SUSSEX HEARS A
POLITICAL BUZZ
RumOr From Wilmington That
GOV.Lea and Dr.. Burton Are
TO be RenOmindied
speeIal % THE EvENINa IouRNAL.

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
GEORGETOWN, Del. Dec 12--Many
Of the Republican workers and not a
few Of the party leaders throughout
Sussex county are guessing just now,
and it is all because disauieting rumors
that have been brought down from
Wilmington by some of the visitors
there recently
The report that IS causing some OF
the Republicans here TO sit up and
take notice is that friends of Governor
Preston Lea are preparing TO make a
fight 10 renominate him for second
term. which, If successful, would de-
prive Sussex of the governor for an-
other four years.
There is no denying down here that
the Republicans of Sussex are bent on
getting the next governor There may
be differences among them as to Who
Il shall be-Simeon S. Pennewin, DR.
I Caleb r. Layton or Thomas Curry be-
ing the most frequently mentioned
but there is a unaninity of feeling
that Sussex can find way TO settle
its difficulties and should have the
governor. That sentiment became
rooted in the minds Of Sussex workers
when Colonel Henry A. dupont was
/ elected United States Senator more
than q year ago. and the sentiment has
/ grown considerably since then. IL
| has grown 80 much. in fact, that Dr.
/ Layton has openly announced his
/ candidacy while friends of Senator
"Sin" Pennewiu have not been letting
1 his boom take on any moss to hinder
it's progress.
Just whether there is any foundation
for the reports that Governor Lea's
friends are trying TO renominate him
for another four years is not Known
here. but some of the observant ones
saw there Is much beneath the sur
face to indicate 1t. The governors at
titude toward a second term is no,
known here.
The report has IT that the friends
Of Governor Lea and Of Congressman
Hiram r. Burton may combine to Try
TO nominate both Of them, and it is
even hinted that Insurance Commits
sioner George w. Marshall, of Kent
county, may be doomed for third
term denomination, in order to give il
added strength.
This would knock awIy the political
plans of the Republican organization
leaders. They are said TO be in favor
of Sussex having the governor ano
New Castle county the congressional
nomination. with the other offices Il
be divided according &c rotation
method that will give all three counties
recognition. These reports, If true
will make a lively scramble for dele
gates to the Republican convention II
1908.

The women OF the Episcopal church
made an offering of $4,000 at the tri-
ennial general convention in Richmond.
The money is to be used for promoting
mission work. Women have always
been the chief contributors to churches
and missions, yet when it comes to the
disbursing Of the funds the procedure
seems to imply that it takes one quail
fly Of brain to collect money and an
other quality to spend it. Except when
the contribution box is passed women
are still expected to keep silent" in
most churches.

A writer in the Paris Matin says so.

owing to the great reduction in steam

foreigners are now enabled to gather
impressions Of America" Says this

Il used to believe that slavery was
abolished. but learned in New York
that this is not the case. Helots still

bands" She goes on to tell that from

days, when his fiancee expects him to
sQuander his substance upon ice cream
and flowers. ne is an unprotesting vic
tim. If the lady is accurate in her
statements the New York Benedict is
as zone sealed for sacrifice" His type
IS altogether unidentihable elsewhere.
The American man is not a moIlycod-

time the indignant American husband
gets through with the Paris Mathis

able to decide whether or not he Is an

In a recent newspaper contest
prize was offered to. the woman who
would set forth th6 best means for
keeping a husband at home. The win
ner Of the prize said that the only way
to do 30 was to make home more
pleasant than the lodge OF the saloon" ="
This seems like begging the question.
The average wife has not at her COM
mand the same funds for making home
pleasant that lodges and saloons have.
The man who has a weakness for these
institutions is more likely to contrib
ute his income to their support than to
that Of the home. A woman can't
smile and greet hubby afably when
she has the awful doubt about the
next months rent and when butchers
and bakers bills are hanging over her
head We need fewer articles on
How Women May Make Home Pleas

May Do to Make Home Tolerable."
