Smyrna times., 1904-11-02

Before another issue of the Times,
Election will have come and passed
and the American people will haye
expressed their political sentiment at
the polls. Between now and then the
party leaders will be more or less exer-
cised in getting ont full vote. From
all parts of the country come express.
sions in favor of Roosevelt, who il is
claimed will be elected by an over
whelming majority. The Parker forces
are putting upall the bluff Imaginable
but seem unable to stem the tide of
popular favor. In State politics the
Republicans and Democrats are max
ing big claims as based on the recent
registration, but the getting together
, of the Republican factions has mater
Ially lessened the chances of the Dem
eocrats and the signs point to the cleo
ttion of Preston Lea and the whole
compromise ticket. Chandler, who
was deserted and left the lone state
candidate on the Independent Repub-
lican ticket will hardly affect the stu
alton despite the fact that his friends
boast that he will poll a thousand or
more votes in the city of Wilmington
and 500 in rural New Castle. Republi.
cans generally cOncede the compromise
ticket as a good one and the will not
sacrifice party success by voting for
"Me-or-Nobody" Chandler. Republi-
cans feel encouraged all over the state
and 1T only remains for the full vote to
get out on Election Day to give the re-
suit. Every voter should be at the
polls early and not put it off until late
in the day.

The movement started on foot to re-
vive the old Tschudy & Cats basket
factory is one that is received with fa-
vOr by nearly all our representative
business men and while some are in
clined to throw a wet blanket over it
by calling it a visionary scheme, there
are others who are possessed of enough
town pride to lend it hearty encourage
ment and support, Mr., Napp, it is true
comes to Smyrna as a stranger, but he
Is hustler and q man wide awake to
the impression that such a plant
should never remain idle in town of
such natural advantages as Smyrna
and q frnit section that is ranked
among thE best on the Delaware Mary
land Peninsula. 1t is to his credit
that an organized movement has been
accomplished to the extent of buying
the property and organizing and in
cooperating the company under the
name of The Smyrna and Kent County
Manufacturing Company. In the ac-
count given on our first page it will be
noted that our business men and fruit
growers are behind the movement and
that the superintendent aud secretary
and treasurer are Smyrna men who
have invested heavily with the idea of
making it a paying investment. MIR.
s. A. Fortner is one of the best known
lumber men in this section and his ex-
perience fits him for the superinten
dency of the plant. Mr.. A. L. Hudson.
Jr., is another man who has had con-
siderable experience in lumber and
inSsn in mill work and is regarded
as the right man for the Office of secre.
tary and treasurer. Mr.. Jardine will
cooperate with Mr.. Napp and with the
directors Gall home men) will direct
and manage the enterprise. Thus 1t
will be seen that the plant is entirely
under the control of our local men and
this fact alone should set at rest that it
IS promoters scheme" 1t will re-
main with the management to make
the industry a success and there seems
to be no established reason why an in
dustry of this kind cannot be made a
decided success. Let us give these
local men hearty encouragement and
not run the plant down. If we ever
expect to progress as a town, we must
foster home industries. Not every
citizen can take stock in the enterprise
but they can at least "invest enough
home pride" in it that will aid and en-
courage the officers and directors in
the work that lies before them.

Speaking of Dr. Joseph H. Chand-
ler's recent action the Morning News
of Wilmington, says: "Many of the
friends and former admirers of DR.. Jo-
seph H. Chandler, regret that he has,
at this late day, seen fit to make an
other effort to interfere with the or
derly process of the election. His de-
lay in filing his protest is significant
as indicating that back of it there is Il
hope of defeating the Republican
ticket. That the ticket decided upon
by the representatives of both Repub
lican organizations is strong ticket
is recognized, and it would be to the
interests of the State to have every
man on it elected. This ticket was
ma; according to an understood
agreement and carried out in good
faith. Therefore DIR. Chandler, if he
continues to have an abiding faith in
the principles of the Republican party,
with which we believe he has been
identified for many years, should ap-
preciate that his course at this time is
merely giving aid and comfort to the
Democratic party. We have had
enough experience with Republicans
trying to scuttle the Republican party,
but we never expected that DIR. Joseph
Fl. Chandler, for whom we have always
had the greatest respect, would lend
himself to scheme like the one his
friends have sought to operate.

HIGH PRICES
For all Foodstuffs in New York With
The Exception of Eggs.

New York-Practically ill food
stuffs except eggs have reached high
prices in this city, owing largely to
unfavorable weather. Prices which
were thought to be high 4 week or
two age now look reasonable FOR near
ly everything that reaches the table.
Fish, clans, oysters and Holsters are
most affected by the severe winter.
Oysters never have been SO scarce,
none coming from the market except
from Providence river beds. HOLSTERS,
which have been growing scarcer for
years are now hardly obtainable.
There is fairly good supply Of cod,
but the fresh fish, that is, fish not
frozen and transported to a considera-
BILE distance, are scarce. Potatoes,
beans, cabbage, lentils, beets and 9TH
er vegetables are higher than they
have been for years. Bread and rolls
are being raised in various parts of
the city and concerted action along
this line probably will be taken at a
meeting to be held next Thursday.
In the tenement house, where cab
bage, beans and potatoes are staple
article Of food, the peddlers even
have raised their prices a couple of
cents on each article sold.
