Getting The Returns

A vast and elaborate system has
been developed for counting the
votes cast on election day. The peo-
pie. anxiously watching newspaper
bulletin boards and listening at their
radios, may think the returns slow
in coming in. 1t is an enormous
task to count the votes Of 45.O0O,OOO
people, and get them tabulated and
sdded and reported to central head
quarters.
The newspapers depend upon
vast army Of reporters and election
officers all over the country to get
the returns in promptly. II some re-
porter puts the return in his pocket
and waits until the next day to send
it in, he is an obstacle to the COM
plete report Of the votes. The peo-
pie give three cheers for every pre-
cinct where pains are taken to get
the news in promptly.

WITH THE CAMPAIGN in Della
ware drawing to close. it is wise
Al this time for Republican and In
dependent voters, to pause for a
few moments and carefully examine
the ticket that has been placed in
the field. OF especial interest to the
voters Of the First Representative
District OF Sussex county and the
Tenth Representative District of
Kent county, are the candidates for
the House Of Representatives
HENDY d. COOK of Lincoln, and
JONATHAN S. JACK" WILLIS of
Milford Neck. Both of these men
are well and favorably known
throughout this section. Both have
been successful in their chosen
fields. Both are loyal to Republican
ideals, and both will, If elected to
the House, serve their state and con-
stituency with honor and, distinction.
THEIR ELECTION TO THE LEGIS-
LATURE is OF THE UTMOST I'M
PORTANCE for at this time, like no
other, problems are going to con-
front the General Assembly that will
require intelligent consideration and |
a careful exercise of judgment. |
THESE MEN ARE CAPABLE
THESE MEN ARE DESERVING OF
YOUR CONFIDENCE AND SUP
PORT.

The National Election

A great and solemn duty rests
upon the American people at this
time. On Tuesday, November S, they
go to the polls I'd elect a president,
vice president, members Of con-
gress, and state aAcers in most Of
the states. The acfs they take on
that historic date AFFECT their
own welfare for many years.
The business of tue country has
come to a large extent into the con-
troll of the federal government. 1t
is felt by many that this centralizing
of power will remove or mitigate
many serious abuses 70 make such
control a success. calls for a very
high degree Of judgHsnt and knowl-
edge of the way business works.
Also the government is spending
a vast amount of money which the
people have some time to pay back.
Whether or not such great expendi-
lures were necessary, except for de-
fense, is a disputed question. At
least the people should mark their
ballots for the most honest and
practical men, who will handle this
vast business and government ma
chine in a way to promote the pub
lie welfare. and protect the United
States from menacing dangers.
The country urgently needs a vast
increase in its defensive armament.
It faces a combine of predatory pow
ers which have already grabbed
more than a dozen nations. and are
looking for more weak countries on
which they can prey. They have
paid little attention to the warnings
of the United States, since our prin-
ciples were not backed up by mill |
tary force.
The United States would be in |
great danger should the British navy |
be sunk or surrendered. There is
urgent need for haste in protecting
against the danger of war.
Our people need to choose as their
rulers the people best able to pro-
vide this protection, and regulate
The business of the country in a way
10 promote security, prosperity, and
Justice.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY in
Sussex county is asking the support
OF all Republicans, independent and
dissatisfied Democrats at the polls
next Tuesday. The ticket with nc
exceptions is worthy. and each can
didate for county court house jobs
is well qualified to fill the duties OF
the Office for which he has been NOM
mated. In making out their ticket
the Republicans chose candidates
from all parts of the county so that
full representation might be had at
Georgetown when they take Office in
January.
The Republicans took especial
care in Sussex county when they
named their candidates for mem
bers Of the Legislature. It is neces-
sary that men who will work with
Governor Bacon shall be elected to
both Houses. without this support
his administration will be greatly
hindered at the outset. The men
named will give this support. and
progressive legislation will result
to the benefit of the entire state.
Vote the straight Republican ticket
next Tuesday.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY ha
been the constructive party in Della
ware. For forty years they demon
strated this. Under Republican rul
the Diamond State has progresses
at a rapid and enormous stride.
highway system second to none, &;
state public school system equal Il
the best, a sound financial founda
ton. an efficient police force, pro
gressive administration of public af-
fairs-these are a few of the better
things with which we are blessed
These came into being and were nur-
tured by Delaware Republicans.
These were the things which the
present Democratic State Admins
tration found when they assumed
Office four years ago. Many have
again come under Republican con-
troll, and the Observation-Disclosures
which they received at the hands of
the Democrats has been remedied.
1t is necessary, however. that the
entire state government be taken
over next January in order that
these benefits may continue to exist.
For the consideration of Delaware
voters the Republican party has
nominated and presented to the cleo
tOrate a strong ticket. Well balanc-
ced, with capable men for every
Office on the ticket they may well
command the vote of every Della
ware citizen. Walter w. Bacon, can
didate for Governor. has given Will
mington its finest and most out
standing administration of municipal
affairs. He will carry with him this
same administrative ability when he
assumes the office of Governor next
January. Opposed by the weakest
candidate on the Democratic ticket.
his election is a foregone conclu-
sion. He will untangle the admin
lstrative mess into which the pres
ent Democratic administration has
allowed things to drift.
John 6. Townsend, candidate for
United States Senator, has a long
and honorable career in public SER
vice for Delaware and Delawareans.
His records as a member of the up
per house of Congress is outstand-
ing. During his twelve years there
he has sponsored legislation of out
standing national benefit. With a
Republican administration in Wash
ington his usefulness will increase.
Filling a unique position in our
nations capitol, that of Delaware's
only representative in the House of
Representatives George S. Williams
has acquitted himself nobly. He has
served his state and nation well. |
His presence in Washington is need
badly needed during these
times of stress.
Earle D. Wiley, candidate for |
Lieutenant-Governor, certainly needs
no introduction to Sussex countians.
A native of this county, but a resi-
dent of Kent county at the present
time, he has capably filled every
office of public trust that has been
to his care. The Presiden-
cy of the Senate will be in good
hands while he is presiding.
Both the Office of Auditor of Ac-
counts and State Treasurer are ad-
Offices. The present en-
,umbents are seeking reelection.
they are entitled to this, for during
he past two years they have admin
stored these Offices to the public
rood. Pete" Shaw and Pagan ST.
nonton deserve your vote.
The state ticket is one in which
II voters may take just pride and
me that will certainly draw support
rom all parties.

