DREAMERS.

Oh man must dream of gladness wherever
his pathways lead.
And a hint of something better IS written
in every creed;
And nobody wakes at morning but
hopes ere the day is o'er
To have come to richer pleasure than
ever he's known before.
For man is n DIR amer ever. lie Rimpses
the hills afar
And plans for the joys of yonder where all
his tomorrows arc;
When trials and cares beset HIM, IN the
distance he still can see
A hint of a future splendid and the glory
that Is to bc.
There's never n man among us but cher
ishcs dreams of rest,
We toll for that something better than
that which is now our best
Oh, what IL the cup be bitter and what
if We re rackcd with PAM
There are wonderful days TO follow when
never we'll grieve again.
Back Of the sound of the hammer, and
back of the kissing steam.
And back Of the hand Al the throttle, IS
ever lofty dream;
All Of us. great or humble, look over the
present need
To the dawn of the glad tomorrow which
is promised in every creed.

A Notable Project That Failed.

An item Of down-State news, last
week, reported the death, at Lincoln
City. small town in the upper part OF
Sussex county, the first station below
Milford on the Delaware, Maryland and
Virginia Railroad, of AIphonsia w. Small.
IL was stated he was cone Of the founders
of Lincoln City"
Manv travellers over the railroad who
were not familiar with past history no
doubt wondered. as they gazed from the
car windows at Lincoln City how it was
that such small community was spread
over such large extent OF territory.
They were surprised at the prcntetious
width of the streets, their extens on, by
nlain markings, such distance beyond
the limited built-up portion of the place,
and other visible evidences of town land
out ON plans that clearly comprehended
community of far more than the average
size and Importance.
Citizens of mature years. whose mem
ories recall events of half n century ago
with clearness and accuracy, may recall
the genesis of this little Sussex county
community which was baptized MS mu-
ncipality and given the name OF one OF the
country's great Presidents. Lincoln City
was a scheme evolved from the active
brain and aspiring impulses Of Colonel
Robert, Small, who stirred Sussex county
from end to cud by the lnspirlng proper
tions Of his development project. WIth
his brother and few others he secured
about , 900 acres of land. and there plant
cd his Lincoln City, The tract was plot
ted on the designs of large and thriving
city. streets laid out to generous width,
and building lots apportioned to the very
limits thereof The main streets were not
only mapped, but converted into realities,
as the conformation of the ground enabled
this to be done at little expense.
Colonel Small ''boorncd" Lincoln City
with astonishing vigor. and with much
business acumcn, advertising It lar ana
wide. lie succeeded in selling enough lots
and attracting settlers in sufficient num-
bers to create the community that now
finds lodging place there. What degree oi
success he might have met with is prob
lematical, but he was doing very well until
the disastrous panic Of 1873 punctured hls
boom" and brought stagnancy to his
enterprise, rs it did 70 50 many similar
enterprises throughout the country.
But Lincoln City was started, and i

greatness that was intended for i by

Partisanship Gone Mad.

Never in the history Of any American
Congress has there been such an instance
Of partisanship gone mad as IN the act OF
the Republican majority on the House
wavs and means committee excluding
minority members from the conferences
at which the Soldier Bonus bill was draft
ed. No Democrat on the committee
was permitted to even know what was IN
the bill until il was reported out when
with the 20 X Of the steering COM
mittee. il was ordered put through the
House asa strictly r publican measure.
Democrats are citizens and taxpayers and
will contribute their share Of the revenue
with which the bonus S paid. but they
were not even allowed 70 be present when
the bill was drafted much less have a
voice in its preparation.
How different the attitude Of the Demo
Gratis when they were in the majority
during the war and consulted and advised
with the Republican minority about all
war measures!
Democrats and Republicans alike
fought and won the war. and Democrats
and Republicans alike have right TO q
voice in adjusting compensation for the
men who faced the foe and won the victory

