For a Bigger Wilmington Fair.

With the acquisition of more land the
grounds of the Wilmington Fair Asso-
citation can be doubled in sire and, let us
also hope, the fair doubled in interest
Unless We can make our fair measure up
to the demands of the times, which is
far in advance of the old idea Of such cx-
hibitions, it will serve little purpose
and attract but little attention to Della
ware. II our managers put behind the
undertaking the same dynamic energy,
intelligence and experience that havo made
the Allentown and Trenton Fairs famous,
there is no reason why we cannot have an
autumn exhibition here SURPRISING either,
and one that would attract thousands OF
visitors to Wilmington.
A fair to be of any value or worth while
must be abreast of the public's taste for
amusement and at the same time display
the agricultural resources of the State
People will not be content with the cheap
and vulgar exhibitions OF side shows that
usually arc featured by the country fairs.
Our fair managers have proven that these
do not interest the people, neither sight
seers nor exhibitors.
More extended cooperation OF the
farmers and the fruit growers is essential
and it is one of the first things that should
be sought. We have the finest fruits In
the world here in Delaware and we have
some of the best farms and unquestion-
ably some of the finest of high-bred dairy
cattle. All of these should be shown or at
least the best of each. and we should make
the inducements strong enough TO attract
exhibits of farm and herd products
from different parts of the country and
from all sections of the Eastern Shore.
Wilmington, in whatever she under
takes, should conduct it on scale COM
with her Importance and op-
and her splendid location We
have big field to draw upon for patrons,
and if we have anything to show them or
interest them that is worth while they
will be glad to attend.
The arranging and planning of these
annual exhibitions is a difficult task, and
4 those entrusted with the work have not
1ad the successful experience requisite
t might be well to consider engaging the
services of one who has been connected
With such big enterprises as 1renton's
VI Allentown's or with some of the big
New England agricultural exhibitions.

HANfPERING IMMIGRATION BYLAW

The section OF the immigration law
prescribing a literAcy test for aliens seek
ing admission to this country has shown
IT'S sheer latuousness in many instances,
but in none, il may be supposed, more
ridiculous than that of the detention of
wealthy Yucatan merchant and hrs
wife at Ellis Island
These visitors, for they can hardly be
classed as immigrants, have daughter
nt school IN Massachusetts, and the bus-
band, according to his statement, hns
been coming TO tho United States every
summer for the LAST twelve years without
hindrance. They are amply supplied
with funds and socially eligible. Yet
because they cannot read thirty words of
English or some other language, inciud-
ing Yiddish, IL is suddenly discovered that
they are menace Of some kind, and
entrance rs denied them.
The agitator and the confidcncc-man
who can read are welcomed but the alien
of respectability is barred out because Of
deficiency which in no way irnpairs his
usefulness or threatens the security OF
society.
This restriction OF the law must excite
a deeper popular disfavor as its injustice
becomes more apparent. II cripples
American industry by rejecting the very
type of immigrant of whom the country
has most need at prcsent.-New York

LOOKS LIKE A CONSPIRACY.

A million dollars was pledged year
ago for the campaign to secure the nomi-
nation of General Wood, and the general
made no promises to anybody. Who
were the contributors and what were their
motives? A million may not be a great
deal to put up for the election of candi-
date, but it is a great deal to put up on
the chance of getting certain man named
by the convention. And this campaign
began year ago. Is it possible that all
this was done merely out of personal
admiration for the general? What was
the scheme? Why was it going to be
worth million dollars to get General
Wood nominated, and who were so
anxious? This is something more than
a mere personal popularity boom, and the
country is entitled to fuller knowledge of
what looks like conspiracy.-Philadel-

Fireworks Before Council Again.

1t is a most appropriate time for local
conservationists to renew their opposition
to fireworks and the silly, noisy and
dangerous Fourth of July celebrations.
Council refused to follow the almost uni
versal rule civic bodies of this country
are adopting to turn to sane observance
of Independence Day.
Just now, with the mental picture OF
one child fatally burned by sparkler,
one man hopelessly manned by the loss of
an arm, child blinded and SIX or eight
more burned more or less severely as
part of the Fourth's celebration, city
legislators should be less insistent on the
personal rights stand and take away from
irresponsible children and even more
reckless adults the toys that endanger
life and property. Perhaps now that the
Fourth has passed the, patriotism of the
members cooled off, those who turned
deaf ear to the petition representing the
sentiment of the public may assent to
yielding to the call for safety and sanity
on independence days.
Since personal politics has entered so
strongly into the control of our municipal
affairs, one might almost conclude that
a majority Of Council are determined to
withhold from the public precisely those
things it regards as essential to the safety.
well being and advancement Of the in
terests Of Wilmington.
