Cause of Danger Signals.

The reasons why the danger signals
of possible defeat for the Republican
nominees for United States Senator
and for Congressman-at-lar are fly
ing in Delaware just now are within
easy access TO the searcher after truth.
First: There has been n remark
able falling off in the registration this
year, and second, there have been
eighteen months of growing discon-
tent over the manner in which General
t. Coleman du Pont, Republican, OBJ
tanned his place in the Senate at
Washington, and Josiah o. Wolcott,
Democrat. became Chancellor OF the
State.
The first is significant of Republi-
can loss or detection.
The second is odorous: and the
voter, metaphorically, approaches It
with a clothespin astride his nose.
The registration, according to the
official figures supplied by Secretary
Of State A. r. Benson. is 10000 below
that OF 1920.
