REPUBLICANS SWEEP SUSSEX COUNTY

In Sussex County the Republicans
made a clean sweep Of the county Offices,
eiecting their entire county ticket. The
imalorities in some instances were large.
out in others only few votes difference
were noted The new Lew Court Com
mission of three members, which will be
lnaugurated in Sussex County January
lst. 1917, will be composed of two Demo
crats-William +. Vallient and Frank W.
Holloway and one Republican William
J. Mustard. The election of these com
missioners to a big majority of the people
OF the county was not a matter of parties,
but the electing rather of board to do
the work. As a result the ballots were
split in every district in favor of the diff
ferent candidates. All Of the elected men
are well qualified to give Sussex County
a business administration and much good
should result from their labors. Any
thing will be better than the old system
Of doing business.
