FOR DIVIDING NEW CASTLE COUNTY

A bill to divide New Castle county was
introduced Monday by Representati, e
Holcomb. The measure creates two
counties--Wilmington and New Castle
and gives Wilmington city much larger
representation in the Legislature. It
provides that Wilmington county shall
have three Senators and ten Representa-
tiyes. Wilmington city has now only
two Senators and five Representatives.
The bill cannot become law, however,
unless it is ratified by the next Legisla-
ture, because Of the change in represen-
tation. 1t names Wilmington as the
county seat for Wilmington county and
New Castle as the county seat for New
Castle county.

THE JURY coMMIss1oNER RILL

The Senate has passed with
an amendment the so-called
Whiteman Jury Commissioner
Bill, to provide for two COM
missioners one of each. political
party who shall draw the juries.
This in the past has been done
by the Clerk of the Peace and
Prothonotary who drew the
names from lists prepared by
the Levy Court We have been
in favor Of this measure as it has
been presented to various Legis-
latures for the past ten or twelve
years, but of its amended form
we do not approve. The amend
ment is to make it applicable to
New Castle County alone. If
the change is a good thing for
this County where the Demo-
Gratis do not have a hope of Sc
curing control of the Levy Court,
why is it not a good thing for
Kent and Sussex Counties which
they expect carry? And this
change was the result of the
votes of the Democratic Sena-
tors from Kent and Sussex
Counties.
1t is true that in the past under
the Democratic regime New Cas-
tie County juries had become
bad and places on the jury were
considered as reward for politi-
cal services. In those DAYS
special juries were demanded
in many cases. But since the
Court declared null and void the
jury panel at the May term of
1901, not special jury has been
drawn. In the other counties
the conditions have been as bad
as they were here and the same
Improvement has been shown
under Republican rule. We
have the authority of one of the
leading Democratic lawyers of
Kent County for the statement
that at one term of the Court in
that county the jury panel was
so bad that all the attorneys
joined in an agreement not to
try a case at that term. It
never was so bad in New Castle,
although heaven knows it was
bad enough. Yet the Democrats
of Kent and Sussex want to i'm
proxe New Castles system while
retaining the acknowledged bad
system ii their own counties.

! ARBITRARY RULINGS

Speaker Anthony of the Hous'
of Representatives has aroused
much opposition by his ruling:
upon matters of law and parlia
mentary rules during the session
now coming to a close. Every
one believes that Mr.. Anthony
is honest in his opinions and has
the courage Of his convictions.
His first incorrect ruling was
upon the bill making an allow.
ance to the Auditor of Accounts
for extra work. on which he be.
lieved three -fourths vote to be
necessary. This week he was
bitterly attacked by the friends
of the local option measure when
he claimed that he as Speaker
had the right to declare the pro-
posed billunconstitutional, there
by taking to himself the powers
of the Supreme Court. Again
on the measure providing for a
tuberculosis hospital, he claimed
a three-fourths vote necessary
to pass the bill.
We believe that Mr.. Anthony
is wrong in his premise that the
Speaker has more power than
any other member of the House.
He was elected in the same man
ner as the thirty -four other Rep
resentatives and only represents
one district. 1t is the province
of the House to make its own
rules and the duty Of the Speaker
to enforce those rules.
Speaker Reed said, when the
famous rules of the Fifty-frst
Congress, "They are not Reed"
rules but House rules" So in
this case, Mr.. Anthony should |
enforce the rules as he under
stands them and not try to make
new ones. To admit that pre-
siding officer. of any body has
the power to add to or take from
the rules of that body would be
dangerous. Under the govern.
ment of an honest man like the
present speaker, it would not,
possibly, do any serious harm,
but all men elected to the Legis.
lature are not honest, and it is
probable that the future may see
one of the other kind elevated to
the Speakership, and he might
claim under the precedents es-
,ablished the right to be the
whole House. It will be we'll if
,he House should by a decisive
vote, take this matter up and
iettle it on its merits without
'egard to the particular matter
,r bill affected by the ruling. 1t
$ a blow at free, popular govern
nent and should be strenuously
.esisted.

AN EXPLANATION

To THE EDIroR3o The ,MIDDLErowl
TRANSCRIPT. I'm reply to the editorial il
one Of Delaware's Sunday papers l woule
ask you to publish the following:
The readers of the TRANscRIPr are ia

at the Board of Trustees of Delaware
State Hospital. Now comes vivid bio.

agement. with rasping references to the
Assistant Superintendent who made the
charges: itgoes on to say that the charges
are imaginary and inventive purely as a
matter OF spite.
Now to offset this in the minds of
those who might think such | have only
to site the following:
At the Feb. meeting made tile same
charges as did at the March meeting, at
the former meeting the reporter Mas kept
in an outer room SO nothing was heard.
After this meeting | saw one Of the
trustees in his own parlor, ] said to him:
''WelI 1 suppose the trustees thought l
said what l did through contempt or
spite for DR.. Hancker. The reply was,
''No Doctor, We knew it before. DR..
Black cautioned him and we thought
everything was all right now" And the
trustee who I saw on the train coming
from Middletown said. "Yes, too bad, it is
sad condition Of affairs"
Now here are three trustees who know
conditions as they are at the Hospital.
and there has been no talk of an investi-
CATION. II there is to be an investigation,
who is to have it, if not the people Of
Delaware through its legislature.
The trustees know full well the condi-
tions and | fully know can prove !
to the satisfaction of all what said.
Ifan investigation occurs will not only |
have the two trustees to repeat their own
words but several others who will corro-
borate what say.
have made some serious charges and
if they are not true then am liable for
defalcation of character.

excellent position and subjected to one

Hospital that made the disclosures.
1t will be remembered at first / left on
