The above is the title to an
editorial which appeared in the
CourierJournal last week, and the
Editor took occasion 10 roast the
Corbin Times for some mention
it had given the knoxville Senti-
mel. l. is really amusing how
"Marsc Henry tries to make
the people believe that those of
US who live in the mountains are
of that class who would not
even come up to the standard Of
those of darkest Africa.

Shows FIGURES REPORTED
BY ENGINEER INCORRECT

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
WASHINGTON. D. c., April 5.-In
the House of Representatives yester-
day Representative Frear, of Wiscon-
sir. who has been opposing certain
portions Of the Rivers and Harbors
bin now under consideration made
an attack on the items carried in the
bill for the maintenance OF the gov
ernment work on Wilmington harbor
as well as on the Lewes and Reho-
both canal project which connects
Rehoboth bay with Delaware bay
near Lewes. To both of these at
tacRs Representative Thomas w.
Miller. OF Delaware, replied. and re-
ceived applause especially for his de-
Tense OF the Wilmington harbor pro-
icct which Mr.. Frear claimed showed
lack of cooperation by the city Of
Wilmington.
A question came up last June as TO
whether the city of Wilmington had
properly lived up TO the Act of the
General Assembly passed in 1901
which provided that the city should
pay an amount equal to ten per cent.
OF the money appropriated by the
government from time to time to-
ward river and harbor work at Will
mington. Representative Miller ap-
peared before City Council last June,
following a letter written by Major
Johnston, United States Engineer, to
City Council calling attention to the
city's alleged shortage in the amount

done at that time by Council. In
January OF this year when Represen-
tative Miller appeared before the
Rivers and Harbors Committee dur
ing the hearings on Delaware pro-
jects the same question as TO VIII
mington's lack OF cooperation was
brought forward. In response TO a
letter from Representative Miller
City Council voted $4,000 on ac-
count, which was turned over to the
district engineer officer. The report
OF the chief Of engineers OF the Wal
Department as we'll as the Commit
tee on Rivers and Harbors is not fair
TO the city OF Wilmington in that the
city's contention is not set forth
which is that the cost OF the gov

throughout the. State OF Delaware as
well as in certain parts OF New Jer-

cess Of $500. the law providing that in
cases where the price exceeds $500,
bids shall be advertised for and con-
tracts awarded.
After the jury had been out for one

was sent TO the court, requesting that
the charge be read to them again. The
jurors were. brought back to the court
room and the charge re-read to them.
