NOIE THE STRAIGHT REfUBLlCAN IlOhEl.
is important that each Republican voter in Della
ware shall remember two things in connection with
his exercise OF the elective franchise in November.
One is that he should vote the Republican ticket
straight and refuse 10 be drawn away from his duty TO
his party by any representations that may be made by
party-wTecking cOnspiratOrs.
Another is that It is OF supreme Importance to
State and 70 the country at large that the three Re-
publican electors and the Republican candidates for
United States senator and Representative in Congress
shall be elected The senator and the Representa-
tive will be nee ded to give force and effect in Con-
gress to the benefcent policies of the Hughes admin
lstra.ion.
Each Republican should vote the straight Republic
ticket-nntonal, State and cOunty-because II is
the hope OF Alfred l. DUPONT j. Frank Alee Benjamin
A. Groves and the other men who have COnspired to
wreck the Republican party In this election to make
showing at the polls by deludlng Republican voters
TO support the Party Wreckers ticket, and by in
ducement more less substantial, TO round up the
,ena vote Of the State nsts support The future wei
fare OF the party demands that Republican voters
fuse to assist in the creation Of such showing for
that third ticket II also demands that they
operate with the managers OF the Republican
paign in making the strongest possible showing for
the Republican ticket as whole. If they will do that
the party-wreczng cOnspiratOrs will be put out Of
business, Republican principles and policies will
main dominant in this Stale. Democratic hopes of vic
tory viii be destroyed, and Delaware will do its fair
and full share toward giving to President Hughes
Congress that is in harmony With his views and Amer
lean sentiment upon the gre& ISSUES Of the day. The
Min,
win be needed in the next Congress to undo much that
has been done by the Democratic party and to do
much that should be done by the Republican party.
No man who values his reputation as a Republican
can AFFORD to give aid or comfort TO the pary-wreck-
ing cOnspraors in their EFFORT to deliver Congress
and our State and its three counties to the Demo-
Gratis.
The party -Wrecking movement is founded upon the
personal hatred entertained by Alfred l. dupont to-
ward General n. Coleman DUPONT, Republican Ma
hona Committeeman, and extended to senator du-
Pont because the SenatOrsreused to be made party
Alfred /. duPOnt's campaign of hatred against the
General
The party-wreeking movement finds its impulse in
the purse OF Alfred /. DUPONT and the willingness OF
OF the J. Frank Alice type to serve any pOlItlcai
master who is willing to put up the money and who is
not unduy discriminating relative to the purposes for
which It may be expended the matter OF how much
of Il may astickr on the way
There is no excuse for the existence OF such an or
ganizatiOn. The hatred and the cupldity referred Il
above the only prime reasons for It's existence.
Republican voters viii see, therefore, that It ha
within it element which should appeal to their sym
patty or receive Their support.
The only safe and sensible course for Republican
to pursue is 70 reject all suggestions That the
this candidate that candidate be cut and TO vote tn
whole Republican ticke. IT appears on the oicii
ballot, remembering at all times the supreme import
ance Of giving to President Hughes Republican Con
gress.
