nounced today that he will support

the Security Trust and Safe Deposit
Company, Of Wilmington. Del, for the
govornorship of Porto Rico, should
Mr.. Rossell be willing TO accept
the place" Though Mr.. Salisbury
did not say so, his promise of support
virtually means that he will urge the
appointment Of Mr.. Rossell.
The Wilmington banker was a
strong supporter of the junior sena-
tor from Delaware in his campaign.
Il is likely that Mr.. Rosscll will not
be the only candidate for 80 import
ant a post, however. other United
States Senators have their eyes ON
the place, and Senator Salisbury will
have to make a hard fight to secure q
for the Delaware banker. The COVER
norship OF Porto Rico is now held by
George r. Cotton, an appointee OF
President Taft The term is for -four
years and Governor Colton's term ex.
pires on December 16 next. II Il
therefore, possible to make the ap.
pointment as late as the first part
OF the session which convenes in
December. but IL is unlikely that il
will be left until that time. The place

GEORGETOWN, Del, April 1S.-
While the Office of the Milford
Chronicle may boast or being the
greatest marriage bureau in Sussex
county for its employees, it has a
close second in the Office of the Sus-
sex Republican, of this town, edited
by Colonel Robert G. Houston. With
in the last few months Cupid's darts
have found lodgment in the hearts Of
three young women in that office,
and it seems to be a difficult
proposition for the Office to retain a
girl in the composing department
very long.
The first to go the matrimonial
road was Mrs. Albert King, formerly
Miss Lulu Green, followed within a
few months by Mrs. Arthur Cham
bers nee Miss Sadie Cramfeld. The
last to join the nuptial band is Miss
Esther Coulter daughter of Thomas
Coulter, formerly Of Wilmington. who
on Monday was married TO William
Bryan, Of Centreville, Md.
The Office find itself without any
girl "type-stickers" at this time and

Cole, for fishing for shad in violation
of New Jersey law Their nets and
boat were conhscated, as is proyid-
ed in the act as part of the penalty
for such violation. The Governor OF
Delaware wrote the Governor of New
Jersey that the Delawareans were
within their rights aud would be pro-
tected. Furthermore. the Delaware
Legislature set up indignant protest
with resolution declaring that il
was part OF the purpose Of New Jcr-
sey to violate the rights Of the citi-
zens Of the sovereign States and
other burning words to the same ef-
feet
Governor FieIder's Letter.
After telling of the arrest of the
fishermen within Jersey waters ana
their admission that they were violat-
ing the Jersey law. although ignOr-
ant of H.. Governor Fiolder's letter
calls attention to the compact be-
tween New Jersey and Delaware,
which was ratified by Congress in
/ 1905. BY the terms OF that compact
! both States agreed to appoint com
missioncrs TO draft uniform laws to
regulate fishing in the Delaware
River and bay, and pledged them
selves TO enact the laws recommends
ed. The letter then continues
Commissioners we're appointed by
this State and by Delaware, in ac-
cordance with this compact, and they
recommended a BILL which passed
the New Jersey Legislature in 1907,
but failed of passage without substan-
/ tial amendments in the Delaware
Legislature.
1T is apparent that the difficulties
arising out of the enforcement of the
fishing regulations in the Delaware
River are due to this failure on the
part of Delaware 10 concur in the
! bill recommended by the joint COM
! mission. In this situation the State
of New Jersey has no choice but 10
enforce its laws within the territory
claimed by il.
Permit me to urge upon you the
Importance of the enactment of such
concurrent fishing regulations govern
| ing the Delaware River and bay be-
/ tween this State and Delaware, in
order that any future friction of this
character may be avoided.
There seems TO be no doubt what
ever that the fishermen above men,
toned were guilty of violating our
law within our jurisdiction, and that
their arrest was, therefore, fully JUS
| tilted. but. being desirous of comply
ing with your request, ! have asked
! the Fish and Game Commission to
release their boat and net.
1T is my duty, however, to state
that. pending the enactment of the
concurrent legislation referred to.
shall feel compelled TO enforce our
laws. and ] hope no citizens of Della
ware will be guilty of violating the
regulations of this State. as il win
he the duty Of the Board OF Fish ana
Game Commissioners of this State to
strictly enforce the law i'm all future
eases which may come TO its atten.

AN EXCEPTIONAL EXHIBIT OF
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS

Mr.. w. H. McVey of Wellborn, has
had on exhibition in one of the show
windows of the Myers Hardware Co.
farm exhibit that would do credit to
any country where the season had
been most favorable, and when we con-
slider the very unfavorable seasons in
which these exhibits had to grow and
mature, it is nothing short of wonder
full. This exhibit consisted mostly of
different varieties of corn and cotton.
The corn was as fine as ever was seen
in this county. Ten ears of his "gourd
seed" variety weighed with the
shuck off, eleven and three quarters
pounds, which would require about IS
ears TO make a bushel and made about
so bushels to the acre on a field of
eight acres, but of course the land was
good Brazos bottom land. 1t was
planted in wide rows and cultivated
flat. The cotton was also cultivated
according to demonstration method.
The land was broken deeply in winter
and while the land was very poor, it
made good cotton for a dry year. This
crop was worked by two Boys less than
16 years DID, which is a great credit
to them as we'll as to the demonstra-
ton methods, which they followed all
the way through.
