NEW CASTLE. Oct. 27,

The Democrats are pulling their stakes
and commenced to hedge They try to brow
beat the claims OF the Single Takers but
| they cannot do II. Tho Democratic leaders
| place the vote of the Horny George follow
ers at only So Josep'i A. Carlin tho can
di,late fo- representative will receive not
less than three times that number of
straight single tax votes He is popular
young man and will therefore receive q
large number Of personal votes
The DEMOCRATS are opposed to the can
didate on their ticket for Representative
for various reasons
Persons who advance the claim that
this hundred will 60 Democratic by 100
majority simply do not know what they
arc talking about. The friends nj Harry
W. Husheheck tho candidate of tna Re-
publican party expect him to poll the full
party vote and to receive u good solid
slice off tho Democratic end.
When the votes are counted New Castle
will be on tho roll of honor New Castle
wants a new charter. She wants to make
progress and leave poverty behind. She
wants better streets and better schools.
Why should a man be compelled to send
his boy to commercial college for com.
mon English education If New Castle
owns 100 acres Of land and the rent of
which is to support tho schools?

own its water works and the man who is
opr oseJ to such state of affairs must be
defeated.
