An UNpOpULAR REpEALER.

TT is the manifest duty of the State Senate to refuse
to in the action OF the House in cutting
of the annual State appropriation Of $4,000 to the
Delaware State Fair. The House acted unwisey in
passing the repeater yesterday It should be per-
mitted TO receive favorable report in the de-
Lucrative branch Of tho Legislature
The Delaware public enjoys the State Fair and APP
precatos its benefits. It is keenly averse TO having
such institution starved to death by legislative or
other process And yet that what viii result If the
Senate in and tho Governor approve of such
measure
Those who risked their own private funds in
bringing the State Fair into being were not acuatcd
by money -grubbng motives. They felt that such an
annual show would be a good thing for our city and
commonwealth and confident that when they had
demonstrated It's popularity and utility the State would
assist them in bearing the financial burden its main
tonancc. Nor they disappointed The Legisla-
ture passed a bill making annual appropriation of
81 600 The public applauded its act Delaware agri-
culturists were especially well pleased with it, And
now, in the absence any public demand necessity
for cutting off the appropriation the House under the
leadership of who should have been among the
last seek to impair destroy such institution.
passes by vote Of IS to 16, a repeal bill.
If the Senate concur in and IL the Governor APP
prove Of such legislation it the death of the
Delaware State Fair Certain advocates of the repeater
in the House asserted otherwise They mistaken
and gave misleading information their colleagues
IL Is said positively by men VINO nave an intimate
acquaintance with the attitude of the State Fair AS
sociaton that, II the State aid be cut off. the
tion will proceed to settle up its affairs and out OF
business. For the Legislature to compel it to pursue
such course would result in widespread regret and
dissatisfaction.
The people in the metropolitan and the rural
districts OF State want the fair continued. They
feel that the annual appropriation is money well
spent It not only assists in supplying pleasure
to thousands but also than pays for itself in adj
vertsng State and its products In fact the pre-
vaing opinion is that it would be the dearest Of
economy destroy the State Fair I'm effort TO

II thCro is to be legislative retrenchment, it should
be in other and more sensible directions, or falling
in that steps should be taken increase the State
revenues so they will be large enough to meet the
legitimate needs of the government

An Essay On Tact and So On
CFrom the New York SUM-

OF the passport frauds, a new chap
ter in whose history has just been
written in New York. the German
Ambassador at Washington said early
in January:
IF these things really have been
done they will have TO be proved. In
any case German officials in this cOun-
try had nothing 20 do with IT,"
IL is not often possible to get cir
cumstantial evidence and proofs as
strong as Thoreau's trout in the
milk" il is always easy to repudiate
unsuccessful or treacherous agents;
and even German dipIomatists pas
sion for truth may be veiled in con-
venient antiquities. Still. tenderly TO
be cherished is the beautiful charity
and benevolent instinct of the German
Naval Attache at Washington in re-
gard TO Germans here, and the case
Of Stcgler is exactly in point
We don't wish. however. TO lay any
special insistence on thar case, but TO
record that from the first the Prussian
propaganda and its methods. whether
official or supposedly unofficial. have
irritatod or angercd Americans. We
say "Prussian" to mark a distinction,
and beacuse that plethora OF feet ana
tactful amiability of manner that
has marked most of the official and
unofficial colporteurs of Kultur used
TO be peculiarly Prussian.
There is no just objection to legiti-
mate attempts TO affect public opinion

in favor Of the German side Of the
war Il has been the misfortune or
the fault of most of these German
instructors of benighted America that
In their manners and their ardors
they have shown too much of the
good old Junker whip-in-hand spirit
All this goes to the form and not the
merits but IL there has been and is
in the United States a disownable
but real official and semi-Oficial
control and command of German citi-
zens or American citizens for Ger
man uses abroad or here; il by trick
and false pretence American citizen

ored to serve a German purpose: if
insolence of word and improprietry OF

traced to the headquarters of the
little Prussian diplomatic war col
lege and intelligence department at
Washington. The Sun advises all
these excessive and muddling patri-
OTIS and their tools or dupes that they
are not dealing with Luxembourg or
Belgium or tho unfortunate blacks
of southwest Africa.
A good many Americans. perhaps
the great majority of Americans. while
honOring the zeal of Germans of Ger
many for Germany, are sick and tired
of the blend of arrogance. bluster and
deceit which characterizes so much
of the professional and official Ger

