THE raids on those who have
been selling illegally liquor in the
neighboring towns of Delaware,
which have been made recently,
has caused many of the offenders
at such places, where the halter of
law has been drawn around them,
to skip out, and Milford has looked
good to them ever since. As a re-
suit of this influx of lawbreakers,
Milford has been infested with sew
eral disgraceful joints, and the sight
of half drunken men is occasionally
witnessed in the neighborhood of
where the illegal sellers are located.
The old habitual drunkard Of
former years, soon locates the
source for his supply, and by fol-
lowing this class it is not hard to
locate the sellers of liquor illegally.
The Law and Order Society, of
could find no more oppor-
.une time to make a raid on these
people than the present.

money to the grower. Wheat was
far beyond the average in quality
and quantity while generally speak
ing, the corn crop will be the larg-
est harvested in several years. This
part of the Delaware and Maryland
peninsula will not have so much
loose cash to jingle in their pock-
cts this winter, but the farmers are
in no financial trouble to keep them
worrying Of nights. When the wo.
men commence to send their poul-
try to market this fall, then will
much Of the real profit from the
farms of Delaware be realized.

LINCOLN CITY NOTES.

The Lincoln public schools reopeneC

get the advantage of harmonious and
earnest school.

in New York State, near Hornellsville,
N. Y, Henry Cook has returned. He
tells about killing frosts at that place last
week, but Henry is wearing his Panama
hat just the same.
For the first time in forty years, Mrs
John Ahab Clendaniel visited friends in
Lincoln, Delaware, this week. Although
she has resided as near as Ellendale to
her friends in and about Lincoln, she has
remained at her home for no reason other
than an inclination to stay home. She
is 70 years old on September 2Oth, 1911,
and is enjoying fine health.
Tomatoes are coming to the cannery
freely this week but the bulk of the crop
will be harvested with this weeks pick
ing. and farmers will plow up the fields
for wheat. From two to three car loads
each day have been shipped from here,
and the price this week has been averag-
ing twenty cents per basket.

near Lincoln, this week, when their
daughter, Miss Allena Oneita Truitt be-
came the bride of William ]. Lindale,
who resides near this town. The cere-
nony took place at eight O'Clock in the
oarlor, and as the wedding party de-
icended the stairs Mendelsohn's we'd

cousin of the groom. The
decorations of the house were ferns and
oses, with crepe paper ornaments at
'ach corner Of the rooms, while foral
'ell hung over the contracting parties. /

iadng. The attendants were Miss Emma
carpenter and Mr.. Freeman Bennett,

and the wedding gown was light blue
satin trimmed with lace and bead trim
mings, while the ornaments worn was a
handsome pearl necklace. A wedding
supper was served after the ceremony
in beautifully trimmed dining room, at
which about one hundred persons were
served. The presents were numerous,
useful and handsome, and consisted of
cut glass, silverware and linens. They
will reside on a farm near Ellendale,
where the groom is engaged in farming.
Right now farmers are Just rushing
their fall work, and getting ready for
sowing wheat about the first of October
Lincoln certainly hopes that the new
boulevard will not be driven several
miles to the west OF us; it will be bad
enough to have it even a half mile dis
tant. We sure do need real good road,
and then the county will probably build
roads leading east and west to connect
with the great modern highway running
from the north to the south end of Del
aware.

along the boulevard. Every man
in Cedar Greek hundred IS directly
interested in this great public i'm
provement, and should get after
this particular route by talking,
by encouraging and by spreading
the advantages Of the bitulithic
roadway through the lands Of this
district.
Milford chronicle., 1911-09-22

IT seems that the cold fact OF
road matters never make impress
sion on the men placed in charge of
them, or those who are response
bic for appointmeut Of these in
dividuals, and each heavy rainfall
demonstrates the facts until it
would seem that even the most
obtuse mind would absorb the lesson
as to what is needed in men who
have charge OF the public highways.
The general conditions are always
the same viz the so-called super
visor is either too busy or can not
get assistance to repair damages to
the roads. Here is the real trouble
after all and the cause for the bad
condition of the public roads. If
one man were made responsible for
the roads of an entire representative
district, and be compelled to main
tain a corps of men to do the repair
work at all times, then the split-log
drags would be used after each rain
the washouts would be repaired
promptly, and the cost to the tax
payers would beless than the waste
ful and irresponsible methods of
the present day. The roads of
lower Delaware which have been
improved in the past few years and |
made better in localities, have been
set back by the storms of August |
TO their former condition, in many |
localities. The only way to get
permanent roads will be to bond !
each county for one million dollars,
then appOrtion one hundred thous-
and dollars to each representative
district, and have a competent road
engineer make the plans for doing
the work ,and have it done in prac-
teal and systematic manner. The
next legislature should enact the
avs necessary for this great public
benefit.

800 49, "a AC~AAA " a - ~ 4 EaAAA<N4s
IN the days when there were two
distinct Republican party organiza-
tions in Delaware, there were those
who reaped rich harvests from the
political conditions which then pre-
vailed, and the effort to now bring
about a so-called Progressive"
Republican Party organization has
its birth with the same people, who
so long kept the Republicans of
Delaware from bringing all into
one organized party working for
the success Of republican princi-
Piles. Should by any twist this con-
dition of affairs be again brought
into existence, then the organizers
of the party would be in precisely
the'same position to dictate nomi-
nations that prevailed for twelve
years, when the Union Republican
Party and the Regular Republican
Party went through the farce of
holding conventions, and at the
end Of such meetings delegated the
power to the State Committee to
ELL all vacancies" caused by resig-
nation, etc. This little Joke robbed |
the people ofthe power to nominate
men to fill Offices, and placed it
INTO the hands of the dozen men
composing the State Committee of
zach of the two organizations. In
olain words, these men could cause
he nominee of the conventions to
.ither get off the ticket, or be de-
eated, and they would then agree
md appOrtiOn among themselves,
II their friends who aided and sup
,orted them, all the Offices from s
Governor to the end Of the State
icket. This is the real annimus
f those who are now endeavoring .
o organize the second party in I
Delaware, and all protestation that d
motives are back of their
oings, are simply made for the 5
urpose of binding the public to
heir real purpose. Beware of the f
lily tongued seducer, for in the a
lngusge of the late Rev. Johna-
nan S. Willis, when he spoke be- r
,re the National Committee in
Philadelphia, those who would !,
ring about this undesirable con- ],
itiOn of political affairs, "have
one a whOreing after strange !
DDS. D." The people of Sussex and
.ent counties have sufficient ex-
erience with two Republican Party
-ganizations, and will be satisfied =
18th present conditions.
