DELAWARE AND THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

from the Dover Index
Senator Saulsbury's inability to land
the intcrng. revenue collcctorship for
Alfred Raughley is exceedingly humiliat-
ing IL is humliating to Mr.. Raughley's
friends, who were sincere in their belief
that their candidate was large enough
for the position, and that his experience
in this very department p years ago,
when he was vouched for by Judge Gray
and Senator Bayard, coupled with Mr..
Raughley's prominence as a delegate TO
the Baltimore convention, where he en-
supported President VIII
son from start to finish, made him an
easy man 10 win. Surely Alfred Raugh-
ley, under the peculiar circumstances,
was the ideal candidate. When il came
TO Delaware support for the collectorship
Mr. Raughley had mat. No more repre-
sentative delegation could be desired
than the 100 Dclawareans who appeared
before President Wilson in Mr.. Ilaugh-
ley's behalf.
Mr.. Raughley's defeat is humiiating
to Delaware, which, while a small State.
is Justly proud of her achievements and
hen men. Delaware has always been
small. but she has been OF sufficient inn
portancc 10 have foreign ministers, cabi-
net officers and other officials of the FIRST
magnitude In tne present instance it
was given out that Mr.. Raughley would
unauestionahly be appointed. and his
friends were confidently expecting him
10 lie thus honored. While the situation
is mortifying to AIR. Raughlcy's friends,
there is sorncthing larger than the indi-
'vidual, and that is the State. This de-
feat is a blow to State pride. We were
told that senator Saulsbury's influence
with tho administration, would be so po-
tent that he could secure for Delaware
several times her quota Of federal pa
tronage. and yet armed with the logic
Of the situation and backing one of the
picturesque Wilson national delegates
he has failed. Senator Salisbury has
been unable TO secure for rs the. position
TO which Delaware is entitled.

EDITORIAL OPINION

the matter is that most of them are
r-capitalized or oyer-honded, and
are trying to earn dividends on
capitalization and bonded indebted
ness out OF all proportion to their
real worth. Watering stock has
grown to such an extent that it is
hard to tell the real worth of many

or later there will have to be fair

The Journal IN this issue is able

to the fact that they had to be re-
