DOVER. Aug. 22.-While efforts
were made by few leaders and
delegates from Sussex county las,
night 10 stir up some opposition to
the denomination OF Congressman
Caleb r. Layton. Of Georgetown.
during the, usual jockey.ng FOR ad-
vantage which precedes a state con-
vention. the scheme failed TO bear
fruit and consequently most interest
was centered in the session OF the
Republican State Committee. The
committee. a. usual. on the night
previous 10 the Republican State
Convention. met IN the parlors OF
the Hotel Richardson and transacted
both routine and special business.
During the entire evening when
several hundred delegates and Re
publican leaders from all parts OF
the state were congregated at the
Hotel Richardson. not a word was
heard IN opposition 20 the nomina-
ton OF Senator r. Coleman DUPONT
for both the short and long Sena-
torial terms. by the convention to-
day. Il was taken as matter OF
fact and Justice by all that Senator
dupont will be nominated without
opposition. The opposition TO Con
gresham Layton was 80 slight that
not even his opponents would hazard
n guess that there was any chance
OF his not getting the nomination.
with these facts as a basis the
Indications we're al l o'clock this
morning. when the corridor confer
ences adjourned and the individuals
started a hount for the hay that
Senator dupont and Congressman
Layton will be nominated by ac-
clamatlon this afternoon.
The same was not true. however
as TO the other State Offices for
which nominations will be made to-
day. II was practically conceded by
everyone that the nomination FOR In
surance Commissioner viii go 10
Sussex. but who the successful
nominee will be was the question.
By midnight there were about ok
for the office. all from
sussex. and the friends Of all the
hard AZ work trying TO
land the office.
The fact that Horace Sudler. OF
who recently died, held
his office at the time OF his deatn
With two years Of his term yet 10
.un. is the reason that Sussex is de-
handing the Office and that her de-
nands are agreed TO.

Who was appointed by Governor
Denney 10 succeed Mr.. Sudler until

concerned, and his nomination was
,redicted. Those opposing Mr..

ormerly state Treasurer, as reason
Why he should not be nominated for

urance Commissioner nomination
we're: Former Senator Oliver A.
Sewton, Of Bridgeville; Charles

(EDITORIAL)

In 1913 American citizens thru their votes at the
congressional elections practically repudiated the
democratic party and its leaders.
In 1920 they made it unanimous by eecting Pres-
dent Harding and overwhelmingly republican
gress. Now in 1922 Harding and his republican fol-
lowers in their turn stand largely repudated. The bal
lot record tells significant story.
Having "gven the gate to both old parties in rapid
succession the American people have perhaps shown
that they are thru with the old system of two party
regular government altogether. There must be
something very real in the minds of vast body of
people that neither of the old parties touch Maybe
