AN OPEN LETTER
To Sussex County temperance
Voters.
TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN
Permit US to publish in no
uncertain tones
A WARMING

to every Sussex County Temper
ance Voter. The Delaware liquor
interests, strongly federated, ex-
ceedingly vindictive, are looking
with envious eyes upon Sussex
County. They want Resu5missiou
for that County and they expect to
get it from the next Legislature.
This is no idle dream, especially
when it is remembered that Resub-
mission for Sussex County was de-
feated in the Legislature of 1909 by
tie narrow margin of but one vote,
or at best two votes. Liquor plans
are already carefully laid; liquor
agents are busy now in every Rep
resentative and Senatorial District.
There are three Senators and ten
Representatives to be chosen this
year in the County, and the vets
expect to elect a majority of them.
