My subscribptions don't make it to subscriber

Numerous errors about not being able to drop a table because it's in replication.  No one has dropped it; it's there. Any ideas about what can be wrong.  It's out 28 hours up and we feel punchy.  

Command attempted:
drop Table [dbo].[WS_EMP_COV]

(Transaction sequence number: 0x00473D340000452202B600000000, Command ID: 307)

Error messages:
Cannot drop the table 'dbo.WS_EMP_COV' because it is being used for replication. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 3724)
