G. H, Edmands, Jr., IS a can,

Mr.. Edmands is reputable
young business man and his ex

Congressman Graham is a can
dldate for re election. Mr.. Ora

that office so far, but are likely
10 put up such able men as G. F.

We have before US in this coun-

Der of men entered the field who
were wholly incompetent to fill
the positions for which they as

Dine forms a ] ,ckpot and lhrusts
the unfit man on the ticket If
he is not nominated he aud his
crowd proceed to defeat the RICH,
man, and if he wins he does rot

he has not sense enough to do
the work required of him. S let
us be careful and choose the men
who are doing the right thing, or
at least the men in whom we have
some confidence.
The Sheriff, Judge, Clerk, Pro.
bate Judge and Clerk, Treasurer
and Legis atOrs are very impor-
tant officers. The n gro voters
are instructed to support only
those who will give them a pro
portlOnate share of the political
pie. Are we not entllled to
something tangible in this coun
ty?
If the men IL high office will

serve defeat; and If they try and
cannot, the place is too big for
them and some other person de
serves the place.

1t is with regret that we announce
the resignation of Rev. Charles Henry
Holmead as rector Of St. Peters
Church. After carefully considering
the call he received recently to be-
come curate of St. Johns Church,
Wilmington, under Rev. DR.. Hall, he
asssembled St. Peters Vestry to-
gether Monday night and rendered his
resignation to take effect June 30th.
In his short year of residence among
US he has endesred himself to not only
the members of his own church and
Parish, but to the citizens of Smyrna
generally and he will take away with
him the good will and kindly wishes
of all who know him. Rev Holmead
is a young clergyman of more than
usual force and promise and that his
ambition shuld call him to large fields
Of usefulness is commendable and be-
coming the man, but with all there
is deep regret at losing his services
in Smyrna. He is an indefatigable
worker and good sermOnizer and has
given to St. Peters his best talent
and services. AS citizen of the
community he has interested himself
in all progressive movements that
had for its aim the betterment of
conditions in Smyrna Our best
wishes go with him in his new fields
of labor.
Smyrna times., 1910-05-25

1t looks now as if Smyrna was going
to attain its long desired WISH Fed
efal Building. A bill appropriating
$e5, 900 was reported favorably to the
upper house of Congress last week
and is now in course of passage with
Delaware's two senators working
hard to get the bill through without
amendments. For a time it looked
as if Smyrna was to be sidetracked
for Lewes or the bill allowed to die
in the hands of the committee. But
Senator Dupont came to it's rescue
and being a member of the Committe
or Public Buildings and Grounds
made a deal through a compromise
reducing the appropriation from
$40, 900 to S25, 600 with the under
standing that it would be reported
favorably at this session. If the bill
passes Congress at this session, the
money will become available some
time in July. So much for the bill
and credit is due the efforts of Sen
ator DUPONT for the fight he has made.
In urging this on from the standpoint
of the people of Smyrna, Former
Congressman Walter o. Hoffecker is
deserving of much praise. He has
kept continually after our represent
atives at Washington and saw that
no stone was left unturned. The ques-
tion of site should be met and settled
without delay. 1t is natural that the
eresideDts of Main and Commerce
streets should both contend for the
honor of having the Federal Building
on their street but it is to be hoped
the matter will be looked into wisely
and dispassionately and a site Sc
lected that will serve the best inter-
est of Smyrna.
