Eastern Shore Dredgers Have a
Lively Fight with the Oyster
P0itce-Half Dozen Wounded
Securing the Chesapeake.

BALTIMORE, March GA number of
oyster PUNCHES arrived here yesterday
bringing details of savage fight that
occurred on Friday in Chester river, off
the Queen Anne's county coast, between
heet oil oyster dregers and the oyster
police. Six or eight men are reported
wounded, and one or two may die.
Fairly on Friday morning IA oyster
boats sailed up Chester river under cover
OF fo5 and began dredging in forbidden
waters. In sailing up the river they ran
down small craft, and the angry captain
Of the latter landed and notified Captain
Cooper OF the police cutter Mamie
.Merryman.
The cutter at once blockaded the mouth
OF the river and when about midnight
the fleet attempted to pass she opened
upon the pungies with her swivels, a call
t. surrender having been disregarded by
the oysternen.
The schooner Eugene, Captain John
Wilson, of Baltimore. had her bulwarks
and rigging Immediately ridllrd, but
succeeded in making her escape after two
of her crew, John Paul and Patrick
Mckenna, had been severely wounded.
The former was shot through the body.

PUNCHES whenever a head appeared, until
the oystermen began returning his lire.
the whole fleet firing with rifles and other
weapons into the cutter. The fight con-
tinued until the eombatants had gotten
out into the Chesapeake, when the OYSTER
men scattered, two schooners, the kie and
the .he,rick, being chased ,orerhauled and
captured.
The 4Heryman took her prisoners 30 in
number, and lodged them in Chestertown
Jail.
None of the Merryman's crew were hurt
but her rigging is somewhat injured. The
police teet is now securing the bay for the
escaped dredgers.

The Metbodisf Conference Advising
the Lexisiature

Suppose that the Bishop of Whining
ton, VINO has the same authority over
Roman Catholic churches in Delaware
that the Wilmington conference has over
Methodist churches, were to send an off,
cial communication to our Legislature
commencing the House Of Representatives
for passing certain bill aud asking the
Senate to promptly take it up and pass it,
would there not be disposition TO resent
such an attempt ON the part of the
church to dictate to the State We have
no doubt that there would, and the feel
Ing would be very general that though it
might be that the Bishop had not really
gone beyond the right OF petition belong
ing to him as a citizen, he had yet, in
acting in the matter in his official
capacity, gone beyond the bounds OF
good taste and propriety. ---5-
If this would be true of Catholic
bishop, it is equally true of any other
Ecclesiastical body or authority, and
hence We think the Wilmington Confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal Church
stepped outside the limits of propriety
last week in the resolutions it passed
commencing the House of Representa-
tiyes at Dover for passing the Local
Option bill, and requesting the Senate to
at once put it upon its passage and make
it law. No sectarian body ought to
attempt to dictate legislation; for, ii it
can do so in one matter it can do it in
process until some dominant sect shall
rule the state.
That such ecclesiastical dietation would
not be wise is abundantly illustrated by
this, the first instance in which it has
been attempted in this State, for the
measure thus commended is an exceed
ingly faulty one, even i'll the eyes Of
many who believe in such Legislation. 1t
is regarded by many strict temperance
men as simply plan to transfer the legi-
innate sale of intoxicating liquors from
authorized dealers to druggists, and
many men who have examined it impair.
TALLY thoroughly believe that under
its provisions the illicit sale OF
liquor would increase enorm-
ously. The STATE JouRNAL which is

How To set shorter Legislative
Sessions.

There is . general desire that the
Legislature shall bring its session to
speedy close and various suggestions are
made as to measures to prevent long
sessions in the future. The fayorite
expedient appears to be to limit the length
of sessions arbitrarily by law. We doubt
the wisdom of such method as it seems
wherever tried TO have the effect of cauS-
ing large part OF the most important
legislation Of a session To be crowded into
a few days at the close when there is no
time for its proper and deliberate cousid-
Grafton. OF course this ought not to be
the effect OF limiting the length Of Il
session, but we are bound to take
into consideration facts as they are and
not as we should like them 10 be in
attempting to remedy public evils,
The way to reduce the needless length
Of the session Of our Legislature is quite
plain, and it is in the power Of every sue
cessive body to apply il, 1t is simply to
refuse any measure looking to a purpose
the lawful accomplishment Of which is
otherwise possible. Refuse absolutely to
even consider any divorce bills, and
leave those desiring divorces to the
courts. That would save a great deal Of
time. Refuse to be bothered by bills tc
lay ont, straighten, or otherwise
interfere with any public roads
since a general law already provide.

all, as step toward shorter sessions, re-

CONCERNING FERTILrzERs.

read the provisions of the bill and from
my knowledge of what the farmers want
To protect them from dishonest manufac.
Jurors IL contained the proper provisions
'lhat the state chemist shall make an
analysis from samples sent by manufac-
tuners or vendors, and that he shall also
make an analysis from samples taken
from trade packages found in the market,
ana shall publish i'll pamphlet form the
result OF the analysis of the two samples
sllr by side. 1t is not saying too much
10 say mat there are men engaged in the
business OF manufacture of fertilizers in
our state who are dishonest men,
and this is the class of men who
are ever ready to be on hand at the
atate capital 10 prevent any law from
being enacted that will be in the interest
oil the farmer and protect him from
the lmpositions of the class of dishonest
men above referred to. Whenever YOU
see any Of these fertilizer manufacturers
about the Legislature hiring lawyers To
do their dirty work which they have
inranness enough in themselves to do
vi hont at all hurting their already bad
regulations, yon may know they are the
men who are opposed to the enactment Of
any law that will protect the farmer from
their methods of robbery. From the long
tlme that the matter has laid quietly
III the hands OF he Legislature without a
word being said in regard to it, have
concluded that some OF the same influence
has been brought to bear that was EN-.
played to defeat the matter two wears
since, when was in the Legislature (and
that is money Furnished by the men en-
gagged IN fertilizer manufacture who want
to make AMI palm off on the farmer an
article OF no valneat high price). That
was the influence that defeated the
measure when prtitionel for by about a
Thousand OF more of the best farmers of
the state. And now let me say to the
farmers Of the State, arise up in your
might and let your Representa-
tiv"s know that you demand

who are now opposing ii Tor the purpose
