A REPUTABLE citizen of this State called
At the Office OF Clerk of the Peace Foard
yesterday afternoon and asked to see the
Court Records in reference to the in
spectors convicted for the election frauds
of 1896 in New Castle county. 1t is al.
most needless to state that the request
was refused
Clerk of the Peace Foard, evidently
forgets that he is public servant, and is
sworn to let any reputable citizen ex-
anime the records of all cases that come
under his jurisdiction.
Clerk of the Peace Foard, when he as
sumed the duties of his office, was well
aware of this fact, and yet in number
Of instances has refused to allow certain
court records to be examined.
1t is just such miserable political up.
starts as this that have smirched the fair
escutcheon of the State of Delaware. He
must remember that he is no more than
any other citizen, and in fact not as
much. He is a public servant paid by
the taxpayers of the county and has n"
right to refuse any citizen access to the
records.
1t is Just such men as this who have
compromised the courts of this common.
wealth. To say the least they should never
have been trusted with the trust given
by the people. He is bonded to faith
fully perform all the functions pertaining
to his office and he should be cognizant Of
the TACT that the title which accompanies
that office-CIerk of the Peace-does not
confer any more honor with it then TIE
assistant dog catcher of the city of VIII
mington would.
Another question that arises when he
thus endeavors to shield the names Of his
political friends is, Has he the conr
records of the election frauds of 1896 it,
his possession? If so, why should he fu,
an instant refuse to let reputable citizens
examine them?
THE Sun has no suspicion that such a
condition of affairs exist, but by his re-.
fusal Mr.. Gle k of the Peace Foard leav .
himself open to suspicion.
He further shows that he has no COLI
ception Of the duty that he has sworn to
perform and sets himself up as the mon
arch of all lie surveys.
Does Mr. Clerk of the Peace Foard
own the Court House? No. then VIII,
should any demand made upon him in
reason be refused?
Will he answer the question? He is
nothing more than hlreIing, the same
as any other person holding office by the
suffrage Of the people. When a citizen
calls for snch records. it is his place as a
servant to grant him what he has a
right to know. Instead Of hs being die.
tator,this political upstart is in servitnde
and, ,as such took possession of the Office.
The office of Mr. Clerk of the Peac.
Foard, or any other office don't transfer
man to all the power in this common.
wealth. He is nothing more than a ser.
vant and citizen does not have to take
any Of their "duff." He we'll knew
when sworn into Office that he was
bound to serve the people of the State,
the same as President Mckinley is bound
to serve the people of this country.
lie is 10 more than common citizen,
if he does hold Office, and in fact he i.
not that, for citizen is a citizen and Mr..
Clerk of the Peace Foard is a servant OF
the citizen, no matter whom he may be.

He has produced no proof In spite of
the fact that the charges are criminal he
contents himself with making the un-

The Levy Court has made no protest.
Every body else in the county has.
Offers of money have been made to
Mr. Bancroft to induce him to produce
the proof.

that he might expect to get from the

M. c. GOLF CLUB EVENTS,
Scores of Recent Games in Composition
The Schedule.

Scores of Recent Games In Competition
The Schedule
The delightful autumn weather, which
every one hereabouts is now enjoying,
has the effect to bring out many enthus-
lasts to the links of the Morris County
Golf Club. Indeed, the scene on the
course daily might easily impress one
that an interesting tournament was in
full progress. AS an illustration of how
fascinating the game is to those who
have acquired knowledge of it, the
play of two well known members of the
club on Wednesday is cited. They were
Robert D. Foote and Archibald Forbes,
and both played from s a. m. until dark,
with an intermission of only 45 minutes
for lunch.
On Saturday the first competition for
''Secretary's Cup" approaching and put
ting contest, was held, and W. @. Sut-
phen wen with score of "a. Mrs. Will
liam Shippen and Robert D. Foote tied
for second place with 26 as score. The
s'Secretarys Cup" is contested for every
Saturday and the player having the
highest number of points at the end Of
the season will receive the trophy.
Wednesdays competition for the
s.Woman's Cham mpionship Course Cup, !"
which is handicap, full 1s holes. was
won by Mrs. William Shipper, who
played at scratch and returned the ex-
cellent card of 1O7. This is but one
stroke more than the woman's record for
the long course made by Miss Griscom
of the Philadelphia Country Club during
the championship meeting.
If the pleasant weather continues dur
ing October the coming month will be
one of unusual interest to members of
the Morris county organization. A list
of events for the coming week is ap-
pended:
Saturday, Oct. 1-Women's home
teams, match play, IS holes. Captains
Cup and Secretary's Cup.
Monday, Oct 3-Team match, Morris
County women against Field Club girls,

BIG INcENDIARY FIRE.

A large fire, undoubtedly of incendiary
origin, occurred early Saturday evening
on the property owned by the Morristown
Land Co. and located on the Madison
road near the Morris County Golf Club
ground. The buildings burned com
prised two barns, 40x5O feet and 45xS0
feet, respectively, and sheep pen, the
latter adjoining the big barn. Joseph
Burke, dairyman, is the tenant and
all of his COWS and twenty-five sheep
were saved. The fire was discovered
shortly before s o'clock and started in a
hay NOW. There was $4,000 insurance
on the buildings and $4,000 on grain and
farming implements, which amounts
cover the loss.
An alarm was sent in to Morristown
fire headquarters from box 55 by an ex-
cited youth who probably thought the
apparatus could be sent by rail to the
fire, by which route he reached the scene
some time after. Upon the order of the
Mayor, Humane Engine was sent to the
place, which is at least a mile outside
the city limits. Resolute Hook and Lad
der did not wait for a similar order and
the members of the company who went
were reprimanded by the Board of
Engineers for leaving the city.

MISS DANA's SCHOOL.

We understand that the most satisfac-
tory schedule for class work has this
week gone into effect in Miss Dana's
school, which opens with the largest
number of day pupils in its history.
The faculty remains substantially the
same as last year. Owing to the illness
of Miss Grouse, who is unable to return
for the present, the history classes will be
under the direction Of Miss Caskey of
Morristown, graduate of Mt. Holyoke
College and Hartford Theological Semi
nary.
The curriculum has been broadened by
the addition of several courses of class
work. Miss Stark, in addition to her
usual Delsarte classes, will meet the
young ladies once week for discussion
and training in social forms.
Miss Dana this year continued the
charming custom of entertaining a group
of graduates, whose presence in the house
during the opening week of school not
only gave pleasure to themselves and to
their hostess, but was genuine social
addition and was appreciated by the
snew girls" The guests Of this year in
cluded four of the graduates and one spe-
cial student: Miss Truesdale from Chica-
go, Miss Bowen from Cincinnati, Miss
Shipman from Belvidere, N. j., Miss
Lippincott of Philadelphia, and Miss Ro-
gers from New Canaan, Conn.
