fear from the railroad commission or 9TH
er officers of the state.
If, however, an adjustment satisfactory
to all could be secured there are none
but believe that it would have a very
beneficial effect on all lines of business.
This could be done by the Intervention
of mutual friends, or by bringing the
question direct to the railroad commits
sion on a plan of agreement whereby
raises and reductions could be mace here
and there that would be pleasing to every
interest.
AS a matter of fact the state has shown
a disposition to do this sort of thing.
Those roads which agreed to the sched-
ules were given permission to charge "a
cents a mile passenger fare. while the
law put 1t at 21s cents. None of them
have awaited themselves of the offer so
far, however. Perhaps this basis might
! be reached for all, along with lowering
! of freight charges to more or less ex-
tent.
Such move would be very pleasing to
all classes of people and meet general
approval. In fact, there are many lead
ing railroad men who express the belief
that they can get satisfactory settle
ments with the present railroad commits
sion. 81 am agreeably surprised at the
liberal attitude of John A. Lusk, the
new man on the commission" said a
prominent railroad man. HE has shown
Il ulSpOSlllOH 10 SEE our Siue ludl IldIly
did not expect, in view of his attitude
in the senate"
Both Sides Willing.
There is no doubt but what both the
state and the railroads, in the feelings
of their officers, would be glad to see
settlement brought about Some of the
railroad men seem to think that the most
promising way would be through con-
ferences of the officers of the roads and
members of the railroad commission. An
other railroad man, well versed in legis-
lative affairs, thought the governor would
be the best man to take it up with If
at all.
There is nothing authentic about the
things stated here, other than several
men on both sides OF the controversy
have expressed a wish that a settlement
might be reached without the tediousness
of trial of the rates. In other words,
thoughtful men on both sides take the
view that 1t would be a mighty good
thing for all concerned and the state at
large If the whole controversy were end
ed in the adoption of a rate schedule
satisfactory to all interests, which can
be done with little concession on the
mart of each litigant.

HUNT SPEAKS.
Tells Negroes That Farm Is Best
Place for Them.

Normal, May ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
sizing the Importance of diversified crops,
proper seed selection and study OF the
merits of the soil, as given in the state
soil surveys, Ben P. Hunt, member of
the board of commissioners, delivered the
second of a series of lectures on "Agri-
culture" to the negro students and teach
ers at the Agricultural and Mechanical
college here yesterday.
Mr.. Hunt stated that the white farm
ers had produced 81 per cent of the cot
ton crop of the south, according to the
latest census, but explained that 1T was
due in a large measure to the fact that
the negroes were being scattered, going
into the cities and towns, and many to
the north. He stated that while he real
lied that there were advantages and OPP
portunities to be had in the cities that
could not be thought of on the farm, 1t
was likewise true that there were dangers
and temptations to be met, that people

SOME WEEKEND GOSSIP
FROM THESTATE CAPITOL
BY HERVET, w. LAIRD.

Montgomery, May 15.-(Special. )-There
is goodly number Of well-meaning cit
teens who believe that there ought to some
effort to adjust the differences between
the state and the rail lines without pro-
ceeding further in the suits that are now
pending. This based on the fact that if
the recent court ruling holds, the rail-
road commission will have the legal pow
er to make rates as well as chan e EN-.
and can negotiate a settlement that would
be legal and satisfactory
One of the irritating things of the whole
situation is the classification of the rail
roads, the Alabama Great Southern being
given a better showing than the South and
North division of the Louisville and Nash
vile, while it is as good road as the
South and North This was done to show
appreciation of the Southern for accept
ing the state rates. and it is an open Sc
cret that many leading men of the ad-
ministration forces protested at the time.
AS concession to a settlement this could
be remedied, and would be. one is told
Time for Test.
There is this thing in the way of a set
lust now at low ebb and the traffic
men would welcome a trial of rates now,
as they would be sure to show up the least
favorably for business. Railroad men say
that the state, for this reason, has tried
to avoid an early test-in fact, have not
sought test. This is not an undisputed
statement. as all may know, but it is so
that the time to test the rates could never
be<better than at the present This may
bring about the further litigation of the
laws and prolong the struggle far into
the fall and winter
The friends of the Louisville and Nash
Vile profess to fear that any move would
be dangerous to that company it being
their belief that Gov. B. B. Conner and
most of his friends are so antagonistic
to the road that they will spare no oppor-
tunity to injure it. Governor Conner, in
talking of the outlook. said: 1T is not
the purpose of the state to Cypress these
roads, or any corporations. On the other
hand, the officers desire to do only what is
right and business-like to all concerned !"
He said that no railroad had anything to

SUSSEX coUNTY's FINANCES.

THE Milford Chronicle says that 'it learns
Il with regret that the county orders of the
Sussex Levy Court are not worth their face
value in cash. and that discounts of from five to
ten per cent are insisted upon by dealers who
shave them at Georgetown"
The Chronicle points out that this revives
the conditions of twenty-years ago when the
Democrats controlled and mismanaged the df-
fairs of the county.
The Chronicle holds that the law which set
back the date for discounting taxes SIS partly
and very largely responsible for the lack of
funds in the county treasury, yet there is a lack
of business ability in the management of the
Levy Court" OF course this is a Sussex coun-
ty affair To one outside of Sussex the wonder
is that county which has made such great
progress in all the material things as Sussex
has done should have difficulties with her
finances. AS the Chronicle says Sussex is more
able to pay cash promptly than either of the
other counties of Delaware and the whole trou-
bic is in the financial management displayed.
No doubt the advisers of the court will be
able to bring order out of chaos and the Chron-
ice says they should do so at once. People in
all the counties of the State will have to learn

a pusmess I'M, bdsis-4fl levy CeHft is really
the most important bit of machinery in a coun-
", and a party that hopes to succeed must
see to it that the Levy Court is conducted in
a proper manner.
Years AGO the Democrats had control of all
the Levy Courts in the State. They lost such
control through mismanagement They have
regained possession of the Levy Court of Kent
county, but we fancy that their victory is but
temporary In this county the Democrats have
been almost wiped out of the Levy Court. II
