COUNTY GOVERNMENT IN
SUSSEX,

In another column today Every
Evening prints the very interesting
dissertation on County Government
in Sussex" given yesterday by Will
liam r. Valiant OF Georgetown before
the Rotary Club. II offers valuable
information to every taxpayer. and is
a contribution TO the general cause OF
good government which carries its
own 1esson.
The history OF county government
in Sussex brings out in marked con-
trast the advantages between a sys-
tenn founded ON loose methods and
partisan political influences. and a
system based on busincsslike methods
and operated by men of intelligence
and common sense. with the interest
and welfare Of the people at heart.
Every Evening has on mOre than one
occasion called attention to the inn
provcmen,s that have taken place in
county government in Sussex during
the past ten years or more. Mr.. Vail
liant's article is a summary of these
changes and Every Evening hopes il
will be carefullyfead by everyone in
terested.

Their eyes were wide with glad sur

not experienced before.

MAKING THE COUNTRY TIRED

Senator Norris ofEebroska said
bluntly In the Senate last week
There Is no doubt that the country
Ia already tired OF the Republican
party" Coming from n Republican.
this was certainly horrifying frank
ness. He was speaking TO the general
thesis that the voters In America
usually cast their ballots with an ami
mus against one party more than
with enthusiasm for the other. SEN
ator NorriD remarked that tho great
Republican majority in 1920 was IN
reality q vote against the Democratic
party. And he plainly intimated that
the dissatisfaction OF the electorate Is
now strongly swinging TO the disad-
vantage OF the Republicans, and that
their turn will come next TO be turned
out Of ONCE, not for the reason that
the country loves the Democrats more
but simply at the time dislikes the
Republicans more and wishes TO pun
ish them for their shortcomings.
Some such acute apprehension must
be In the minds Of a great many Re-
publican leaders in Washington
Otherwise 1T would be impossible 70

show in the presence of the trouble

talking of the Congressional elections

that time, il is hard to believe that
they would not show more backbone

for the state of the public finances

all the plans to finance the bonus pay

fantastic in the extreme-it is al
