SEPARATION FROM THE GREAT
COLElIEN DU POINT ROAD?
BY John S. Hamilton in Sunday Star

BY John S. Hamilton in Sunday Star
Now that the Coleman du Pont
road belongs to the State of Della
ware we should see to it that we re-
celve from it all the benefits which
it urges and suggests.
II 1t is to be a mere highway. a
| convenience for service and a maker
OF profits and business, that would
be a tribute and a recompense for
the donor perhaps, but that would
not be enough. That would not ans
Wer the question which must have
been in the mind of him who spent
his thought and labor, money and
energy in this great accomplish
ment.
IL was an amazing thing when we
first heard about the possibility of
the du Pont road. It was nearly un-
believable; but here it is.
What has it done for us; and what |
is it going to do for us in the fu-
ture?
Has it taught us that roads can
be built and it pays to build them?
Are we learning that good roads
increase values and that the cost of
building road is an investment and
not an expense?
Are we beginning to understand
that dividends do not always come in
The mail and are not always receiv-
ed by way Of coupons clipped off
with scissors?
Has the building of the du Pont
road with it's wonderful reflection of
md increasing delivery of benefits
aught us that it pays to build roads? '
Are we beginning to understand that
will pay and pay and pay for the I
Deople of the State to collect money {
nd to build more and more roads? I
There were some few people at
east who hailed the announcement S
f the du Pont boulevard's coming S
S a wonderful step forward in the C
calm of real democracy. These peo- I
lie understood something about what q
ne completed project would cost
nd something about the energy and n
and the constructive o
bility which would be found neces- W
Try to complete the undertaking. w
It was thought that all the trouble o,
I'd all the expense and all the diff
llty would be compensated for by
e fact that the building Of the road in
ould be a school, teaching demo- If

/ WHEN PROSECUTORS OF INDIVIDUALS
who commit crimes especially the lower courts
such as the Justice of the Peace and deputy at
torney generals, rigidly enforce the charges of
accessory after the act" upon those who assist
the main criminal to escape, or harbor and pre-
vent the law officers from making the arrest of
an individual, then will there be a more certain
punishment for crime in Delaware. The man or
woman who aids the thief, or murderer to es-
cape justice either by transporting, feeding,
harboring during the day or night, is equally
guilty in the eyes of the law as the original re-
spOnsible for the offense against the laws, and
must be arrested for giving such aid and be
made to answer and receive punishment En-
force this part of the law in every case, and the
cases where the criminal escapes arrest will be
few; for the foolish sympathy that seems to af-
feet so many persons after a crime has shocked
the public mind, will not go to the extent of
laying themselves liable to arrest and punish
ment as an accessory after the fact, with all it's
to rest on their own shoulders
as well as that of the murderer. Enforce the |
law and there will be no opportunity for a mur-
1erer to escape the penalty such as we have
Just experienced in the Christensen murder last
month Milford. There is plenty of law to
meet every case, if the prosecuting heads charg-
ID with protecting the public from crime will go

publican Party will endorse fully and success
fully the denomination of Morris Harrington. of
Kent county, for the State Authorship for an
other two years.
1t is well known that all men who are worth
while have either open enemies, or there are
envious individuals, who are willing to sacri-
flee the welfare of the state or nation, so that
their personal animOsity may be pleased. It is
probable and almost certainty that the men
nominated by the Republican Party by the State
Convention at Dover last week, have both secret
and open enemies, but the great body of the
people of Delaware will support the ticket 10y
ally and so win a splendid victory.
Delaware can not afford to not continue the
era of progress which has opened in the past
ten years. for her most important interests. Our
roads are assets bringing in a cash revenue to
all the people, instead of liabilities Our schools
are just starting to show the results of wise
expenditure of money in public school educa-
ton, instead of the wasteful system of the past
forty years which it supplanted. Our farm lands
have advanced and nearly doubled in value un-

When the county nominations are made by the |
Republicans of Delaware, there will be a clean
cut issue presented to the people, which directly
affect their interests The membership of the |
several levy courts are very important and es-
sential to the folks at home. The court house
offices are important, in that each should be

his is up to the people themselves at their ,
