The Republicans Numbered ia this
matter as 10 nearly everything they
have undertaken in Delaware.
They should wake up or turn the
whole affair over to those who know
more about politics than the people

The machine needs repairing aud

who PIN their faith 10 Republican
supremacy in Delaware.
EXCESSIVE damages drove the
bolt and nut woalts of Hopes and
Townsend from Wilmington to To-
Gale in Philadelphia. The same
cause has compelled the Brandy
wine Granite Company to 20 out of
business. The Company came to
the conclusion at a meeting OF the
stockholders on Wednesday that,
owing ~ the attitude of the court,
it would not be possible to conduct
their business proiitablv and take
chances on damage suits that
might, from time to time. be brought
by men in their employ who were in
jured in theirquarries. Thismeans
that a large number OF men to
whom they have given employment
vii. have to seek work elsewhere.
Wilmington can't ford to lose any
'ndu s:ry that gives EMPLOY ent to
our people. Excessive damages
should not be awarded against our
manufacturers or corpor ations do
ing business in Delaware. 1t will
not do TO kill the goose that las
