THOMAS MONAGHAN who was
nominated for governor last Tues
day by the Democratic party of
Delaware, is a strong, clean and
reliable man, and his word is not
to be questioned.
Milford chronicle., 1912-09-13

THE election last Tuesday in
Maine was a clean sweep for the
Republicans and it shows what will
result where the party is united
and working for real success. The
Regular and Progressive republi-
cans worked unitedly for the sue
cess Of their ticket so far as it af-
fected state and county matters,
with the result that they have re-
claimed Maine and elected three of
the four congressman, as we'll as
an overwhelming majority in the
legislature. which assures the cleo
ton. Of a United States Senator
What was done in Maine, can be ac-
complished in Delaware, and we
fully believe that the people of the
State Of Delaware, do not desire to
turn the state and county govern
ment over to the Democrats, and
for that reason will not blindly fol-
low the efforts of the few Progress
sives in Delaware who desire foI
personal reasons to defeat the state
ticket and turn the counties over
TO democratic management.

THERE seems to be bitter feeling
among thepeople who were engaged
in selling the "near beer and
malt-hop" beverages in Milford
over the unanimous action Of every
member Of Milford s Town Council,
in adopting laws which have effect
lively stopped the sale Of these liq-
uors. 1t is generally understood
that the real offenders have never
been known to the public, but that
is at least one case, those who
operated the joints which gave the
trouble and produced the drunk
and disorderly elements, were only
agents for the man backing them.
Each member of Council in Milford
expressed positive opinions as to
the undesirability of the places, and
adopted the laws which have
worked with satisfaction ever since
they went into effect If the law
abiding people of Milford desires to |
have a 're-call" on the law, we
would suggest to those who are
an outcry against having
their privileges for making living
taken from them, get signers to

ed to have been spirited away by

nation tended to show that Mr.. Dar-
