HOW SUCCESS CAME TO BIG FIRM
Record of Miller Bros. Co.. Shows
What Energy and Reliability Will
DO in Mercantile World.

It has become a habit among house
holders to trade at 213 Market street
and PIP Shpley street, where the Miller
Bros. Co., are perpetuating the name
of the Boston Clothing House, known
to shoppers in Wilmington for a gem
GRAFTON. This city may point with
pride to the growth Of many Of its
business houses and none are more
conspicuous than Miller Bros. co. 1t
was I'm 1901 that these three brothers,
Nathan, Charles and Samuel engaged
in the furniture and furnishing
business at COS West Second street.
They began with small capital but with
much energy and a clear business
foresight known as Miller Bros. they
studied the wants Of the trade and
soon established themselves on sound
basis, adding to their means and vim
ming a good name for reliability
In 1908 the firm had grown so that
it was deemed advisable to seek
larger quarters They moved to the
present location 213 Market street
with a rear entrance at PIP Shin ev
trect. The increase OF business at
the new location exceeded their own
expectations and in 1905 more capita
was added the business was incor-
porated under the name ~ Miller Bros.
Co, and a larger campaign inaugurated
to build a splepdid and permanent
business. Throughout the recent holi-
day season and at present this con-
cern is doing the largest business in
its history The officers Of the COM
pany state that they have the fullest
confidence In the business conditions
locally and expect 1908 to prove their
banner year.
Miller Bros. Co com nete with the
best houses OF Philadelphia for their
trade extends to Chester and through
Delaware and Chester counties in
Pennsylvania. Thew are snecially proud
OF the prompt delivery service in ef-
feet at their store and It is indeed a
matter Of comment that their patrons
get splendid service In that direction
At present this comnany is conduct
ing a February sale in which they an
nounce reductions 20 - to 33 ner cent
and fh~'- reputation for handling ex-
cellent goods commends this sale to
prospective customers.

DELAWARE IS REPUBLICAN.

II vFRY once in a while some OF our Demo
IL cratic friends fancy that the Republican
narav in Delaware is going to smashLthat II can
not last much longer and that il will surely be
defeated AT the next election. These fancies usu-
allv occur some time before an election AS dl
election approaches the hopes OF the Democrats
fade a,yav On the eve of an election they nave
vanished At this time, when the election Is
some distance off the fancies crop out now ana
tben. There is really little basis for them.
Delaware Judging by the elections during the
last decade is firmly within the Republican ranks
Only stupid leadership or great cnange
in the polices of the parties could swerve Della
ware from the Republican column. Here ana
there are reports of differences within the party
ranks. OF course there are differences OF opin-
ions and many candidates for nominations with
in the eift of the party. But this does not mean
that the party is to be wrecked-to so to smash
and permit an easy Democratic victory some
Democrats but we believe they are few may en-
tertain this notion They will learn their mistake
as the campaign draws near.
It should be remembered that the party during
manv years before the senators were chosen, was
torn by factional dscord. But if the party could
pull itself together it did then, does anyone
imagine that now, when there are no serious dis
turbances, as during the Addcks campaigns, the
party will suddenly go to piecesP
Some may forget the story the figures tell OF
elections in recent years in Delaware. President
Roosevelt carried the State by more than 1000
majority. Considering the size of the vote that
was a very large majority.
When Delaware was considered rock-ribbed for
Democracy, its majority did not mount to those
figures The State of Pennsylvania for instance,
has more than thirty times the population of
Delaware On the basis of the Delaware major
ity if Delaware had a population large as
Pennsylvania the majority would be at least
10000 These figures show how staunchly
Delaware is Republican.
1t would be we'll to ponder over Delaware's
Republican majority according to her population,
when you hear talk about the party's going down
to certain defeat and disruption
