IF no constitutional objections inter

comparatively easy. L think the New

measure yet offered. I look for the
next congress to pass some law upon
this matter. The representatives IF
most Of the arid states have earnestly

something tangible to the people.
II sincerely hope that within a few
years the question of retaining the

washington, d. c, March 2.-Reprc-
sentative King made the following
statement to The Herald correspondent
tonight regarding the course this con
gress has pursued with reference to the
irrigation of arid lands in the inter-
mountain and west coast states:
NO previous congress has given as
much attention to the subject Of re-
claiming the arid lands as this. While
# has enacted no laws upon the sub
ject, il has considered various bills. and
important committees have reported
some which contain meritorious provis-
i0ns. The subject has complications. so
that even friends of reclamation by
federal government are not fully agreed
as to the best rse to pursue.
However. distinctive gains have
been made along lines OF congressional

proposes to sell the Jail property and
other county property, situated in
: Georgetown, and to remove the jail to
the almshouse farm This looks very
nice on paper, but when put into ac-
tual practice will be a bad thing for
the county. While the Jail in its pres
ent condition hardly meets the require
ments, yet we must look ahead a little
10 see our way out Of the dilemma. New
Castle county has an elephant on her
hands in the way of penitsntiary now
building. Like Farnhurst, it is cnly
going to be a few years before the
institution is going to be saddled on the
State Then IL will be that Sussex
county VIII need a jail merely for
locking up purposes between court
terms, and the present structure will
be amply sufficient to meet all de-
mands. The prisoners can then be
taken care Of much more cheaply in
Georgetown than they could at the
almshouse farm, because there nor
here could they be compelled to work,
pending trial. Then again the expense
of removing the jail to the almshouse
farm would be stupendous as COM
pared to It's real utility under the new
condition Of things above recited The
county would have TO be bonded to
the extent Of from S25,000 TO $4,000 in
order TO build new Jail. There
would have to be extra jail officials
added in case the removal was made.
The pleas that the prisoners could be
completed to work on the farm would
not hold under any circumstance when
VIC shall have a State penitentiary
Thus 1t will be seen that there is alb
solutely nothing to gain by removing
the Jail from its present site TO the
almshouse farm but everything TO
lose, to wit; The cost of building a
new jail, the extra cost Of running the
same and the lack of convenience of
the same to our Court House. Under
all the circumstances IL would be a
bad thing to remove the Jail from its
present site. Then again, the county
should keep the ground it owns in
Georgetown. In the future we may
need other county buildings, and IL is
safe TO say that the present lands will
not be sold for as much as it would
cost to buy them back again. in case
OF an emergency, because a large part
OF the same are now encumbered with
ninety-nine year leases.

REMOVAL OH
DELAWARE COLLEGE
Discussed at Special Board
Of Trade Meeting Last
Night

Members Of the Educational Commit
tee Of the Board OF Trade. officers and
trustees of Delaware College, and
prominent men of this city who are in
terested in educational matters, last
night entered into discussion both for
and against the removal of Delaware
College to this city. The meeting was
held under the auspices of the commit
tee OF the Board Of Trade, and was
presided over by George A. Elicit, the
committee chairman.
Those who favored the removal of
the college here made their argument
first. They are w. w. Lobdell. Horace
G.. Knowles, William A. Reynolds. A.
S. Reed, Harry Emmons, r. J. Nc
Lean. II. G. Cause sent a letter favor
Ing the removal OF the institution here.
II was the opinion Of the speakers that
the college would be benefited II To-
Gated herea Mr.. Lobdell offered fifteen
acres of land on which to locate the in
stltutiOn, and other business men Of
fered material support.
The college trustees present were
Chief Justice Charles y. Lore, J. Har-
vey Whiteman, Charles b. Evans. James
Hossnger and II. G. NJ. Kol,ock, OF
Newark, and George Biddle, of Elkton,
ali of whom are opposed to the re-
removal Of the college. Letters were
read from eight other trustees who are
opposed to the plan. as follows: Ed
ward Reynolds, OF Middletown; d. w.
Corblt. of Odessa; S. M. Curtis, of New
ark; w. II. Purnell, of Georgetown; J.
c. Stockley OF Smyrna: George G..
Byans. of Newark; Manlove Hayes, OF
Dover, and DIR. l.. II. Ball, Of Faulk-
land.
Chief Justice Lore was the principal
speaker for the opposition. To remove
the college here he said would mean
that the trustees would have to expend
upwards of 100000 in new buildings;
the $4,000 given the trustees by the
government annually would be forfeit
ed; the removal would saddle addition
al debt on this city and in other ways
the good of the institution would be
crippled.
The committee will make its report
to the board at its next regular meet

DECISION ON
THB INJUNCTION
Hearing in Cincinnati Fight
Will be Heard on
Thursday

Cincinnati, Feb. 12.-The hearing Of
arguments by Judge Hollister on the
application for permanent injunction
against the Jeffries-Ruhlin contest here
next Friday night closed shortly after
6 o'clock last night. Judge Hollister
announced at once that he would re-
serve his decision until il a. m. next
Thursday. All the arrangements at the
big hall and elsewhere are completed
and the sale of tickets continues brisk.
The hearing in Judge HOLSTERS court,
which began last Tuesday, and the
declarations of the governor, evidently
do not affect the demand for tickets.
Before the courts the arguments OF
Hertenstein and Bettinger and Wilson
for the defendants and Of Harmon and
Wald for the plaintiffs were very Wig
orous, and commanded the closest at
tention. The plaintiffs urged the
court to establish a precedent for such
extraordinary cases. Counsel for the
defense replied bitterly to the purpose
Of inventing precedent. The passes be-
tween counsel were sharp. The old
riots of 1884 were recalled by Harmon
to which Bettinger and Wilson replied
most earnestly. The most remark
able argument was by Gustavus Wald
who closed. and who. as a representa-
tive German. insisted that he did mol
represent any creed or class, but the
best interests of secular government
Most of the clergy of this city were II
the court room. Wald turned to then
when he said that neither he nor anl
member Of his family belonged to {
church. and that none Of his kindred
for generations have belonged to an,
church.

TO say that the county has sQuandered
more than $50 900 in the past few years
through the mismanagement OF the
