LOCAL oPTIoN-TEMPERANc Lee
TURTLE FUNDING BILL.
Correspondence OF the Gazette.
DOVER, March 2, 1881.
The passage by the House of the
Local Option bill was a great surprise
TO many. 1t, with the strong proba.
bility OF passing the Senate, will have
an electric effect on the whiskey men.
During this week several have been
with us and pext week we expect a
full corps and a well organized lobby
to gimlet the Senate. The question Is
yet open and arguments exist on both
sides. A fair presentation of both
will lend great ard to those upon whom
the responsibility of decision rests.
In its present aspect the measure
will undoubtedly pass the Senate and
reconsidering the bill tomorrow in the
House, but athis is not feasible, we
think. Mr.. Bradford made brilliant
speech in favor of the bill and against
the substitute for the second section.
He said if you want to kill the bill go
ahead and do it directly aud not under
the plea of striking out single seq
tion, kill it by substituting nothing
for it. Other speeches were made and
points discussed.
Finally the bill came up and was
passed. Yeas, Bradford, Eastbul Ii, Eliason,
Pilling, Register, Swayne, Tomlinson,
Townsend, Vanburkalow, A. q. Will
Jams, Woodkeeper-ll. Nays Cahail
Graham, Jones, McNeal, Moore, Robin

Mrs. Foster of Iowa, a lawyer by pro-
fsssion, delivered most brilliant lecture
tonight on temperance. The House
In which she spoke, was crowded. Every
available seat was taken and standing
room was in demand. From O'Clock
10she poured forth her eloquent appeal,
which were frequently Interrupted by
applause. or the Intelligent womeI
who have addressed the Legislature tbi,
session she is the most brilliant: More
over she has right on her side and hel
arguments strike home with redoubec
force. When she spoke of sour sons
mary were move to tears.
The Senate spent most ofthe day upou
the bill to fand the State debt. The
amendments proposed make the denomi.
nation Of the bonds ST 900 and leave the
amount OF compensation for the State
Treasurer, Secretary OF state, and Audi
Tor who have the manipulation Of the
workings of the bill when it becomes a
law TO the committee. This afternoon
counsel were called IN by tue committee
of the whole aud the "lisht of their
learning" evoked.
Mr.. Belts suggested that stock in the
Farmers Bank and the Bank of Della
ware be converted, aud The debt reduc-
cd $4,000. There was no other mater
lal change other than this. The bill is
now in the bands of the committee. OBJ
Jectlons to the bonds being OF the demo
inination Of $1,000, along with the pro-
vision in the bill that the bidder must
take the whole amount or none, are
rife.

fresh, as many of the bargains
