responding to these wishes and
throwing his support to the peo-
pies choice. Such action would
not be a defeat but IA display of
true Republicanism.
This is not New Castle county
contest; it is Statewide. In fact,
from a political standpoint the
ticket should be composed Of the
strongest men rather than county
representation.
County rotation, personal pref
erences, and party debts should all
give way to the naming Of the
strongest possible ticket. Let no
name be put on the ticket branded
as any one mans or county S
choice. nor refuse the considera-
ton Of any districts s claim. Never
was there a stronger and we could
well say sterner demand for men
in politics. Men associated close
ly perhaps with party management
and policy, but men who have the
interest of the voter in mind as
well as individual success. We
want men who can appeal to the
Judgment of the voter as well as
the mere support Of the party S
organization.
The fight seems to center around
the Congressional nomination and
only by naming a candidate of
considerable force can Republican
success be assured.

dependence II placed by populists in the
