1he Wilmington Conference in ses-
sion at EastOn, Md, adopted n series
OF resolutions prepared by the com
mlttee on temperance, which were
read by the chairman of the commit
tee, the Rev. DR.. W. Writ King. These
resolutions scored the IS members
OF the Delaware Legislature who
voted III the negative on the local
option bill and especially roasted the
three Union Republicans who declined
to vote. The conference by resolution.
put itself on record as declaring that if
any of these 18 men are ever capdi-
dates for office again the conference
VIII do its utmost to defeat them.
The Rev. Vaughan S. Collins. presi-
dent of the Delaware State Temn4r-
ance Alliance, informed the confer
ence that he had a copy of the official
vote on the local option bill and that
10000 copies of the names of the Rem
resentatlyes who voted in the neoa-
tive and those who refused to vote will
be printed and distributed. He added
that these lists would be sent to mem
Ders OF the conference every month
Tor two years, and appealed to the
members Of the conference not to
throw them in their waste basket but
to circulate them. He announced that
the name Of Henry S. Anthony. Speak.
er OF the House, one of the STRONGEST
enemies OF the bill, will be printed in
red ink. He intimated that tie leuis-
lators who refused to vote in the aflir-
native on the bill had been influenced
by the Liquor League and said that
the paid attorney of the Liquor
League, after the vote on the bill had
been taken, signaled to Representa-
tive Tyre and member on the Demo-
cratic side to make motions with the
intention of having the bill buried be-
yond the possibility of resurrection.
but this action was called off.
