DEAR SIR In the past few weeks l have
noticed seveial letters aud editorials III the Eo.
cry Epenthg, claiming To give the views Ut the
Republicans Of this county and especially OF
this section, for the choice OF Governor. We
should let them pass without moi Ice so far as
this county is Concerned, for L. Els influence
here is very tame, but for fear some of its read
ers In New Castle County might think il ap.
proxlmates the truth In its editorials about, and
letters from this county, | wish Ia deny It's
statements.
The Republicans If Sussex expect to support
the successful noiniuee, but We want him TO
BIZ strong, popular, Intelligent, honest and ev-
ely way qualified for the place aud with such
man US our leader We can carry the Slate aud
carry Sussex county too: and venture to say
that more than thfee-iuurths Of the Republi
cats OF this county think DIR. Isaac Jump Is
the man TO lead us on 10 victory. In my busi-
ness callings in the different pats of the colIn-
ty,l have made inquiry OF the leading Republic
cans Ms TO their choice tor Governor aud find
with but lew exceptions, that DR.. Jump is the
choice. The DR.. is popular In this county with
the masses, and II he Is nominated can count
more than one Democrat that " Ill vote Tor him.
We want him al the head To help carry our
county ticket through successfully. In looking
over my old election returns, fiul DR.. Jump
has been before the people but once tor Office
and then for Sta,e Senator for Kent county In
1860 and then ho was elected and lead the
ticket over hundred votes, outstanding
the Democrats made every effort 10 def;a him;
| meution this 10 show his popularity at that
day and any one who knows him, knows he be-
comes more popular every day. HIS cou rse III
the Legislature iu 1850 showed him To be d
man Of progress, he opposed all laws offered toI
| the oppression Of the colored people.
E. Z. said OH Saturday that out of the Il
hundreds OF Sussex Co. would elect delegates
opposed to DR.. Jumps nomination. He doni
| know what he Is talking about or he makes O
| wilful mistatement about this county TO make
capital against DR.. Jump in some other part OF
the State. do not believe you can find lift eel
Republicans in Seaford hundred opposed To DR.
Jump, and when the time comes, instead o
Sussex sending delegates from 9 out OF her l;
hundreds against DIR. Jump, she will send Il
ont of - for him. As said before we wan
hun nominated because he Is every way quail
fed for the office and popular with the people
| Yours, Y Y z.
