The trio Of county assessors who out

are all candidates for reelection. What
excuse can honest men offer for voting

man In Wilmington, who does not feel
that they should be buried out of sight
by an avalanche Of honest ballots. No
oody can consistently defend their meth
ods without q tinge of shame for having
gone something unworthy OF their man

such men should aspire to a re nomina.
