fund for the Homeopathic Hospital in this city

OF the desired amount in onefh OF the time be de-
voted to the campaign That is certainly a good
beginning Contributions always in slower
the opening Of such campaign Than they do to-
ward its close That is because It usually takes
eral days to up the workers and enthuse the
community.
Including today, the committees and teams engaged
in the work have eight days in which to raise
than $l32,OO0. No will deny it is a big task
volunteers This campaign however, like the previous
for the benefit OF the Delaware Hospital has for
its foundation the worthiness Of the institution
its motive power, optimism Of the highest order The
men and the women who have gone into the work are
nbucd thoroughly with the belief that failure out
of the question and that the ten-day whrlwind
paign will have the result desired.
We hope the very best hopes Of the workers will
realized They surely laboring in behalf of a most
worthy and useful institution.

THERE soon will be introduced in the British Par
lament bill permitting the payment of fines

deems such course to be advisable. 1t will be
Government measure. Discovery that in 1912 $4,000
sent to Jail in that country because they
could. not pay fines, has brought it about.
In LEGAL sense, America has taken the lead of
Great Britain in this matter. The system has been
tried with success in Kansas City and other American
communities. Nothing of that sort ever has beensdone
in Delaware, however, despite the fact that hun

pay the fines imposed. Most of them rather would

por,cpMEN AND REwArDs.

THERE be question that the matter Of re-
wards for doing police work has played an impor-
part the troubles of local police department
The Board e. Police Commissioners at last has taken
cognizance OF the fact There already is rule prohib-
itng the acceptance by any member of the force OF
any reward for the capture of criminal or fugitive
from justice. That rule has been suspended many
times however for the benefit # members of the local
force practically has been in state of perpetual
suspense. ssA
We think the attitude of General Wickersham, a
member of the Board OF Police Commissioners, this
important matter viii meet with public approval. It
is member Of the force should be permitted to
accept reward for doing anything that is in line with
his duty policeman. In short, that It is the duty
of policeman to capture a criminal fugitive;
that that Is what he is paid do and that he should
need the stimulation outside reward to impe
him to do what is clearly his duty.
The understanding is, however that locally the mat
ter has serious aspect It has been hint
ed time and again, that certain men in the department
are situated they may most of the outside re
wards offered Such hints may not be founded upoi
fact but they unquestonably have given rise to muc
unfayorable public comment II is certainly some
thing we'll worth the serious consideration OF the
missioners.

THE National Council for Industrial SAT has a
important work to perform. That is to serve
clearing house for all ~~~'s of afety first ideas
devices and plans It Is the hope of those who have
organized IT and opened headquarters in Chicago that
its operations will result in the saving Of at least TO-
600 lives year and also reduce atoidabe accidents
Of non-fatal by hundreds Of thousands
nually
Investigation has shown that each sixteen minutes
in the year workman is killed in a factory
railroad somewhere the United States Each sixteen
seconds in the year a workman is injured In other
words, $4,000 persons are killed and 2OOOOoo per-
sons njure- each year in industrial accidents
IT is the plan organize the members OF the Ma
ronai Council for Industrial Safety into sections.
Each section will contain all those who in the
line of business For instance, twenty-four big
railroad systems, each Of which has its safety
first movement will form one section. 1t is recog-
nized however that large as the roll Of those killed
and injured railroads nine times as many persons
killed and sixteen times many injured in other
industries Therefore It is planned by the council that
there shall be separate sections for steel mills
dries. tanneries, shipyards and the other separate
branches Of industry In short it is the plan have
the council only pursue nationwide campaign Of
safety first education. but also to devise plans for
making such a campaign practically effective.
This is matter that shold make a. particularly
strong appeal to the railroad officials the manufac-
turers and the industrial workers in Wilmington AMI
in fact, the entire state Of Delaware We have had
thousands Of accidents here Hundreds of them have
resulted mortally. Most them might have been
avoided had the safety first plan been in full effect
the railroad lines and in the Industrial plants.
Certainly fail TO realize what blessing it
would be TO our State employers and employees
to organize and work in concert along intelligent and
comprehensive lines to reduce the lowest possible
minimum the hazards Of employment.

LYNNs SERIOUS COMPLAINT.

