A Blot On Newark

The number of cases of typhoid
fever which have broken out among
the students OF Delaware College,
Newark recently, and which now
seems to touch Smyrna, is matter
of deep and serious concern and one
which will bear the most careful inves-
tisation ii the college is to draw stud
ents from down the State. Strange
to say that with system OF pure
drinking water and with climate pc
culiarly healthful the town is without
a sewerage system and waste water
AMI Fl hth are drained into cess pools.
Maybe if the college authorities would
look into this matter they might find {;
cause, no matter how careful the sinks
are laid. 1t would he well for the
town and the college to bring about
the introduction OF a proper sewerage
system in Newark ior the safety Of not
oniy the people who live there. bu

from all p&rtS of the State

concerning the party's stand on the

with emphasis =" Keep it out Of our
platforms this question has yexed both
parties for years. | say drop it; ii the
Prohibitionists want to keep up agita-
ton on it let them; but don't let them
dictate to the Democratic party"
Now this is just along the line OF
and accords with the suggestions we
have time to time made to the Demo-
cratic managers Of Delaware and this
county in particular. We have CON
tended that the Prohibition party is a
political combination with policies of
its own, and that a Democratic plat
form OF Democratic policies and prin-
ciples is broad enough for any candi-
date to stand on.
And in saying this we believe we
voice the sentiment of nine-tenths OF
the Democrats oi Sussex county.

The Reason

The car is amazingly simple.
Three of the models operate by
pedal control. Push pedal for
ward to go ahead, and backward
to reverse. Push another pedal
foreward to get on high speed
It is as simple as walking. A 10.
year-old child can master the car
in ten minutes.
The Overland has less parts
than any other highgrade car
One invention alone does away

most trouble-proof.

A western professor has figured
out that an inch of rain means $50
barrels of water to an acre of land,
$50, 400 barrels to a section, and 10,
$4,000 barrels of water to a town.

have had shortage of about ! inches
of rain thus far in 1910 at this point,
and applies the above figures, he
finds that each acre is short of mois-
ture to the extent of 1920 barrels,
each section has had 3,852,8OO bar
rels of water less than the average
for thirty years; each township is
1873, $4,000 barrels short, while the
shortage of precipitation since jan
uary for the county amounts to
4,16O,O94,OOO barrels. Is it any

hours. The MackinaW was entirely
surrounded by ice from July to July
10 and made slow progress forcing it's
way through riffs and flaws in the
field. In some places the ice was
piled eighty feet high. At the en-
trance to Kotzebue sound the ships
way was blocked by a solid wall of ice
and much time was lost waiting for
passage to open. Little diff Guilty was
experienced on the southbound trip.

THE NOMINEE AND THE PLATFORM.

Monday the republicans of Santa Cruz county, in convention reg ularly called and duly assembled, presented as their nominee for delegate to the constitutional con- vention Mir. Bracey Curtis of Noga- les. In presenting their candidate for the high honor and mission of representing the people of Santa Cruz county in framing a funda- mental law for the government of the great and sovereign state of Ari- zona, the republicans of the county have done so with an exalted as- piration to put forward a man who in every sense would be represen- tative of the best and highest ideals in American civil and business life; and in selection of Mir. Curtis they feel that they have reached the full measure of their lofty am bition.
 Mr. Curtis is a gentleman with a we'll trained mind, having received a broad and liberal education, and he is possessed of wide and ex- tended experience in business af- fairs. He had operated very suc- cessfully in Arizona and Sonora mines a number of years before embarking in the banking business in the line city some six or eight years ago; and in his conduct oi the affairs of the First National Bank, of which he has been cashier through all the time mentioned, he has shown himself a broad guaged conservative business man, without narrowness, and upon adequate oc. casion decidedly liberal.
 In presenting MT. Curtis as their chosen standard bearer in the very important constitutional election campaign now inaugurated the re. publicans of Santa Cruz county have only adopted a method that has prevailed in selection of delegates to constitutional conventions in al the states. Taking up any of tho constitutions of any of the states

another and thorough scrutiny, by another and different body of men and with somss sArre'nn sAffgnt modification '' reported to the convention and adopted by rising vote.
 The opponents of the system of popular government to which the republican party of Santa Cruz county is solemnly committed. cannot dismiss the movement by declaring it the work of dema. gogues ard slick politicians-as some of the opposition press seem prone. It is rising tide that can.
 not be staid. To the charge that the popular system of government is supported by demagogues and slick politicians only the ready re-
 ply is that the men most promin- ent in it's advocacy in Santa Cruz county have never been chased in
 either category. No one has ever
 credited Mir. Titcomb, of the exten-
 sive mercantile and manufacturing
 house of Roy & Titcomb, Inc, of
 being demagogue or slick polti.
 clan; Bracey Curtis, the nominee,
 is in no sense whatever a demago-
 que nor slick politician; neither is Doctor V. A. Sneaker. Neither can any one of score or more of gentlemen, who may be named, such as Schuyler Case, E. K. Cum ming, A. s. Noon and k. J. Pelle- grin, who bore a prominent part } in the meetings of the Young Mems Republican Club, which evolved, adopted and promulgated 3 those resolutions. The men named, ! and fifty or sixty more who joined with them are business men, pro- { fessional men and mechanics given to a faithful discharge of the every : day duties of life. They are also f thoughtful men, who, when they 1. do bend their minds to public l affairs, give the same serious thoughtful attention to principles y and policies that they do to their S own business. It is such men as those named in this paragraph !. who committed the republican |, party of Santa Cruz county to the : popular system of government e They are the kind of men who 0 come to the front always in the re- 2 publican party when great issues l. arise, give their party the right r steer and push it along in the IT right way. It is such men who ]. made the republican party pro- r. gressive and will keep it 80. Ana y the republican party is the pro, e gressive party because its rank ano n file is made up of such men who It get in and shape the policy ot the n party whenever there arises a neeo d to do so. To their will politicians r. and party leaders must bend or e sink.
