prestige they now possess. The atti-
tude the friars assume is regarded not

ton of their Inhabitants.

tary Root could be obtained, but UNI

is being drafted in response to that

WIN. MICHAEL BYRNE, U. S. Dis

WIN. MICHAEL BYRNE, U. S. Dis
trict Attorney, struck the popular
vein in his letter to the press when
he advocates the election of two
U. S. Senators from Delaware, no
matter who they may be. The peo-
pie are tired of the foolish policy
persued by several men and realize
that i the,Republicans let the oppor-
tunity pass by at the election this
fall, it will be six and possibly 20
years before they have another OPP
portunity of being III the ascenden-
cy again in Delaware. The one idea
from now until election day rolls
around is to elect enough Republi-
cans to the Legislature to insure the
election of two U. S. Senators. Any
other course means to hand the
State, county and city of Whining
ton over to the Democrats. Tie
Democrats will then elect all State
and county officers and perpetuate
Democracy for years.
The next State Senate, it should
not be forgotten, has a Democratic
majority Of holding over members.
With a two-tliirl vote in the Legls-
lature, the Democrats could make
some radical changes in the present
officials. This is tie reason we rec
onmend the voters to carefully read
Mr.. Byrne's letter. When such men
as eX-Sheritf Armstrong, John w.
Dnyett and dozens of good loyal
Republicans say IL Is time to QUIT
fooling and redeem the State and
send two Senators to Washington,
they voice tEe sentiment OF the
majority of the Republican voters
OF the State.
In New Castle county dozen or
more officials will be elected. Can
didateS and their friends know fully
what the present fight means if it is
kent up, and they can do much
10 straightan out the suarl if they
90 about it in the right way. Re-
publican success means much to
hose who have the good of the pat
~ at heart. The condition i'll which
the last two Legislatures leit their
party and State, has encouraged
the Democrats to try to send two
Senators to Washington.
Any omission this year viii put
the men fighting the Republican
party Where they belong, by being
recognized leaders without hope or
onulCe OF success on election day.
Already mutterings are heard and
the question is asked "what's the
us4 Of getting registered; your vote

this has been the case in the past.
