| Dissatisfaction Over the Award
ing OF the County Loan to the
| Farmers Bank.
s'At no time have the politicians been set
| guessing more. than at the present time In
Delaware. The appointments of the
jurges to the judiciary have been sur
prise to them. That the Governor is in d.
fluencod in his appointments by members
of his party in Kent and Sussex counties
goes without saying, He was fairly be.
sieged to make this and that appointment,
and Judge Grubb had as much to do with
tho personnel Of the present court as any
other man in the State. His influence
with the Governor is paramount to that
fany other man in the State There ap.
| pears to be no question of the fact when
taking the make out Of the bench as our
| Judiciary Is now made up. The Governor
has received some condemnation for the
| county his enemies Claiming that bv his
| action he has placed an unnecessarv and
| uncalled for debt on tho State of s750o
| which will he naid To the retirin1 iudVe
