A FEW WORDS no rAxPAYERs.

A PRO2Os Of the controversy that has been be-
"a tween Robert NJ. Burns. formerly Receiver OF
Taxes and County Taxes, and the Wilmington Term
nal Company relative the payment of county taxes
by that corporation think the taxpayers Of Will
mington entitled to certain information The Ter
minal Company. which is holding its littoral lands
along the Delaware river for speculative purposes and
which also hopes to receive free gift OF 600
OF the peoples waterfront land and Federal bulk
head and an that will cost hundreds OF thousands of
dollars does not pay cent OF tax to the city Of
Wilmington. although practically all Of its specula-
tive marsh-lsnd holdings within the city's
porate limits We might add that it is called upon
10 pay by way Of county tax a miserable pance that
would not be exacted from with a $4,000 house
in the built-up portion of the city
This is the Wilmington Terminal Company
that expects to be the States beneficiary under the
Bulkhead Law of 1901 and that looks to the Federal
Government to build It a three-me bulkhead SO the
company may claim title to the State land.
This is the Wilmington Terminal Company
that has driven pile a spike toward car
ryng out the conditions prescribed by that Bulkhead
Law which, we're the law constitutional, would make it
the autocrat Of the port Of Wilmington.
BY availing itself OF a tax exemption law IL permits
the taxpayers OF Wilmington to pay the taxes that
II rightfuly should pay into the city treasury and
by a low assessment it permits the taxpayers of the
county at large pay part OF what should be its just
county taxes.
On top of that it 500 acres OF the peoples
waterfront land for nothing and Federal bulkhead
and MI for nothing; and within less than year it
has asked that the city give it boulevard and
street system and other Improvements for next to
nothing.
Is it any wonder that the alert citizenship Of VIII
mngton is demanding that the present Legislature
shall repeal those sections Of the Bukhead Law Of 1901
which make the Wilmington Terminal Company Ne
conditional benofciaries under its provisions?
Is it any wonder that City Solicitor Hastings and
Councilman Stover and his associates are sending leg
isation TO Dover7
Is il any wonder that many prominent citizenss of
Wilmington have appealed to City Council to take ac-
ton that waterfront for the city?
And is IL any wonder that Wilmington Waterfront
Association is in OF formation by those who
are insistent that the Wilmington Terminal Company
shall not be permitted. through that Bulkhead Law
and the bounty OF tho Federal Government 10 get a Az
with that waterfront land which belongs to the poo
pie of this state and which should decided to the city
without delay?
The time has arrived when every good citizen of Will
mingon should voice his protest and insist that the viii
mington Terminal Company and its associates shall
cease from this time forward to figure even as pros
pectve and conditional benefcares under that Bulk
head Law.

MOVING PICTURE FILM
GOT HIM In TROUBLE

Two women and a man, husband
OF one OF the women, all residents of
this city figured in a mix up which
came near disrupting one. if not two
families, last week and had rot one
of the women explained at the time
she did, the mix up might have be-
come serious. AS il IS, all persons
concerned are now laughing at the
joke which came near being serious,
for the man.
The man figured in the firemen's
parade during the Old Home Week
celebration last October and his pic
ture was caught in the moving picture
flms taken at the time. Recently
one woman, friend of the mans
wife, saw the. film in Pennsgrove and
when she returned, she informed the
mans wife that she had seen her
husband in that place on that day.
II so happened that the man was
away that day and his wife deduced
that he had been at Penusgrove. She
told him of his supposed trip to
Pennsgrove and all denials we're un-
availing
AT last the man went to the woman
who said she had seen him i'm Penns-
grove, asked for an explanation and
when she inisted that she had seen
him theer he began to think he had
double. The mystery cleared, how
ever, when the woman told of seeing
him marching down Market street in
this city while sitting in a moving
picture house in Pennsgrove.
This explanation cleared the trou-
bled waters and all those involved
had a good laugh at the others ex-
penSc.
