BALLOT COSTS
IN KENT CITED
Cost Per Thousand in Crit
cism Said to be Higher Than
in New Castle County
AUDITORS RAISE QUIZ

A report submitted by the aud
itors of Kent County to Resident
Judge w. w. Harrington On Janu-
airy 81, 1888, pointing out that a
bill of S6,232.80 for printing ballots
at the last previous election seem
ed unnecessarily large may be call
ed to the attention of the special
House committee, named to in
vestigate ballot costs in the State.
Walter o. Hoffecker and John c.
Hopkins, the auditors, stated, in
part, in their report: 1--WE again
want to stress the necessity for
economy along all lines of the
county's business. Expenses must
be watched in the interest of
the taxpayers. The bill of S6232.-
80 for printing ballots for the last
election seems unnecessarily large
and we raise the question whether
the printing of a much smaller
number of ballots by amendment
to the law would not meet all re-
quirements." 1t is pointed out that
with approximately $4,000 voters
in Kent county and eight ballots to
be printed to a voter, 10000 bal
lots were probably the number re-
quired. With ballots to be printed
for Fl election districts in Kent
county, their cost, on this basis,
would be $51.93 per thousand, with
a small number of changes to be
made in their set up, it is shown.
The New Castle county figures
are said to reveal that it cost
1888 per thousand for the 184
election districts there, with AZ
changes to be made in the rural
ballots and six in those of Will
mington The changes are made
twice in New Castle county and
there is a complete printing of all
the ballots in the county to permit
compliance with the absent voter
law Changes also are made for
the printing of the ballots to be
furnished the political parties. the
election officers and the reserve.
The total cost of printing the 1882
ballots in New Castle county was
S33,643 No announcement has
been made as to when the COM
mittee will meet 1t organized
Wednesday by naming Represen-
tative Pryor as chairman and Rep
resentative Price as secretary.
Both are Democrats. Representa-
tives Dugan and Wilson are also
members of the committee.

ceive proposals and report at the
next meeting of the Court in April.
1t was represented that the cost
of the new bridge and causeway
would not exceed $4,000 and some
persons estimated the whole cost
of the work as low as So 800. The
members of the Court seem to be
favorable to the new bridge and
road and if the work can be done
for $500 in a proper manner it is
very probable that the Levy Court
would appropriate this amount
without much hesitation. "A road
across the pond would consider
ably shorten the carriage ride of
persons going from the north side
and will thus be popular move
with those riding thither from this
section.

DAIRYMEN NOT
FOR CONTROL
Processing Tax Would Be
Placed on Fluid Milk
and Butterfat
MEET IN WASHINGTON

A national conference of COOP
erative milk producers gathered
Thursday with chip on it's collec-
tive shoulder. The chip represents
opposition to the Administrations
new milk control plan In an ad-
vance statement members of the
conference opened fire on the gen
eral policy of milk marketing
agreements. Attacks on the con-
troll plan were expected later. The
milk program, covering the last of
the commodities named as eligible
under the agricultural adjustment
act, proposes curtailment of milk
and butterfat production by Is per
cent below the average production
of each dairy farmer during 1882
and 1888. A processing tax would
be placed on fluid milk and butter
fat. In return farmers who sign
ed contracts with the government
to reduce would receive benefit
payments of 40 cents per 100
pounds of butterfat on the amount
of their curtailment. Part of this
would be paid after approval of
contracts and the balance after 6
months. Supplementing this plan
are three proposals for relieving
existing SURPRISES. The first would
appropriate 100000 for buying
surplus milk for underfed children
in cities; the second would spend
another $5,000,0OO for purchasing
healthy cows in surplus areas and
distributing them to needy farm
families in deficit areas; and the
third would allocate 100000 to
eliminate cattle affected with tu-
berculosis and Bangs disease. The
cost of .the program is estimated
at $165. 100000 with the possibility
that S300,00O,0OO will be expended
if amendments pending in Con-
gress are adopted.
