BEAT w. f. CUMMINS, LEIPSIC
One Brother Draws Revolver and

Representative w. F. Cummins,
an oysterman of Leipsic, was beat
en- in that town Sunday night when
he ordered two brothers away
from his boat. During the evening
Cummins noticed Henry Swiggett
and Mark Swiggett, brothers, lott
ering around his boat. Earlier he
suspected that some one had tried
to sell liquor to members of his
oyster boat crew and going to the
landing, he ordered the men away.
1t is alleged that Henry Swiggett
drew a revolver and while he kept
away a number of persons who
were in the vicinity, his brother
Mark Swiggett is alleged to have
attacked and beaten Cummins. Mr..
Cummins' condition as a result of
the beating was such that he was
unable to go out with his boat to
dredge oysters Monday morning.
Henry Swiggett was arrested by
Lieutenant Ingram and Private
King of the state highway police
and is in Dover Jail awaiting a
hearing. Mark Swiggett who Is
alleged to have made the attack
on Cumrnins has not been found.
Mr.. Cummins has served in the
House of Representatives two
terms in 1913 and the past session.

TOWN COUNCIL ACCEPTS BID
FOR SHORE ELECTRIC SERVICE
CONTRACT CON
SUNIATED WITH SHORE co.
Lower Rate for Current at Whole
sale. is Effective as of May the
1st and Continues to March 1885

At another called meeting of
Smyrna Town Council held last
Friday evening President George
R. Stevenson and Council COM
pleted and put into effect a
new deal with the Eastern Shore
Public Service Company which be-
comes effective as of May 1st. j.
o. O'Connell, vice-president of the
Eastern Shore Public Service Com
pany of Salisbury, Md, and the
company's attorney, F. w. C.Webb,
Esq, also of Salisbury, motored up
to meet with Smyrna Town Coun-
Gil and their attorney c. L. Har-
monson, Esq. The whole evening
was spent in going over the con-
tract and getting more thorough
understanding as to reductions OBJ
tainable in buying current in
Blocks. Figured down, Council
men, it is said, find that Smyrna
will get it's current about two cents
per killowat net with possibility
of lowering this figure if business
grows to the extent of earning
further reductions. Under the
agreement Smyrna will be able, it
is said, to continue to supply Clay
ton so far as the Eastern Shore
Public Service Company is con-
cerned. Though Clayton's contract
with Smyrna has until March, next
year, to run, they like Smyrna, will
also get an immediate reduction in
rates. After all the points at issue
had been satisfactorily explained
and both Smyrna Town Council
and the Eastern Shore Public Ser
vice Company had come to an
agreement, Council voted unanim
ously to accept it and President
George r. Stevenson and Secretary
S. Creadick Ennis put their sigma
lures to the agreement. This ends
any further discussion on the sub
ject until March 1885, and sets at
rest any talk of Smyrna's electric
light plant being reconditioned and
operated by the installation of
larger turbine units with Diesel oil
engines. With the proposition
made and accepted, Smyrna can
obtain its current cheaper than it
could manufacture it and Council
is saved the worry and expense of
looking after such a proposition.
All in all. Smvrna. it is felt. has
made an advantageous deal

MEASURE FOR NEW TRIBUNAL
IN KENT CAUSES SPECULATION
GOVERNOR To NAME JUDGE
FOR COMMON PLEAS COURT
Names of e. ID. Wiley, e. V. Keith
Geo. Nj. Fisher, Jr., All Republi-
cans, Among Those Suggested

One of the hardest fights ever
made for a measure in Kent coun-
ty was ended Wednesday when
Governor c. Douglass Buck signed
the bill creating a Court of Com
mon Pleas for Kent county. The
court will begin work as soon as
Governor Buck appoints a judge
for the court. The judge must be
a member of the bar with five
years practice and will receive a.
salary of $4,000 year. Deputy
Attorney-General Earl D. Wiley is
being prominently mentioned in
connection with the appointment.
His friends assert that he has done
excellent service as attorney-gen-
eral and is in every way capable.
1t is said that in case Deputy At
torney-General Wiley is named for
the place, a number of lawyers will
ask Attorney-General Reuben Sat
terthwaite to name Ernest V.Keith,
a member of the State Senate, and
the man who introduced the bill
providing for the Common Pleas
Court, to the position of Deputy
Attorney-General for Kent county.
Hon. w. H. Boyce, a former judge,
is also mentioned as is also George
M. Fisher, Jr. The bill creating
the Common Pleas Court has been
before the Legislature for at least
three sessions. This time it had
the support of practically all the
members of the Kent County Bar
Association and also the opposition
of practically all of the justices of
the peace in Kent county. The
justices claimed that the establish
ment of the court would cut ma
terially into the fees of their of
fee. Despite this, the Governor
felt it was a good bill and signed
it.
