BUSINESS MEN ARE AROUSED.

- ITH American business being assaied on all
wv sides by demagogues and designing poliu-
clans it surprising that it is organizing to re-
sist and repuse such unwarranted and harmful at
taohs. The passive attitude of business in the
past has lent encouragement those thoughtess and
vicious persons who keep themselves in the public
eye by preaching the gospel that big business is bad
and that all successful business is tainted
with corporate or individual dishonesty. That pas
siyity has led to such erroneous preachments md
ing lodgment and taking root in the minds Of many
American men who naturally disposed to be fair
in forming their judgments.
II these persistent assaults upon business being
made simply and solely by thoughtess and msin-
formed persons they would be bad enough. But when
It is known that they the stock-in-trade of pot
cal demagogues and professional agitators who act
from vicious and unworthy impulse the demand that
they be met and overcome becomes imperative
1t is pleasing to note that a national movement in
the interest OF the business Of the United States
has been naugurated in Chicago and that thousands
Of business men already have sgnhed to A. l. Schmidt,
the secretary Of the organization, their to
identity themselves actively with t. That organiza-
ton has adopted for its motto "The Life and Pros
perity of the Nation Depends the Success Of Bush
ness The sentiment expressed In that rallying cry
is applicable to Wilmington as It is to any other
community. The time has come when honest business
should meet and refute every unmerted or dis
honest attack upon meritorous and honest business.
Thoughtess persons must be taught that houghtless
discussion Of vital business questions withers beneath
the rays applied intelligence Vicious persons must
led to understand that vicousness be used
with safety against the commercial and industrial
terests Of our nation. The political demagogue who
seeks to array against class and labor against
capital for the sake attaining selfish ends must
be made to realize, by bitter experience at the polls
that while dishonest business is the legitimate target
for the shafts OF all honest men, honest has
rights which should and must be respected and
tected
It is thing for thoughtess persons to voice
fallacious opinions
It is thing for professional agitators cloak
their vicousness with the garment of civic hgh-mind
edness and endeavor to obtain for II public acceptance
Nor is there anything in the policy OF seeking
to make political capital out of the blood Of
honest and legitimate business and to array against
it those who are dependent upon It for support
The new thing is that the business Of our ma
ton at last being aroused to the necessity for
batting thoughtlessness. vciousness and demagogy

RAILROADS AND CRiTICIsM.

In these days there is disposition, fostered largely
by professional agitators, to criticize without stint

SUSSEX ROADS AND MARKERS.

From the Georgetown Journal
II seems to be a difficult matter to
press home to the members of the Sus-
sex County Levy Court the clamoring
demand that prevails in this county for
the erection of markers or sign posts
along the highways to serve as guides
to the travelling public. We reiterate
what we have said heretofore when we
say that the judiciary body of this
county could do nothing by the
expenditure Of n small sum, that would
be more pleasing to Sussex countians
than the erection of markers along our
public roads. Such a step would show
to the non-residents that we are pro-
gressive, and moreover would be a
great convenience to them in finding
their way about the county. As a mat
ter OF fact there are hundreds of per-
sons in Sussex county who do not know
the roads who would likewise be bene-
fitted.
The Kent County Levy Court recent
" decided to get estimates on one hum
dred and fifty finger boards for the
public roads in that county which will
be placed at conspicuous places for the
accommodation of the public. New Cas-
tie county has sign posts and now Kent
is to have them; but it seems that Sus-
sex is going to be behind the times as
usual.
