number of persons viewed the launch, aud
about one hundred persons. including large
number ofladies, were on board. The cutter
carried the American jack at the front and
the national ensign at her stern. The launch
was one Of the prettiest that has occurred at
the yard.

The Legislature Adjourned.

The legislature adjourned on Friday last;
although it looked like an impossible thing
for it to do with the amount of work before
it when the week opened.
The Grst thing out of the ordinary on
Friday was the killing of a liquor bill, and
closely following it, was the Chicago Beef
bill
The next ripple of excitement was over
the Senate bill to increase the jurisdiction of
justices of the peace from sIeo to $500. Mr..
Lodge opposed it. He said that some JUS
tees were hardly competent to attend Pro-
perly to business under their present juris-
diction, and that an increase of the limit
would only tend to increase litigation. Cap
tain Eckles maintained that the bill would
decrease the business of the lawyers and
tend to decrease petty litigation, DR..
Richardson said that the people generally
seemed to be in favor of this bill, and then
the measure was voted upon by viva voce
vote, in which tile negative volume sounded
somewhat in excess of the affirmative. To
Speaker Hofecker's ear, however, the vote
appeared conclusive, aud he formally
announced the passage of the measure.
The new State House act was then called
and laid to rest.
immediately after came the report of the
committee on accounts. In the accounts of
the compensation Of members mileage was
included, aud Mr. Clark caused some COM
ment by declaring that the IS miles allowed
him by the committee included his travel by
railroad only. By carriage way he was only
10 miles from the capital, and he only asked
mileage for 10 miles instead of the rs
miles allowed him by the committee. Mr..
Hynson was similarly situated, in being
credited with 80 miles, when his home was
only 10 miles from Dover "as the crow flied"
He, however, was willing to compromise on
20 miles, and this amount was placed on
his credit.
Then Mr.. Maull spoke Of the allowance of
$50 to R. K. Keuuey, Esq, for drawing bills,
and said that Mr.. Keuney's services i'll draw
ing the bills for taxing telegraph and express
companies, which drew to the State a
revenue of at least s., 900 per year, were GER
tainly valuable. He moved to increase Mr..
Kenney's allowance to $3.50.
THE SCHOOL BOOK ACCOUNT.
The special committee to investigate the de-
felt in the State school book account made
a report stating that it was caused by loose
ness in the management of affairs, and that
the State has lost about $40, 900 by its exper-
fence in the book business. The committee
submitted the following statement:
Excess paid out by State Treasurer
oyer amount received from school

Wilmington Fair.

The grounds of the Wilmington Fair Asso.
citation presents a scene of activity every
day. The quarter stretch has been entirely
sodded and gang Of men are now at work
excavating for the basement of the main
building. The dirt taken therefrom is being
used to fill up the various holes on the
ground, which will give the latter an even
appearance. Every afternoon local horse
men are on the track testing the speed of
their animals. Children can also be seen
there gathering violets, of which there is an
abundance.

have been fully described in the Morning

THE Legislature adjourned on Fri,
day night last,after long and memoir
able session. From the first caueuses
to orgOnize,tO the closing scenes of the
last day, the peculiar formation Of the
two branches was noticeable. Party
lines were rarely drawn, and the lack
of confidence in each other was mani
fest in members of both parties. The
Walcott Democrats early agreed to
disagree with their Salisbury Demo-
cratic brethren, and the factional lines
in the Republican members were as
plainly discernible, il not so publicly
manifested. In thrOttling the will of
the people in the matter of calling a
Constitutional Convention, we believe
that the Democratic Senate has dealt
its party blow from which it will be
hard TO recover; and in enacting laws
looking to the great reforms so much
needed in our State government, the
Republican House has made a record
for itself Of which it may we'll feel
proud; but its best efforts were doomed
to defeat in the Senate. This has
made campaign capital that will be
hard to break down, and II the Repub-
lican party will work as assiduously
for success, as it has labored to keep
up its factional fights in the past, the
results of the labors of the General
Assembly Of 1889 will not be in vain.

