JI1E ELECTION IN WILMINGTON.
Delaware is one of the last strongholds of
the Democracy. Though Rinall, she is Btire,
and though her entire population does not
exceed that of a few of the large wards of
Philadelphia, she has as much power in the
Senate of the United States as the whole
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. By a tor
ribly unjust provision of the State Constitu
tion her three counties have an equal repre
sentation . in the Legislature, despite marked
differences in population and wealth, so that
the two lower counties, where darkness instead
of light and knowledge reigns supreme, and
where emancipation is still regarded as an
unparalleled outrage of the "abolitionists,"
continue to control the little Commonwealth,
in defiance of the real sentiments of a majority
of her voters.
As the city of Wilmington numbers among
hor citizens many progressive, intelligent,
and patriotic men, and as the fear has been
engendered that, sooner or later, they would
overthrow i,he dynasty of semi-llebel and pro
slavery aristocrats who run the Legislature
for the benefit of lottery-policy men and a
few of the "first families" in particular, and
the Rebel reactionists in general, the "eyes
of Delaware" have been sternly turnod to
wards this turbulent community, and rigorous
measures have been adopted to check her
growing power. An ingenious system has
been devised to make her Democratic, as well
as the other portions of the State, in spite
of the wishes of a majority of her
citizens. To accomplish this end, the city
has been jerrymander iuto nine wards, so
constituted that it is scarcely possible, in any
event, for the Republicans to obtain a ma
jority of the Councilmen, and to secure the
Mayor, the Legislature has designated by
name nine Democrats to conduct the elections
in the respective wards, with assistants of
their own appointment, and nothing short of
a miracle will prevent these officials from
gratifying the expectations of their fellow
partisans. The election occurs to-morrow,
Sept. 7, the Republican candidate for Mayor
being Joshua S. Valentine, and the Democra
tic candidate J. L. Siuiius; andas every possible
precaution has been taken to insure a Demo
cratic victory, a fine opportunity will be pre
sented to the organs of that party to once more
regale their readers with their favorite roos
ter; and results which will be due mainly to
infamous partisan chicanery will be heralded
as proofs of an overwhelming change of pub
lie sentiment.
HIE VERMONT ELECTION.
Vermont holds her State election to-morrow,
the Democrats, according to their immemo
rial custom, going through the empty farce of
voting a straight ticket. The following are
the candidates of the two parties for the prin
cipal State offices:
Republican. 1 norruHr.
GOVERNOR.
Peter T. Washburn. Homer W. Huaton.
MKUTENANT-OOVEKNOtt.
George V. Honilee. Morillo Noyea.
STATE TKKASl'KKH.
John A. Tage. John M. Weeks.
It is expected that the vote will be a light
one, falling considerably below the votes of
the past three years, which were as follows:
Rry. Drin. m-ii. Toittl
18CT.... Governor 8i,6i4 11, Mo iio.ist 43,12114
1908.... Governor 4i,6l5 lMiSS sr.lWo 67,904
1SCS.... President 44,167 12,045 32,122 6U.212
The politics of the Green Mountain State
are as one-sided as the handle of a jug, and
there is not the remotest shadow of a chance
that the vote of to-morrow will snow any
change in the sentiments of her people. They
are sound and true, to the very core.
Caleb CushxNO, having himself once been
American Minister to China, thinks that the
position is one which demands a "compre
hensive statesman," or, in other words, i
gentleman somewhat on the Gushing style
Very naturally, therefore, he regards Mr. J,
Ross Browne, the sketch-R riter, as a diplo
matic fizzle, and urges the administration to
look up a minister of the comprehensive
order. In the same Washington despatch in
which these facts are set forth, we find it
mentioned that Galusha A. Grow, of this
State, is being pressed for the position, but
whether or no by Mr. Cushing we can decide
only by the inference of contiguity. If it be
the case that Mr. Cushing is really backing
tip the claims of Grow in this matter, we fear
that ho does not comprehend the first prm
ciples of comprehensive statesmanship, or
filae that he does not enjoy the honor of Mr.
Grow's acquaintance.
"Mb. PERSHrao," says the Aye, "when he
Berved in the Legislature, was distinguished
for his resolute opposition to all jobs, frauds,
and unjust legislation." Then why not send
Mr. Pershing back to the Legislature ? Sinco
be vent out of the legislative business, it has
fallen into great disrepute, and there can be
no doubt that he would be able to acoomplish
a great deal towards infusing honesty and
decency into the proceedings of our law
makers, if he were sent back to occupy again
his old seat. By all means, then, let Mr.
Pershinff co back to Harrisburg. His past
record, according to the claim of his friends,
Bhows that the State capital is his true sphere.
Memphib devotes only $::,8G7 per year to
school purposes, while her police system costs
$147,702. The veritable carnival of crime
which prevails in and around thu model Ten
nessee town presents a striking commentary
pa these figures.
THE VANDEItHILT STATUE.
It is a significant sign of the spirit of the
age that, while projects for erecting monu
ments and statues of great heroes and states
men drag heavily, or are abandoned for want
of funds, more than half a million of dollars
were recently collected to defray the expenses
of the artistic" monstrosity which has boon
erected on the top of the Hudson River Rail
road depot in honor of Commodore Vandor
bilt, the great steamship and railway specu
lator. It required years of continuous effort
to beg from the school children of Philadel
phia the cost of the statue of Washington
which now stands in front of Independence
Hall, and the only hope of completing the
proposed monument in Washington Square is
based on the gradual accumulation of funds
