NOT PLEASED WITH
POSTOFFICE SITE

LEWES. Dec. 15.--The Virdln House
property has been selected by the sup
ervising architect Of the Treasury De-
partment for the new postofiice site.
This property is owned by Theodore
Veasey Of Delmar. il is situated on
Front street between Market and
South There was appropriated at the
last session of congress $4,000 to pur-
chase location here. The trouble
was in getting property with the di-
mensions. There We're a number Of
properties for sale but were scarce
consideration.
The Lewes Pilot is not satisfied with
the site. and says:
Only one argument occurs TO US in
favor of this selection. and that is
those who will be employed in the
new building when it is erected will
have a very fine view of the break
water and bay; and even that ar
.rangement does not appeal TO us very
strongly and might be answered by
saying that those who will be employ
ed in the building will be supposed to
have something else TO do than to
spend their time enjoying the scenery.
on the other hand this site is not any
where near the geographical centre Of
the town nor its centre of population.
Then too, a more inaccessible location
could hardly have been selected, as fits
only avenue Of approach from Second
street. the principal street of the town,
is through a long. narrow and dark
alley; so that it viii not be safe or fit
