EASTERN SHORE EDITORS ARE
THINKING OF.

EASTERN SHORE EDITORS ARE
THINKING OF.
The Republicans are showing their
hand already. Two Higgins Levy Court
candidates were removed here in Sus-
sex this week and two Addicks men
endorsed in their place. If they elect
these two the Republicans will have
the Levy Court. Democrats, there's
work ahead for us.-Sussex Countian.
Who was there so foolish as to think
that any part of the regular Repubi-
can ticket would be withdrawn save
and except the electors? If there be
anyone so innocent he will surely 20
to heaven, for he is too green to burn.
Delaware Economist.
We urge every loyal Republican to
stand by his party and vote its ticket.
Vote as your conscience will approve
after the election is over, and as will
be TO the credit of your party in years
to come. Vote to save your state and
party the dishonor of having sold a
seat in the United States Senate.-Sus-
sex Republican.
The Democracy of Delaware heartily
endorse the state ticket headed by Tun-
nell and Handy. There may be few
who are passing into the Republican
ranks across the Palmer and Buckner
bridge, but what OF the host that is
flOcking to the Bryan and Sewall
standard. Young Tom Bayard will go
to bed on election night wondering
why we did not have sense enough to
know that he was a fool.-Sussex Jour
nal

national commander of the Union Vet
eran Legion at the convention which
met In Washington, ID. c., on Tuesday
After a very exciting contest Colonel
Donahoe received 204 votes, while his
opponent, General Paver, of Indianapo-
lis, received ia votes. The popularity
OF Colonel Donahoe insured his elec-
tion, for which no doubt he feels justly
/ proud of the distinction conferred upon
him by his fellow comrades Daily
Republican.
Amid all the interrogatories beinl
propounded to the candidates for tn,
Legislature and the Constitutional Con
vention, it might not be amiss to in
sert one like this: DO you believ,
that the State of Delaware belongs {,
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company?
Milford Herald.
To-day the courts will decide upon
commission to act in the Greenwoo,
crossing case and It is hoped all obsta
cles will be removed by this commits
sion's decision and that the O. A. & X
promoters will be allowed to go on an
! complete the road. We wish them al
success and this is the feeling of all Il

Should the Handy boom keep o
growing it will sweep the state in
