To the best of the information of
the Daily News Halifax avenue is a
public highway for 20 feet in width
1t was dedicated as a public thor
oughfare years ago by the Halifax
River Bridge & Railway company,
the company only retaining the priv
lege of building a railroad along the
same. The electric light poles are
being placed along the street pur-
suant to orders of the town council a
Daytona Beach, which body has or
dered street lights installed along
the thoroughfare. The street is un-
doubtedly too narrow and it is the
perogative of the town of Daytona
Beach to condemn sufficient abut-
ting property to make it of ample
width for the heavy traffic which
passes over it. Until last year. the
street was maintained by the bridge
company but the Daily News under
stands the company has now relegat-
ed this duty to the town authorities.
Halifax avenue, as now travelled, is
wider than originally plated but
the additional width is still the prop
erty of the abutting owners Unless
the owners would willingly relinquish
this land the only remedy of the
town council to widen the s. street
would be condemnation PROCEEDINGS. h.

did not hear General DUPONT cast any

Judges Of our State or of three of them

He was talking Of Judges generally and
said that some judges are sometimes
Influenced by public opinion. but did not
say our Delaware judges were.

merchant present at the conference who
denied that General dupont had made
any attack upon the Delaware judiciary

said about the judges by General du-

grant franchises, make contracts, y
point an army OF officers n em-
ployes. and expend more than three
millions OF dollars without the checks
and balances deemed necessary to
secure honest administrations Such
a body could easily build up a per-
sonal following which would perpetu-
ate their power.
TIE creation OF s. Board OF Admin
istration Is not only correct In the
DRY. but commends itself as n correct
business method. Nearly all large
business corporations. especially rail-
roads, in addition tn their stockhold-
ers and directors. now have an nd
lninistrative or executive committee.
On the 9Th day OF November mex
the people Of Richmond will elect
from the city at large five members
OF this Administrative Board, who
will enter upon the discharge of their
duties on January 1, 1913. These
members will be elected for four
years, except the first who will hold
o.hce-two for two years, two for

be determined by lot, They will re-

In other words, 1t will discharge all
executive functions now devolving
upon the several committees OF the
City Council.
In conclusion I will express that
which is in the minds Of all thought
