In order to provide living accommodations for the
thousands Of additional clerks and employees in the gov

nished roomng houses, at expense with dining
rooms, reading rooms parlors, etc
In many respects these were preferable to the

than many Of the the war workers were able to
secure from private owners
But The demand for The Was so slack that the
Navy Department made order requiring certain of its
employees TO occupy government quarters
Reasons for not desiring TO live in the government
houses are various the common being that the
charges are higher than the renters would have TO pay

MECHANICS PLACE IN DEMOCRACY.

THE American mechanic, the Wilmington mechanic

The mechanic has economical and distributed human

the necessities, comforts and many Of the luxuries Of

And tie ease and cheapness by which we obtain our

Many OF US in our homes and at win hear the
worlds greatest symphony orchestras and human song
birds.
These together with the more utiitaran items of our
modern life are due to the efforts Of the American me
ehaniceycry desire for Increased and low cost produc

matte lathe the punch press the power loom and sewing

IT Is true that there great mechanics in the old

but these made things only for the very rich

and those Of old world that the devoted their
efforts and ingenuity machinery and tools and dies TO

AN AFfRoNr no TlIE REPUBLICAN ELEcroR.T

An AFTRONT TO TIE REPUBLICAN ELECTORATE
ID the miserably margin of a5J in a total pol
- OF almost 5000 votes, by highly discreditabic
methods on The part of his campaign hackers. William
g. Taylor candidate OF Alfred dupont and his Voters
Non-Parsan League for the ma, orally nomination won
IN the Republican primary election here on saturday
The election returns show clearly where he won and
incidents at and the pongs places show clearly how
he won.
BEFORE thc primary held We asserted that his
candidaey for tho nomination constituted an aYron TO
the Republicans cleeIorate that he was not III TO he
nominated; that, if nominated he would not be NJ 10
be elected Mayor and II he placed at tho head of
tho Republican ticket he would be in the city
election in June.
The primary has been held.
Taylor has been nominated!
We repeat what we asserted before The primary
election.
The nomination Of Taylor is a0ront TO Republicans
who place proper value the principles policies
and the practices Of the Republican party. 3
II represents an effort 10 put premium upon arrant
and wholly miustiGabic party treachery.
Taylor was not iii politically 10 be nominated for
Mayor he is not I'll politically to be elected TO The office
of Mayor and he win be defeated the June election
state senator James ". Robertson made a splendid
run for the nomination If he had come out a week
earlier than he did the result would been different
However. if senator Robertson had won the nomination.
the hackers OF Taylor would have knitted him to death at
the polls Just they knitted james T. Price The Republic
can mayoraty candidate, TO death two years ago
Taylor Is defeated candidate before starts TO run
Realizing that fact Republicans should address them
selves TO the task of saving the of ticket that is
Handicapped terribly by the fact headed by
man. who represents the sentiment OF the Republi-
'an party, but the spite and money bags of Alfred
iuPont and the municipal exploitation hopes OF the
Iotcrs Non-Parsan League.

Sunday that eerain weekly newspaper.
Of the state--in defiance Of Federal
regulations; in disregard TO their duty

principle Of honesty and right-have
barlered their editorial columns for a
monthly subsidy, and that those col
umns are regularly used TO publish
articles in the guise Of genuine edi-
torials intended to deceive their read
ers relative to the activities Of the
most evil and maleyolcnt influence
Delaware has ever known.
Do our readers understand the full
significance Of campaign that poi
sons the very well-spring and fountain
mead OF public information? Some
newspapers in this and other COM
munities have been suspected OF being
Vcnal. Others arc known to be owned
by individuals and interests that do
not hesitate at times TO use their pa
pers to Sdrther their private ends and
ambitions The purposes and the in-
pelling motives Of papers of this class
soon come TO be understood by the
public and their utterances on subjects
affecting the interests Of their owners
are properly gagged
But the thing TO which we have
called attention is an evil much more
insidious and With possibilities for
danger much more alarming. Tile very |

gravest menace that ever threatened |
