Commissioners Delay Action
on Sixteenth St. Plans.
Protests BY Citizens

The plan Of M. %. Eldridge,
Director Of Traffic, to erect 101
traffic lights on Sixteenth street
from H street to Irving street
has struck q snag.
The Commissioners have ap-
proved the purchase Of the lights
but refuse to D. K. Eldridges
plan TO begin installation d them
Immediately on Sixteenth street:
Despite reports to the contrary,
the location Of these lights has
not been definitely settled and Il
is probable that some street other
than Sixteenth win Be selected.
Colonel MoIIer Explains
Eldridge forwarded to cornnals
sioner Fredericlk AZ fleming yes.
terday the contract for purchase
OF the lights and also plans for
erection Of the lights on Sixteenth
street.
Fenning approved and brought
them before the Board Of District
Commissioners
Colonel q. Moller. Assistant
traffic director, was called before
the board to explain Eldddge's
recommendation.
He was asked whether the pur-
chase OF lights obligated the Com
rnissioners to put them on Sixteenth
street.
MoIIer replied it would not. but
pointed out that plans for the in
stallation on Sixteenth street had
already been drawn
Fenning is reported to have de-
cIared he was ready to o. k. the
erection. on Sixteenth street. hut
Commissioners Cuno H. Rudolph
and j. Franklin Bell made it clear
they were not.
Accordingly the only action taken
was the awarding of the contract.
with the light location left in the
cir
Delay Is Result.
The action Of the Commissioners
upset Eldridge's elaborate plans.
The traffic director expected to
begin installation IN few days
and have the lights in operation
within six weeks.
The Commissioners will not again
look up the location of traffic
lights until their meeting next week.
There is possibility that action
may be postponed for several
weeks because Commissioner Fen
ming is planning to leave the Dis
trict building today on a ten-day
vacation.
Commissioner Rudolph has re-
ceived numerous complaints about
the experimenting with traffic
lights on Sixteenth street
Prominent residents along the high
way declare it will destroy the
beauty of the section. They urge
the scheme be tried elsewhere.
Likewise. Commissioner Bell is
reported the recipient of objections
to the plans.
The opposition voiced to Rudolph
and Bell resulted in holding up
action yesterday.

KENT COUNTY INDEBTEDNESS

We again call the attention of the tax pay
ers 20 the published report of the County
Comptroller. This report shows in detail the
condition of our County finances and should
be of interest to all citizens. A year ago we
directed attention to certain phases of the
County Comptroler's report and suggested
that since the Levy Court was the responsible
body for the expenditures of the peoples
money, that they should employ their best eff
fort in outstanding this money, and appro-
pirate it only along lines of strictest economy,
having due regard for proper administration
of County affairs. Since the November Elec-
ton has biven US an entirely new Levy Court,
respectfully repeat our suggestions of
year ago. lest perchance a close scrutiny Of
the Comptrollers report may reveal oppOr-
tunities for vet further economies in harmony
not only with the demand, but the trend of
administration, both State and National.
We, especially desire to call attention to the
bonded Indebtedness of the County now to-
falling nearly two millions of dollars, which
Indebtedness practically represents our good
roads. How much more can be added to this
total without making it burdensome to our
tax payers? Yet how far short are we in
our supply of good roads for every section Of
| the county. Now since the State receives the
income from automobile license and from the
| tax on gasoline, we strongly recommend that
the State take over, and place under the care
/ of the State Highway Department, all roads,
/ firmly believing that by this pan we will get
much better roads, with little additional cost.
/ The Legislature is now in session, and If adj
! visable, can enact such legislation as shall
| accomplish this end. Under the care of the
| State Highway Department. the change of the
| political complexion of our Levy Courts would
not change road supervisors. as is now
| the case, but instead. would give US continu-
| GUS expert supervision of all roads. i'm
| proved as well as unimproved. Many of our
| dirt roads not bearing heavy traffic could
under skilled treatment. and the use. perhaps
| of Stag or other cheap material, be greatly
| improved at small cost We. therefore. rec.

| ties of the burden.
We wish to commend Mr.. Meredith for hii
excellent report. and for his fidelity to tn,
trust reposed in him during hic term of office

In interesting bit of information re-

college is derived from an edition of
the Columbian Sentinel, weekly news
paper, printed in Boston, September II,
1896. 1t states that when George Wash

States Harvard college was supporting
itself partly by grand lotteries, with a
capital prize Of $4,000 Tickets were
sold for 20 cents, says the Boston

The fOur-page papers of that day,
with advertisements confined largely to
auction sales, contained much material
in brief. There were no large head
lines and news from Europe, brought
