NOMINATION OF
ASHFORD Under
senate Fight
Bench Vacancies Will Not Be
Filled Until New Opposition
Is Cleared Away
Jas. II. Love.

A fight made in the senate against
the confirmation of G.. w. Ashford as
first Judge of the iirst circuit court
is also holding up the confirmation OF
W. s.. Edings, named to the Maui
bench vacancy, according to news
from Washington. --.
The man or men behind the fight
and the details OF opposition are I'M
known. One conjecture made this
morning was that former Governor
Frear may have entered some objec
tion to Attorney Ashford's elevation
tS the bench. 1t IS said that Mr.. Frear
Mas never agreed with the proposal
that Ashford be made a Judge.
The news of the opposition to Ash
ford came in a letter to an unnamed
local man. The man is a friend OF
Palmer p. Woods, but Mr.. Woods is
not at liberty to divulge his name. The
fight against Ashford was not thought
to be very serious one, but 1t ap.
pears to have been involved in some
MISUNDERSTANDING IN the Senate and
finally has turned out forcible enough
to hold up Senate action on President
Wilson's appointee. There is said to
be no opposition to the appointment
of Judge Edings, but pending the set.
Element of the Ashford appointment,
the Maui position will not be settled
. 1t was predicted this morning that
Ashford will be confirmed as soon as
the Senate can get down to business
in the next few days.

URGES DREDGING

manufacturers Il the stream was
deepened and the marshes filled.
That part OF the Brandywine en-
braced in the limits named. could be
both widened and deepened and the
expansion possibilities thus afforded
would unquestionably be an irresisti-
bic attraction for site hunters.
Those who are in a position TO
know are unanimous in the express
sion of a belief that Congress would
allow an appropriation for the Bran
| dywino once this stream should be
i dredged out the big floods and fresh
cts which come down from its eXpan-
sive water shed would keep the chan
mel washed out IL would not be diff
ficult to make that portion of tho
Brandywine east and south of the
/ Pennsylvania r. r. bridge as good OF
better than that portion OF the Chris
tiana above the mouth of the Brandy
wine and the dredgings would serve
\ the excellent purpose of filling up the
marshes as the work progressed

bridge on the Brandywinc there is sls'
much room for improvement. There are
several extensive plants here which now
use water transportation and there b
room for others. AZ this time the Bran
dywne rs only possible for shallow
draft barges and motor boats. An in

thus help boost Wilmington.
