General Carranza's Views.

SaltillO. Mcx-Mnister of Foreign
Affairs Fabola Monday made the fol
lowing statement regarding the views
Of General Carranza on the provision
al presidency.
"TO accept the plan Of a provis-
ionai presidency of Mexico it would
bc necessary entirely to reform the
plan Of Guadalupe, and secure con
sent Of all generals. which would
not be possible. The provisional pres
idcut would be forced to act in ac-
cordance with obligations and rights
defined by the constitution, and could
not dictate without being subject to
attack, or provoking armed opposition
if he attempted to apply laws that
would be necessary for the social
needs of the Mexican people.
"VenustiaBo Carranza is DESTROYS
of certain urgent reforms which in
clude such as the abolition of com
pany COmmissaries which tend TO
peon the laborcr; home rule for mu-
inequalities; reforms i'm the general
land tax laws: reforms in tariffs pro-
viding for free trade; reforms OF civil
and penal laws and others; these
laws to be enforced until the re-cs-
adjustment of constitutional order
ana later ratified or rectified by con
gress."
Saltillo. Mex-General Obregon has
administered terrific defeat to the
army of 5000 federaIs outside Guada-
lajara after four days severe fight
ing, according to a dispatch received
Wednesday by General Carranza.
Obrcgon reported that he was at
Ahualulco. near Guadalajara, when
thirty troops trains, carrying more
than 5000 federals, came out from
Guadalajara to attack. ObregOn sta
toned his own troops outside Ahua-
lulco, checked the federal advance,
ard after q despcrp'e battle put the
fcderals to flight. capturing ten of
their trains containing a large guam
tity of arms, ammunition and other
supplies.
a large number of prisoners also
was captured and as the character of
the fighting is said TO have been most
severe il is inferred the casualties on
both sides were heavy.
General Carranza was officially ad-
yised of the fall of Guadalaiara before
the constitutionalist forces at noon
Wednesday
Further details of the fighting at
Guadalaiara said 5000 federal prison
ers with much arms, ammunition and
supplies were captured.
The line of combat EXTENDED over
eighty miles. with General Blanco in
command Of the vanguard of Obre-
CONS forces. The cOnstitutionalists
were reported in complete control of
the city and to have occupied the
federal palace.
The rout of the federals was said 10
be complete and that they had been
cut off from the City of Mexico by
the forces of General Blanca which
had detoured from Ameca 10 destroy
the federal lines OF communication
The fedorals were reported scattered
in all directions and great punishment
inflicted on them in retreat.

Who pays in advance without skip

Who takes out her dollar and offers
it gladly,
And casts round the office a halo of
cheer.
Who never says, "Stop it, [ cannot
afford it, ,"
Or ''getting more papers each day

But always says, "Send it, the
whole family likes it
1t fact, it is one indispensable

How welcome she is when she steps

How she makes our heart throb
and our eyes fairly dance!
We outwardly thank her-we in

IMPROVEMENTS SUGGESTED

Perhaps no one thing will add so
much to the attractiveness Of New
ark as improved streets. A subject
under discussion for years, it has
always seemed impossible to pro-
vide for this much-needed improve
ment.
The decision of Council on Mon
day night to make permanent
street is worthy Of more than ordi-
nary commendation. Reports show
that the improvement will be made
OH a business basis. The water
main, the source of constant ex-
pense and worry, will be recaulkel
before the road bed is made.
We doubt if Council realizes just
how well they are building for New
ark. 1t is no small job and at first
glance, one would suppose the cost
would be too great strain at this
time. But we agree heartily with
action of Council, and feel that a
permanent improvement, while ex-
pensive at first cost, will prove to
be good business in the end.
Just while the streets and pave
ments are torn up, due to the install
latiOn of the sewer, would it not be
good thing for property owners
to finish pavements in concrete.
We realize the cost of owning
property in Newark just now is an
expensive proposition. But this lit
tie extra expense would make a
permanent sidewalk. 1t would not
need further attention for years
and would add much to the ap-
pearance of our streets and our
property.
This is merely suggestive. 1t is
too much just now to ask Council
to authorize this improvement.
This suggestion is made particu-
larly to property owners on Main
street between the two depots. The
pavements here are considerably
worn as it is and any patch work
following the sewer installation
will certainly not improve them
1t may appear as a hardship
which we are willing to share with
you. But it is a sound business
proposition. 1t would be return
compliment to Council for their
effort; it would be an asset to the
town and selfishly, an advantage to
the individual property owner.

DR.. HARTER

The granting Of Dr. Harter s re.
quest to be released from the exact
ing and detailed duties of the exc.
cutive in order to devote all his
time to class room work is simply
another recognition of his devotion
to the interests of Delaware Col
lege. Coming here in 1885 as a
teacher, he has devoted his whole
time and energy to the welfare of
the institution. His elevation to
the presidency upon the resigna-
ton of DR.. Raub was not an elec-
ton: it was a merited honor for
services rendered and an expression
of confidence in his sincere interest
always 50 mOdestly expressed,-or
rather lived, for his modesty is al
ways Of a delicacy that throws
credit from himself to some one Of
his associates.
His interest III the institution
can be best expressed in recognizing
the % years of devoted service.
During that time, he has seen and
played a part in its development
from the one building, the old dor
mitory, practically local institu-
ton, to the present institution of
Statewide interest, recognition and
influence. Throughout it all he has
given his counsel with a quiet un-
assuming dignity.
1t is only fair.-he has earned
the ri ight-that he devote his time
to the laboratory and class room
a matter for congratulation.
First of all, DR.. Harter is a student .
and his return to the classroom is |.
Illustrative of this we cannot re-
frain from quoting the words of the |
late DR.. Purnell, beloved and hon
ored by all who knew him:
1.-The head of the education
al system in Delaware is truly
the head. Without doubt. he
is the Master Student of Del
aware. His breadth of reading
knows no bounds. He is the
one man here who could ac-
cept with profit any position in
the faculty and bring to it a
wealth Of knowledge. He is
Master Student. -

proposed organization is to create a
pubic sentiment for the care and
use OF ornamental trees and to eff
feet some concerted opposition to
the ruthless onslaught by thought
less individuals and corporations.
The campaign will attempt, also, to
create love for trees, urge wise
planting under supervision of
Council.
Judging from the appearance of
Dover s shaded streets, we did not
suppose they were troubled with
the merciless slaughter as it is
practiced in Newark.
The Post has repeatedly called
attention to this neglect and lack of
sympathetic supervision but ap-
parently has gained no serious
consideration of any one in author
ity or recognition from any one
sympathetic with the movement.
The trees in Newark are of no
small attraction to our visitors and
Invariably they are the subject of
t1atterlng comment. Yet every
resident knows that this beauty is
being lessened ever year for lack of
care and supervision.
Rather than this shameful neg
lect, we should be giving care, in
telligent in its supervision, and we
should be doing our part in lending
a beauty to the homes of our
children. These trees planted so
carefully by former generations
need our attention. The disgrace
ful hacking by telephone and tele-
graph companies should be stop
ped.
Let us take recognition of this be-
fore it is too late, for Newark with
out her trees-well, 1T MUST
NOT BE.
