CHTCAGO, Aug. T.-Willie Ritchie
~ need not be wall flower 1t is
not necessary that he should wear out
his stout fighting heart pining for
some one to punch him in the nose.
Not so. We have right here in Chi
cago today, an Irish terrier from Bos-
ton, known to fame as Eddie Murphy,
who is willing to mingle with Willie at
any old weight, morning, noon or night
for money, marbles or chalk, as the
school kids say.
Murphy is going east tomorrow for
couple of tough fights at tho Hub
But he came in with Manager Mcbride
tonight Just TO saw that there were two
men he simply itched to fight-Packey
Mcfarland first and Willie Ritchio
next. He will take Ritchie first if he
can't get Packcy, however, and let
Willie name the time for weighing and
the poundage. We guess thst's fair
enough.
The Boston bulldog, as Murphy was
nieknamed here before his fight with
Mcfarland in February, will be back
this way in October. But before he
comes he will 90 through two desperate

"When such men, in their eager
desire to preserve their business

EvRN the Everv Evening OF Wi.

EVEN the Every Evening of Viii
mington, a radical Democratic pa
per, cannot condone the narrow
ideas which actuated the members
of the Kent County Levy Court,
and those who direct their actions,
as to making any reform in the road
system now under their control.
Here is the comment of that paper
upon their action;
"The Kent county Levy Court
could not resist the temptation to
seek political capital by appointing
nearly 200 petty road overseers for
that county, Notwithstanding the
folly of the practice was challenged
and the court urged to inaugurate a
reform by reducing the number to
one from each district. tits safe to
assert that political work, rather
than road work, will be expected of
this little horde of tax spenders. "
Milford chronicle., 1912-03-29

a, a JUST why the idea prevails in
or some parts of the State, that all
az al work has ceased on the new boule-
fu ward, there seems to be no we'll de-
II fined reason, but it has probably
M grown out of the fact that several
" lawyers who opposed the gift Of the
ar road to the State by General dupont,
land few property holders who OBJ
ject to the boulevard passing
through their lands, have been form
ulating cases to be taken into the
1 courts, with the object of obstluct-
cling, and possibly preventing the
Nbuilding of the great highway
Delaware. As a matter of
fact, the work is going forward as
Z fast as possible, and when the wealth
IA er is suitable for more rapid work,
]. it will be rushed. One of the local
l. papers at Georgetown says Of this
= enterprise ia its issue of last week
E Quite large number Of men are

Editorial writer in the Wilmington
tEvery Evening until the following
appeared last Friday, which was a
svery just comment upon the devel-
opments during the proceedings OF
rthe Maryland Legislature, aud a
fair statement of the liquor dealers
in their public attitude in the liquor
traffic. The comments are as fol-
lows:
Proceedings attendant upon the
consideration, in the Maryland
House of Delegates, at Annapolis,
of the Statewide Local Option bill,
Wednesday night, were enlivened
by charge OF attempted bribery.
Delegate Smallwood said he had
been approached by an agent of the
liquor interests and offered So, 500
If he would vote against the meas
ure. The agent denied that he had
spoken a word 10 the member. The
House ordered an investigation.
"Thecircumstauces attending the
affair are such as to inspire belief in
the truth Of the accusation, and
also, the alleged procedure is in line
with the policy of too many men
connected with the liquor business
when called upon to resist adverse
Legislation. They are too apt to do
things without warrant in law or
reason, and thereby create a hostile
sentiment which would not have
Appeared had they not acted in such
a manner.
Also, it is too frequently the
case, when legislation of this kind
is pending, that those engaged in
the liquor business assume that
and their personal profit
are the only considerations at stake.
They do not take into consideration
that many persons favor the regu-
lation of the sale Of liquor by license
without regard to the business itself
