ELEUIIUN BILLY
Some Objection to Printing
Charges Withdrawn By
the Levy COurtmen

DOVER, Del, Dec. 1.-THE Lecy
Court paid the printing bills incurred
in holding the recent election, just
before adjournment last evening. The
Democratic members held up the
printing bills for some time and
showed a disposition to cut them,
some contending that the newspapers,
in cha ging fifteen cents per line for
the two insertions of the advertising
(really seven and a half cents) was
too much. Messrs. Gooden and Hughes
thought that If the Levy Court was re-
quired to pay for all that advertising
Of instructions to voters and sample
ballots, the work should be put out to
contract
Commissioner Carmean, Republican,
defended the bills, declaring that il
was unbusiness-like for a board of
directors TO have one of its members
contract for certain work, as had
.Cle.k of the Peace Darby, and, after
the work was delivered and accepted,
to go In and cut the mans bill in
half. Mr.. Darby and the Republican
members took the same view and the
Democratic members withdrew their
opposition.
Il am only looking after the inter-
ests of the people of Kent county,"
said Commissioner Truax, "and if it
is right to pay these bills as they are.
all right. I'll not oppose it, but this
condition ought TO be remedied."
The bills were ordered paid as fol-
lows:
Delaware State News. S1S6; Repub-
lican, $196; Index. SS3.75; Smyrna
Times, S104; State Sentinel, 1886. The
Sentiners bill included the cost of
printing and furnishing all the bal
lots used at the election places.
Levy Court accepted the resignation
of William S. Smith as contable for
the Ninth district, and appointed two
successors, both Of whom reside in
Harrington-Clyde Van Geisel and
Edward S. Derrickson.
