SUSSEX HAS EYES ON
NEXT GOVERNORSHIP
OPPOSITION TO THE SCHOOL CODE is
DWINDLING AND POLITICIANS ARE
WEARY OF THE SUBJECT.

II is conceded that the Republicans
will put up a stin fight for control OF
the State offices next fall and espec-
tally viii they strain every nerve TO
win the governor. since there will be
an entire new judiciary 10 appoint.
The recognized leaders OF Alfred l
DUPONT in Sussex county have been
straining every nerve in fighting the
new School Code with the hope that
il will prove of benefit 10 them during
the election. but then those Democrats
who have been bitterly assailing il will
take no stock in what they do Thus
far there has been no concerted action
among the Democratic politicians as
a whole against the School Code. and
It is hardly likely that il viii be made
so great an issue as il would seem.
Sentiment against the code in Sus-
sex is gradually dwindling since p,
S. DUPONT made his speech here; al
least the people are not thinking as
much of it as they did and il is thought
that by the time the campaign rolls
around the feeling in some localities
will not be as high as it has been for
the past four OF five weeks. Many
tax payers appreciate Mr.. dupont Civ
ing his valuable time 20 come down
20 Sussex to make his explanatory
speeches.
