Address. THE UrTELLlfJEHCSX, Lancaster, l'a. LAK0A8TK,PA., January 16, 1890. A Delaware lllnmlsatlea. The republican managera of Dela ware rhe bad the Infinite aildaclty te ak the Bnpwme court te 'declare that tax receivers must glVc tax receipts te these who offer te pay the taxes of ethers, have had the riot act read te them in the decision of the court, which Informs them that tax receivers are net obliged te furnish political ammunition te any party; that their duty is te re ceive the tax from the debtor and te give him a receipt for it ; that if they de net de se he may get an order from the court directing it te be done; but that there is no duty upon the tax collector te give Harry the receipt of Tem or te forward in auy way Harry's desire te get possession of Tem or his property or bis vote. The court further comments upon the failure of both par ties in Delaware te enact the Australian , ballet Bystcm uhlchltthluks well calcu lated te secure the integrity of the ballet. The Judges of the Delaware supreme court are old men, but they are net senile in their intelligence. They knew and they declare seuud political dectrine and geed law. They knew thai the theory of popular government requires man te be an autonomy and te work out his own salvation without the enre of attorneys, agents and friends. Tlie " blocks of five " principle finds no favor with the Delaware court. If n man cannot himself comply with the requirements of the law that provides him with a ballet, he must generally de without it. He must be able te pay tax and te pay it him self, just ns he must be ali!e te go te tbe pejls and cast his ballet himself. This act cannot bedone by an agent; neither, under the sound Judgment of the Dela ware court, can the act of getting the tax receipt, which Is precedent te the ballet, be se done. The blocks of five dectrine would com mend the agency act in gathering tl'-j tax receipts. It Is the bottom Idea of that doctrine that the voter needs te betaken care of a great deal ; se much in deed, that one sentinel is needed te every Ave limber voters. This agent keeps a watchful eye ever them until their ballet is taken, and holds the ballet until the very moment for its deposit comes ; when, in obedience te what he conceives, te be a very silly prevision of the law which requires the ballet te be cast by the voter himself, he delivers It te him. The Delaware court is of opinion that the Australian system of voting carries out cfllclently the prop prep er practice of the suttrnge. And in this opinion of the Dcleware court there is general concurrence of Intelligent opinion, eutstuiul circles of working politicians. In cities, the ma jority party fears lest Its power will lie diminished by the lack of control which the demluaut party naturally holds ever the floating vote. And qulte probably there is ground for this idea, ltut It Is net one which should have weight with the law maker or which should luuuenca n fair Judg ment. Even te the partlsau It must be clear thet the gains and looses from this cause will be equalized and that a much mere comfortable and eceuumlcal elec tion will be had when the floating vote Is leftte float by itself. The working poli tician may object that his occupation Is gene ; but it is an occupation se wretch edly mean nud se poorly paid that these who will mourn it must be few indeed. Against the theory of the Australian ballet system nothing can be wisely said. It simply provides for the taking of the ballet with the secrcsy which the hrw-rcqutrca, but v hlch it wholly falls te enforce. The only consideration U as te whether the proposed system will se cure its object. This experience has shown that it will de if It is properly carried out. Whether it will be se ' carried out in this ceunti v, If it is estab j, lished by law, is the doubtful question. There is se strongadlspeiltlonto "beat" the ejection laws shown, when the test r of the politician's vlrtue comes in an exciting cIcctien,that it may be doubted whether the Australian polling booths will stand the strain. Nothing shows this depraved political t tendency mere than this application made te the Delawate court for authority te political ageuts te pay for and take ., possession of voters' tax receipts ; a pro ceeding se flagrantly opposed te the prlnciple of a secret and In v dependent ballet, and se strongly I odorous of bribery and corruption, as te demonstrate in the most vivid way the miserable condition of the vision of :' these who could se leek at it as te be f persuaded that there was a hope that a court or taw would compel the dellvciy te a political agent of the title te a citi zens vote. The Lessen of Portugal, lu addressing the Pertugese chamber of deputies en Wednesday Bener Pimeu. tal said that Portugal had the right en berslde, but Great Biitaln had might. This is a humiliating confession for a minister te be obliged te make and there hi a grave lessen in it for ether powers. Whether Portugal is right is another matter but the spectacle of n nation submitting te overwhelming power mvi biuiu jiiuii-auug mjaiusi injustice 1-3 la ccrtalnlv net a nleasant ntie. mul If U no wonder that the Portuguese should display Impotent rage at their own humiliation. In theory, at least, nations and individuals pride themselves en never submitting te an Injustice without a struggle, but in practice resistance jeuld often be Quixotic, nnd weak little Bni,Bali wltu two or three modern war Ute tdjeul(l de nothing but yield te the xeeul fleets of England. -Suppose Hint ute had been between America fc'laud with each slde equally Ooerkof being in the right.