The Legislature.
lFr0m AZ 90 .Adge,liser.l

From Nelos and Advey1isey.)
The biennial growl that the Legis-
lature has been in session four months
aud done nothing, is again heard from
those whose criticism is of so superior
a kind that it disregards facts. The
record shows that more bills have been
acted on at this session than during
any previoussessiOn, and many Ofthem
are of general importance. There are
two classes of these critics; one COM
plains that we have too many laws
aud too much lawmaking; the other
class complains because the Leglsla-
ture does not enact more laws. The
reason that some reforms sought have
not been effected is because the Senate
would not concur with the House In
any such propositions.
Milford chronicle., 1889-05-03

THE CHRONICLE has always been Il
ready advocate of progress and inn
provemsnt, and has never failed to give
credit to whom due, IN the discharge
of public duty; but claims, and will use
the privilege, Of critlcising public
work when done in a manner that it
deems not best suited to the public in
terests. It is matter of surprise how
unreasonably some people view news
item when ii criticises their work OF
judgment. No official should sink his
dignity by undue wrath, because his
acts are criticised by the local press;
much better to take the suggestion as
an opinion of the public which the
writer is representing, and profit by
such of its suggestions rs he may upOE
consideration deem proper and in
accord with the publics interest.

Nf'roW morning Nez0S.)
The Post Onlce Department officials
have rescinded an order issued during
the last administration, having for its
object the encouragement of the prac-
tice by tralnmen of carrying special
newspaper correspondence and other
matter on other than mail trains. It
is said at the department that there
are very large number of small towns
throughout the country which have
meagre Geographic facilities. III many
of these villages the post and telegraph
offices close early. and to prohibit train
men from carrying to the neighboring
town or city small packages contain
ing possibly information of the high
est general importance is regarded as
unwise and unjust. The newspapers
of the country It is maintained, should
receive every possible facility for OBJ
flaming and disseminating the news
fthe day, and to this end trainmen
will be encouraged to lend their aid.

Another Railroad Accident.

Last Saturday morning John Scott, veteri-
marian, was struck and seriously injured by
train No. 50, due in this city at 1907 O'Clock,
at Iynam's crossing, a short distance below
Newport. Dr. Scott was driving into the
country on business, and had his carnage al
most completely closed to keep out the rain.
He looked out, but did not see the train, and
drove up the track. The engine struck the
buggy, completely wreeking it and releasing
the horse, which ran on uninjured. The
train was stopped and the injured man
brought to this city. DR.. ]. A. Draper was
summoned and found the injuries consisted
of bad cuts on the head and injuries to the
spine. He was removed 10 his home on the
Hare's Corner road. The crossing is the same
one where Polk and Miss Finn were injur-
cd a short time ago. -1forging Meas.

AN unfortunate war has broken out
among the Republican leaders OF New
Castle county; and it all resulted from
the biennial election law enacted by
the Legislature for the city of Will
mington. Editor Sperry, of the Morn.
ing Meas, and F. Z. Bach, who is the
private secretary of Senator Higgins,
are the principals. By the latter the
law is thought to be a cloak under
which the Democratic party of Will
mingtOn Will be able to vote hundreds
of illegal voters; while Mr.. Sperry
believes the law will elevate, or tone
up, the moral of city government. Mr..
Bach has an eye to county results,
while Mr.. Sperry wants the city TO be
pure in spirit, and trusts in the slogan
of Constitutional RefOrmu to hold
the county. Well, we are sorry that
good Republicans fight each other. We
had hoped to see the swords of discord
beaten into pruning hooks,aud used to
gather in the harvest in 1890; but pres
ent indications point to bloody
chasm, oyer which the Republican
party of New Castle county will be
fortunate indeed to escape.

IF the people who work for the State
of Delaware, were all thieves and liars
of notoriety, they could not have been
treated much worse by the members
of that joint committee on claims, " no
served the legislature just adjourned.
Without any cause, argument,or even
so much as "by your leave' they cut
down legitimate bills from twenty to
seventy-five per cent. We know Of
one bill where the amount cut gilmore
than covered the profit of the entire
bill; extending through period Of
two years. We are informed that the
State of Delaware can't be sued, and
that there is no way to collect the
claim. If this be so, then we do need
a new Constitution worse than we
thought; and one that will make the
State pay its honest bills. The names
of that grave and parsimonious joint
committee should be engraved upon "a
marble tablet,and it be placed over the
portals of that new Insane Asylum the
State authorizes to be purchased from
New Castle county.
