The policy of the Republican Levy
Court of Sussex county. and also the
Republican Sheriff. appears to beus'
whatever patronage they have to
uphold the Democratic organs at the
county seat of Georgetown. 1t is well
known that the patronage from these
two sources constitute the bulk of the
county printing, and over ninety pei
cent OF the sheriff's work goes to tht
papers that are now, week after week
using every argument, every Opportu
nifty of ridicule, and every misrepre-
sentatiOn that is permissible to break
down the Republican party in SUSSEX
county. The Levy Court gives it,
work to the same sources with very
few exceptioBs-a notable one being
the printing of one hundred thOusanr
county orders. This order was lit
tie more than those gentlemen, who
have the control of county finances
in charge, cared to put into Democratic
pockets In Delaware, so they sent it to
Philadelphia; entirely ignoring the
Republican offices in Milford OF any
other part of the State. 1t is verita
BILE fact, that the Democratic officials
Of-Sussex are more kind to the Repub-
lican publishers, than the members Of
their own patty have been SO far
Whether this arises from ignorance,
or want ofinstinet on the part of tht
Republicans, we know not; but this
we do know, that the facts exist, and
the party generally is asking why
this course has been pursued.

FROM the general dissatisfaction that
is openly expressed in Milford hun
dred among Republicans, that hundred
may be safely claimed by the Demo-
Gratis, by from one to three hundred
anajority. The trouble appears to be
in too much leadership and jealousy.
According to a report published in the
Evening Journal, OF Wilmington, and
which has not yet been cOntraoicted
by him in print, J. Oscar Brown has
again thrown in his fortunes with the
Democratic party, and intends to carry
the colOred vote of the hundred with
him. Then men high in the councils
of the party threaten its disruption,
etc., etc. How much longer this
child's play at politics is to continue,
only those participating in 1t can an
swer; but that their party suffers
through their stupidity no sensible
man attempts to disclaIm. A good,
healthy Democratic opponent is better
than such Republicans and the sooner
the Republican party realizes this, tn,
better it will be for them. The seced
ing Of one man from any party is one
vote lost, and when that act of session
is open and avOwed, the influence o.
the individual in his party ceases. A
man may leave his party, but it is next
to impossible for him to take his OLD
party friends with him. Arguing thus,
does not change the fact that the party
organization in Milford hundred is H.
bad shape and needs attention.

No decision has yet been made in

pei the collectors of Wilmington to
receive the poll taxes by power of at
torney given by the taxables of that
city, that they would not have to loose
time from their work; and which pow
er was not recognized by said collec-
tors. 1t is rather more than probable
that the decision will not come in
time to save a thousand or more poll
tax payers from being returned delin-
auent, end thus save the Democratic
party from defeat.

ember days. How could it be other
wise with Winter just before us, and
such a superb stock of Winter Dress
Goods-the products of two con-
tinents-displayed in apparently end
less profusion on a thousand feet OF
counters2
The question is sometimes asked;
Why carry so large toek,represent-
ing almost everything that is pro
duced abroad or at homer Would
not a smaller line equally satisfy the
demand, taking less room and leav-
ing space for other lines of goods!
our ansaoer as: Dress Goods with
us are the great specially of the
business, and we prefer to have not
alone a sufficient, but an OverJtoa0ing
stock, not being content simply to
meet the demand but leading 1t
alagays, and giving our patrons the
choice of ths worlds products.
Devoting ourselves not to general
merchandise, but to the great Dry
Goods business ereIuSiUely, we pre-
fer in that special business to lead
the country, devOting our whole
time and attention, with all the IA
cilities of our great organization, to
the service of our patrons in this
line. And with every added year
as the business grows greater and
has become of national repute, with
orders coming to us from every
State and Territory of the Union
notably from New York, Boston
and other centers of cOmmerce-we
feel increasingly satisfied to con-
tinue and still further perfect the
service to the great-public, In the
