r. Garfield, of Ohio, son of the late Presi-
dent Garfield, for the office of Commits
sioner of Corporations. the most i'm
portant post under the direction of Sec
retary Cortelyou, since 1t will be the
duty of the Commissioner to probe the
workings of the Trusts under the
Trust publicity provision of the act es-
tablishing the new Department.
The elevation of the Presidents
secretary to the Cabinet receives prac-
tically unanimous approval in Con-
gress, although Senator t. Q. Platt
took the position that Secretary Cor
telyou should not be charged to New
York, inasmuch as he is not and has
not been active in politics in that State.
Secretary CortelyOu is a Republican,
but he was appointed stenogra pher at
the White House under President
Cleveland in 1895, by transfer from the
Post Office Department, on the rec
Ommendatian of Postmaster General
Bissell. In less than seven years, and
at the age of 40, he has been promoted
to the Cabinet without political aid
and on merit alone.

THE SMYRNA TIMES. WEDNESDAY, AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY

attention to the fact that for six years
past, by private assurance, by the pub
lie press, in fact, by every known
means of communication, you have
contended that the personality of John
Edward Addicks was the sole obstacle
to a restoration of party law and of
majority rule.
The demand has been necessarily
made that he be withdrawn as a can
didate. Your demand has been com
piled with. This determination was
inspired by the desire to restore party
unity to bring all Republicans of this
State back to a condition of peace and
to reestabish party law, and those
rules for party government in Della
ware that obtain generally throughout
the Union, in accord with the spirit of
our National Constitution. 1t may
also be admitted that there was a de-
sire to show clearly and definitely
whether the personal candidacy of
Mr.. Addicks was indeed the cause of
political anarchy in this State or
whether it was in effect a factional
fight, purely for supremacy alone and
the spOils of office.
No part of its inspiration was due to
a desire to trade or dicker over these
high positions. The time has passed
for such considerations. The stu
alton is clear since Mr.. Addicks has
withdrawn as candidate before this
Legislature.
There is no longer any reason why
the party should not unite and chose
two Senators for the Senate of the
United States in a lawful and regular
way.
We definitely decline any other set
tlement of this matter, unless the
proposition be accepted to elect two
Senators, each to be the unrestricted
choice of each faction.
This is signed by the 81 Union Re-
pnblicans.
Smyrna times., 1903-02-18

SPEAKING of good roads, a subject
which at the present time is of much
interest to our farming communities,
the Milford Chronicle has the follow
ing to say "The political parties of
Delaware stand pledged to enact legis-
lation that will give to Delaware better
roads, and a better road system; but 1t
is subject of such gigantic proper
tions that the Legislature is staggered
at the largeness of the problem Sew
eral propositions have been introduced
and have had consideration in commit
tee-but all are costly systems, and
each loaded up with a standing execu-
tive bureau requiring large annual
maintainance accounts. This feature
strikes the average Legislative mem
Der as a scheme that will bear watch
ing-and very properly.
"A plan that involves the annual ap-
preparation of City thousand dollars
annually to each of the counties for six
years, and conditioned that the county
should provide a competent head for a
Bureau of County Roads; and that
each county shall also apportion to
each of the districts an amount from
this State appropriation equivalent to
the amount raised by the districts for
road improvements to be expended
under, and in accordance to the Coun
ty Superintendent of Roads.
"This plan would make the Levy
Courts and the people of each district
directly interested and responsible for
improvement to public roads. We be-
lieve such a plan entirely feasible and
hope to see it put into effect"

college, but is held not to be part
year until the sum should reach $25, 900
provided that equal distribution be
made between the white and cOlOred
students. Under this, Delaware Col
Iege receives $50, 900 and the colored
State College $4,000 None of this
money can be used for buildings and
repairs.
There are 112 students at the college
of whom more than 100 are residents of
Delaware and hence receive free tuition
At 800 per capita, this would mean
$4,000 of free tuition year. Manlove
Hayes in asking for $4,000 for build
ings and repairs said that if Delaware
College was not doing a good work he
would not advocate the giving of dol
lar.
Smyrna times., 1903-02-18

ONE bill now before the Della
ware Legislature that should receive
careful and thoughtful attention is
bill to appropriate $4,000 for Della
ware college. This institution, the
only higher institution of learning in
the state, needs not only the financial
support, but the hearty cooperation of
every citizen. The college has made
rapid strides in recent years and each
year it is becoming better equipped un-
til now it can be said with pride, that
few institutions of its class can surpass
it. Just a. the present time there are new
buildings and repairs needed. and the
Trustees are invoking the aid of the
Legislature for $4,000. Friday they
were given hearing by the members
of the House and Senate.
Delaware College is now assisted by
three funds. Under the original Nor
rill land bill, the land which was Della
wares share, was sold for S83, 600 and
the money put into bonds. The state
has given the college a certificate of
indebtedness for that amount and pays
six per cent, net interest, and the in
come is S4, $50. In 1888 the Hatch bill
began an annual appropriation for
agricultural experiment stations, of
S15, 200. The station is located at the

Cupid and An Irate Papa.

Last Sunday Frank Qualls was an
arrival from the Blue Lead mine at
Sheridan. He came down to knock
the pans Of Cupid into a cooked
hat, as it were. But, assis usual in
suchcases, he failed. He got the
idea that John ID. Commerford, and
his daughter. Miss Mabel Qualls,
had eonspired together and had
matrimonial intentions. And Papa
.Qualts was right-they had. Upon
his arrival in this city$he found that
