legislative ticket. j. Edward Addicks
presided over the'meeting, held in the
Bader building, by virtue of being
county chairman. He said the action
was unanimous. "Will you be a can

"No," he replied, 81 do not want it, l
could have had the nomination at
Dover on Wednesday last if had said
the word, but did not want it, and at
the request of some OF the boys down
in Sussex l turned in for DIR. Burton.
1t is possible that the ticket nominated
at Dover Wednesday may be nominated
in our own state convention. We also
will nominate complete county ticket
and once our ticket is put up it will
not come down" Mr.. Addicks said he
knew of no negotiations to be conduct
ed to try to bring about single ticket
for New Castle county.
