THIS CAMPAIGN IN DELAWARE will be
memorable for several reasons to the people
who are interested in the welfare of this state
and its institutions. The calamity hOwlers and
wreckers working within the lines of both the
Democratic and Republican parties, have made
extraordinary effort to break down organization
and supplant personal animOsities for economi-
cal and progressive government All the old
slogans and misrepresentation of past cam
paigns, which were used to befog the ideas of
the rank and file of the parties, have been
played upon, to arouse bitter antagonism against
that which has been proved to be economical,
as well as affective in the principal lines of
government, especially that affecting education
and highways as well as financing, for both
state and county affairs.
1t is true that much of the talk by those who
are not informed as to what the laws are, or
how they are administered is the result of mis-
information given out by the local or district
politician who is too often a paid worker for
those higher up. Opposition to individuals is
created by playing upon the narrow ideas of
men and women who four years ago were al
most crazy over the School Code" and many |
of them are heard in this campaign voicing their |
antagonism to candidates because of their stand
settled for good and all and the School COD"

Dealed law, has been superseded by a school law

he money appropriated for the enforcement of
his Democratic school law, was made by a leg
stature controlled by the Democratic party in
10Th its branches. In too many instances, this
opposition is camahauge by the voters and in I
identally announces the fact to politicians, that
hey are ready to consider any financial consid- g
ration to change their vote. =
The bitter family jealousy between relatives p
as been the source from which has grown the
reater part of the present dissatisfaction exist
lg in the ranks of the Republican Party The
esult of this venom has penetrated through the Il
alls of common decency and very properly has CT
esulted in reaction of the people from sup A
0rt of those permitting the libelous and illegal
tacks upon the Republican nominees. sr
This the people of Delaware will pass upon on o,
uesday next, with their ballots. 1t is not a ~,
leston alone on patriotism for them to decide, .,
