II XrREME care should be exercised by those Della
IL ware voters who desire to vote for the Roosevelt
electors and at the time prevent the state ta-
ing into the hands OF the Salisbury Democratic ma
chine The reason that extreme care is necessary is
that the real friends Of Colonel Roosevelt IN Deia-
ware are unable to the Bullmoose as their emblem
on the official ballot That is due to the fact that
when j. Frank Alice. Robert G. Houston Lewis A.
Drexer and their associates in the sucker Progress

National Progressive movement to wreck the Repub-
ncan party in Delaware and deliver our State and its
people 30 the Democratic machine they pre-empted the

ON the official ballot That made it necessary for the
real National Progressves who desire TO elect Roose

some other emblem. They adopted the Scales of Jus

that the following emblem will be found at the head

GOOD WORK
BY F|REMEN

Fire broke out in the Office of Stew
ems Livery Stable early last Monday
morning. 1t was discovered about
2.3O a. m. by George Taylor, who
sent in the alarm.
When the firemen arrived they
found the roof of the office ablaze,
and lent every effort to keep the
flames from reaching the main barn,
where tons of hay, carriages and
many valuable horses are kept.
They ultimately were successful,
after pouring tons of water into the
building.
They were badly handicapped by
the wind, which was blowing gale.
The temperature was near zero
which caused much suffering among
the firemen one of them especially,
who had left the house without either
gloves, mittens or any other gar
ments to protect him from the bitter
wind.
After an hours hard work the
fire was finally controlled.
Damage was estimated as several
hundred dollars to the building and
about $50 would cover Stevens loss.
An overheated chimney is supposed
to have been the cause.
Much praise has been heard as to
the able way by which this fire was
handled and Island Pond should feel
proud of her volunteer fire fighters
who so willingly and promptly hasten
to all alarms in all kinds of weather.
