part of the newspapers The Democrats proclaim
that the management Of the Sussex Levy Court
is extravagant and the Republicans retort the
same about Kent county. But would Democratic
control of Sussex be of more advantage 10 the tax
payers, and did the Democrats when in power ad-
minister the affairs Of the county any better than
the Republicans have done? The Journal believes
there will be no sound and economical govern

who arc not directly allied with politics, make up
their minds that county government is not solely
a method of providing jobs for various persons.

tax payer or voter in either county is much con-

government If the voters we're they surely would
not have tolerated the system Of caring for the
county roads that has so long prevailed in both
