COAGE URGES NEGROES
TO VOTE STRAIGHT TICKET

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL;
Sir-Through the columns of your
valuable daily medium permit me to
say 10 the colored voters OF Whining
ton a word ON the outlook throughout
our state In the lower counties Of Del
aware The sign is good for an cid time
Republican landslide The men have
registered and are qualifying to
stamp the old eagle hard on Novem-
ber q
The Democrats have been tamper-
ing with the colored vote AZ usual
but to no avail rhe school houses
and churches arc nightly opened for
Instruction of these men. and II is
surprising 10 see old men vielng with
the younger ones In this campaign
The workers are assiduously laboring
for the old party and I have no doubt
that the managers will be amply re-
paid by Loyalty of these voters on
election day.
For fear of unintentional mistake
have ondeavorod TO have each voter
mark the Republican straight ticket
thereby avoiding any ballot being
thrown out In trying TO cut the tick
III oftimes excitement prevails and a
loss of ballot Is the result There
may be on Rny ticket one or two nom
ineos thai voter hates TO approve,
but as such nominee is tho choice of
ihe party al the primary or c0nren-
iion Of the party, and as the party 'e
larger than eny one man or Ret of
men. Il hchooves the voter to east the
whole ticket for tho cid party,
Al every meeting we have had q
irort OF experience meeting OF all
present and tho general consensus Of
upinien n that prosperity should not

During President TRft'p RdmlniHtrp-

Praft we have accomplishments, aud
I'm Wilson much promise. TAFT con-
flnuod means prosperity, Wilson win
ning, spells advcrsity, From the old
Republican party we get tho sub
stance; from the Democratic party
we behold the shadow.
The colored voters OF the State have
decided to vote to a man the old eagle
of Republican protection. No other
emblem looks 80 good at this time.
Last night we organized the young
mon OF the sixth ward with the as
ristanco OF Committeeman Charles H.
Colhun and Edgar Startling These
young men. some Of whom Will cast
their frst ballot nre-enthusiastlc for
she fight. About fifty men were pres
ont al this meet and the speakers inn
pressed the boys that no other party
could serve the people as the grand
old party. It Is safe to predict that
each one Of these young men will
early on November g, vote for Tart
and the whole Republican ticket.
Under tho direction Of Chairman
Tdmund MITCHELL I am making an
other tour OF southern Delaware this
week.
Thanking you for the above space
] have the honor 70 remain.
Yours for the party.

To tho Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL:
Sir.-Your editorial in last Thurs
DAVIS issue has just come TO my
notice. and / am sure you will be
elad to have some additional light on
the matter. In that editorial, you
ask Senator Monaghan and Mr..
chauncey p. Holcomb to explain why
an 1908. they voted against certain
State Sanatorium for Consumptives
Bill, and you say:
"In these days OF such widespread
nctivity against the White Plague.
voters may question the wisdom of
olecting to Office two men, who. In
1903. manifest such lack of sympathy
with the State Sanatorium proposi-
tion"
The Delaware Anti-Tuberculosis
Society. OF which ! have the honor
TO be President, has never been in
politics. lt is an absolutely nom
partizan organization May call
sour attention 30 the fact that Sena-
tor Monaghan is one Of it's Directors,
and very useful and valuable one.

1iher? am sure YOU would not wish
80 accuse one, any more than the
other. of being an enemy 20 the cause
which they actually represent

The most important farm products Of
the county are alfalfa and sugar-beets.
So great is the yield Of alfalfa that four
afalfa-meal mills have been established
in the county along the sugar road. "
These are at Hartman, Bristol, Kornman,
and Wiley, and they manufacture about
10000 tons, annually. They receive the
hay loose, paying from s. to $40 per ton
for it. Baled hay brings 81 more, but
this is for shipment independently of the
mills. At the mills, the estimate of yield
is three tons per acre, and the average
price paid per ton is 50. Some farmers
get four or four and one-haH tons. Farm
ess who ship, or who sell to local dealers,
take the run Of the market. In the winter
Of 19ll-12, the price reached SIS, and
held at that until the spring crop came in
Some farmers feed their alfalfa to live
stock. It is desirable, especially, for
pasture for lambs. G. W. Sherman,
