A DEADLOCK in PROSPECT.
Kent County Levy Court is Equally Divided
Politically,

Politically.
Special Correspondence of Gazette and Journal.
Dover, Jan. 26.-The Republican
members of the Kent county Levy
Court find they are placed in peculiar
position. AS the court is equally divided
or will be at the session to be held here
next month, the Republicans cannot
possibly affect an organization without
the aid OF the Democrats. The law
provides that when there is tie vote
in the court, the clerk of the peace
who at present is Republican, shall
have the deciding vote. In the present
case, however, the Democratic mem
hers can refuse to 60 ia with the Re-
publioans in the organization, or even if
they should go in they can refuse to
vote, and the clerk would have no
chance to vote, there being no tie.
In anticipation of failure to or
ganize the Levy Court, the Republican
members held a meeting here yester
day, the proceedings of which were not
divulged. Another meeting will be
held before the time for organization.
As the court has at its disposal a
number of offices, the Republicans are
anxious to control the same.