THE HEART of the Willkie cru
sadie is unmistakably national unity
Whatever he is discussing, this
thought comes uppermost. It plain
ly is part of his basic faith as an
American. 1t is. before all else, to
achieve this goal of unity that he has
undertaken the task of defeating the
third term.
At Akron Mr.. Willkie discussed
collective bargaining with a rare
perception of its Importance not
only to labor but to the whole coun-
try. UNFOLDING the right of labor
to bargain collectively by represen-
tatives of its "own free choice" he
broadened the conception to include
a spirit of cooperation between en-
ployer and employee. The task he
set for himself is a long and diff
cult one. Yet with his usual vigor
and confidence in his countrymen he
could say:
with the help of the leaders.
both of labor and industry,
want to put an end to this era of
bad feeling. ! want to unity the
spirit of America. With the help
of both. we cannot fail"
Call this an ideal, if you will. It
comes, however. not from a theorist
but from a man of intense practical
knowledge who, by his strength of
will and fairness of spirit put his
ideal to work in his own compan-
les. 1t is an ideal older than the
nation, as matter of fact. Upon it
the Republic was founded-"United.
we stand; divided. we fall" as
poet later phrased it. Or. in the Ian
guage of Mr.. Willkie:
"The simple, obvious. plain
truth is that America is not di-
visible. 1t is one And what
hurts one hurst all. What profits
one profits all.
The New Deal shows no evil
dence of knowing these things.
No administration can lead Am
erica safely through the hazards
of this war-torn world unless it
fully understands that America
is one"
That is the. central truth of the
election, we are convinced. Unless
Mr.. Willkie can do for America what
Chuchill has done for Eng
land the future of the country is
lark indeed. Not only production |
FOR defense, but the whole survival
IF the American democratic way, |
depends upon ending the feuds of
he New Deal. The third-term can
iidate has lived politically by TO-
lenting these envies and hatreds.
lie could not, if he would, change
his policy.
What is probable in the domestic
ield seems certain in respect to for
ign affairs. The next President will
Inevitably face a divided Congress
nd strong opposition in both par
les. Unhampered by old animosi-
les, and independent in politics, MIR.
yillkie seems clearly far better fit
ed to unite the nation and Congress
ehind a clear. forceful foreign pol
cy than Mr.. Roosevelt, entangled in
'ast disputes and opposed by pow
rful figures in both parties.
Mr.. Willkie has proved to all that
ave heard him that he not only
leans unity with every particle of
is being but that he intends to de- ,
ote the great power of his mind
nd heart to achieving this end. To
cad the day after election that Mr..
Roosevelt has been reelected would
ause a sinking of the heart in
Ountless Americans loyal not only h
D a group, or class, or a party, :
ut to their nation. With Mr.. Will r
lie elected, America would already r

opes high and fears ended. !,
