Republican leaders in Delaware. as

over The ratification Dy tennessee Of
the Federal suffrage amendment. and
there is corresponding gloom among
the Democrats. although they are
putting up a bold front and going
through the motions Of being glad
over ratification Democratic pOliti-
clans feel that the solid front OF their
Representatives against suffrage at the
recent special session Of the Legisla-
ture at Dover has cut the ground
from under the Democratic party in
Delaware and swept and greatly weak
ened their party. In fact some Dem
Ocrais frankly say they would not be
surprised, because Of the anti-suf-
fragc stand OF Democrats legislators
at Dover. II at least one heretofore
solid Dcm0cra.ic district south Of sixth
street should elect a Republican in
November They also see chance OF
the Second Senatorial district in VIII
mington being carried by the Repub-
Leans.
The fact stands out. too, mat only
