6,136,425 Pounds Sold
Over Local Breaks

The Richmond tobacco market has
sold including Friday sales $780, ,425
pounds according to weekly report
submitted by Secretary J.'P. Smith Of
the Board of Trade. The sales during
the past week were light but the aver
age per pound was some and baskets
sold up as high as $1.21 per pound.
The market closed strong Friday with
prices higher on some grades than the
closing sales last week. With the
splendid season of the past few days
the remainder of the crop that was
still hanging in the barns will no
doubt be taken down and will be strip
ped and sold within thenext two
weeks. There are a number of large
crops to be sold yet which means q
lot more money yet to be paid out by
the local warehousemen. No reflections
were noted during the past week
which is in itself proof of the way
it is selling.

Methodist Church Crowded
For the Jett Lecture

The people of Richmond turned out
in large numbers to hear the much
talked-of Curtis Jett, give a lecture
on "Saved by Grace" which was de-
livered at the Methodist church Fri
day evening. His hearers wer de-
lighted with the words which flowed
forth from a man who has seen the
worst side of life, and is now one saw
ed by grace.
He told story Of his saving boy
from drowning when he was a young
man, and was in bathing with his fell
lows, which was very impressive. He
also. spoke Of his conversion and his
work among the prisoners at Frank
fort, stating that he helped hundreds
Of them to find the Saviour. He said
that he looked with shame upon his
past but it was through ignorance that
he had done as he had. He has been
converted for eleven years and will
enter the ministry as an evangelist
and spend the remainder of his life in
helping others to see the light
He was very outspoken against the
pool room and bootlegers Of Richmond
and was very intolerant against all
evil doers.
He has published book Of 80 pages
Of his life entitled "From Prison Il
Pulpit" His lecture throughout show.
ed that his conversion was genuine
and that his whole thought now is t.
do good in atonement for his past.
These lectures are being given il
order to raise funds to pay off ;
church debt, and with the crowds hk'
the one last evening, they will 500,

THE CITY OF WILMINGTON Jared
very well at the hands of the last ses-
sion of the Legislature, and in addi
tion the new school code will be of
permanent financial help to her pub
lie schools. Under the new school
laws Wilmington will share in the
State School funds on basis of pupils
enrolled in her public schools, and on
this basis of apportionment will get
approximately sixty thousand dollars
per year more than under the old
school laws. At one time it was
thought that the new school code
would not become law and the mem
bers OF the Legislature from Whining
ton pushed thru a law which would
give to Wilmington under the old laws
an equal share on the basis of number
of teachers employed, which was only
fair, and the Legislature voted for and
passed the law to do justice to the
City of Wilmington schools. After
the new school code finally became a
law so far as the Legislature could
complete it, the special act referred
to above was unnecessary, because
the object desired was obtained thru
the new school laws. and therefore
the special act should not be signed
by Governor Townsend. The new
school laws will be printed in month
and generally distributed, and when
this is done the people will become
familiar with its purposes and realize
that while it is a radical change. yet
in it there are possibilities for great
improvement over the old school sys-
TEN. The Sunday Star of Wilmington
very aptly remarked in local article
about the new laws last Sunday:
"Those interested in good schools
believe that school conditions will be
considerably improved under the new
code Hereafter, it will be possible to
employ teachers only on their merit
as teachers, and this, it is claimed,
will in some instances break up the
old plan of teachers being employed
in some instances because they might
be relatives of some influential citizen
or relatives of some of the school
officials. 1t is declared by the oppon-
ents of the new law that this never
resulted in Delaware getting inferior
teachers, but at the same time this
might have resulted"
What the above paragraph refers to
has happened repeatedly in the schools
of Kent and Sussex counties, and it
is one of the weak points of the old
law now gone.

