REPUBLICAN, PARTY.
Democratic Alliance With Liquor Interests.

The Democrats once TO the front as defend
the quor interests The Democrats are now appealing
to liquor dealers line against the Republican cand
dates at Saturdays election.
Why? Because some of the Republican nominees
Mayor Wilson, Councilman White and Councilman Ross are
accused of being advocates of local option legislation In
remarkable circular the iquo Dealers they asked
TO defeat the Republican candidates.
The Republican party is willing to stand on its record
for enactng local option law The people demanded
right the question of License no license,
and a Republican Legislature granted that right The Demo-
cratic party always has defended and depends upo the
liquor interests Hence it surprising that many Demo-
cratic Assembymen voted against local option and that the
Democrats expecting the powerful aid of the whiskey
ring in the present campaign
For lack of any issue the Democrats have reached the
explaining stage They depend upon the mythical Ring
and Machine bugaboos They claim credit for the
Legislature
They do not explain that Democratic opposition
killed the Initiative and Referendum Bill for the State
Senator David c. Rose, acknowledged mocrac leader in
the Senate killed that bill 1t had passed the House and
Rose would consent to being put to vote in the
Senate.
The Democrats with all their explaining unable to
explain the facts that the Republican Legislature
passed law increasing and definitely fixing the taxes
Public Service Corporations in Wilmington and that the
Republican Council has paid of Democratic debt of $40
without increasing the tax rate one cent
The Democrats do explain, either that they voted
against enacting Board of Trade Charter Bill SUBJ

semblymen supported both measures

SOME FOWL OMENS

In our study of folklore. supersti-
tions. and omens, we find that the
laying Of eggs and the actions and
doings Of hens and roosters have all
ways been looked upon by the super
stitious of all nations as "sure signs"
Of number Of good as well as bad
things. Below we note a few Of the
principal omens and, superstitions.
You are not lucky IL your hen does
double duty. for when hen lays an
egg with a double yolk some of your
relatives will die.
II is unlucly to bring in eggs after
dark
If your hen lays a soft-shelled egg
do not keep Il, throw It over the house
and thus throw away your bad luck.
To break en- egg when taking it from
the nest is sign Of some unpleasant
event near by.
In Persia they say that If water
touch eggs that are set the chicks
hatched from them viii drown.
If eggs have been carried over run
ming water they win not hatch.
If you want to remain lucky don't
sell eggs after sunset.
In Madagascar the natives think
that whoever steals an egg will be-
come a leper.
Eggs laid during the twelve days
after Christmas should be carefully
preserved. for if placed under a sitting
hen they will produce beautiful, large,
fat chickens.
If you put eggs under a hen when
the wind is IN the east. IL viii take
two more days than usual for the eggs
TO hatch
The inhabitants Of Rome state posi-
lively that If a man finds an egg laid
by a rooster, he viii be fortunate ever
after.
Tic tenth egg laid by a hen win be
the largest laid by her during the year
1t is unlucky to put eggs under a sit
ting hen before sundown. for If you
do some of the chicks will be blind,
so say the Arabs
IF you set hens to hatch on st. VAL
entine's day, the eggs win rot.
Set hens to hatch while people are
coming out Of church and you will
have plenty Of chickens.
To see a hen In the act of laying
brings good luck.
Here's one from Jerusalem; BY ty-
ing an old tough hen to fig tree, she
will become tender.
II is bad luck to kill a chicken and
have il die in your hands.
Fortune viii come to the housewife
II the brood Of chickens are all roost-
ers.
II. on a rainy. gloomy day, chickens
try to fiy onto fences and sit on was-
ons. it is a sign that the next day Will
be fair.
some Pennsylvania girls believe that
If q big. bold rooster crows in your
cellar door, it is a sign Of speedy mar
riage.
We close with one true one, viz;
When the roosters Of the world stop
Growing, the end Of It is at hand
