DELAWARE RESULT DOUBTFUL.
Most Vigorous Campaign in Years
on Prohibition Issue

Wilmington. Del, Nov. 3.-On Tuesday
voters Of Delaware are TO decide at the
polls whether or not licensing. sale. and
manufacture Of intoxicating liquors shall
be continued. There ale four districts
Kent County, Sussex County. rural New
castle County, and the city of Whining
ton. Each district votes for itself The
campaign has been Waged with far more
vigor than any campaign in the State for
years.
Prohibition advocates have had many
speakers. and meetings have been held
nightly In every part Of the State. In
this city there were at least a dozen tenn
perance addresses in churches to-day. The
advocates Of license have had speakers
here. but the greatest work has been
done through the columns of the newspa-
pers in the way Of advertising The pa
pers Of this city have on some days car
ried nearly two pages of this advertising
With but few exceptions papers have
taken a neutral stand.
The result is awaited with anxiety.
There Is expectation that Kent and Sus-
sex counties and rural Newcastle County
will vote for prohibition. In this city the
prohibition people claim they will win by
a big majority. but the vote might be
close. although sentiment against the sa-
loon is pronounced.

The country is rich and prosperous;

Miss Lillian l. League and her parents 10

by Henry B. Ketcham. son OF the late
Congressman John II. Ketcham. Of New
York, was sustained by Judge GOrton.

fered a third and final paralytic stroke
she obtained from him $4,000 worth of
stock Of the Eastern Illinois Railroad.

il is not likely now that the event will
be repeated next year. There was a world
Of dissatisfaction shown throughout the

ly by visiting entries that a fair show
was not given them. II was understood
that New York patrons who entered their
horses this year have served notice that
they need not be expected TO compete
here again.

perhaps. a dozen entries in the show has
returned home feeling very bitter. and
yesterday made open and violent protests
against an award made ". P. Snyder.

horses in harness.

many blue ribbons perhaps influenced the
