Our Fall and Winter
Clothing For Men and Boys.

The kind of suits we wanted this
fall have been hard to get, but We now
have them.
Indeed we have already sold quite
a quantity of them. Although we have
hardly had time to display them.
Its a wonderful stock, we don't
think that any other in Milford can
compare with it, "our University Suits
ara more conspiculously in the lead
than ever.
For instance, in young mems sacks
we have no less than six models or
shapes, each one so different from all
the Others as to give you chance to buy
which most becomes you.
In overcoats we have three different
models, and each shape both of suits
and overcoats is shown in many varieties
and qualities of fabric.
Our line of fancy vests and trousers
are the handsomest and finest ever
shown in Milford.

To-MoRRow will be the last day
for registration in Delaware, and all
Republicans must remember that
although there is dissatisfaction with
part of the ticket as nominated by
the county of Kent, yet 20 enable
the party to carry out its purposes
of administration in county govern
ment, all republicans owe it to them
selves to register and vote at the
coming elections. Get in early be-
fore the rush commences, or you

IT looks as if the ticket nominated
in New Castle County by J. Edward
Addicks and the men posing as his
friends, is to align the negro vote as
a race into a party to themselves.
The result of this management will
bring trouble for somebody in the
future.

In Milford three churches and a
meeting of farmers have taken ac-
ton, and have agreed to support the
democratic nominee for senator from
the fifth senatorial district, which is
now being contested for by Wilson
Vinyard and Alvan Conner. The
reason assigned by the temperance
and church folks for supporting Mr..
Vinyard, is that he is an avowed
friend of prohibition, while the
farmers are banking at re-electing a
railroad man fer four years more to
Milford chronicle., 1906-10-19

IT is useless to say that the people
are becoming reconciled to the ticket
as nominated last week at Dover;
they are not. On the contrary, the
people of the tenth district with
others all over the county of Kent,
are determined to administera sting
ing rebuke to the people who forced
the nominations regardless of party
rules and in the most CALLING man
n0r. A ssWRty office is simply a
matter of dollars and cents TO the
party, and has no influence with
the people; speaking generally, and
therefore when incompetent and no
tororiously impropermen are named,
the people should repudiate the ac-
ton of those who manipulate the
nominations. With this in view
the people are approaching the polls
now, and we certainly expect to see
some surprising results when the
votes or counted out.
Milford chronicle., 1906-10-19

THE democrats profess to feel con-
fident of carrying the November
election in Delaware. Its not so,
they don't believe any such dreams
will come true. The state ticket of
the republican party will be elected
by a handsome majority, and the
legislature will be republican on
joint ballot by safe majorities; but
the rotten spots in nominations will
be dealt with by republican voters
in such way as will put an end to
future applications of the unit rule.
Don't forget it.
