To DELAY REPLY

Mexican Note Not Likely to

Week or 10 Days.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-There is
10 likelihood that the Mexican note
will be answered before "A week or
10 days. This became apparent to-
day both in the state departing al
and capitol circles. The announce
ment at the white house yesterday
that the troops will not be with

FOR three weeks the MILFORD CHRoN-
IcLE PUBLISHING Co., has been handi-
capped for power, while installing a new
boiler, and during the past week Just
one difficulty after another has followed
in quick succession. The temporary
power installed failed absolutely last
Saturday, and it is only by successive
effort that the MILFORD CHRONICLE has
been gotten through the press at all for
the current issue. Each department has
met troubles at every turn, and we are
now hoping to get steam from the new
boiler the early part of the coming week.
With the mercury hanging around the
ninety mark most of the time, and the
humidity in the atmosphere making
life miserable, the publishers of the
CHRONICLE are living mp to the record
Of never Omitting, or postponing an is
sue of the paper for thirty eight years
It is hard to live up to, especially just
under the present conditions however,
we are hoping for better conditions at
an early date.

The fight in Kent County for dele
gates is waxing bitter, and no oppor-
tunity to belittle the effort of each side
is omitted by either faction of the Re
publican Party. There seems to be no
real effort to organized the voters to win
a victory at the polls, but only concen-
tration for the primary election, which
will choose delegates for the State Con-
yention, is occupying all the time. 1t is
well to make the contests at the pri-
maries, hut it is also important to create
an organization of the party, and when
this is done, the results of primary cleo
tions seldom are doubtful. The meeting
held at the home of Senator Barnard
last week at which fifty men prominent
in Kent County politics attended, indi-
Gates more than an ordinary revolt
against the organization and the canvass
for delegates is growing more and more
persistent. In the Tenth Representative
District of Kent County, the voters have
been importuned until they scarcely
know which to support. The colored
voters have been taken under the direct
care of the leaders and house-to-h house !
canvas has been made as follow-up work 1
by men of their own race. The colored |
men are sadly missing their advisor who !
never failed them-Dr. George W. Mars
hall, and the new advisors must gain
their respect and trust by open and
square dealing. The Senatorial ques-
lion has injected new effort on the part
of men who want to shape the affairs of
he Republican Party.

RUBY R. VAN. has been growing in
favor with men of thought and interest
in political affairs of Sussex County, and
there will be strong effort made to
push him as a candidate for the United
States Senatorship to succeed Senator
DUPONT. Mr. Vail is a young man of
strong mental parts, with a particular
gilt for political leadership, and there is
an earnest effort in the First District of
Sussex County to place him squarely
before the people as the Republican
nominee for the United States Senator
ship. If the Governorship comes from
Sussex County, it would be only a slim
chance for this county to secure two
large Offices, but the unexpected fre-
quently happens, and there certainly is
no question but what Ruby R. Vail
would make a brilliant member of the
United States Senate, and a sEong fighter
for the Republican Party in that body.

THE DUPONT Boulevard will not be
opened for travel until about the first

use. To the people of Delaware the
opening of this road means much so
much, that FIVE years hence in looking
backward, it will be amazing that its
building was postponed for so many long
