Mas well worth while and wen worth seeing
Public interest in motordrNen vehicles for pur-
poses of business and pleasure stimulated.
Many sales Of machines effected
Many good prospects obtained.
In the minds of many persons argumentative seed
was sown that should make for good business during
the year
Wilmington advertised far and wide as a re-
suit of the holding OF this ceyeryarranged and ably
managed business and social function.
The automobile dealers and the members OF their
committees are TO be congratulated upon the
that attended their work. The public is to be con-
graduated upon the handsome way in which 1t mani
tested its appreciation OF what they did.
1t would be menfestly improper to discuss the show
and its without paying tribute to the important
part which Ernest s. Taite the efficient and enerpris-
ing manager OF the Hotel dupont played in produc-
ing that success Everything that could be done for
the comfort and convenience of exhibitors and visitors
was done. He naugurated public-be-pleased policy
that exercised beneficial influence in all directions

DEMOCRAT ARRAIGNs DEMOCRAT.

IN HE severest arragnment Of the Democratic party
thus far heard in Congress has been delivered by
Senator Newlands Democrat, OF Nevada. an arraign-
ment especially severe because inspired by
rather than dislike, tempered with mercy and eff
fort Justice rather than animated by partsanship.
IAN industrial and commercial depression has been
experienced and has been cotermnous with Democratic
control legislation" said Newlands adding, ut
would not do charge this to the European war FIRST
because that war, though injurious to our production
and trade in its inception, has become stimulant to
production and export and second. because the COM
mencement of this depression antedates the European
and contemporaneous with our legislation
regarding the tariff. banking and trade But
If that war comes to a close. and the manufacture
OF munitions ends and added to this source OF unem-
poyment markets now protected by the war from
invasion, arc overwhelmed by the cheap products Of
the nations just emerging from and eager to get
back their gold may have not only an aggravated
industrial depression TO meet but financial condi-
tion fruitful Of paralyzing conditions"
Continuing, Mr. Newlands said 1T is safe to say
that the manufacturing. banking and the large cor
porato interests hostile to the Democratic party
and that their employees also preparing to throw
their weight against it simply because this admnisra
ton has not brought good times but the contrary
has, in their judgment. brought bad times
Mr.. Newlands scored those changes in the Glass
Federal Reserve Law which were brought about by
Secretary McAdoo and Comptroller John skelton VIII
ams in their determination to perpetuate their own
power. saying
I'VE failed to make the Federal Reserve Board non
partisan, tied it TO executive department through
the membership Of the Secretary of the Treasury and
the Comptroller, subjected the member banks to the
investigating and correctional powers of single par
! isan Comproer. instead Of the composite judgment of
quasijuricial non-partisan Board and exacted ad-
ditiona and unnecessary capital from member banks
thus organizing the associations into profit
making institutions purpose entirely foreign to
their nature protective organizations"
He went TO say that what the Democrats should
have done wes to create a Federal Reserve Board like
the Interstate Commerce Commission with similar pow
ers over the banks and thus have avoided keeping Out
OF the banking system that half represented by The
state banks And immediate legislation along this line

"The greatest improvement in
safety OF railway operation ever re-
corded for a year is shown by the
annual accident bulletin just issued
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission for the fiscal year 1915" says
the Railway Age Gazette in an
analysis Of the Commissions report
"As a result of the combined effect
Of the safety first movement, of inn
provements in facilities of various
kinds and of the slump in railway
traffic caused by the business depres-
sion, the accident record Of the tail-
ways of the United States for 1915
is in most respects the best ever re-
ported, even when the allowance is
made for the reduced chances for ac-
cident resulting from the decrease in
traffic. II is necessary to 90 back
several years, to a time when rail-
way mileage and traffic and the num-
ber of employees were all very much
less than in 1915. to find accident fig
ures as small as those reported for

number of fatalities in connection
with railway operation was only g.
537. or less than for any year since

carried one mile in 1915 was approx
matcly 106 per cent. greater and the
number OF tons OF freight hauled one

than in 1900
"The total number of persons kill
ed in 1915" the Railway Age Gazette
shows twas less than for any other
year since 1902, and the number
injured was less than for. any other

Of passengers killed, 222, out of ap-
proximately one billion carried, was
less than for any other year since
1898. when only 79S 100000 were car
ried: and the number injured was
less than for any other year since
1906. The total number of employees
killed was less than for any other
year since 1898, when there were only
about half as many employees as in
1915. and the number injured was
less than for any other year since
