The demand for a businessman fol-

the voters their choice of two news

success and made fortunes. OF

KILLED IN CAVE OF WINDS.

Niagara Falls has casualty list extend
ing back through the years, but if there
was one safe spot in the vicinity it might
have been supposed to be the Cave of the
Winds under the Horseshoe Falls. Sight
seers to the number Of million and a half
had explored this natural wonder with
perfect security since its opening TO the
public in 1888. And though the physical
risks of the rapids and the hypnotic lure
of the great cataract might claim their
victims from time to time, here at least was
safety. Yet after all the years of i'm
munity, and on a holiday that increased
the throng of visitors, tons of rocks sud-
denly crashed down, killing three persons.
The fact that two Of those whose lives

from Brooklyn taking their first vacation
trip in many years adds a local interest
to the strange nature of their fate. BY
all the laws Of chance they had greater
reason to expect death in the streets, on
the train or in the hotel. Yet it was in the
safe refuge of the Cave of the Winds that
it came to them.
1t is one of the mysteries. Will other
rock slides follow this, or may another
generation of time elapse before the
natural forces of the cave take another
toll of human life? At anyrate, the exist
ence of the risk has geen established, and
as to whether engineering skill can guar

Unjust to Wilmington.

In the matter of State mercantile taxes
Sussex county paid for the year 1919 the
sum of S17, 7,497; Kent county, $14.4SO;
rural New Castle county, about Sic, 900
Here is total of not quite $50, 900 paid by
section comprising about five-sixths OF
the States territory. against about 1885,
600 paid by the city of Wilmington. Being
tax on business, however, it will be
readily understood why the bulk of the
total amount comes from this city.
This tax has been in operation for
probably a century, and while its in
justice in some respects was complained of
occasionally, it WAS never the cause of
serious objection. But now that City
Council has piled on top of this tax on
business another and similar tax for city
purposes, Wilmington people justly COM
plain of the superimposed tax as An in
justice.
Under Democratic rule in Delaware the
State mercantile tax was in evidence, as it is
now. But Democratic rule stopped at inn
posing a double burden on the people Of
Wilmington. Also, it kept taxes of all
kinds far below the limits of the prevail
ing onerous burdens and never dreamed of
a State income tax, to be borne almost en-
tirely by the supine and suffering victims

Why Did He Lose the Primary Fight

A Republican organ at Laural insists
that Congressman Layton was renominat-
ed by the Republican State Convention,
after his Endorsement by the Sussex
county caucus, because the great ma
jority wanted him" 1t repudiates any
suggestion that he was renominated by the
grace of any one PRISON.
How strange is this assertion in view of
the fact that Representative Layton
failed, at the Sussex county Republican
primaries, TO receive an Endorsement from
majority of the voters. At that decisive
test he was squarely beaten, securing, ac-
cording to estimates made at the time,
only II of the county's AZ delegates.
There was no "great majority in his
favor in this plainly expressed sentiment of
the Republican voters of Layton's home
county. There was. on the contrary,
distinct reputation. His county was
against him. and only through the strong
persuasion Of Governor Townsend was the
hostile majority induced to give sullen
acquiescence to his renom nation