It would be very humiliating te have our splendid capital again burned by the British or another power, and yet high authorities have declared that the transportation of an army of sixty thousand men would I n very easy matter.

Mr. (Jewcn'ft Insurance. The Insurance en the life of the late Frankilu B. Gewen amounted te sonic two hundred and twenty thousand dol lars and the companies are taking great credit te themselves because; they pro pose te pay the policies in full in splte of the rumors of sulclde. They could net dls.pu.te payment with the slightest chance of success. If 'they could prove sulclde with intent te cheat them, they most certainly would refuse te pey lu spite of the prominence of Mr. Gewcu because such refusal would de them little or no harm as all men would admit its Justice. The proof, however, would have te be very positive and lu the face of the fact that the windows of Mr. Gewcn's room were net fastened, and that It N u very easy matter te turn n key in n deer from the wrong side, It would be very dlfllcult te make it appear that the Insured man had certainly killed him self. It would be equally haul te preve that It was net an accident or a freak oflnseulty, although both these theories seem quite as untenable nstliu deliberate suicide notion. Km:n Pasha 1ms had a rolapse, and tliorenro fears of an nbce-s In the brniu.

It would be a grcnt pity and Ien If this famous mnn should dle without tell ing his slde of the btery of his resetie, and giving soine account of his rule of his African province. Xew rules have been formulated for the appointment of civilians te second Uoutcn Ueutcn ancles In the army, and graduate? Irem In stitutions giving military instruction ure te recolve speclal consideration whlle mom mem mom bers of the National Guard are also specially provided brand rigid examina tions are required of all. Only theso can didates will boexatninod who have a letter from the war depaitmnnt autherising t Item te npply, and It may be hoped that this authority will only be glyen te All vacan cies left after all the West Point graduates have been assigned te duty, and the promotions from the ranks provided for. It very often happens that the true military genius dovelops w itheut the as as hlstance of a military education, and as the nation run net afford te deny Itself the benefit of casex of this kind the provlnlens for appointment of elllcers from civil Ilfe and from thnrankn nre wlsaaud proper. Thore Is always danger of abuse of nrrjngo nrrjnge uientH of this kind and a tendency te innke the army nerve as a Itetany bay for the worthless relatives of meu of inlluciu-c. The clmractoref ineu lu power 1h tried, and may be accurately moasuied by their treatment of opportunities of tlds kind. President Cleveland In his four years only appointed euu second nentenant from civil life, and shoued his appreciation of the fact that our little army in peaceful tinies should 11 ml enough olllcer.s In Us ranks and at the Point, and only icach oulside lu exceptional eases. It has been noted that (here Is a gieat difference in the Intensity of the electilu currents Hied for street lighting In cltlen, and the West Chosler A'ficj lu lu obligat ing the question found that at Media the curient employed was 1,800 volts, whlle in West Chester only 110 volts are roqulred. Te touch the Media wires would be fatal, but In West Choster "the men handle the wires with Impunity and knewthut If they jrfieuld ohanee te recelve tho-fuU-ferco of the current no Injury v HI he sullcrcd. In deed It Is a common thing for thorn tecatch the main conductors and let the entire force of the whole plant pass through their bodles. The explanation was that when It Is necessary te Bupply lights at a long distance from the plant the current must be many times Intensified, owing te the rosistauce of the wires, l'er instance, the current used In West Chester would net give geed sei vice at a distance of half a mile from the wlcctric light station, whlle outheethcr hand it Is propesod at Media te bupply lights ut Swarthmere college, soine three miles distant." Kdlseu was certainly right In advising that the strength of a curreut should be limited by law, for it Is net right te Imperil llle In the effort te sorve electricity ut long range, i Imply be be bo cause It U cheaper.
