ADDIcKs PARTY LOSES ITS EMBLEM.
Flye-poluted Star Cannot Appear at Head Of
the UuiOn Republican Ticket.

Former Clerk of the Peace, Winfield
s. Quigely, of New Castle County, has
decided that the Union Republican
party is not entitled to use the FIVE
pointed star as an emblem to head its
ticket on the official ballot, and ..he has
SO informed the officers OF that organi-
cation. This is a Knockout for the
Addicks men, who contended that the
reorganization Republican Convention
had no right to take over the star and
put it on the breast of the eagle as the
united party's emblem. ). Edward
Addicks, at his State Convention re-
Gently, asserted that if the clerks of
peace deprived his party of the use of
the star he would appeal to the courts.
1t is doubtful if he will do this, how
ever, as it is expected the Union Re-
publican ticket will be hauled down in
a few days and will not even be on the
official ballot. Clerk of the Peace
Quigely is understood to have OBJ
tanned opinions of able lawyers in
making his decision. He did not con-
fer with clerks Of the peace of Kent or
Sussex Counties, for a complete Union
ticket was not filed in those counties.
