A CHANCE FOR FARMERS

The Ritter Company is an in
dustry worthy of more than pas
sing note. Locating here few
years ago, they have now the con-
tidence of the farmers of this vici-
nifty. They asked for none of the
usual bonus, but presented their
proposition in business terms.
Their prices have always been
little higher than those paid be-
fore. Their dealings with the
farmer have been satisfactory.
Now this season they come with
a $1,000 per ton proposition for
tomatoes and ask for increased
acreage. The local quality meets
their requirements. In addition,
they are planning for an increas-
ed capacity. 1t is hoped that the
farmers will consider this. For
aside from the prices offered, we
must remember the Ritter people
are more than the transient can
ming factory. They are National
in advertising, in output and in
reputation. Their plant here re-
presents the last word in Sanitary
appliances.
Best of all is the spirit of COOP
Grafton of Mr.. Ritter himself. He
recognises what the farmer is up
against. He realizes the crop
failures, due to weather condi-
tions, during the past two years.
Every bit of advice for increased
crop, better quality, is at the
farmers command. Of course this
is to his interest too. But the
mutual cooperation has his seri-
Gus attention. He sees and recog-
Misses both parties of the contract.
Note in another column the pro-
posed additions to the plant. It
looks good to us. A chance for
another money crop is presented
It's worth investigation.

ton prompted us to ask ques-
ton or so. Quick as flash he
met us. Explained, entirely to
his satisfaction,-and ours.
We caught the CLEAN of success
in his eye as he handed us his
Waterman and said, eyes, very
true. You have the idea exactly.
Sign here, please" We hesitated,
thanked him, not-today. The ink
dropped from the pen. We refused.
THEREAFTER he understood how
we spelled Decision, he lit into
us. We listened in ecstasy. His
Interpretation was so radically
different from compliments usu-
ally received. AS near as we can
recall, he called us all the narrow
minded, hog-bound, rural-rub2,
old-fashioned, dyed-in-the-w wool
conservatists, he had ever seen.
Up one side and down the other,
while we sat enchanted. He judg-
ed us religiously as a hard shell,
politically as a stand pat, socially
fogy, in business a ground hog,
afraid of his shadow.
And here, we had been consid-
ering ourselves a live wire, known
locally so radical that we were
public nuisance.
After his peroration, we ex-
pressed our appreciation, opened
the desk, got out left over last
campaign cigar and sent him on
his way. We almost regret not
signing up. His flattery, if he
had only realized it, came near
landing us.

ISSUES OF THE CAMPAIGN

Never since the COS has the ma
ton needed the careful thought of
it's citizens, as today, as we enter
the present campaign. Tariff,
Trust Legislation, Money Stand
ards, Imperialism, issues of re-
cent campaigns, resolve them
selves into small party differ
ences, beside the issue today.
Without any carping criticism of
the present administration, this
campaign is going to bring out
very definitely two facts-What is
Americanism, and what is the
policy of this government in it's
relation to foreign nations. These
will not only be brought out as
the platform but they will be
stated so definitely that no citi-
zen or no nation will fail to inter
pref them.
Today as we enter the campaign
the most loyal supporter of the
present Administration, could not
in clearcut American English,
state our policy toward the
worlds nations. A statement
made today from official sources,
is contradicted tomorrow by Off
cial action. Policies may change
with the times, it is true, but not
with senility. American words
and American action must agree,
OF our Declaration, our Constitu
ton, our virility of citizenship
have lost their potency.
Until recently "Americanism"
was a word of no uncertain mean
ing, one of pride at home and re
spected abroad. Today, new
reckoning is called for. Nor are
we over serious when we say it is
more than campaign cry. We
must either rededicate ourselves
to the work of those who formu-
lated our policy, or we must
break away. One or the other.
Americanism means something.
Just what? is the issue.
No, nor must we conclude, that
we have no part in it. No citizen
is so humble that the country does
not need his serious and best
thought and best vote to decide
what this country means, and
what it is striving to become.

RURAL NEW CASTLE In CONVEN
TON

In the Republican Convention
held at Dover yesterday, we are
interested primarily in the action
of Rural New Castle. The senti-
ment of the Republican party in
Rural New Castle was and is de-
cidedly favorable to Senator du
Pont. Stranger than that, the
selection made yesterday is in no
wise representative of these rural
hundreds. The action showed
very clearly one of two things
either a sad lack Of organization
among the rural districts, or that
the delegates used this method to
express their disapproval of those
higher up in party councils. So
far as Rural New Castle is con-
cerned, the action of the Conven-
ton yesterday dts 49, $3.50. $500 ~
the sentiments of the party rank
and file. There is dissatisfaction
IN many quarters but not with
Senator du Pont as the object of
attack, nor was his defeat yester-
day such an expression. So far
as we can learn, it was decidedly
the opposite.

WILMINGTON CONTEST

With the Wilmington part of
the contest at yesterdays conven-
ton, Rural New Castle has moth
ing to do, so long as it does not
/ n ter ere with party victory
throughout the State. So far as
we can learn, the issue was not
one of party differences, but per-
sonal. To our mind the outcome
only cleared the atmosphere for
the future point of attack. Voters
Will serve we'll to take a very &C.

also in party councils very early

sue Of last week that it is the duty
of Newark-its citizens and gov
CT nment-to awaken to it's respon-
sibitities attendant on the new de-
velopment of Delaware College by
making itself a model, "spotless"
town is an eminently wise and
timely one, and should spur us to
the performance of our manifest
duty in respect to physical i'm
provements, such as the freshen-
ing up of private property with
paint and white wash, the beauti-
flying of waste places with flowers
and shrubbery, and the removal
of unsightly piles Of dirt and rub
bish.
One of the crying needs Of the
Gown is better sidewalks. Within
the last three years many sewer
connections have left the pave
ments in deplorable condition
full of depressions and holes so
that at night the walking is dis
tinctly dangerous. The College
has until the last week been one of
the worst offenders in this respect.
But there are yet scores of places
in the Main Street sidewalks that
need attention. Council has been
very lenient with property own
ers who have been derelict in re-
pairing their pavements. The
question arises now: Has it not
been too lenient? Nothing is so
likely to impress strangers I'M
favorably as unkept sidewalks
full of holes and puddles of water.
Our new Main Street roadway
is the best of any town in the
state. Why should our side
walks be the worst?

refrain from making public your

And this time was when the
prisons were opened. Not in

resurrection from the dead. For
Chri st said that He was sent to

Christ Preached to the
Spirits in Prison.

After we have taken back
ward glimpse Of that portion of
Christ's Mission on earth
which was the Binding of the
eyes Of the Jews, and the Bring
ing of Judgment to the Genties
With these facts before us,
and compromising by this. the
great links being fastened to-
gether into the Grand Old Chain
of the Word of God. with the
Two Men Theory. By this we
proceed to take up another very
important point, as our Heading
will show.
Christ preached to the
Spirits in Prison. Where did
He do this? Aud when did He
do this? This is the great prob
lem to be solved. For it is
taught that Christ went by
Noah, and preached to those
spirits. But we, in regard to-
this, like many other saying of
men, do not believe word of it.
And the reason why we do
not is. that God in His Word.
have taught US quite different.
And for the beginning of this
proof, we shall quote you this.
For Christ also hath once
suffered for sins. the just for
the unjust that he might bring
US to God, being put to death in
the flesh, but quickened by the
spirit. By which also be. went
and preached to the spirits IN
prison." 1 Peters -1a-19
The word says He Christ
went and preached to the spirits
in prison. But learned men

The language is. He went, He

Those spirits was the ones o.
