THE PROPOsED IONT BUILDNe.

From the Morning News.
The campaign in favor of the joint
county and city building goes forwarl
in commendable manner. Another
meeting held under the auspices of
the Levy Court was held yesterday
in the dupont building, at which
resolution was unanimously adopted
in favor of the project, and this reso-
luton will be conveyed TO the Levy
Court. SO far as is known no senti-
ment in opposition to the plan has
developed, but those who are direct
ing the movement for the proposed
new edifce intend to bring out OBJ
iections in any part of the county II
there be such. IL is desired that a
question Of so great Importance shall
be thoroughly considered and debated,
that il should be looked at from every
angle, and this is the purpose of these
meetings; not to act hastily, but after
public sentiment has been thoroughly
canvassed.
As compared with the sentiment in
favor Of the Improvement there has
been very little said in opposition. 1t
is believed by the great majority of
I persons who have expressed them
selves regarding the matter that the
proposed new building would be a
beautiful ornament to the city. and
more than that it is something de-
manded for the practical service OF
the city and county.
I The gentlemen who have furthered
the project and who are giving much
time to the matter, think the plan is
perfectly feasible. and that the county
and city can well afford the expense
that it will not be a heavy burden
upon either.
OF the desirability of the joint
building there Is no question. The
present court house is inadequate 10
meet the needs of the growing busi-
ness Of the county, and we have lone
been in need of a new city hall. Even
should the construction of the JONI
building be not undertaken, in very
short time the city would have tC
make provision for a new public
building If this is true what better
plan could be adopted than the unlof
of county and city in joint building
such as that which is now being SC
favorably considered at the meetings
held for that purpose?
II the building is constructed tner'
is not fair-minded or patriotic ciu
zen of the county OF city who VIII no
rejoice III the fact that so handsome
and useful an improvement has beer
made. Happily, there seems to b'
almost a unity of opinion in both cit
and county with respect to the matter

PENNSY PLANS GREAT Il
IMPROVEMENTS AT PHILA.

After two years of study made by
experts appointed by the fennsyi-
yania Railroad Company. plans for
the remodeling Of the Broad Street
Station at Philadelphia and the cleo
trihcation of the subway lines, to cost
about sixty millions Of dollars, have
been completed
Interest is also being shown by the
officials in the proposed transit i'm
provements, particularly in the
Broad Street Subway.
Among the other projects under
consideration is the tunnel under the
Schuylkill river for the use of the
electric trains just as soon as this
system of motive power is adopted.

What has the County Treasurer OF Sussex county
done that Representative Hammond should wish to
pass law to fine that official 800 for each onense
Of failing to attend meeting Of the Trustees Of the
Poor? Those meetings must be wonderfully prosy
when they necesstate such legislative action to com
pei attendance If the Trustees of/he Poor will come
TO New Castle county think trustees can teach
them few MISUNDERSTANDING stunts that will beat
all the laws the Legislature may pass in that behalf
In view of Representative Hammonds intimate ac-
quantance with affairs at Farnhurst it is astonishing
that he did suggest such alternative before con-
senting to father the bill.

The New Senator.
'ilmington Sunday Star.

wilmington SUNDAY star.
After chasing the senatorial rain
bow for a score Of years or more, the
Perennial Candidate has at last ar
rived at the end of his quest, has flow
cred into the Successful Candidate,
and will soon have his hands upon the
coveted prize. Persistence, they say,
is a virtue, and Mr.. Salisbury pos
sesses it to a degree that commands
admiration, Of a kind. We are not go
ing to pretend,-now that it is all
over,-that we like Mr.. Saulsbury's
election; neither are we going to tear
our hair about it. We accept the re-
suit pIiilosophically, and shall go right
along as if nothing had happened.
We opposed Mr.. Salisbury for good
reasons, and they are good reasons
still, but they have lost practical force
from the fact that he has been sue
cessful. We did our best to keep him
out Of the Senate; perhaps Mr.. Sauls-
bury will agree TO that. We gave him
the very best in the way of opposition
that we had in our shop, and we gave
it to him in liberal measure. In this
patriotic endeavor we had the able as
sistance of many of the very best men
of Delaware. But Mr.. Salisbury has
beaten us all. We cheerfully doff our
chapeau to him, and hope he will
make a better winner than he has
heretofore been a loser; for in his
many defeats of the past he has not
lost gracefully. He has been surly to
men. and became embittered toward
them, for no other reason than that
they have opposed his aspirations for
public Office.
The Star has no regrets, and we
shall now proceed to sit up and look
I pleasant, and shall judge Mr.. Sauls-
bury, not by what he has done in the
past, or is alleged to have done, in his
struggles for Office, but by what he
does in the future as senator. Let
the dead past bury its dead" This
seems to be partly Mr.. Saulsbury's
thought, too, for he says "all Demo-
Gratis look alike to him." That sounds
good as far as it goes. But would it
not be better if he said all citizens
look alike to him? We suggest this
change as an amendment, not OF
course as applicable to the offices to be
dispensed by him-that would be ex-
pecting too much; but as applicable
to the high service he will be expected
to render TO all the people Of Della
ware in his capacity as member OF
the United States Senate.
Senator Salisbury now has an op-
portunity to show to many of his fell
low citizens that they have been mis-
taken in their estimate of him-that
he is not merely the self-seeking poli-
tician they have long regarded hinL
We say sincerely, for our own part
that we shall rejoice if he succeeds IN
dispelling this unpleasant impression;
and we pledge him every assistance -
our power to that end We can sa
. this frankly, because we want moth
ing at his hands except what may be
rightfully expected and demanded by
the humblest citizen, namely, loyal
,, and effective service in the interests
of all the people of the State and OF
/ the country.

