= The Susser Republican published at
Georgetown says of ITSELF: AS our
readers well known, we have been steadily
advancing until we are now publishing a
paper that the Republican has reason to be
proud OF as well as the town in which it is
puohShed; A few months ago we put in a
nrst-class half medium Gordon lob press
and this weeks issue is printed on our new
complete Campbell, ,-one of the best, if not
9he very best presses anywhere to be found
south OF Wilmington, in this State. Our
circulation is now 1909 and, we believe, the
largest of any weekly paper published in
the State, and is increasing rapidly.

NEW CASTLE DEMoCRATs.-The Demo
cratic County Executive Committees
elected Theodore F. Armstrong, of New
ark, chairman; Colin Ferguson, secretary,
and Willard Salisbury, treasurer. The
rank and file of the Democratic party,
which has been Objecting to the election OF
General Theodore f. Armstrong of Newark
as chairman of the Democratic County
Executive Committee instead of Willard
Squlibury, do not seem to realize why that
change. From what could be learned the
Democratic county craftsmanship went
begging. 1t was offered to Willard Saulis
bury, but he declined it and though he wa!
begged to take it he absolutely refused
John Biggs could have had the place if he
would have accepted it, bat he refused tC
have anything to do with it, He would
have none oft. Peter j. Ford was too bus,
to accept the place and so it went to tn
country. General Armstrong was willing
} and he got it. Mr.. Salisbury, in view 0
his senatorial aspirations could not afford
after his brilliant work of the last campaign
to take the risk OF the coming election
Peter ]. Ford could not afford to risk hi
reputation as an astute politician by rum
ing any risk of having his party defeated
Y while he was in command. John Biggs
:. mentioned as a candidate for representativ
q in Congress, and in the event of his nomi
nation he would be compelled to resign tn
craftsmanship.
