The Democratic Party

The Democratic Party
The Democratic Party which at
one time seemed buried beyond res
direction is about to come to the
front once more.
The several meetings which have
already been held in Wilmington
seem very enthusiastic and would
indicate a very determined effort on
the part of those believing in those
principles which the Democratic
Party represents, to make a fight
worthwhile, and if possible put the
Republican Party to flight and be
able to raise the Democratic ban
ner once more in triumphant man
ner.
The Republican Party at the pres
ent time is entrenched in such a way
that it will need the united efforts
of all Democrats to dislodge them
from the positions they now occu-
py.
The Democrats will find hard
work before them and to reunite the
discOrdant factions into one body,
also be able to draw heavily from
the Independent vote will require
the best efforts of those who have
the welfare of the party at heart.
1t seems to the writer that the
Democratic Party is now in need of
a class of leaders who would meas
ure up to the capacity of the leaders
of old. Men who knew politics from
A to q, and knew when and how to
impart blows on the opposition
which would tell and bring satisfac-
tory results.
The trouble with most of the po-
litical parties of today are to have
men who in no way are able or
have the capacity to lead as past
events go to show, and when ever
any party tries under such leader
ship to win victories, defeat gener-
ally follows.
Men to lead any political party to
victory must be strong, astute and
manly, willing at all times to sacri-
fee self for the upholding of the
principles of the party for which |
they are identified. Such leaders are
few and far between, but yet there
are some left.
The Democratic Party under the
proper management will come to the
front again. It's usefulness is not yet
spent-but like all political parties
that have been for a long time in
The ascendency, have to purge
themselves of the undesirables
which generally hang on to the par
y which has the most to give.
The Democratic Party has passed
through the state of publication
needed and is now ready under pro-
Der leadership to come forth and
)attle for those things which mean
light and justice for all people of
he State.
The call that has gone forth to
he State Committee and the Com
nittee of Sussex County as well, to
1eet at Georgetown on February 21
nd there discuss what is the best
curse to pursue, that the Demo-
ratio Party may in the next cam
align become once more the aggres-
i've force that will fight for victory.
Josiah Marvel, a prominent law
er, of Wilmington, will be present
the meeting advertised. Mr.. Mar
Ell is candidate for the Office of
S. Senator and his hat has been
the ring for some time. He was
Orn in Sussex county where his
'rebears were a power from a po- n
teal standpoint. When Nanticoke
undred in the old days always
ent Democratic when the Marvels
ere at the helm. n
Josiah has much of the fighting 9
1alities as shown by his father and n
randfather and if nominated for q
10 high office which he seeks will n
We his opponent a hard battle to a
in. -
Perhaps Josiah Marvel is the long II
oked for Moses who is to lead the cl
emocratic hosts once more to VIC
