man came IRON New Castle county
and two OF the officers out OF e,gh-

And some persons residing down
10 Sockum wonder why they should
not be given all of the best Federal
positions 10 this city.
Shades Of Sam Townsend look
down on IFS, aud tell us New Castle
county people what We would get
it the Kent and Sussex people con
trolled the Federal patronage in
the city?
For this reason and the mean
contemplate manner in which New
Castle county aspirants for office
are treated in the Legislature SEES
sion after Eesslon what should be
expected of Congressman who
halls from New Castle county!
This we think was a mistake made
by some of the down country MEN,
bers OF the peace committee who
patched up the differences at the
the last election, OF the Congress-
man would have hailed from Kent
county. Then perhaps the Federal
office holders would have been from
some other cou MY than New Castle.
We have no disposition 10 cast up
only 80 far as to show what unfair
treatment the Kent and Sussex
people have given to the New Cas-
tie county people in the formation
OF the Legislature, inapror tioning
the positions that are within their
gilt.
We would advocate the removing
oil the capital from Dover TO WIZ
mington. This city is the proper
place for it and then perhaps the
formation of the Legislature in
giving out tine positions in that
body would be entirely different.
Dover is not adapted for holding
the Leg islature as the accommodate
tons are poor and the present
building 10 needed where sufficient
room should be provided tor mold
ing committee meetings.
II would rot cost the down coun-
try members any more TO come 10
Wilmington than it does the New
Castle members to reach Dover.
We think the rural members
would enjoy themselves 80 much

city. We say moe The capital.
