to protests against the practices

damage the town and trample the

ruthlessly under foot.

COL. TOWNSEND FOR AUDITOR


Il was generally understood in
the Republican State Convention
that nominated the late Theodore
r. Clark for State Auditor, that
he was q dying man and that the
Conventions action in naming.
him q second time, was in the
nature of a compliment merely.
Consequently the delegates au-
thorized the State Central Com.
mittee to fill the vacancy in the
event of his death, and it was the
understanding Of the members
of the convention generally, that
the Central Committee would ten.
der that honor to Col. Theodore
Townsend, editor Of the Milford
Chronicle, who was the unanimous
choice of the Kent county dele
gates. It is universally conceded
that Kent county is entitled to a
place on the ticket. The Central
Committee would no doubt have
kept faith with the convention
by appointing Col. Townsend,
but that it was discovered that in
the new constitution, under the
provisions Of Sec. 9 of Article III
the appointment for all such va.
cancies occurring within two
months before election was
lodged in the hands Of the COVER
nor. Inasmuch as Governor
Pennewill was in the convention
as q delegate from Kent county,
and voted for Mr.. Clark with the
above understanding, he will no
doubt carry out the wishes Of the
delegates, himself included, by
appointing Col. Townsend to fill
the vacancy in the authorship
caused by the death Of Mr..
Clark.
Mr.. Clark made an excellent
record as auditor, and The TRAN.
SCRIPT intends no disparagement
Of him in saying that Col. Town.
sends name would have greatly |
strengthened the entire ticket.
However, his selection by the
Governor is one that will not only |
bring credit to the Republican
administration, and incidentally
aid the ticket in the coming cleo
ton by eliciting the warmest sup.
port of his Kent county friends,
who are legion, but one that will
also rebound to the profit of all
the citizens of the State. Col.
Townsend is a gentleman of fine
parts Intellectually, morally and
physically, and is justly held in
high estimation all over the State
where he is as widely as favor.

as q gentleman.
