Willis endeavored to get some repre-
sentative Republican Congressman
here to make addresses, but they were
all either ashamed to come to Della
ware under such auspices, or else too
busy fighting Democrats to leave their
districts Finally they did succeed in
getting some fellow from the coal rc-
eions of Pennsylvania who had Oeen

The Addicks people held their pri-
maries on Saturday. Each man was
given the right TO poll five votes, and
then the total poll was only 23to in the

is only AIS 3-5. Steve DOwney pulled