Our Stand For Neutral Riqhis
lITrom Do New York TrIbune.l

The United States is fully justified
in trying TO bring about an under
standing between Great Britain and
Germany which may help to mitigate
the harsh conditions under which
American commerce with Northern
Europe is now conducted. Our gov
Crnment would have been lacking in
diligence if 1t had not acted upon
the suggestion contained in the last
paragraph of the German note of Feb
iuary Is. That note strongly limited
at the possibility of restoration Of
the status existing before the Ger
man Admiralty's war zone" procla-
nation went into effect.
According to the German view the
war zone" order was reprisal pro-
VOked by Great Britain's efforts TO
shut OFF trade in food supplies between
Germany and neutral nations. The
inference was unmistakablc (although
10 direct promise was made) that Il
Great Britain would allow the impor-
tation of foodstuffs intended for the
use of the civilian population Ger
many would. recall the war zone"
proclamation, with its unpleasant
threats against neutrals trading with
Great Britain.
The British government must de-
eide for itself how far it is practic-
able to respond TO the German Offer
10 restore the status quo ante. But
il is our duty to make every reason
able effort to promote a compromise
by which the rights of neutrals on
the high seas may be guaranteed for
the rest of the war The United
States is vitality interested in keep
ing hnimpaired the maritime privi-
leges which neutral nations have
slowly and painfully won. There will
be other great wars. and whether
we avoid participation in them or not,
It will be greatly to our advantage

The Kaiser looks upon the devasta-
ton wrought in the eastern theatre
of war by the retreating Russians
and gives word to his feelings But
when il is all over he will see that
IL is built up again. The Belgians
gaze over a much wider field of de-
struction and are mute. Yet they,
too. will repair the ruin. In other
regions where the ruthless strife is
in progress, those who have suffered
await the moment when the work of
reconstruction may be taken up.
VIII they succeed? Is restoration
possible within the lifetime of this
generation? Can the damage, in some
of its phases, ever be repaired.
At a conservative estimate the di-
rect cost of the operations of war has
been placed by the nations engaged
therein at SlO.OOO,OOO 10000 a year.

Christians are constantly 'prayng
that they may hear, well done -
when the Lord comes to reward his
servants. while as a matter of fact,
they are doing nothing. They talk
about entering into rest. but what are
they going to rest from? A beautiful
verse in Thessalonians referring 10
the rest of the saints is. "Thosc that
arc laid TO sleep through Jesus"
Dives was tormented with insomnia.
II he had been late TO dinner because
he was looking after Lazarus family,
ano had clothed a thousand schildren
among the poor. he might have had
sleep; but because he was self-center-
ed he could get none.-A. J. Gordon.
A little girl came home from school
and ran to her mother. sayinr, "Will
has called me old red-head' before
all the girls in my class" "Or. dear,
bring me my Bible" the wise mother
said. Now will my little one turn
to Isaiah iiii T." The child read it
out, "He was dumb. etc" do you
think they called Him names?' and
as she listened to the Gospel story
she was led to ask for strength "to
be like Jesus" who never spoke an

than waste will continue operative.
the future will be discounted at
usurious rates to meet the inexorable
demands of the day the debt will be
laid at the door of the children's
children not one of whom will go
free until the last farthing has been
paid.
What would il not have meant if
this enormous tribute to war had been
levied for the benefit and blessing of
humanity? With the dead left alive
to work in unison with their brethren,
with the fifty billions placed at their
disposal for constructive uses. who
would set the bounds to the transfor-
nations that might be wrought in the
world? Surely, the building of
Panama canal would be but an Incl
dent in the mighty improvements that
would be brought to pass If the con-
ditiOns were reversed, and the illimi-
table treasures poured out i'm war
were devoted to the constructive cf-
forts Of peaceful development.
The prophetic visions of the millen-
mum are not averse TO the terms of
this imaginary conception. In that
day it is predicted that the titled eartn
will bring forth fiyefold and tenfold.
and that the desert will blossom as
a rose. Conioining with this is the
heralded coming OF the One who.
while caring for the poor and needy,
instead of sacrificing them. will never
theless exercise sovereign and indis-
putable power. He will shepherd the
nations with a rod of iron" The
place in the sun" will be His. in that
re will be invested with insignia of
all rule and all authority; but during
His reign the hungry will not cry for