crsrOMs nIsTRIcT FIGHT IS on.

~UR Chamber OF Commerce has splendid
~ opportunity to show what II do for the pro-
lection OF the vital interests Of the city Of Wilmington
n IL can defeat the project abolish the local GUS
toms district and to make 1t merely part Of the Phil
adelphia district Il will perform exceedingly im-
portant public service and the gratitude Of the
people The energy displayed by it in the prelimin-
airy steps taken yesterday is good augury OF success
The fight is TO be carried Washington by one Of the
most representative committees of manufacturers and
merchants ever organized in Wilmington There will
be determined effort made to prevent Philadelphia
from robbng our city the prestige enjoys through
having customs Office OF it's own. Many Wilmington
ians who in the past have done everything possible
TO assist Congressman Moore Of Philadehipa to pop
uarize himself by supporting public projects In whch
he had a keen interest resent the fact that he has
become a party to this plan TO strike such blow at
Wilmington.
II is only by having an alert citizenship at it's back
that our new Chamber OF Commerce can hope to ac-
complish the mission for which IL was organzed-the
conservation of the material interests of city The
appeal that will be made to the manufacturers and
merchants to prevent the consummaton of this sug-
gested act OF Federal injustice affecting our customs
district should meet with whoe-hearted response Nor
should it stop with blocking the customs district con-
sodation plan. II should be extended to embrace
restoration Of our former status internal reye-
nue. district Several years ago internal revenue
district was consolidated with the Baltimore district
and today the Office here is a branch of the main
office in Baltimore. and that main Office receives all
the credit for internal collections made in
this city and State Last month they aggregated $780,
600. That is much heavier monthly rate than was
the average for 1909 when the total receipts Of the
branch internal Office here were siiS000 Now
that the fight the wrong city that is pro-
posed should prevented and the that has been
committed should be rightod In the matter OF GUS
toms dues Wilmington should protest yehomenty
against being made tributary TO Philadelphia and it
should insist that il longer be required to be trb-
utary to Baltimore in the matter Of revenue collec-
tons
II have alert citizenship, now is the time for

There was a good attendance at

Monday night, when the members
we're stirred by the earnest and
timely talk of the Rev. Francis
Felten, pastor of st. Augustine's
church and chaplain of the council.
In plain but forceful language
Father Felten told the young men
the way they should go, pointing out
the duty they owe God and their
country. He also laid strong en-
phasis on the necessity or attendance
at meetings and participation in the
discussion of all matters pertaining
to the future welfare of the Y. NJ. /.
Memorial resolutions on the death of
Joseph Bartsch were adopted, and an

PRIZE COURT
VIII Have Record Break
ing Docket FOR Next
Week.

The Prize Court in connection
with the euchre and lotto to be
given next Thursday and Friday in
the school hall at Thirteenth and
Market streets, for the benefit of st.
Patrick's newt parochial school, will
open with the largest docket ever re-
corded in Louisville. For the past
month the ladies of the congregation
have been preparing for this event
and every detail has been carefully
arranged. Tickets are being sold at
twenty-five cents, and with each is
coupon that may be worth $3.50 in
gold and gives the holder a standing
in court. The prize court is a new
and novel method of entertainment
ard will be found very amusing. For
years the ladies of st. Patrick's have
been earnest workers for all charity
undertakings in Louisville, and now
that they are helping Father Cronin
in the work of building fine school,
they feel justified in calling upon
their frineds for assistance.
