To Those " no Retire.

Today John @. Townsend, Jr., after
four wears Of conspicuous service, retipes
from the high office Of governor Of Della
ware Comments on the result OF his
administration may vary, but none can
deny 70 the governor the full meed Of
praise that is due 70 an earnest effort 70
administer an important public office with
results that he believed would be Of bene-
fit 20 the people
Many matters Of unusual Importance
have confronted Governor Townsend
He had the war emergencies 70 meet, and
met them efficiently and commercially.
In the matter Of State legislation he labor
cd earnestly for measures Of public good,
especially for the improvement Of our
system Of public education, with notable
success in many instances. handicapped
most Of tho time by bitter partisan op-
position, some Of his purposes were
thwarted and his intentions misconstrued
in numerous instances. He was not as
siduous in respect Of the important mat
ter Of reducing taxation, as is proved by
| the accumulation Of the enormous balance
Of nearly two million dollars in the State
treasury, most Of If during his adminis'ra-
ton. Nor is there 9 record Of pronounced
| economy TO his credit
But il may be truly said Of Governor
| Townsend that throughout his term he
| worked hard for what he conceived to be
the interests of the people, and that his
record contains much that will be heartily
approved. while there viii be no disposl-
ton TO magnify any Of his shortcomings.
Secretary Of State Everett c. Johnson
also fetires today, after term in this
Office marked by conspicuous and credit
able success. His highest compliment Is
| that the new governor earnestly desired
him to continue in the office, and that his
retirement is IN no sense compulsory. Nc
man ever filed the office with greater
efficiency. or with more economy, his
regard for the latter element leading
him to spend much of his private means II

Must Have Higher Rates.

The annual statement Of the Delaware
Railroad Company. presented at the
meeting AZ Dover. last week, gave the
gross income as 6o,05611, q decrease
Of s.. .3e4 50, and the net income as si32.-
o55. .7s, which is g. 700 90 less than that Of
last wear Despite the advance IN the rates
for passenger and freight service that the
road has enjoyed for few months, IT
finds it's gross earnings have declined,
contrasted with those Of last year, and
that there has been a corresponding de-
crease in the net income, while the debit
transferred 10 the profit and loss has in
creased 20 Ss.29l IS The unfavorable
showing is accompanied by the statement
that owing 10 the advance in the prices Of
labor and material there must be further
relief for railroads, "to assure the main
tenance Of their credit and of their ability
to furnish adequate facilities to the
public"
The prospect Of higher passenger and
freight rates is not pleasant 70 contem-
plate. but IL would seem 70 be inevitable
in view Of the experience of the comJHny
after three months of the rate increase
aIlo wed and effective August 25 of last
year.

merchandise and food products from Tho

markets, makes the raise, which, it is de
clared, must soon follow, q matter OF deel

Dclaware's Industrial Growth.

Delaware hiss made far greater per-
centages of increase in the activities and
output Of her industries in the last tve
years is shown by her advances in any other
direction, according to semi-oiiclnlr report
of the director Of the Federal census, Just
made public. In the last five years, from
1914 TO 1919, the capital invested IN
plants operating under the factory proup-
ing, which includes oil branches but hand
industries, building trades. md neiphbor-
hood industries, increased from s69,312,-
900 to sl4S, ,o45 900, gain of s7s, p3,ooo
or 1876 per cent. There was falling OH
in the number Of factories in the last ive
years, the drop being 1874 from the
sos reported in 1914 while the number oi
persons employed in them increased 10
32,S5S, from rs, 1888 a total of s36,so2,-
900 was paid to wage workers in the state
in 1918, more than three times as much
as they received in 1914. The products
Of manufactured products Of Delaware
plants in 1910 reached the enormous ag-
gregate of s164, ,oo9, 900, more than three
times the value of those Of 1914, when
they were valued at s56,035,0OO
II is interesting TO note that the IN
creased value of tho manufactured articles
was $40. 525. 900 in 1919, whereas the
gain through the process Of manufacture
was but s2i ,3s6,000 FIVE years earlier,
the increase being 226l per cent.
These figures, surprising as they are,
probably do not include the operations
of the du Pont concerns across the Deia-
ware, nor, Of course, do they take into
| account the Thousands that had been
! employed in the Carney Point group oi
powder mills during the war, for most oi
the plant manufacturing explosives there
had closed before this census data was
gathered
Wilmington may congratulate herself
upon her industrial prosperity, which,
even after the war activities ceased, had
reached almost sl65,000,000, and our
largest industrial producers had slnckened.
Otherwise, had the statistics included the
| output Of the du PCnt powder operations
when running at capacity, the figures ex-
pressing our industrial activity might
have been double had they been placed
under the Delaware industrial heading
Wilmington's place in the list Of manu-
| featuring cities will be materially adj
vanced by this showing of her tremendous
industrial growth. which men Of affairs

aidering the loneliness at night of the

TO have been nervous about making tho
trip between the two points alone after
dark, but, so far as we recall. there has
never before been serious happening
to Justify their fears This peculiarly
