Places to the Public when the Law
Specifically states That the Counting
Of Ballots Shall BE Done Publicly.
The second conference on the question
of non-partisan deputy sheriffs was held
at the Clayton House yesterday after
noon 1t resulted in nothing and the
conferees will meet again.
Ihe reason that no agreement could be
reached WAS that the Re epublicans pre-
ssnted a number Of counter propositions
which the Democrats could not consider
for an instant.
The Democratic conferees, TO secure
fair and peaceable election, proposed that
Sheriff Gould, a Republican, appoint a
non partisan force Of deputy sheriffs to
guard the polling places in Wilmington
and preserve order In other words that
one haf Of his force be Democrats
following the lead of Sheriff Simmons, q
Rspubl can, two years ago.
The Republican conferees In return
for this demand that the Democratic De
partment Of Elections remove a number
Of Republican election officers of Demo-
cratic selection and replace them With
the heelers named by the First district
committee. That the Democratic sheriffs
OF Kent and Sussex counties appoint sim
liar forces for service in those counties
where deputies have never been known.
That the polling places be closed when
ths votes are being counted and that
each party be represented therein by
three men
This last proposition is contrary to Law
as il Gays the votes shall bs counted pub