PRESS COMMENTS.
WHY NEW YORK rs A JOKEf

When former Judge Seabury told the
delegates TO the Democratic National
Convention that delegations from this
State have gone to National Conventions
for years tied TO the Tammnny tall and
have been the laughing-stock OF the
Nation" he erred, if at all, on the side OF
moderation.
The New York delegation to a Dcmocra-
tic National Convention is commonly
regarded as political Joke. IL has been n
political joke for generation. Although
Now York is the most populous State OF
the Union, with more delegates IN Ma
tional Convention than any other State
and more votes in the Electoral College,
il plavs n sorry part in National Con-
ventions
This, however, is not due to the unit
rule, however undemocratlc the unit rule
may he Other States have the unit rule,
but no other State exercises so little
influence in a National Convention IN pro-
portion TO it's numbers. No other State Is
so generally an object of dcrlslon.
II Judge Seabury had searched further
be would have found that the explanation
lies in the character and traditions ot New
York leadership. Whether the delegation
was controlled by Murphy or by Croker
or by Kelly, whether it was pawn oi
Tammany or pawn OF the Ola iii'i
machine New York for years has gone
to National Conventions not to help
nominate a President but To bargain and
barter. The unit rule is valuable in making
the deal and in securing the delivery ot
the goods but the unit rule Is not res
ponsible for that general absence of prin-
ciple on the part of the New York dolega-
tion which makes its support liability
and not an advantage.
The Republican Party in New York
however, has become quite as bad IN Tins
respect as the Democratic Party. ne
Republican delegation to the Chicago
Convention will exert about as much
influence as Tammany at the San iran,
cisco Convention When all free play of
opinion and sentiment, when all indepen-
dent expression, Is ruthlcssiy Smothefed

lives are treated accordingly. y.-New York

The Senate and Treaties.

Suppose we reject the Treaty; what
follows? We continue the state oil war,
and every sensible man in the country
every business interest. desires the re-
establishment of peace in law as well as
in fact. At the same time we rcpudiate
the President and his action before the
whole world, and the Reputation OF the
President in such a matter as this is 10
my mind the humiliation of the United
States in the eyes of civilized mankind,
and brands us a people incapable of great
affairs or of taking rank where We belong,
as one of the greatest of the great World
Powers"
No. this is not an extract from speech
recently delivered in the United States
Senate bv Senator Hitchcock Of Nebraska
or any other supporter Of the Wilson adj
Ininstration and patriotic advocate OF
ratification Of the Treaty Of Peace and the
League of Nations. 1t is an extract from
speech once delivered in the Senate by
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Of Massa-
Chusetts.
We know this seems astounding. but It
i true. The sentiments expressed arc
those Of this bitter partisan this malg-
nant fighter against President Wilson, at
\ time when he was clothed in his right
mind and viewed the subject then before
the country on all-fours with the
issue now before the Senate in respect OF
ending our war with Germa ny-as
patriotic statesman. and when he earnest
N favored combination Of the leading
nations Of the world for the purpose OF
insuring, BY coercivc measures il ncccS Ssary
at times. the preservation Of the world 5
peace.
II was a little more than twenty-one
wears ago that Senator Lodge delivered
on the floor Of the United States Senate
the speech from which the above impTes-
sive extract Is taken The subject under
consideration was the Treaty with Soaln,
which had been sent to the Senate by
President Mckinley At that time he was
not fighting the President of the United
States. On the contrary. be was has val
iant defender and his firm personal and
political friend But he was advocating
a patriotic policy and urging upon his
fellow-Senators the performance Of 4
patriotic duty-a Strengthening OF the
hands Of the President il restoring peace
between this country and q nation with
which it had recently been at war.
II is amazing, in view Of the analogy
between the situation at Washington to-
day and that which prevailed when
he was urgently advocating rati-
fcation Of the Peace Treaty with Spain,
that Senator Lodge can have the hardi-
hood to so reverse himself But he can
not expunge the record, and so it stands
forth today to convict him Of not only
gross insincerity, but Of a lack Of that
patriotism which he so striklngly exempli-
fed upon the previous occasion. How he
can reconcile himself to his present in
defensible course, how he can display
such bitter partisan rancor instead OF up
holding the honor Of our government, Is
beyond comprehension. But II may at
least be assumed he is anything but happy
when he gives consideration to the shame
full contrast. And patriotic citizens will
know what to think of him.
