p.
Nottingham, Vermont; ]. H. Gallinger,
New Hampshire; A. J. Gronna, North
dakota: w. L Jones, Washington; B.
Penrose. Pennsylvania; G. G. Perkins,
fisherman, Illinois; Smoot, Utah; I.
stephenson. Wisconsin.
{ Mr.. Sullivan also calls attention 10
the fact that in the presidential cleo
/ ton last year the republicans carried
just two small states-Utah and Yer
mont-and those only by a very small
majority.
In view OF the elections of a year
ago and of those this month and in
view also of the new method under
which senators are now to be elected
by the direct vote of the people, it is
not unreasonable to suppose that a
large number of the retiring repub-
lican senators will be retired for good
and that the next senate will be over
whelmingly democratic.

Neither Side in Mexico
To Be Trusted.

Those who are inclined to synpa-
thize with the Mexican rebels in their
warfare against Dictator Huerta may
have a righteous cause for their sym
pathy in that Huerta is not entitled to
rule Mexico, but their sympathy
should stop there.
Many events have occurred all along
in Mexico during this revolution that
have proven conclusive1y that there is
no moro humanity among the rebels
than there is among the federals. 1t
is only necessary to read the manner
in which they line up cautured officers
) of the federal army and shoot them
/ into new made graves to know that
they are just as inhunnan and blood
thirsty as Huerta and his supporters
!. Their excuse is that of retaliation, so
! that it is seen that one side is Just
about as bad as the other and both
about as bad as can be.
The rebels deserve sympathy only
/ because they are fighting against a
dictator; man who was chosen pres
ttdent, but secured the office as the re-
1 suit of the most cowardly murder The
rebels do not hesitate to kin, pilIage
and destroy; and the same policy is
pursued by the federals There is no
such thing as civilized warfare with
them
1t is for these reasons, If for no
other. that the United States govern
ment should not commit itself to the
cause of either side of the Mexican
revolution. They are both treacherous
and not to be trusted If this govern

. devil with fire" and will have q. large
job, but it looks more and more like
1T is going to be necessary as time
passes on.
To save the Monroe doctrine. to keep
other countries out of sLatin-Amerfca.
there may be trouble with Mexico, but
the only purpose of this country should
be to establish a government on a
correct basis, and then uphold that
government. OF course, in a war with
Mexico, the United states will win,
and it is not probable that the war
would be a long one even if the fed
erals and rebels were to join forces.
but it would be a costly one even II
Mexico was required to pay a large
indemnity.
. It is to be hoped that this revolution
-can be settled without the United
states becoming involved, and it is the
opinion OF a great many that the Mex
leans should be supplied with all the
munitions of war that may be desired,
and let them shoot it out. The rebels
profess to believe that they can win in
a very short time if they are allowed
TO procure firearms from the United
States.
+ Meantime, the financial drouth that
has been brought on may have the
desired results. as Washington expects
for without money Huerta will find it
difficult to long continue his dictator
ship.

Wood block paving. which was quite
popular in many American cities some
years ago, but had gone almost en-

ease and noiselessness of travel and

The Political Scramble
The political field is still alluring and
is destined to have many raw recruits
who are ambitious enough to believe
that they can do the blowing better
than the other fellow. Hon. John N.
C. Stockton and Ex-Governor Gilchrist
are both in the field for Senator Fletch-
eE's place, and rumorS are now afioat
that Mr. Herbert s. Philips, recently
appointed United States district attor-
ney for the southern district of Flor
ida, viii enter the arena also. Mr..
John p. Stokes will measure agricul-
tural implements with Mr.. Emmett
Wilson in West Florida, and quite a
number will oppose Hon. Frank Clark
and Hon. Claude LyEngle. 1t seems to
be a mere matter of personal ambition,
as Mr.. Fletcher and all the members
of congress from Florida seem to be
holding up the hands of the president
in his various policies.-Ocala Banner.

SHIPPING FRUIT
BY AUTO TRUCK
Truck From Down State
Passes Through Newark

The first load of Delaware pro-
duce to be brought to Wilmington
in the large five-ton Pierce-Arrow
auto truck, of the Foss- Hughes
Company, passed through Newark
from Smyrna enroute for Will
mington. Instead Of being loaded
entirely with grapes, the truck car
ried a mixed cargo of grapes, can't
aloupes and apples. There were
about 300 cases in all, and they
were delivered to commission
merchants on Fourth street. The
truck returned to Smyrna today
and expects to experience no trou-
BILE in getting large load, princi-
pally grapes, for Wilmington mar
kets.
The truck is in charge of Clay
ton Donoline, Of the Philadelphia
Office Of the Foss- Hughes Company
who was assisted by w. w. Bush Of
the same company, and Frank
I1ydlt Oh w llllllngtOn.
Frank Alderman, manager Of
the Foss-Hughes Company, went
down the State in an automobile,
and supervised all arrangements
for the experiment of hauling fruit
and produce from the farms direct
TO the Wilmington markets.
The produce brought up yes
terday was received by the George
b. Booker Co., and 7. n. Stayton.
Mr.. Booker received about 800 bas-
kets of grapes. The price received
for fruit here was about the same
as in Philadelphia and there is lit
tie advantage in freight charges
but the carriage was saved, which is
quite an item. The fruit also was
in excellent condition because Of
quick delivery.
Mr.. Stayton received butter,
eggs, cantaloupes, potatoes, and
grapes.
Before starting down the state
this morning the truck was loaded
with goods from the wholesale gro
ceries Of w. B. Megear, A. j. Hart
Company, and the William d. Null
len Company.
These goods were to be delivered
to merchants in Middletown and
Smyrna.
In getting the shipment of fruit
and produce the auto truck is run
right to the farmers homes and
loaded.

PEACH CROP
NOW ON

farm, while not equalling in guam

to the quality that has already
made it famous. Two small pick
ings of Elbertas have already been
made, and the entire crop, it is ex-
pected, will be handled within the
next 10 days. Owing to the
early frosts, there is no white
fruit in the orchard this season,
but it is believed there will be at
least 500 baskets of Elbertas. The
entire crop has been sold to P. }.

SEWER OPERATIONS
IN FULL SWING
Fxcavator Creates Interest-Work To Be Completed In
Contract Time

which necessitates a great deal Of
hand digging. BY the method en-
ployed houses will be without wa
ter for an hour, the workmen max
ing a point of notifying household
ers before their water supply is dis
turbed. Mr.. Jacobs has issued or
ders that the repairs be promptly
made in order that the public be
inconvenicnced as little as posi-
bic.
The pipes being laid are 8, 10
and Il inches in diameter. The
10 inch pipe will be laid on Della
ware and Cleveland avenues, into
which the sewage from the 8 inch
pipes on Main street will be turn.
ed. The II inch pipe will be laid
from Chapel street where the sew
age of the whole town empties for
the final flow along East Main
Street to the disposal plant, north
east Of town.
The depths of excavation vary
greatly at different points, the
most shallow place being under
the B. & O. bridge, North Chapel
street, where the trench will be
only four feet, and the greatest
depth, about % feet, in front of
the residence Of John Pilling.
Contractor Jacobs has as yet
struck no rock, and believes he will
not in the, course of the work.
Should he do so, this feature is cov-
cred in the contract, the price for
the straight excavating, and the
removal of rock being given, as is
customary, in separate items.
Several caveins at the disposal
plant which caused some delay,
have been overcome, and a force of
men began on the concrete work
today.
