Practically all the delegates here
agreed that Sussex county, having
come to Dover with a warning dele
cation in a contest between Holland

lege of nominating a congressman for
six years-Edward Fowler, In 1900;
Henry A. Houston. in 1902. and Ed
ward ID. Hearne. in 1904. should not
claim that right to-day.
/ Judge Marvel was offered to them
as a compromise. He Is a native of Sus-
sex caunty. and widely known there.
and was not identified on either side
of the Holland-Hearne fight.
Marvel last night declined the nomi-
nation stating that he did not want
! it under any consideration.
! The delegates, however. are conf
dent that he will accept a unanimous
nomination. He owes his elevation to
the bench to the Democratic party.

chairman strikes the crowd here with