THE TOWN OF SMYRNA at a
special election held last week voted
23OO to 62 to authorize and direct her
Town Council to provide an all-day
electric light and power current. Good
for Smyrna, and thanks to the per-
sistance of the Smyrna Times for its
effort to focus the attention of Smyrna
citizens to the need of an all-day cleo
trio service in a town of so great i'm
portance as Smyrna. Milford is the
only town in Delaware which is COM
PEELED to grovel in inconvenience and
gloom on cloudy and dark days, be-
cause of no electric service during
the day period. This is due simply
to the comatose condition of the Light
and Water Commission, which oper-
ates the light and water department
of Milford The people have long
clamored for it, but they have always
been refused. There are three new
laws which will control the situation
for Milford. Two will permit the
Light and Water Commission to awake
and act; the other will permit the
people to sell the plant to the highest
bidder and pay off the bonded indebt-
edness of Milford, while a private
company gives the service the people
want. This club over the heads of
the men dominating the policies of the
Milford Light and Water Commission
may bring them to a realizing sense
of what the people want. Who owns
the Light and Water System of Mil
ford? Why, the PEOPLE. What will
be done in Milford? Watch the situa-
ton develop.

covERNoR sPRoUL Of Pennsyi.

GOVERNOR sPROUL of Pennsyl-
vania has, after an investigation OF
the proposed increase in the price OF
anthracite coal, stated that in his
Judgment the increase was justifiable.
He bases his opinion on the fact that
the increased cost of labor, together
with the greatly increased royalties
which the owners of mining lands are
compelling the operators to pay, have
made it necessary that the mining
companies charge more for their
product, if they are to produce coal at
a profit. He also gives another reason
for his belief: the increased freight
rates put in force by the railroad ad-
ministration. The governor suggests
in his statement that municipality own
ed fuel markets be established. This
suggestion is one. that should be in
vestlgated thoroughly by the people
not only of Pennsylvania, but OF other
States. Delaware has suffered along
with the rest in regard TO the increased
cost of fuel, and if municipality owned
coal yards will aid in the reduction
of the cost of this much needed com
modify, now is the time to start such
yards. Where the experiment has been
tried in New Jersey such markets
have proven to be of much benefit to
the citizens, and they are more than
enthusiastic in their opinion of the
plan. Milford would be an ideal place
at which to try the experiment.

WHEN THE NEW State Board Of
Education is appointed, and the var
ious County School Commissioners are
named for the ensuing year to serve
until the annual school elections in
1920, at which time the people by
direct vote select the men to direct the
county schools outside the towns Of
the first-class, the work of organization
Of the new school machinery will
start to function. The members of
the various County School Commits
sions will receive ten dollars per day
and actual expenses for their services
in the school work, but that is limited
to one day each month so far as the
salary is considered, so there will be
no rush of incompetent men for these
positions because of the money COM
ing to the official. Not college grad
yates, but practical business men, with
good common sense, should be the
men to be made County School Com
missioners, and as there are only three
to be chosen in each county the peo-
pie must watch as to whom the men
or women are who are nominated for
the jobs. Political opinion should
not be taken into consideration, but
qualifications be made the standard.

ARE THE POLITICAL PoTs ready

ARE THE POLITICAL POTS ready
for boiling? Are the politicians TAX
ing any interest in the campaign which
will open early in 1920? Well, yes.
Most decidedly yes. Senator WOlcott
is preparing the way for harmony
with the faction of the Democratic
Party which followed the late Sena-
tor Salisbury, and the Democratic
correspondents from Dover and other
points in lower Delaware are sounding
the local efforts to bring happiness to
the Democratic Party generally, and
this will continue in greater volume
from now on. In the Republican
camps there is a disposition to take
account of stock since the Legislature
adjourned, and this is especially true
Of Kent county. There will be far
more interest taken in the next cam
paign than there has been in the past
four campaigns. There will be an
awakening of the people and an effort
70 Teorganize upon a sound basis which
will hold the interest of the people to
not only local, but State and National
issues.
