The hope Of Republican candidate for
Congress in this State seems to depend
altogether upon the soundness of the dog
question in Sussex, and if the Democracy
Of Sussex goes back on the dog law, then
it is thought by his party that he will
stand some chance of election, but the peo-
pie of Sussex declare that they are not SO
fond Of eating dog as the Republicans Of
New Castle are Of eating crows.

have dangled the Red specter before his eyes, and

The alarming element in the present situation has
