PAGE AND HIS SPEECH.

A AMBASSADOR PAGE has been in England only a
"A short time and yet he seemingly has succeeded
in getting himself into the hottest sort of hot water
and, incidentally dragged the Wilson administration
into the seaming bath. IT, in his speech before one
OF the largest OF Londons commercial ORGANIZATIONS
the Democratic ambassador gave utterance to the sen
timents attributed to him. he has placed President VIII
son in most embarrassing position with respect to
his proposed repeal Of that section Of the Panama
Canal act which exempts American coastwso craft
from the payment Of tolls for passing through the
canal
That proposal by the President already has been de-
nounced surrender to Great Britain On top OF
that comes the from London that Ambassador
Page told the Britons that when the United states
built the canal it did with the pleasant anticipa-
tion that Great Britain would be its chief user
II is barely possible that Ambassador Page was mis-
quoted. determined effort is being made in Wash

his interesting speech Pending its arrival and

NEGRO YOUTHS
ARE INDICTED.
They Are Charged With At
tempting to Assault
Women

SALISBURY, Nd. March a.
Marvin Elsey. a negro hoy. IL years
OF age, was indicted by the grand Jury
yesterday on the charge of attempt
TO assault Mrs. Horace Messick, a
prominent white woman OF Nanticoke,
about fifteen miles from this city. The
crime was committed last November.
Mrs. Messick had started to visit a
nearby neighbor, and while going
through a short piece Of woods Elzey
attacked her. Her cries brought help
after she had been cut and bruised
about the face and neck and her
clothing torn in shreds Elzey, who
looks to be 20 years old. was captured
and confessed the crime. The com
munity was deeply stirred and only
the prompt arrival of the sheriff from
this city prevented a lynching
Another true bill brought in by
the grand jury was against Thomas
Stewart, colored, aged Is years.
charged with attempt to assault Mary
p. Dutton, colored, domestic of 80.
Both these cases will be tried early

pOIsoNs ANp oARELrssNEss.

CEvERAL days ago a Seaford woman swallowed pol
- tablets in mistake for quinine pills 1t was
with difficulty that physicians, hastily summoned,
saved her life
We call attention to that circumstance because it is
one which should carry warning into hundreds, If
not thousands OF Delaware households in which, from
time to time poisonous liquids tablets and powders
left carelessy in cupboards, table drawers and
other places where they may be picked up and used
by any member Of the famy-child or grown-up
Such careless placing deadly substances has caused
many tragedies and much heartbreakng regret in the
United States.
There is no home in which poison, ii one be needed
may not be put away under lock and key and safe
from the hands Of every except that member Of
the househald who knows It's deadly nature And yet
the deadest OF poisons left laying around if
they were perfectly harmless.
Would it not be well for all Delawareans who now
guilty of such carelessness take warning from
the case of the Seaford and thereby remove
from their households menace of their own crea-
tion?

RAUGHLEY,s HANDIcAP.

nUBL1C sentiment in Delaware is Overwhelmingly IN
favor Of the appointment of Alfred Raughley, Of

Mr.. Raughley is Senator Saushury's candidate but
because he is Deawarean and the people Of this
State think it should be recognised particularly when
Maryland, of the two States in the district has
had the office years. short they feel that
it is Deawares turn to have It.
If Mr.. Raughey succeeds in obtaining the position
the feeling Of satisfaction will not be confined to the
Democratic side. For instance former Governor John
HUM and Former Governor Simeon s. Pennewin both
Republicans have expressed the hope that he will win
the place. Nor are they alone the Republican side
Many other good Republicans who have no use for
Mr. Raughey as Democrat and less use for Senator
salisbury, his chief supporter favor the appointment
on the score OF State pride, which knows no party
lines
But those who favor Mr. Raughley are not M
conscious Of the fact that he handicapped seriously
in the fight Maryland demands the appointment. The
united Maryland delegation in Congress from that
State has Joined in that demand It has made it clear
