No More Brick Pavements.

The town Of Lewes has forged ahead
of the Kent and Sussex county towns
in the matter of street paving. Re
Gently several of the towns, including
Dover, Smyrna and Milford, started a
campaign for better sidewalks, and or
dered each property owner to place a
new pavement in front of house or lot.
Nearly all the freeholders complied
and bricklayers were kept busy for two
months.
Those who did not comply are now
being forced to lay or pay the contrac-
tors deputized by the town to do the
work. The municipal officers of Lewes
took the same course except that they
made an order that no more brick pave
ments should be laid, but that cement
or concrete paving should be done on
all the principal streets. There was
fully one-third extra cost to this form
of paving, but the people had to com
ply, and now Lewes is a town of most
attractive and modern pavements that
are guaranteed to lasta lifetime, while
Dover, Smyrna, ct al. have only the
same old-fashiOned brick pavements
which will again have to be relaid il
a short time.
Cement pavements, however, were
adopted by some of the prominent b u
mess men, and have already been laiC
on the principal business streets, anC
within a fortnight a fine concret
pavement will be laid in front of tn,
Federal building property at the foo
of Lockelman street.

On Tuesday the Regular Repub-
licans of Kent county assembled
at Dover in convention, and nomi-
mated a ticket which they profess
to hope will poll enough votes to
defeat the Union Republican county
ticket, and replace in the Court
House and throughout The county
that party which some of them
fought long and valorously to dis
place. 1t is said that this action
was taken so that DR.. Ball might
have something to offer in barter
for Union Republicans support OF
his nomination. Union Republi
cans supported and elected DR.
Ball once to Congrass, and know
their reward for so doing.
If the Union Republican State
Central Committee should, at the
solicitation of the Regulars, attemp
to force upon the Union Republi
can ticket the name of DIR. Ball
not only would he fail to poll tn,
votes of that party, but would
surely lose for the ticket on which
are already the names of two Reg
ular Republicans, the votes o
many who weuld otherwise give
their hearty support.
This year the Union Republi
cans have already endorsed two O
the three Regulars nominees OF
the State ticket and two on tn
Sussex ticket, and entered int
common. primaries with them i

WASHINGTON NEWS.
washington, Sept. 9. 1902.

President Roosevelt, showing lit
tie effect of his recent serious &C
cident apart from a bad bruise on
his right cheek, passed through
Washington on Friday on his way
south. To day heis spending with
the locomotive fremen who are
gathered in annual convention at
Chattanooga, Tenn. Tomorrow
he will visit Knoxville, Wednesday
he will spend at Asheville, N. c..
and on Wednesday evening he will
pass through Washington on his
way to oyster Bay, where he will
remain a little over a week rest
ing, and will then go West on his
long anticipated western trip. The
enthusiasm which greeted the Pres
ident il Washington and, in fact,
all along the line, must have proved
most gratifying to him. The peo-
pie in their desire to express their
satisfaction that he had escaped
with so little injury from his ser
iOus accident cheered him repeat
eddy and vOciferOusly. Mr.. Roose-
welt declared that he was none the
worse for his mishap, but expressed
profound regret at the fate of poor
Craig, " to whom he frequently re-
ferred. Apparently the sudden
killing of his faithful attendant
has saddened him.

THF peach market at Milford
for 1902 has closed, and the grow
ers have reason to feel salts
fed with the results. While the
average price is not the highest,
yet it has been between forty and
fifty cents per basket to most grow
ers; while a few of those who had
young orchards and choice varie-
ties have made an average of sixty
cents.
Peach growing as a business has
changed greatly in the past ten
years, and with the refrigerating ia
cilities now open to shippers,
peaches are shipped all over the
United States; which enables the
cities to get ample supply of choice
fruit at all periods of the season.
This condition alone has killed of
the market for the small and me.
dunn grade of peaches, and only
the choice varieties bring profta-
bic prices.
This again brings the grower VI
against the requirements necessary
to grow nice fruit of even the
choice varieties. The orchard:
must be fed with potash and nj
trogenous fertilizers, either by com
mercial manures or the growth O
COW peas. This alone will insur,
successful peach culture in Della
ware.

older and more respected members
of the party are silent on this sub
ject, large amount of space is de
voted to the erratic views of the
Tennessee Senator and those who

argument, recourse has been had
to the reports of the members of

ments which are totally unfit for
reproduction in a pamphlet inten-
ted for general circulation are pub

ply, and that tank steamers hav-
ing from 10000 to 10000 barrels

the Atlantic Seaboard at a mini

is preparing the report says that
with coal at from So to s.. so per

timated that the oil can be sold al
from 80 cents to 40 cents per bar
