SHOCK FOR THE
DRY ADVOCATES
Superintendent ArterS Says
Fresh Campaign Against
Saloon is Already On
COUNTY RETURNS BIG
MAJORITY FOR LICENSE

Are we going ahead with the tom
perance campaign? Certainly. The
campaign stopped just long enough
for us to get some sleep last night,
but the campaign for the next local op-
tion vote began with daylight this
morning" This was the Rev. John
NJ. Arters comment this morning on
the result Of the wet and dry"
campaign in rural New Castle county.
Mr. Arters said further. that while
the temperance forces were indeed
surprised, the anti-saloon forces were
not in the least discouraged, but were
taking the wet" situation quite calm
ly. The Anti-Saloon League estimates
the 'wet" majority at 700. They at
tribute the majority. among many
other reasons, to the heavy registra-
tion in the county this year. the regis
traton figures being far ahead Of
three years ago.
AS a matter of encouragement to the
Anti-Saloon forces the number of
votes cast in favor of local option was
much greater than three years ago, in
nearly every precinct
According to Mr.. Arters, the league
finds further encouragement in the
news that Cecil county, Md. has gone
dry by a 904 majority
The Anti-Saloon League will work
now to have the local option question
re-submitted in rural New Castle
county at the election two years hence.
There was much activity I'm the
rural districts during the day for and
against license At New Castle school
children sang in behalf of the no.
license cause, while in other districts
well-known temperance men were un-
usually busy at the polls The Rev.
John NJ. Arters. superintendent of the
Anu-Sal0on League, of Delaware, was
everywhere throughout the county
while the voting was in progress.
The lower districts of Christians
hundred were the first to announc,
wet majorites. Brandywine hundred
which three years ago voted dry
rolled up a wet" majority of SO. mucl
to the surprise OF the temperanc
forces.

WILL UNITE
THE FACTIONS
Republican Chairman Mckinley
Not Surprised by the
Result
MANY REPUBLICANS
DID NOT SO TO POLLS

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
CHICAGO. H.. Nov. 9--Blaming the
rout Of the Republican party to bitter
ness in its own organization but pre-
dieting success for 1912, William B.
Mckinley, chairman of the Republi-
can National Congressional Commit
tee to-day gave out the following
statement:
when it is considered that barely
two-thirds of the Republican vote in
the middle western States went 20
the polls and the further fact that
factional differences had aroused an
unusual degree of bitterness among
the Republicans, the result is not sur
prising.
"The revision of the tariff has al
ways proved disturbing element in
politics, and this year was no ex-
ception. Judging by the light VOTE
the Republicans had the same expert
ence as in 1892. two years after the
passing Of the Mckinley bill
1T is my opinion that two years
from now after it shall have been
demonstrated that the present tariff
bill is beneficial to the country, the
same conditions will prevail as I'm
1894, when the Republicans swept the
country After the Democratic Will
son bill had become law, the distress
in the country was so widespread
that the people returned the Re
publican party to power by tremen-
dous majority.
1T is my opinion that this defea,
will wipe out all factional differences.
There can be no question in my mind
that. the American people in 1912 Will
give TO the patient. patriotic man in
the White House a substantial en-
dorsement for the wise administration
he has giver them"

ZION JUBILEE.

Last Sunday the congregation and
friends of Zion Baptist Church wit
messed the BURNING of the mortgage.
1t can be recalled that in 1906 the
church bought the six lots on the cor
ner of goth and Arapahoe streets for
$11 100000, giving a mortgage for $1,000
to run for five years with interest, of
which sum about $4,000 had been paid
before the present pastor took charge.
Last year the church called the Rev.
David E. Over to the pastorate of the
church. He went to work with vim
and in less than two years over $4,000
has been raised and the property is
now clear of debt. At the 3 o'clock
service the pastors and congregation
of the various churches attended and
rejoiced with Zion and her pastor in
ner final and successful rally. The
burning of the mortgage in such
short period reflects great credit on the
pastor, Rev. d. E. Over, his officers
and members for the business manner
in which they appealed to their friends
and the public, the congregation and
the community should be proud to
learn that at a conservative estimate
made by real estate men, lions lots
are valued at $4,000. 1t is useless to
say that singing of the real Christmas
song. How did my heart rejoice to
hear my friend devoutly say, come, let
us to Zion CO., etc. The pastor has
kept his faith with the congregation
thus far. Now, dear people. let him
finish his course.
