If Directors Johnson and MELVIN
81 the Street and Sewer Depart
meut are not above suspicion. then
there cannot be found two meu IN
this city who are. They have al
ways borne the best reputation for
honesty and integrity, and their
word ia as good as their bond. They
could not afford to s:ultiiy them
selves. Money will not be nee eied
when appearing before the Board
to ask for permission TO do anything
that is right and proper. And they
will guard the interests OF the city
40 we'll as they would their own
affairs. The people can trust them
eyely time. We know both men
personally and have had business
dealings with them and therefore
know whereof we speak about
them.
Two better men could not have
been selc c,ed for the Street and
Sewer Department if the city had
been searched all over. We believe
in speMns OF men as voa lind
them. We have no axe to grind or
no favors TO ask at their hands.
They are the servants Of the public

Bristol Def.a.s N.lmi5yton.

Those present ut Pyles Cycle
Academy last night witnessed one
of the fastest basket ball games
that was ever p aged in this city.
The game Was between Bristol
champions of the National League
and Wilmington champions of the
American League for the champion
ship OF the United States. The
visitors won ont by the small
margin Of 80 to n. The defeat
however was no disgrace to tho
home I'm as it put up an un-
usually strong game.
In the first half Wilmington
played Bristol clear off It's feet,
and when the whistle sounded
lead by score Of IA to 8. The
long training Of Bristol told in
the second half. They played
with continued vim while Will
mington got slower as compared
with their work in the first half.
In addition to this when Br;st u
forged ahead of the locals it too
seemed to take some heart out of
Wilmington, until the last few
minutes Of play when the locals
pulled together and run the score
from "a up to II and came near
giving Bristol heart disease in the
last two minntes, for fear the score
would be tie if Wilmington did
not actually win out.

Thus far no evidences has been

been burned at the city erematory.
The Impression which has been
given ont thai the tax collectors

is entirely uncalled for and wrong.
The collectors have never done
anything that would make the peo-
pie look upon them as being dis

should rest under the imputatloH
that has been ssnl broadcast that