IF, Assistant City Solicitor John F. Lynn asserts,
the police remiss in the Of getting easily
obtanable evidence for him for use in cases to be
brought to trial in the Municipal Court he is justified
fully in complaining to the Board Of Police Commits
sioners and that board should give serious heed
to his complaint so those conditions may be changed.
Nor should the commissioners rest content with eva
sye replies from those Of the police force
who thus have been hampering the work of the as
sistant city solicitor against the lawless elements
There should be clear understanding that the police
must do their duty or get off the force.
The carnival OF crime that tas swept our city;
the incidents attending the death of Homer c. Virgins
and the outrageous and wholly inexcusable conflict
of testimony given in the investigation of the Virgins
case have served to place the Police Department in
exceedingly unehvabe light before the community
II It be shown that policemen have been obstruct-
ing the course of justice by failing to obtain for the
assistant pu lie prosecutor the easily obtanabe
evidence needed then indeed. is it high time
something be done to reform the department and to
make thorough job of it. When it comes TO a pon,
that public confidence in the efficiency veracty and
honest effort OF department is shaken it is no time
for temporizng. 1t is time for action.

Judge Boyee for sentence in General Sessions on
Tuesday One had pleaded guilty to charge Of
assault with intent TO commit murder and to two
charges Of burglary. The other had pleaded
guilty to charges Of burglary In the case OF the
former the court directed that plea of not guilty be
entered against the defendant the charge Of assault

PENDANTS before the court merely burglars The
sentence imposed upon one Of the men was twenty
lashes and fourteen years imprisonment and upon the
other. twenty lashes and eleven years Imprisonment
Both burglars had operated in New Castle
In passing sentence Judge Boyce said II is the pur-
pose Of the protect the homes Of Delawareans

Farmers Heaviest 7 taxpayers

The Issue has frequently called attention to the
fact that in Illinois, under the present plan of licens
ing saloons, the farmer is being subjected to the OBJ
noxous undemocratic rule of taxation without repre-
sentation Explanations, excuses, evasons avail the
license advocate nothing, touching this phase of
the question No would attempt to deny
that there is expense thrust upon the taxpayers
sultant from the saloon There may be difference of
opinion to how great this expense is owing to the
fact that of it is but indirectly traceabe to the
dramshop; but testimony of judges and lawyers
we'll wardens of pententiares, jails and reform
schools say that from IS to s. per cent of the inmates
of penal institutions from the saloon Coun
etc. also filled from the licensed saloon in about
the ratio. These county institutions for the
of the criminals and dependents maintained by
county taxes. The unit of taxation is the county.
The farmer pays county taxes The farmer has no
voice in saying whether the saloon shall operate in his
county not 1t is clear unmistakable case of taxa
ton without representation Not only is the farmer
deprived of his vote and his taxes increased but he
gets share of the license money. No matter what
mans opinion may be the saloon question, if he is
to be true to the American spirit of liberty, he is
against this undemocratic plan of taxation and he will
enter the fight for county option which will grant
representation" to the farmer
We have briefly reviewed this phase of the license
question for the purpose of emphasizing the fact that
the farmer pays for the support of the countys
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1913-04-04

public dependents If he paid but small percentum
compared with the taxpayers Of the cities and vii
lagos within his county, it would still be unjust be-
cause he is deprived of his right to vote To pay one
penny under existing conditions is unfair to the
farmer, But the injury is magnifed when we dis
cover how much the farmer really does bear of the
county's tax.
The Farmers Share of County Taxes in Illinois,
There are one hundred and two counties in the
state OF Illinois. According to the state auditors
port Of 1910 he latest report avaable the assessed
valuation of lands and improvements thereon is
greater in nnety-four of the counties than the
sessed valuation of the town and city lots and improve
ments thereon.
In only eight counties, to-wit Cook, PEORIA
Lake. Rock Island, Wnnebago, Kane, ST. Clair and
Alexander, is the assessed valuation of the town and
city lots with Improvements greater than the acre land
with improvements thereon This that in any
of these nnetyfour counties where the saloon exists
the farmer is compelled to pay for maintaining
county expenses resulting from the saloon being there
than the citizens of the city village who alone
responsible for it. Add to this fact that the city
tains all the license fee and face to face with
the truth that the farmer is victmized from three
angles.
First he is taxed for an institution that is in his
county without his consent.
Second he is taxed heavier than the citizens who
force this institution upon him.
