Unfortunately for many families the
good old Democratic times have struck
New Castle once more During the past
few days large number of men employed
at the Delaware Iron Works have been
laid off, owing to the want of orders. II
is too bad that the New Castle industrial
establishments one aft er another are COM
pelied to shut down.
And still we can hear the idle operatives
shout for free silver. Free silver for the
workingmen Of New Castle means out
door relief on a larger scale than was in
force few years ago But what care the
people for hunger so long as they support
Democracy.
