NEW BOULEVARD
FOR RIVER TOWN
Delaware City Hopes to Profit
Much From I'm
prOVement
Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DELAWARE CITY, Del, March 30
Through the efforts of the Good
Roads Committee of this town, Cap
tain l.. s. Ryan, George Batten and
r. A. Peacock, the new boulevard is
practically assured An offer Of $3.50
In cash has been made if the commit
tee raises a like amount. At the
present time the treasurer, Mr.. Pea
cock, has in hand about $500 in sub
scriptions and the committee is now
working hard to raise the required
amount.
The purpose of the movement is to
provide a continuation of the county
macadam road at the north of the
town, through Fifth street to Fort
DUPONT, a distance of about eight
tenths of mile.
The material to be used in the con-
struction of the boulevard will be
? 1-2 in. limestone with filling of
clay and sand rolled solid with a
topping OF lime dust, l 1-2 inches
thick. The side will be crowned,
there allowing a dirt road on each
side of the boulevard. The most mod
ern and approved facilities will be
used for the drainage. The boulevard
will be one of the best in the coun-
try.
There is no doubt that the boule-
ward will boom the property values on
Fifth street which is becoming one of
the most popular residential streets
in town.
This will not only be boom to
those living on Fifth street, however
but to the whole town. because of the
increased trade brought here by the
farmers.
When the boulevard is completed
II will mean a macadamized road be-
tween Philadelphia and Fort DUPONT
a distance of about 55 miles.

The outcome of the Kansas Demo-
cratic convention. like that of Okla
homa. is favorable TO Speaker Clark,
but is at the same time an extra
ordinary proof of the popularity OF
Gov. Wilson of New Jersey among the
Democratic voters.
Speaker Clark's friends controlled
the Kansas convention by slender
margin. This small majority il is
generally admitted, was due to tae SUI
periority of the Clark organization
over that of Gov. Wilson. So strong
vas the Wilson minority in delegates
and popular support that the Clark
men were able to harmonic the con-
vention only on a resolution indorsing
Wilson as the second choice OF the
Kansas Democrats and instructing the
delegates to cast their votes for him
;Sahsn 1t shall become apparent that
Clark cannot be nominated.
Kansas and Oklahoma are in Clark
territory. They are neigheors OF MIS-
scuri. II was the boast of Clark man
ayers that Oklahoma contained 200,-
eco Missourians who would carry the
state for Clark. In the plans of the
field against Wilson, Speaker Clark
was selected as the best man to check
the Wilson movement and divide his
strength in the west The Clark vote
in both Oklahoma and Kansas repre-

opposition to Wilson. But in both

Stewart denies committing the crime
but says he is the negro wanted,
although the officers say he denied
being the one wanted at first.
For several months the Alabama Of
ficials have been searching for Stuart
and only few days ago found that he
was located in Pensacola. The sheriff
of that county came to Pensacola yes
terday and furnished the sheriff's office
with an accurate description of the ne
gro wanted, the officers doing quick
work in capturing him.
He was located in the house Of his
mother. who lives on West Strong
street.
While searching for Stuart the Of
f1cers caught another negro for whom
they have been searching for several
days. He is Robert Redding, wanted
by Sheriff Bell of Walton county. He
was located In a house in West La
Rua street and was captured only a
few minutes before Stuart was taken

Mrs. Allen inquired about the con-

ing, she remarked;
TOO bad he did not die; don't you
think so?"
The opinion was expressed here to-
day that the members of the detec-
tives' posse who are going in and out
of Hillsville daily are being used as a
blind to throw the Aliens and their
friends off their guard. It is known
that Chief Tom Feitz and at least a
dozen of his men, all of whom are ia

they believe the outlaws are travelling

hold his leadership, a few second
choice delegations are advantageous.
They may start the movement which
VIII swing the entire convention.
The only apparent advantage for
Gov. Harmon in the cooperation OF
bis supporters with those of Speaker
Clark IS the reduction of Wilson'S
initial vote by the Clark forces. Gov.
Harmon has net gained a vote by the
combine. There was no visible Har-
mcn strength IA either Oklahoma or
Kansas. in Missouri, where Speaker
Clark was the only candidate con-
sidered, Wilson is easily the second
choice Of the Democratic voters. The
sentiment for him is so strong that
even with the definite alliance he
tween the Clark and Harmon forces

would not dare go to Harmon against
wilson y the choice were between
tho two.
Speaker Clark is now the Iaador in

DECISION OF
CONSIDERABLE
IMPORTANCE
SUPREME COURT PASS
ED ON THE QUESTION OF MI
inequalities ISSUING BONDS
DENYING SOUGHT PETITION TO
VALIDATE AN ISSUE.

Tallahassee, March ia decision
q considerable Importance to all
counties and municipalities issuing
bonds was handed down today in the
case of Gadsden County VS.. State.
The county had previously voted to
issue bonds for $4,000 for the purpose
of constructing a court house in
Gadsden county and sought to validate
the bonds as provided in chapter 6272.
acts of 1911. The circuit judge denied
the petition to validate upon the
grounds that section 5698, acts of 1907,
which provides for raising funds for
such purpose by the levy Of five mill
tax precluded the method of bonding
to do so by sections 769, 1856, 1877, 791
and 7g8 of the general statutes, and
that the former repealed the latter
method.
The xupreme court here that the
county commissioners of each county
have O. choice between the two meth
DDS of raising money for erecting q
court house in the county"
Another question OF more import
anee was the matter Of the method OF
validating under chapter 6272, acts Of
1911, as 1t developed in the case that
this law does not provide that the
state can appeal in case the circuit
fudge denies the petition to validate
but this was met by the provision of
the constitution that the supreme
court has appellate jurisdiction in all
cases arising in the circuit court On
THIS point the court said: It is not
apparent that chapter 6272, acts OF
1911, which purports to validate the
action taken by the county commits
sioners for the issue OF these bonds is
not effective for the purpose designed
THE decree appealed from is re-
versed and a decree validating the
bonds as required by the statute will
be entered by the circuit Judge
