COL. DU POINTS SEAT
TO Be CONTESTED? +?

Democratic leaders in Delaware yield
ungraciou-ly to the will ola Republican
majority, ard the latest story they are
now handing cut is that a contest will
he made against United States Senator
elect Henry A. du POnt taking his seat
at Washington.
Report has it that Willard Salisbury,
late chairman of the Democratic State
Committee, has prepared the papers in
the contest and they will be filed when
Colonel du Pont presents himself to be
sworn in.
!There is scme truth in the rumor, y
said Mr.. Salisbury when spoken TO on
Monday afternoon, but he would not
discuss it any further. The reported
ground of contest is that the Republi-
cans are alleged to have used upwards
of S53, 900 in electing members to and
controlling the Legislature that selected
Colonel du Pont for Senator, and that
indirectly his election was due to fraud.
Republican leaders have been hearing
intimatiOns of a contest of some kind
to be made against Colonel du Pont for
several weeks, but are not alarmed.
They think it is simply another of the
bluffs being worked by the Democrats,
of which the Anti Bribery League is
one, to try to intimidate Republican
voters from registering.
One of the detectives sent by the
Anti Bribery League to Middletown on
Saturday last was Charles Hood,
Democratic negro of Wilmington, and
negroes were preparing to
drive him away when he left there.

GONNOR SUES
TREASURER RAWLINS.

James H. Satterfield, attorney, acting
in the name of Alvan b ConnOr, a
Senator in the Senate Of Delaware. and
the president prOtempore Of that body,
on Wednesday brought suit in man.
damus proceedings against Thomas n
Rawlins. treasurer of the State OF nela-
ware, for the recovery of S78 salary,
alleged to be due Senator COnnor tor
services to the State in the recent ex-
traordinsry session of the Legislature
which began in May.
Att the same time Attorney Satterfield
brought similar suit against the same
defendant as State treasurer, for the re
covery 1875 alleged TO be duel Edward
Goslee, secretary of the Senate of Della
ware, for services as said secretary in
the extraordinary session.
The recent extraordinary session con-
sumed thirteen working days, not
counting the Saturdays or Sundays,
although the members were not sitting
but five Ofthess days, having adjourned
over for more than week. They laid
claim, however, to thirteen days pay
at IS a day (the presiding officers re-
ceiving S6 per day, and so passed a
resolution to that effect in each house
which did not require the signature of
the Governor.
State Treasurer Rawlins refused the
payment on the ground the legislators
could not claim thirteen days pay for
five days Of service. If Connor now
wins his suit, all the Legislators will be
paid accordingly, and if Goslee wins
all the attaches will be paid.

All Halloween in Milford.

A movement is now in progress to
have a grand gala parade and celebra-
ton in Milford on Halloween night.
William Gray is the prime mover in
the affair, but it will take a spOLtane.
GUS assistance from the public and the
merchants to make the affair a success.
The firm Of w. A. Humes & Son have
signified their willingness to make q
large float representing their business,
and others are willing to take part.
The Red Men will make 3 parade in
costume, and the Milford Band will
lend their services to make the matter
q success. We suggest that there be q
committee formed to take subscriptions
to carry the proposed parade out on q
liberal scale, and that the merchants
and towns people generally take part
in having a great time. 1t is only a
few weeks that the work can be done
in, and it will not push itself. So lets
have some fun, real fun not horse play

tacular effects which will be remem-

to the town. The Chronicle will do its
part yes, more than its part but all

To Try Rural School consolidation Plan.

The agitation for consolidated public
schools in rural districts which has been
made by Superintendent Carroll and
Others in Delaware, has had its infiu-
enee over on the Eastern Shore Of Mary
land. The report comes that the school
commissioners Of Cecil county have
taken steps to make a practical test Of
school consolidation. The first move
in this direction has been made by
Commissioner George o Geary in the
Fifth District and the Shswhah School,
about three miles from North East, has
been ordered closed, and the pupils that
attend this school will be transported
to the North East High School in the
wagon now being specially constructed
for the purpose. Since the fact has be-
come known that school wagon is to
convey the children of this school,
demands are being made from other
sohoolsthat children who are far enough |
advanced to enter the High School be
permitted to come in the wagon and
be enrolled as pupils of the high school
at North East. The County COmmis
sioners in June last made a special ap-
preparation to the School Board Of $1,000
for this purpose.
