Had the Railroad Company in build
ing their road been far-sighted and
not given in to the influence or domin-
alton of any one man or clique, Smyr-
ma and Clayton would have been one
large town, probably the largest south
of Wilmington and the Railroad Com
pany would have been saved thousands
of dollars for operating and waintain-
ing the Smyrna Branch Railway.
However, the placing of the blame
for conditions as they exist is mat
ter that belongs to a past generation
Smyrna, despite such, has grown in
size and Importance and with a pro-
gressiveness that demands the best
consideration of the Railroad Com
pany, whether it is on branch rail
way or not. What the people OF
Smyrna want is full and complete ser
vice.

The Wilmington Every Evening
gives praise and support to Smyrna
when it says: "The people of Smyrna,
in the upper part of Kent county, are
in a state of agitation over the cur
tailment of their railroad service by
the removal of two daily trains. They
insist that these two trains should be
restored. That Smyrna needs good
railroad service will not be denied. 1t
is one of the most compact and city
looking towns in the state. It's mu-
nicipal boundaries are thoroughly built
up. Also, with population approx
imating $500, and a good business, it
is entitled to consideration. No Won
der, therefore, the people are up in
arms against the edict Of the railroad
administration that deprives them of
two trains a day, trains which they
believe they need and are entitled to-"
The Every Evening follows this
fulsOme praise with a little "knock for
Smyrna by stating its landowners
years ago, when the railroad was built,
drove the enterprise away by being
$50 extOrtiOnate in their demands"
The files of the Times of the early
SOS make interesting reading on this
point and shows that the citizens really
wanted the railroad and acceded to
every demand in raising subscriptions
asked for. There may have been some
property owners who wanted more for
their land than the Railroad Company
thought it was worth but this could
have been easily overcome had the
Company really wanted to come to
Smyrna. Older citizens of Smyrna,
who remember the hard fight of our
business men to bring the railroad to
Smyrna, blame the whole thing at
that time over a jealousy existing be-
tween Dover and Smyrna (then Smyr-
ma was larger than DOver) and
say that certain jurist, now deceased,
an influential member of the Board of
Directors of the Railroad Company,
had more to do with shutting Smyrna
out than any disgruntled landowner,
if there really was any.
Quite true as the Every Evening
says: ''the Railroad Company, simply
ignored Smyrna and ran their road on
almost a straight line from Townsend
to Dover, making a most important
station at Clayton. This movement
built up Clayton, but left Smyrna in
the lurch. After awhile Smyrna
people found they were dependent up
on railroad communication, and the
only way they could get it was by the
construction of a branch road between
Smyrna and Clayton, mile distant.
And so it was that Smyrna became a

Smyrna electric light plant has been
visited by representatives of the big
electric companies the past week and
even if day current were not cOnsid-
cred at all, it has been demonstrated
that the plant needs rehabilitatingn
and the system long since out of date
and leaky, put in a good state of re
pair. 1t has been found that even a
new pump is necessary at the water
works aside from engine and dynamos.
Since it is important that Smyrna
spend several thousand dollars to re
new the plant, the opportunity is ripe
to modernize and standardize its cleo
trio system and add on day current to
help swell the revenue. The time was
never better for day current than now.
Let's have a modern and up-to-date
electric light plant, as we'll as water
works.
Smyrna times., 1919-02-05

The town of Clayton has an excel
lent opportunity now to get electric
current and probably day current too
by making deal with the Town of
Smyrna. That Smyrna will go ahead
and renew its power plant, is practi-
cally settled. If Clayton wants cleo
trio lights, the opportunity to get con-
tinuous current from Smyrna is right
at her door. We would suggest that
a special committee be appointed by
the Town Council of each town, to
meet in conference and arrive at an
early decision. 1t is important for
Smyrna Town Council to know the
size of the equipment needed before
any definite bidding can be done.

HUDDLESTON SPEAKS
FOR SHERWOOD AMENDMENT

Washington, November 1.-fSpeciaL)
Representative lHuddleston of the JEFF
ferson county district, supported the
Sherwood amendment TO the Dill au :
thorizing the Secretary of War to lend
army rifles to posts of the American
Legion. The Sherwood amendment
would have authorized the Secretary OF
War to lend rifles to other organlza-
tions of discharged soldiers, sailors or
marines.
DESPITE Mr.. Huddlestons support, the
amendment was beaten. These words
are included in Mr.. Huddlestons
speech of support: 1.-THE American
Legion is perhaps the largest orsani-
zation of former soldiers, but there
are a number of soldiers orEahi~A-
tions and as far as l know they are
all worthy and equally worthy. Ihere
is the private soldiers and sailors
legions: also the world war veterans.
Down in the south, it is said that there
is a separate colored soldiers organi-
zation; but there are a great many
posts of the American Legion with
exclusive colored members. There are
said to be three of these negro posts
in Washington"
Mr.. Bee of Texas later answering MT
Huddleston's inquiry, as to why sep
arate bill was necessary said: Be
cause under the amendment of the gen
tleman from Ohio, Mr.. Sherwood, IL
would not include the private soldiers
organization he is talking about, OF
which I am not afraid. But it would
include classes in this country to
whom it might be dangerous for our
peace and safety to have guns turned
over. 1t ought not to be necessary for
me to say any more"
When the vote on the amendment was
called. the chair announced the noes
appear to have it." On a division de-
manded by Mr.. Huddleston, there were
16 ayes; 119 noes.
The Bee suggestion caused the defeat
of the amendment it is believed.