from compound interest on a small capital.
We believe that by hard effort means were
finally raised in this city to purchase a statue
of Lincoln, and the dny is porhnps not very
far distant when it will be erected; but, like
all other American works of art, it is a very
modest and cheap affair when compared with
the tribute to Vanderbilt. Some time ago this
project was conceived in the gigantic brain
of a modern sculpist, and after he made his
drawings, and submitted them to a committee
of New York gentlemen, we are told that "the
funds were quickly subscribed." The work
was begun at once, under strict injunctions of
secrecy, and it has been completed in a single
year. A good idea of its magnitude is given
by the statement of the Tribune that "it covers
an area of JUL'.t square feet, measures 150 feet
in a straight line, and !51 feet in extreme
height; weighs neurly 100,000 pounds, and
cost over half a million of dollars." The
centre consists of an immense bronze statue
of the Commodore, who is surrounded with
nearly everything else under the sun, includ
ing steamers, locomotives, Neptune, sea
monsters, birds, fruits, lighthouses, cotton
bales, fences, cows, etc. Nor is this all. "At
the extreme left Liberty sits erect," and
though we doubt whether this was not a
serious blunder, we are consoled by the state
ment while "two harvesters" are "in the at
titude of working," the artist has not forgot
ten to give the finishing touch to his work by
introducing "a raccoon peering around the
corner." lie is said to be looking at a sea
wionster, but this must be a mistake, either of
the reporter or the designer, for we are satis
fied that his true duty is to keep a
sharp eye on the Commodore himself, who
is a representative man of the railroad mono
polists of the country. Some of these fine
days he will prompt the people to inquire
how and why these magnates are permitted to
amass wealth so rapidly and to acquire such
wondrous power not only over the industry,
but the politics and legislation of the land.
He will force men to ask whether we are
really passing through a quiet but none the
less effective revolution, which transfers the
control of public affairs from the hands of the
people to cosy railroad offices, and makes
representatives and Governors the mere pup
pets of railroad Presidents, ears ago the
nation was profoundly agitated by the allega
tion that the United States Bank exercised
undue influence in public affairs, but it was
an innocent and impotent lamb compared
with the powerful railroad lions which now
exercise despotic sway in many portions oi
the Union. It is unnecessary to particularize
Every intelligent observer of the current
of events will readily perceive that the
main miestiou is as to ine extent to
which State Governments are subser
vient to railroad influences, and the
name ot the company or companies wnicn,
for the time being, are in the ascendancy,
Railroads are a great necessity of the age, and
it is just and desirable, in view of the nseful
mission they perform and the heavy respon
sibilities they assume, that their officers
should not be bound by frivolous and nnne
cessary restrictions; but admitting all this,
should not limits of some kind be set to their
power, and should not the existing and future
interests of the American people be more effec
tually guarded than at present ? In no other
government in the world are railway kings as
powerful as in the United States, and nowhere
else can thev amass wealth and influence
with the rapidity displayed here. Their in
telligence, energy, and enterprise deserve
rich rewards and all due respect, but even
great railroads will be bought at too dear a
price if they are purchased by the liberties of
the nation, and if the lions share of the
profits of the national industry is to swell the
plethoric pockets of railway kings.
ThkTkadb op Switzerland. The burghers of
the Swiss cantons deserve notoriety for the exact
ness with which they record the commercial statis
tics of their mountain republic, and for the scrupu
lous fidelity with which they tally off upon each
lndlviduul poll in their boundaries the amount for
which he, as a luckless unit, is responsible aa a con
sumer or a producer. The principal articles of con
sumption imported during 1808 amount to 121,994,8!M)
francs, being 48f. 69-3 centners per head, exported
4,468,630, equal to 9f. 74-6 centners, making an
excess of ex pores of 91,526,200 francs, or 88f. 84-7
centners each. The main article shipped by them
abroad 1b cheese, to tne amount of 17,024,830 francs,
or ef.78-1 centnera each. The receipts of grain
make nearly one-half of the value of Imports, being
S3f. 46 centners each. Coffee and sugar are favorites,
amounting to 6f. 87-6 centners, and 4f. 02-8 centners
each respectively. Spirituous liquors are almost as
much In demand, almost none of which is manufac
tured on their own soil, unless their retailers have
taken a hint from the universal habit among their
brethren in this country. The stomachic capacity of
each inhabitant for wine the figures say is 6f. 92-u
centners, for brandy and spirits 2f. 16-8 ceutuers,
and for beer 17-6 centners.

Fimam Compositors We commend the follow-
Ing from the London Pubtiiherit' Circular to tho at
tention of those who In this country are Interested
In the question of women's work and wages. It I a
matter of vital importance that those who are seek
ing to open np new fields of employment for women
shonld And out as early as possible what they can
and what they cannot do. We give the statement of
the tublinhers' Circular for what It Is worth, without
undertaking to decide how for It may be right or
wrong In Its conclusions; but If women cannot work
at the type-setting business with a much effect as
men, the fact ought to bo thoroughly well unper
Btood as soon as possible, to prevent any waste of
energy and bitter disappointments in that direc
tion :

the Kansas Pacific Railway. These
Bonds pay Seven Per Cent, in Gold;

the Company also owns Three Millions

THE NEW LOAN. There is no better
