POLICY ESTABLISHED

THE Washington Herald, formerly
L an advocate of the League of Ma.
tions, remarks that "As soon as coun-
try really has an established foreign
policy its underlying principles become
a part of the policy of all parties. -
Exactly, and that is one reason why
the people of the country voted by a
plurality OF 1000, 600 for the man who
declared that he was in favor of staying
out Of the league. The league was in.
consistent with the established foreign
policy of the United States, as enunci-
ated by Washington, Monroe, and
others. The rank and file of the Demo.
cratic party are opposed to the United
States subjecting itself to the League
covenant.

Search For Bones

Joseph Wigglesworth, former county
prothonotary who is directing an ar
Genealogical survey of the stretch of
beach at Rehoboth supposed to have
been an Indian graveyard, started work
excavating Monday morning.
The expedition is being financed by
Josiah Marvil, of Wilmington, and the
spot where several skeletons have been
found it is believed by some, will reveal
valuable data concerning the life Of
early Delaware Indian tribes.
Many persons in and about Lewes
and Rehoboth, however, believe the
bones of men who comprised the crew
of Norwegian ship which was wreck
ed just south of Rehoboth seventy
years ago. Their bodies were washed
ashore and buried near the ocean front.

Quarantine regulations for the sup
preston Of ty-phus have disa1Tauged the
sailing schedules OF several lines and
slightly decreased the inflow OF immi-
grants. particularly from Mediterranean
ports. The French steamship Tou-
raine. which was originally advertised
to depart for Hayre yesterday, may not
get away until week hence. Mean
while. the various steamship companies
are cooperating with the Government at
the ports of departure to lessen the

will be averted before the opening OF
the spring season.
