sussex the Battlefield.


In few days we shall know whether
Higgins or Addlcks is the dominsnt
factor In Republic an politics In Delaware.
AddIcks comedies Nav Castle county to
Higgins, and Higgins comedies Kent
county to Addlcks. This makes Sussex
county the battlefield, for upon the out
come Of the primary election In that
county hangs the political fortunes Of
both. They know It aud are making
ready to meet the emergency which
means political death to one or the
other.
In New Castle county Addlcks will
content himself with making a show OF
strength and capturing a stray delegate e
here and there. The Higgins managers
say that he may get fifteen of the New
Castle delegates, but no more.
Down In Kent county the Higgins and
Massey factions will make show OF
strength against Addlcks, but they only
claim twelve Of the forty-two delegates
These are not conceded by Addlcks, who
claims q solid delegation from the mid =
land county.
Sussex county Is always uncertain,
especially ~hen the fortunes OF the day
depend upon IT, IL money Is to be used
on May 9. the man with the longest purse
will secure the delegation. for the vot =
ers OF that county have made an unen-
viable name for themselves By their
venallty OF election time II We are to
measure the fight by the standard Of
dollars, Addicks should be able TO win !;
but II II is to be an honest election,
with. bribsry, fraud and Intimidation
eliminated, the Higgins faction ought to
be able to secure a large maj j)rlty Of the
delegates.
Whichever side succeeds at the pri-
mAfles will naturally wish to be victorious
over the Democrats party at the general
election. The question naturally arises,
can either higgins or Addioks afford to
make 1t q fight OF money aud force We
think not, for the defeated faction will
only need a reasonable prstsxt for bolt
log the ticket ut the general election,
and the faction which gains the ascend
encY In May will want to be In a position
which cannot justify a bolt Of any de-
Ecription
Still. In the face OF past events we need
not besurprlsed at anything To thepublio
at large there appears to be disposition
on tho part Of Higgins and Addlcks to
settle the question of supremacy now
and for all time. This means that
they will be compelled to allow the
general election to 60 by default. for,
after the Republican party has bsen rent
asunder by bitter factlonAl strife, 1t can
not bs reOrkanized In time to prosecute a
successful campaign In November.

Good Merchandising.

We conduct our business
on the cash basis. We pay
cash for all our purchases and
we sell for cash. Our prompt
cash payments give US the best
credit and highest standing
enabling US to buy our goods
from first hands at bottom
prices. No better goods or at
lower prices come to this city
than are found on our shelves
and counters. We do business
with the best and most respon-
sib'e houses in the country.
We are very particular to Sc
cure the best brands aud the
very best makes of goods pro-
duced on either side of the At
lantic. We think that all of
our many customers know.
without our proclaiming it all
the time, that we sell goods on
their merits We do not allow
our salespeople to misrepre-
sent. The child of 10 years will
make as good a trade as the
mos expert shopper. Weguar-
antee pefect satisfaction or re.
fund the money. You run no
risk in dealing with us. Beware
Of the merchant who finds it
necessary to be always pro
claiming his honesty and sup
eriority, and as 10 the exclusive
business we hear so much about
in the newspapers, it is quite
often the ve1iest bosh. Our
money is as good as that of any
New York or Philadelphia
merchant. We can purchase the
same goods from the same par
ties as they do and can sell
them a trifle cheaper, as we are
satisfied with a smaller profit
than these lordly merchants
are. Ever since we came to this
city we have been the recog-
nized leaders of low prices,
which have provoked some of
our competitors in the past to
tell their customers, for the
sake of getting a few cents a
yard more for goods, that our
goods, although they knew
they were exactly the same,
were of an inferior quality. The
shrewd, the careful, the eco
nomical customer will find the
best and the cheapest at our
large, well-lighted and pleasant
store. Nowhere will your dol
lar bring you a larger return in
merchandise

at Fremont, Nebraska. Mr.. and
Miss Dana had just returned from
a visit there, and when they left
the father was feeling much better.
They left again yesterday morning

Apropably take place to-morrow.
James Dsaa- was born p years
ago last July. He early took to
railroad work and for forty vears
was an engineer on the road.
Several years ago he came to live
in Montpelier with his son and
daughter, and remained here until
few months since, when he went
east for medical treatment.
During his residence here he en-.
deared himself to all by bis large
ness Of heart and kindly DISPOSE
ton. He took lively interest in
all matters coming under his obser-
vation' and few were better posted
on railway work than he.
He leaves three daughters and
son to mourn his demise. The Elk
AMINER need not assure them that
the sympathy of this community
goes out TO those who are thus left.
for all know full well the loss of a
loving father and kind and gen.
erous parent. The husband has
gone to'join the wife and mother,
who passed, over to the great be.
