Judging by the ovation given the

that no doubt exists IN the minds Of

the wishes Of the people Of Delaware
The sentiment in Sussex county is over
whelmingly against woman suffrage.
Not only that, but a remarkable spirit
Of independence is manifest in the peo-
pie. / believe that the Delaware peo-
pie arc more independent and less sub
servient to political control than the
people of any other State. They seem
perfectly aware Of the dangers Of die
tatiOn from men higher up: they seem
alive 10 the menace Of having their will
thwarted by machine politics; they
show spirit which Will brook no such
domination and which ! believe. If at
tempted, will prove a boomerang 10
any legislator who presumes TO repre-
sent men higher up" and women
higher up" rather than his constitu-
ents.
Although the Republican and Demo-
cratic state Committees have endorseds
the Federal suffrage amendment, l be-
lleve that this perfunctory action will
deceive nobody. Neither committee is
guided by the wishes Of the people OF
Delaware The interference in State af-
fairs by outside influences has become
a national scandal and the utter dlsre-
gard by certain organized minOritles Of
