The National Guard is now to be
put 10 a severe test of its efficiency.
Upon the strength of representations
made in Congress by the advocates of
Federalization a great deal more will
be expected of the Guard than would
be the case n no attempt had been
made to reduce control by the States
to a minimum. This is not exactly
fair. but il is natural
The responsibility OF officers of the
Guard who brought pressure to bear
upon Congress to make the tie with
the Federal Government close will be
all the greater because they sue

REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION AND MALCONTENTS.
VNHERE is no Republican State organization in the
United States that is better. cleaner and more de-
serving of public confidence support than Is the
Republican party of Delaware
Certain men Of doubtful political principle and un-
questioned Interior motive who would like to obtain
control Of that organization and for their own
selfish and un Republican ends, spend much Of their
time just now in criticzng and characterizng it as
a machine"
Such unwarianted attacks only serve to strengthen
the organization in the good opinion OF the Republi-
can voters Of the State Those understand the
motive underlying the activities OF the macontens
who, personally vioarously, give voice 20 state
ments founded upon gross Misrepresentation
Our Republican State organization is wholesomely
constituted. It's aims lofty. the chief one being
to the public and give it the best govern
ment that is obtainable through human agency. Re
publican voters know that TO be true The knowl-
edge is shared by many independents It is useless
for the political indictments who are engaged so in

hope to induce the Republican electorate or any sub
