Governor Sprouts Opportunity.

Wilmington win wslooms Governor
sproul Of Pennsylvania this evening,
when he comes to talk TO the Republicans
Of Delaware on tho issucs Of tho cam
paign. Governor eproul II our nearest
neighbor, an extensive manufacturer OF
Chester, and tho possessor Of very large
wealth. He has been in politics almost all
Of his life, and coming from Pennsylvania
and working NJ part Of Penroses "Organ-
ication," he is supposed 70 know the game
from Alpha to Omega.
As Delaware voters have heard the
stock arguments Of tho Republicans dis
cussed and repeated again and ngain, IL
might be more interesting md useful TO tho
people of Delaware. II the governor OF
Pennsylvania were to explain in some de-
tail how the politics Of Pennsylvania arc
maintained Mt such a high standard, by
the Republicans, and how Philadelphia
came to be 30 efficiently governed by
Republicans that when n candidate oppos-
ed to gang rule appearedat the polls to
vote he was attacked by hired gunmen
and a policeman who endenvord to pre-
serve the peace was brutally murdered.
Governor Sproul might also point out
why his own home city Of Chester is in
the control of the worst lot Of pirates and
'hard-boiled" citizens that ever infested
community or why his own county, Della
ware, is run by crew Of political wreckcrs
that have no equals.

PRESS COMMENTS
TWO QUESTIONS FOR HARDING.

Last week tho World submitted two
questions to Senator Harding:
II elected, will you submit the Treaty oi
Versailles TO the United States Senator
II SO, will you accept the treaty and the
covenant of tho Lengue of Nations with
such reservations M two-thirds OF tho Sem
ntors may agree to?
Senator Harding has refused to answer
these questions. Yet they are fair ques-
tions. They are honest questions. They
are questions that can be answered by
Eyes" or mo"
There is no doubt whatever as to where
Governor Cox stands on this matter.
He has made it clear beyond controversy.
If he IL elected President he will resubmit
the Treaty to the Senate. he will accept
such reservations rs two-thirds of the
Senators may agree to.
The questions that tho World presented
70 Senator Harding 20 to the very root
OF the League of Nations controversy
The Treaty of Versailles is no longer be-
fore tho Senate, il having been returned
to the President on motion OF Senator
its ratification. The Treaty can be
brought before the Senate again only
through the action Of tho President. The
ANetis'' iNota bfte nv ESNba " stesfN Ne%
sideration.
Unless Mr.. Wilson should himself send
the Treaty back before March 4, there
will be nothing in respect to pence with
Germany or the Covenant of the League
of Nations on which the Senate can give
its advice and consent. But even If the
treaty is resubmitted by President Wilson,
his successor can withdraw it unless the
Senate has already adopted a resolution
Of ratification. The first thing, then, is to
determine what the policy of the next
President is TO be in respect TO the resub-
mission of the treaty.
Everybody knows what Governor Cox
would do. Nobody knows what Senator
Harding would do, unless it be that little
coterie of reactionary Republican politi-
clans who act as his brain and his CON
science
Senator Harding pretends that he has
made his attitude clear in regard TO the
League of Nations. II he has, let him
answer the World questions. New York

We suggest to the women who reside in
the heavily congested voting districts the
propriety of clothing themselves in foot
ball gear for going 20 the polls on election
day. They may have to 60 through fierce
"scrimmages" in order TO reach the polls.
But they can blame only the Republican
party leaders. Fair and easy voting con-
ditions which the women are justly en-
titled TO might have been provided for
election day, but the Republican party
managers would not consent. They ex-
pect 10 get in the votes OF the Negro
owmen, and compel the white WON en- to
take chances of being crowded out in the
rush that is bound TO occur in many dis
tricts.

THE STACKER.

The voting privilege is 4 thing to be
used-not TO be hidden away in an old
stocking or the ancient teapot like hoard
ed money, nor to be carried as a reserve,
like jar of jam or eold-stored chicken.
The voting Stacker of the male kind we
know about-he has been n the demon
stration at every election held in Mary

feminine voting Stacker we do not know

The Pessimism Of the Victorian.

Frederic Harrison, reviewing on his
eighty birthday. the grave evils
and cruel lose that have come into the
world together with material progress,
declares, IL am q pessimist. Frederic
Harrison was born in the midst OF the
political storm that swept the rotten
boroughs away He has seen the enfranoh-
isement Of the poor; has seen free trade
sweep away tariffs; has seen liberalism go
from victory TO victory. He himself did
much to establish the power of the trade
unions in elevating the masees. In Europe
he has seen nation after nation struggle to
political freedom and unity. He has wei
coined the vast changes Of the age oil
steam and the age Of electricity. He has
seen disease conquered by science until
London led the great cities Of the world In
the lowness Of it's mortality rate. DE has
seen the slums Of Chartist times and the
Irish famine Of as become impossibilities.
And now 10 il the verdict Of the veteran
Positivist, who has labored with other fol-
lowers Of Comte to make social advance
ment a religion--the religion Of humanity
that the "incalculable mischief on
which be dwells outweighs the benefits Of
the period? He more probably thinks as
he did when he published his essay on
Christianity at the Grave of the Nine
teenth Century" He then declared that
nations and peoples had in many ways re-
Progressed. but that be hoped that such
re.rocression va. temporary. lie had
seen SO much evil overcome that i can

RIPPING RHYMES.
BY Walt Mason.
A YEAR AGO.

A year ago today, no doubt, | had
the fantods or the gout, or some
grim grief oppressed my soul, and
made the scalding teardrops roll.
But what it was that made me sore,
| don / remember any more. \ year
ago, | wist and wot, my grumbllngs
make the welkin hot; the burdens
| was doomed TO bear seemed great
er than a man should wear; but
what those burdens were that CALLED
my shoulders till wept and bawled,
don't recall; how can one say what
chanced year ago today? Today
I'm weeping by the hour; the life
live seems lemon-sour; the govern
ment is on the blink, there's moth
ing for man to drink, the baseball
scandal broke my heart, my ding
donged auto will not start. But If
you meet me one year hence, and
lean with me against the fence, and
look me In the eyes and say, We
met one year ago today, and YOU
were shedding bitter tears, and had
Grape tassels on your ears, and sack
cloth on your iaded frame, and ashes !.
where your whiskers came; you
seemed n most grief-stricken man;
now, please explain it, if you can,
ah, who can recollect the woe that
iaryed his soul year ago? | have
fresh troubles every morn; each
hour catastrophes are born; I'd be
freak if could say what hurt a year
ago today.

assent to measures forrehef in the largely

not reasonable to believe he performed this

The secret Of keeping young is 10 feel

liver and bowels-there' no need of
having sallow complexion-dark rings
under your eyes-pimples---a bilious
look in your face-dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, well-known physician
in Ohio. perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
sttute for calomcl, are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system Of impurities
