A STRONG LOCAL TICKET

MESSRS. Henry D. Howell, of Mid
A'A dletown, and P. Earl Pleasanton,
OF near McDonough, two exceptionally
able and worthy gentlemen, are on the
Republican ticket for the offices of
State Representative and Levy Court,
respectively.
As a candidate for State Representa-
tive our well-known citizen, Henry D.
Howell, possesses many qualifications
which will make him a very useful
member of the Legislature.
He is well educated and widely read,
while his knowledge of parliamentary
practice will increase his usefulness in
that body. Moreover, Mr. Howell is a
successful business man, and to his
other qualifications adds that of prac-
tical knowledge of business affairs in
his county and State.
Mr.. P. Earl Pleasanton as a Levy
Court candidate, is another illustration
of the possession of peculiar fitness for
public office. He is an intelligent gen.
tleman as well as wide-awake, pro-
gressive farmer, and his participation
In the Farm Bureau work in this
county, will prove of especial benefit
to the Legislature in its consideration
of the important agricultural questions
that will come before it.
Both of these gentlemen are of un-
impeachable standing as good citizens
in their respective communities, and
their presence in the next Legislature
will prove not only creditable to them
selves, but highly profitable to the
State.

WORTHY TO BE H0NoRED

NEW and large honofs have come to
L ' Delaware through the public
spirited philanthropies of her eminent
son, Col. Coleman T. dupont whose
noble Boulevard already costing him
over $4, 900, 900 90 promises when CON-
pleted to confer upon his State the
proud distinction of having the finest
system of public roads in the United
States.
Than this, what appeal, at once more
meritorious and powerful, could be
made to his fellow citizens to place
man of such large and useful visions in
station where he may upon a vet
grander scale employ those construc-
tive talents and generous tastes whose
exercise have bestowed upon his own
commonwealth so enduring boon?
Col. dupont with his Big Idea of
giving Delaware the inestimable bless
ing of good roads," has done a wise
and great deed whose wide usefulness
will outast this and many coming gen.
erations, for "good roads" are as
essential to the States prosperity as
big crops and big prices for it's farmers.
A scientifically built road like our
Appian Way, the DUPONT Boulevard, is
of the very highest Importance to the
State.
Rome's public roads were necessary
to her greatness, and possibly her fame
was as much due to her long roads as to
her short swords.
The Transcript, therefore, believes
that this princely gift, given with no
possible thought of any reward in re-
turn, will awaken in the breast of
many grateful De!awareans wish to
show some slight expression of their
appreciation by the bestowal of the
senatorial toga upon Col. Coleman T.
DUPONT, so worthy in every way, in
brain as well as in heart to receive that
high honor.
