The mixed up condition Of the poll
tics of 1896 was amply illustrated on
Saturday evening. A meeting was
held under the auspices of the Single
Takers, at the Opera House. 1t was
however presided over by John NJ.
Voshell, a lifelong democrat, the
speaker, John S. Crosby, of Kansas
City, Mo, glib and ready talker, was
an ex-Republican but now a free sill
verite, while the audience was largely
democratic with clever sprinkling of
the parties. The speaker dwelt largely
on the silver question and in advocacy
of Bryan, but wound up with the pro-
phecy that in four years they would
all be Single Takers.

The Smyrna Steamboat Co. under
the management of John R. Watkins
and William Brady are now putting in
shape the st. Ella which they have just
purchased and in the course of a week
they expect to begin tri-weekly trips
between Smyrna Landing and Philadel-
phia. In deciding upon place where
they will build their wharves the Com
pany has been undecided between the
location at L. NJ. Prices phosphate
works and the Beck property this side
of the Philadelphia and Smyrna Trans
portatiOn Co. They hope to consum-
mate arrangements to-day and in the
course of a few days to have everything
in running order.

Candidate for Governor, Hoffecker,
who spent the most of last week in
Sussex County with Hon. J. s. Willis
came, home on Saturday and returned
Monday evening, to take part in a
meeting that night at Bridgeville.
They, in company with other speakers,
visited the eastern side of the county
and will give their attention to the
western side this week. They have
the Laurel Band drawn by six white
horses and uniformly have mostly good
meetings. The Sussex Republicans
tell them that there is much enthusiasm
among the people, and they expect to
carry the county, not only for the
electors, but for Hoffecker and Willis
as we'll, though Higgins with a corps
of speakers is trying to cause . diver.

Stamp the ballot in the square en-

vote; fold it so that the initials of the

posted in the ballot box.
There are but two main tickets to be
voted here next Tuesday-The Demo
crat and the Union Republican There
are so many tickets as to bewilder un-
suspecting voters. This will be espec-
tally so with the Republicans, who
have heretofore been stamping the
eagle. Those who want to vote for
HOtfecker and Willis and the Kent Co.
Republican ticket must stamp the star,
that is, in the square containing the

The St. Elizabeth Van Solver OF the
Phila. and Smyrna Transportation
Company is meeting with fattering
encouragement with its passenger pat
rOnage. On Monday she carried thirty
passengers to Philadelphia. A. E.
Jardine, when interviewed, was pleased
with the prospect and is about to make
some neat improvements in the ar
rangement of state rooms and saloon
for the accommodation of the guests.
Besides the passenger service her
freight is very heavy.
Before another issue of the TIMES the
election will be held With so many
political parties in the field, the ballot
as now prepared, has become rather an
unwieldy affair. 1t may have some ad-
vantages over the former method of
voting, but it certainly has some dis
advantages. 1t is difficult to substi-
tute one candidate by another and the
slightest mistake may invalidate the
entire ticket. The more simple the
ballot can be made the better, and every
opportunity should be afforded the
voter to alter or change the ballot to
suit himself. The inspectors or judges
should not be allowed to throw out a
ballot upon any pretext or mere blot.
Their aim should be to honestly record
the intention of the voter, and if they
fail to do so, they are derelict in the
discharge of their duty An inspector
or Judge who willingly perverts the in
tentiOn of the voter, is dishonest man
and should be so considered.
