cHuRCHMAN,s GO0n M0RK.

r UDGE CHURCHAiAN continues to win golden opin-
ions from the public by the energy and ability he
displays in conducting the business OF the Municipal
Court in this city.
Many persons have adequate conception of the
greet volume of business he daily Neither
DO they realize what clearing house his court is for
criminal matters which within its jurisdiction It
estimated that he dsposes of average OF twenty
ave cases day. The iustness of his decisions rarely
Is called into question
In fact, Judge Churchman has mcde of the tribunal
4 real court It has ceased to be joke. The public
respects it and the ev-doer fears it, The Judge also
has placed it above suspicion It is looked upon as
place wherein the scales Of justice evenly balanced
ut all times and where the weights are fair and true
Tor the determination Of the guilt innocence the
defendant at bar. That is it should be- and as it
always should have been.
The judge has respect for his court by making
It respectable. He has public respect for himself
as a judge by demeaning himself in a judicial manner
he has shown that has higher regard for the
and dignity Of the position has than he him
self entertains for it. He holds to the theory that
and, to the best Of his ability with tn,
restrictions which at times hedge him about he make
Justice and Common Sense walk hand-in-hand in th
tribunal which he has rehabiltated in the compare
lively short time he has presided it, The quality

COMRAT sTRIKF WITH LOCKOUT.

CTRIKE has been met by lockout in San Francisco
- The outlook is that it will the effect Of put
ting end to the labor troubles in the building trades
in that city.
month the union painters there demanded
higher wages. They struck when the demand was
fused Their employers did their utmost induce them
to return to work. They declined.
Within the last week the Building Trades Employers
Association Of that city took cognizance the trouble
ployed in all lines Of building trade The result was
that $4,000 union suddenly found themselves
fronted by the possibility of being thrown out Of
work, with their employers determined not to
employ them until the striking painters should agree
end their strike, That threat resulted yesterday in
agreement to arbtrate the questions in dispute.
This plan of using the lockout to combat the strike
is not in the building trades. II has been resorted
TO frequently in New York city and elsewhere The
pity Of it all is that rule It affects detrmentay
and in instances, disasterousy, many persons who
have not struck and who have desire strike. It
is the OF the of organized employers against
that Of organized employees. In other words reversal
OF the strike principle Like the strike it hurts both
sides and also the general public
It is matter Of regret that it has to be
sorted to by employers to maintain the balance in
labor disputes. In fact the lockout is much less
employers do not like resort to it except in what
they deem to be situations which imperatyey call
for reprsas through organized action. The strike
which preceded the lockout threat in Francisco
created in that city condition which was deplored
greatly by the American public that could
continue many days. Now there will an honorable
compromise, If the results in other places through
the strike and the lockout coming in conflict

FARM LAID An PRICEs.

- ELAWARE farm land particularly Of the sort
- adaptable for fruit culture, is advancing rapid
ly in value is shown not only by sales actually
made within the last year but also by the asking
prices at which farm properties held in the fruit
districts
We know of instance in which man purchased,
five years ago. a 90-acre for $4,000. Within four
years Of the purchase offered $4,000 cash for
IT, and refused to sell at that price. though he
had done little improve the property following its
purchase.
That is only one Of hundreds of instances affecting
desirable property in the rural sections. 1t augurs
well for the and indicates clearly that those
who wish to possess good farms will lose money by
delay in the matter purchasing them. on all such
properties the inclination of prices is upward.
Nor is the upward tendency confined TO fine prop
critics. There tracts of land in Kent and Sussex
counties that, decade ago, might have been had
for a few dollars that have market value to-
day five TO ten times what they had then. In fate there
are men right here in Wilmington who owned tracts
down the state years ago that would have made them
rich had they held them for present prices instead of
sacrificing them at the prices that then prevailed.
The time is rapidly approaching when smaller farms
and more intelligent and intensive farming will con-
vert Delaware into veritable garden and when even
present prices for good farm land will small

BURNING BARN TO GET RATS.

var Illnesses who represented 10000 miles OF rail-
wv road in this country have appeared before the
senate Interstate Commerce Commission in Washing
ton and protested against what they look upon as
ruinous features OF the Wilson administrations
Antitrust bills They insisted that within the last
nine months their lines had lost more than 100000
600 and that the railroads should be aided, and not
harassed by further harmful legislation such is pro-
posed
The objections Of the railroad heads was directed
chiefly to three features Of the bills that have been
framed One is that which prohibits interloclng d-
rectorates Another is that which would make it un-
lawful for one common carrier to the stock Of
another common carrier. The third is that provision
which gives to the Interstate Commerce Commission
supervisory power the issuance of securities by
such corporations.
1T seems to that you are burning down the barn

MENACE AND BENEFIT OF PUBLIC TROUGHs.

