Property of all Corporations in Dis

By the recent Legislature a law
was passed making the property of
all corporations within a school dis
trict liable to taxation for school
purposes. This applies to railroads
trackage and buildings, telegraph and
telephone lines, etc 1t should largely
increase the taxable property in many
districts unless our absurd and in
iquitous method of taxing for school
purposes on rental values interferes.
Another law was passed giving the
County School Commission the right
to include within school district
any real estate not within the limits
of any district. There is much prop
erty in Sussex and Kent Counties.
Commissioners of districts adjacent
to such lands should notify the County
School Commission at once. so that
all such property may be placed and
included within the next regular
assessment.

DOVER CHURCH DECISION
TO Be RENDERED FRIDAY
THIS is THE WORD PASSED
AMONG THE DOVER LAWYERS
Additional Briefs Submitted to The
Chancellor Last Saturday Case IS
Exciting Much Interest.

Ex-Secretary of State James H.
Hughes and John B. Hutton, the
lawyers representa- the congregation
in the controversy over the possession
of Wesley Church property, Saturday
made their final brief with Chancellor
Nicholson in answer to the brief and
arguments of counsel for the Will
mingtOn Conference and two com
plainants of the congregation. The
brief sets forth no additional features.
The chrr n is still locked against the
pastor, Rev. E. L. Hoffecker. twas
learned Saturday, says the Sunday
Star, that movement is on foot in
Dover by the members of Wesley
Church to buy the Dover Opera House.
The plan is to utilize the building as
place for holding religious services,
to be directed by Rev. DIR. A. w.
LightbOurne every Sunday, and to
lease the auditorium for meritorious
attractions during the week. This
scheme, however, will probably not
be agitated until the final decision of
the chancellor in the present litiga-
ton to determine the ownership of
Wesley Church shall be given. If
the churchmen shall buy the theatre,
it will be the most novel plan ever
adopted by religious body in the
history of the Wilmington Conference.
DR.. Lightbourne will continue to hold
services in the Dover Opera House.
To all intents and purposes, he is still
the minister Of large majority of all
the congregation of Wesley Church.
The officials of various M. E. Churches
in Wilmington and throughout the
Wilmington Conference are engaged
in searching the titles to their prop
critics in order to definitely learn
whether the churches and parsonages
belong to the conference or to the
respective trustees. The decision OF
Chancellor Nicholson in the contest
for possession of Wesley Church prop
erty will probably be announced by
Chancellor Nicholson on Friday. This
was the word passed about among the
Dover lawyers interested yesterday.

Delegation Visit Levy Court and Ask
Them to Abandon the Old Road.
A Woodland Beach delegation WISH
ted Kent Levy Court Tuesday and asked
for improvements on the road between
Smyrna and Woodland Beach. AS the
present road is almost impossible,
owing to the high tides, the court in
clined to abandon the old road, and
appointed a committee, consisting of
Messrs. Truax, Sherwood and Car
near to view a new road at Wood
land. More than $50, 900 has been
spent in repairing the old road but
each time it has been washed to sea.
Both Republican and Democratic Levy
Courts have been importuned to make
some permanent repairs but the
treacherous condition of the marsh
and the enormous cost to build and
maintain a road, has caused slow
progress. The citizens of this island
are demanding their rights and the
new roadt promises to be forthcom-
ing soon.

GOVERNOR NEARLY READY
TO NAME NEW JUDICIARY
ONE OR TWO PLACES STILL UN-
SETTLED IN COMPLETING LIST
Boom Started For Alexander M. DAILY
For Judge-at-Large-Said to Have
Backing of Temperance Folks.

Talk over Governor Pennewil's
probable appointees to the judgeship
has narrowed down to seven men
again, six of whom it is said, will
certainly be selected to constitute
Delaware's new judiciary chancellor,
chief justice and judge-at-large, and
three law judges, known as resident
associates of each county. The gen.
eral impression among those in as
close touch with the situation as is
possible under the reserve which
Governor Pennewill is maintaining,
is that three positions of the six are
positively settled. They are: Chan
ceilor, Charles M. Curtis, Republi
can, of Wilmington; chief Justice,
James Pennewill, Republican, of
Kent County; associate judge of Kent
county, William H. Boyce, Democrat
of Sussex. The three other judicial
positions are it is claimed, only
slightly in doubt. Of these the one
most certain is that Postmaster
Henry c. Conrad of Wilmington will
be appointed resident associate Judge
of Sussex county. For judge-at
large, the name of Alexander Daily
has now been brought to the front
and politicians about Dover asserted
that he would positively be appoin-
ted. He is practically the Demo-
cratic leader of Kent county and a
shrewd politician as we'll as a good
lawyer, and the leaders of the Repub-
lican organization in Kent County,
which county recently dropped out of
the Republican ranks and over to the
Democrats, have come out in the open
for DAILY. The name of Former State
Treasurer Martin B. Burris is heard
spoken of as the resident associated
for New Castle county. Eight years
ago, Mr.. Burris was the regular Re-
publican nominee for Congress and
was changed to State Treasurer when
two Republican parties merged their
tickets. The name of Frank l..
/ Speakman of Wilmington, late secre-
tary of the Republican State commit
tee, is heard in connection with the
resident associates position for New
Castle county, as it has been all this
year. Just thirty days now intervene
in which there must be the governor s
/ announcement of his selections, the
! Senate's confirmation, the acceptance
of the lawyers selected, and theii
commissioning and qualification by
the governor. The governor will
probably call the State Senate to.

FRUIT HOPELESSLY DAMAGED
Peaches, Pears and Plums Killed by
Frost and Freeze of this Spring.

Peaches, Pears and Plums Killed by
Frost and Freeze of this Spring.
The collapse of the fruit crop is
complete, says a Dover correspondent
to the Sunday Star. Delaware is
doomed this year as a fruit-growing
State. Her celebrated peach baskets
will carry other products to market
of they carry anything at all. John P.
Wilson of Philadelphia, who owns the
Wilson peach and pear farm below
Dover on the kits Hammock or Bay
road, today completed thorough ex-
animation of his orchards. Instead
of usual yield of II, 600 baskets of
peaches and 5000 baskets of Keifer
pears, the Philadelphia finds such an
aching void that he has given orders
to plant ten acres of ordinary white
potatoes and see if some of the lost
profits cannot be recovered There
is not one basket of pears on the place
outside of what will be used for
family purposes on the farm. From
present indications there are about
1000 baskets of peaches on the trees,
but these have yet to Withstand the
"June drop. Fruit growers are of
the opinion that the May frosts and
the recent freeze effectually killed
the fruit crops, except in isolated or
sandy places.
