MAYOR LIKELY TO
REAPPOINT THE
HEALTH BOARD

At the meeting Of the Board Of
Health yesterday afternoon Mayor
Howell told tho members of the
Board that II they continued to do
their official work faithfully and TO
the best interests of the city they
might be reappointed at the explra-
ton of their terms In May, 1914.
The Mayor told the members OF the
Board that complaint had been made
In former years that after a Board
of Health had familiarized itself with
its duties and was ready TO accomplish
the best things for the city, the mem
bers would be retired from Office by
political conditions
Things are different now" the
Mayor pointed out. inasmuch as he
had the appointing power, "and |
shall reappoint those men who have
worked faithfully and for the best in
terests Of the city" Under no con-
ditions, the mayor said, would he
continue, nor did he expect to con-
tinue in Office any officials who have
not performed the duties of Office
faithfully and to the best interests of
the city,
When Mayor Howell was asked to-
day II his remarks could be construed
as an unofficial announcement of his
II tention to reappoint the present
Board of Health, he said;
1T depends entirely upon the man
ner in which the members perform
the duties of Office between now and
May of next year."

Positive and complete denial that the

Cabin Crek coal regions was made to-
day by many witnesses called on boz
half OF the owners Of the rich coal

tion Robert Fulton alias Edward Hall

railroad police after a hard fight and
in whose possession was found suf-
ficient nitroglycerin to blow up the
DUPONT Building.
Mr.. Cortelyou spent two hours at
the county workhouse and was much
impressed with that institution and
the manner in which Il is conducted.
After his business with. Fulton was
concluded the well-knowh foe of GRIM
finals was shown through the prison
and frequently expressed his admira-
ton of the manner in which it is laid
out and It's management.

country and is a close friend of West

CLEANER
CITY PLAN
OF MAYOR
City Executive Asks Depart
ment Heads to Join in
Clean Up Movement
| NEED $1,000 TO
CARRY OUT WORK

Having promised the citizens of
I Wilmington during the recent politi-
cal campaign that, If elected, he
would use his efforts in having inn
( proved the unsightly lots about the
city. Mayor Harrison w. Howell yes
terday afternoon called a conference
of the Board of Health, the Street
and Sewer Department and Chief of
Police Black, when the subject was
discussed. The meeting was held in
the room of the directors of the Street
and Sewer Department.
That the city departments have the
power to clean up the vacant lots and
keep them clean was the opinion of
all. In order TO do this all citizens
are urged by Mayor Howell to CO
operate with the Police Department.
the Street and Sewer Department and
the Board of Health. 1t was thought
by those present at the conference
that a few, arrests for dumping rub
bish on lots that are placarded with
Board of Health signs would put a
stop TO the practice Of drivers of
carts now depositing refuse matter on
lots.
Several instances Of unsightly lots
were mentioned at the conference,
especially those at Cedar and Frank
lin streets. Twenty-sec0nd and West
streets. and other portions Of the
Ninth ward. Mayor Howell said he
promised the people that he would
endeavor to improve the condition of
the vacant lots. and as the depart
ments had all been working together
he thought II advisable 10 agree on
some form. of procedure.
men on the various districts could
watch all building operations and see
where refuse was being dumped
Chief Of Police Black said that orders
10 this effect would be issued today
and a check viii be placed on the
drivers Of carts Mayor Howell sug-
gested that the places where rubbish
il needed for filing land could be an
nounced in the papers, and teamsters
could cart material there.
II was thought best to have an in
veetigation of the condition of the
lots nladc by the officials after which
they could appear before City Couu-
oil and ask for SIS assistance This
inspection most likely viii be made
OH Tuesday of next week.
IN event that Council cunnot assist
financially, Mayor Howell said he
thought plea for funds made
through The local newspapers would
be of great help, and he was willing
tn cont butte. AS an illustration II
was claimed that with a fund OF
$1,000, four double teams with large
force of men could clean up the lots
about the city for forty days. In ad-
ldition the street ana sewer DEPART
meni teams also could be used IN the
work Mayor Howell also suggested
thai all civic organizations cooperate
in the work which has for its object
the hetterment of the city's condition.
ln speaking of the endeavors being
tmade by those living near vacant lots
TO improve them or at least prevent
them from becoming unslightly, May

EnoIish State Horses.

A curious interest attaches to the
cream-colored horses which draw the
state coach of the sovereign on cere-
monial occasions. These ponies" as
they are called, represent the white
horse which was the standard of the
ancient Saxons. and Is still preserved
in the royal shield of the House of
Hanover. by which 1t was rei~ntroduced
into England. The famous white
horse carved on the slope of Ellington
hill in Berkshire is a proof that 1t was
known TO our Saxon ancestors, who
thus recorded their great victory over
the Danes. Who has not heard of THE
Securing of the White Horse ?"-Lon-
don Chronicle.

which always has sturdily voted ac-
cording to its protection sentiments.
However this may be, there is plenty
of evidence that free sugar in three
years will finish the industry in
Louisiana. What makes the action of
the Democratic party in this cas- cen
surable, if not contemplate, is the
fact that it was not in earnest when it
put sugar in the free list bills in the
sixty-second congress, but was paying

LOUISIANA OUGHT TO HAVE
AJOWN

The expected happened when Sena-
toI thornton, of Lou ~sitna, announced
in the tariff debate that he would not
vote for the Underwood bill: as a rule
Democrats from Louisiana do not sup
port Democratic revision bills and
they are found voting for Republican
tariff measures affording protection to
American industries. Louisiana is a
stalwart protection state as well as a
solid Democratic state. In Louisiana.
which produces p%roftably rice and
sugar under the Payne law, the tariff
is a local question.
But Senator Thornton was not quite
correct when he said that "the Demo
cratic platform adopted at Baltimore
never demanded expressly or inferen-
ON sugar" The platform must be read
in the light of speeches made in the
convention by leading Democrats. The
Hon. Oddie M. James, permanent
chairman, excluded in the free list
bills passed by the Democratic MAORI
ty in the sixty-second congress-, among
them a free sugar bill, and said: "T
believe in free sugar. 1t will save ev-
cry householder in this country two
cents upon every pound of sugar" He
made this calculation without blush
ing. And the temporary chairman,
Judge Alton b. Parker, said in his
"keynote Speech
"Under sagacious and intripid
Democrtic leadership special bills have
been passed having for their purpose
a revision of the tariff downward,
Ultimately to a revenue basis. These
bills are known as "free ist'-wool,
cotton, metals, chemicals, sugar and
excise
In the competition for the nomina-
tion for president. the delegates from