THE Philadelphia Board Of Health has placed a ban
upon common drinking troughs for horses and
other animals 1t has done it at the request Of the
State Livestock Sanitary Board. which asserts that
glanders and other diseases being spread
stanty by the use of such watering appliances in
public places An order has been issued by the Board
Of Health directing that all troughs in of
and in other public places within the corporate limits
be abolished as quickly possible.
Such reforms, like glanders, spread. II is all
unlikely that city is close to Philadelphia
here will urge that the common drinking troughs
in Wilmington be put out of for the same reason
that has been advanced in Philadelphia and. presum-
ably elsewhere by the State Livestock Sanitary
Of Pennsylvania. VI to have such a reform GER
tanly it should be accompanied by municipal legisla-
tion which will protect the horses here against the bru-
tality and thoughtessness of many drivers who are
not to driving their horses up public trough
and permitting them to drink their full, but who are
too lazy Indifferent to water them from buckets.
Public drinking troughs for animals may spread dis
ease but they also alleviate much animal suffering
especially in weather Certainly if they be done
away with something humane in point of thirst
deviation should be substituted in streets.

New News Of Yesterday
The Honor Shown by
Southern Merchants in
POSt-Bellum Days
By Holland.

was chatting recently with a
gentleman who is near OF kin to the
late James sussford, who in the mid
die part of the last century was a
merchant Of widely established repu-
tation whose home Offices were in
New York City, but who maintained
agencies elsewhere in the country,
and especially throughout the South.
His business was chiefly with merch-
ants. retailers and jobbers, in the
Southern States II was always a
satisfactory business, especially satis-
factory because Of the manner in
which Southern merchants maintain
ed their credit, seeming to be especi-
ally sensitive with respect to their
commercial honor and obligations.
Mr.. Sussford," said his relative of
a younger generation to me. found
that his business was considerably
impaired, not merely because Of the
loss of his trade in the South at the
time Of the civil war; but especially
because Of the inability of his debtors
in the South to meet their obligations
to him.
Long after the close of the civil
war, Mr.. Sussford was accustomed
to say to his friends that whatever
the political difficulties and antagon-
isms may have been in the recon-
structon epoch which began i'm
mediately after the close of the civil
war there was, on the part of the
great majority of Southern merch-
J nj trrl.n fo
desire to cultivate friendly business
!. relations with merchants of the
North. with whom they had dealt
/ prior to 1861.
This attitude of the merchants of
the South was in Mr.. Sussford's
| opinion, one of the most influential
J factors in bringing about a complete
/ restoration of friendly relations
MANY of the merchants with whom
{ Mr.. Sussford dealt communicated
/ with him after the war closed, saying
that although they presumed they
were under no legal obligations to
pay their debts, nevertheless they felt
under moral obligations to do so, al
though they probably would be COM
PEELED to pay off by installments.
About ten years after the close of
the civil war, Mr.. Sussford was in
I Richmond, Va. AS he was walking
along the principal business street
I some one called him by name. He
stopped and was greeted by a merch-
ant with whom he formally had large
dealings The merchant said TO him
I Mr.. Sussford. when the war broke
! out l owed you about S1,500 for
merchandise. 1 have not forgotten
that debt II was my purpose to
call on you when / went to New
York and pay the debt. But if you
will 90 with me now to my office
l will pay you in full
within an hour Mr.. Sussford re-
ceived the full amount of his obli-
cation. He often spoke OF this as
an illustration of the honorable
spirit manifested by merchants and
business men of the South who sur
vived the ravages of the civil war
and also determined to set apart as
much as possible of their gains.
which at first were slow, toward
liquidating their obligations with
merchants of the North. Mr. Suss-
ford knew of a number of other In
stances of voluntary liquidations by
business men of the South Of mer-
camille obligations incurred before
the outbreak of the civil war"
