THE sentiment expressed in an
editorial in the Sentinel of last Sat
urday, should be the aim and de-
sire of every republican in Della
ware. 1t says:
Republican supremacy in State
affairs has lifted Delaware from a
slough Of contemplate, liberty
abridging, poverty breeding politics.
Lifted into the line of National
power and progress, Delaware is re-
gaining her lost prestige. No
longer in rebellion against, or alien
to the nation, with patriotism in
spring and wisdom guiding, the
State will resume her old place as
the diamond in the crown of liberty.
We want a State Of which its citi-
zens may justly be proud ; tired of
Boosting ancient history, of boast
ing of men dead and gone, we want
State whose present conditions
warrant State pride; whose repu-
.ation, nationwide, will insure re-
spect for the man, woman or child
that claims Delaware as birthplace
or home.
We are getting there, The up
lift of decade has been great. The
prospect is for an equal, or even
greater uplift in the next decade
nuder Republican administration.
