man of the Finance Committee of City Council, and
Building Inspector William o. Johnson constituting
the Board Of Assessment Revision and Appeals join
In a public address to Wilmington taxpayers ON the
purposes Of the board with respect equalzed
sessment for the city of Wilmington. The three city
officials show by their address that they heartily de-
sire the moral support and active assistance OF our
citizens in the important work they are about to do
Manifestation of that desire should be by hearty
and whole-hearted response from the people.
The members of the board frankly assert that
they have studied the conditions affecting as
sessments and taxation in our city and are sats-
fed that large inequalities in assessments have grown
up gradually and that extensive revision is required
for the honest and equitable taxation of all citizens
That opinion Of existing conditions unquestionably
is shared by thousands of wimngtonans and particu-
larly by the owners of small and nonspeculatve prop
critics.

to escape with only fraction Of the assessment his
property ought to bear. There is a happy middle
ground toward which the Board of Assessment Re

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GOOD.

From the Newark Post.
The recent action of the graduates Of
the Newark High School in forming an
alumni association is worthy of more
than casual attention. Last years class
we arc informed, stands sponsor for the
idea and in setting in motion such an
organization, they have huilded well. II
spirit OF cooperation can be aroused.
the possibilities can be on first thought,
scarcely reckoned. In the adoption OF
the constitution and bylaws, there ap-
pears motives for real successful work
Aside from the purely social side, which
we in no way desire to underestimate,
the constitution outlines campaign
for individual culture by acquiring a
habit for the reading of the better Kind
of literature. This in itself is sufficient
motive for the organization. All of US
are too prone. in this day of best sellers,
to neglect the gems of our own and Eng
lish writings. So-called summer reading
requiring neither thought nor effort. ia
extending too far into our lives and is
robbing US of the books worth while.

Editorial Opinion
UNCLE SAW AND DUCKS.


From the Dover State News.
It would be well for all our local
sportsmen and hunters to note taat
wild ducks and water fowl are now
protected by Federal law. It is bet
ter to accept these facts now than to
have United States marshals coming
down and taking the aforesaid hunt
ers and sportsmen up to Wilmington
as prisoners before the United States
courts.
Some, if not many of our Kent
county gunners we're out ducking Oh
October / and bagged lots of ducks,
but 1t is a question whether they can
be proceeded against as it is said
President Wilson did not sign the bill
protecting migratory and insectivor-
GUS birds until 124O-p. m. on Octo-
Der l, thus making a retroactive
statute inasmuch as the State law
was out October /, at 1901 D. m.
However. it is not likely that any
body will get into trouble over the
past, but look out for the future
Shore birds, even ployer and snipe
are also protected by the new law
There are many who will disap-
prove of this legislation, but many
others who will approve of it. There
are good reasons why our birds and
wild fowl should be given a chance
to breed and propagate, instead Of
being driven from our shores by the
automatic guns, shooting-boxes and
regiments of hunters I'm Massachu-
settts they equal twenty regiments Of
infantry. Let the hunter be patient
and law-abiding and take what is al
lowed him and he will become a real

DEMOCRATS sTRANGElY s1LENr.

From the Salem Standard
In every campaign in Salem county
when the Republicans were in control OF
the State government, the Democrats
made a great argument about the game
laws and they invariably called upon
the voters to punish some Republican
aspirants for legislative honors for his
sins of omission in reference to these
laws. There Is strange silence this
year, however, from our Democratic
friends, and we wonder if they are
pondering over the Democratic meas
ures which have seriously interfered
with their sport.
