THE AVIS"
CHRISTLANSTED ST. CROIX
"Wednesday 18th august 1880.

AT the COlOuldl OOuIlC1 . McctAhS vi
Monday the first part of the Proceed
ings was of aformal character. The
Draft of Ordinance for the delivery,
under extraordinary circumstances, of
riding and draft animals for the Mill
tary force, was read a third time and
passed; and the Councils consent was
unanimously given to the transactions
in regard to the Estate Rust up Twist
which had been detailed in d letter
from the Presidency.
The latter part Of the Meeting was
devoted to discussing the West End
Election case. The Committee elect
ed to consider the matter presented
their report, which in substance
stated that a majority of three mem
bers (Hattensen, Latimer and Will
lard) recommended that the election
should be considered as invalid,
while a minority, (Rosenstand and
Kalmer) recommended the adoption
of the opposite view.
Captain Willard moved that the
report should be taken under discus
sion. The Chairman said that tn,
discussion could be entered on either
at once or on Monday rext, whom the
Budget would be brought forward.
AS far as the Member whose position
was contested was concerned it might
be better to decide the matter at once,
as he would then know whether he
could take his seat at next Mondays
Meeting. The Chairman would give
the Council fifteen minutes respite,
and would then take their decision as
to whether the subject should be at
once discussed or postponed till
Monday.
On reassembling the Council decid-
ed by s votes to 2 that the discussion
should come on at once.
The Vice Chairman thereupon took
the Chair, and Judge Rosenstamd
addressed the Council from his place
at the table. He said that the stand
point of the majority was that abso-
lutte priority should be given to the
elective lists. The End Grown Member
(Kalmer) had in a most lucid manne
explained his views in reference to
the force of the 18th section of the
Colonial Law; but his, the speakers,
standpoint was a little different.
1t seemed to him that the %elector
must reside in the district, but he did
not consider it necessary to raise this
question while the matter could be
decided on other grounds. It ap-
peared to him that there were no
positive facts to overthrow the cleo
ton. There were 9 votes on each
, 1880-08-11

come to the vote IN dispute there is
no proof that Mr.. Heibrock would
have voted for Mr.. Wilson, and so
have made the result of the election
different; but, ON the contrary, there
was proof that MI. Heibrock would
have voted for Mr.. Birch, and the
result would have been as it is now.
Positive grounds should be shown for
the overthrowing of the election, and
as none were shown he thought it
should stand valid.
Mr.. Latimer differed from the last
speaker. He thought there was
every ground for overthrowing the
election. The course followed on the
occasion was a new departure, a
divergence from custom and prece-
dent at elections. Too much stress
should not be laid on the protest, as
statements quite opposite had been
made in regard to the intentions of
the gentleman in question. He, the
speaker, held the legal opinions Of
the honorable member Judge Rosen-
stand) in the highest esteem, but
everybody knows that lawyers all
the world over can take three mean
ings out of everything. He thought
it more a matter of common sense,
and he believed in sticking to the old
ways, and settling the matter accord
ing to custom and precedent. Judge
ROscnStQnd had no doubt that the
precedents were as the Honorable
Member stated; but did not agree
that this decides the matter, because
it may have been that the attention
of the Elective Board was not called
b the facts in the previous cases re-
ferred to.
Mr.. HnttenSen could not understand
why it should be lett to the Elective
Board to take or refuse the vote of a
man whose name stood on the list.
He thought the vote should not have
been refused, and therefore the cleo
ton ought to be overthrown.
Captain Willard held that the voter
in question had a right to vote and
had been refused. 1t had some time
since been laid down in the Council
room that unless an objection was
made before February it could not be
be made at all, and he thought the
same rule should have held good in
this case.
Judge Rosenstand remembered a
question Of quite a different nature in
reference to Judge JUrs election
1t was in regard to the Judges right
to election while off the island, and
not about voters.
Captain Willard had referred to q
question of the right OF certainpersons
to vote, and the persons disputing it
had been answered as he had stated.
The Vice Chairman said that the OBJ
lection referred to by the last speaker
was made to certain names being on
the list without qualification, not TO
the parties having voted. He, the
Vice Chairman, was of the same opin-
ion as the majority of the Committee
but Mr.. Heibrock's declaration made
it clear to him that the election should
be upheld. He could not agree with
the speaker who had said that no
great stress should be laid OF the
declaration. He certainly should

WASHINGTON, April 14.-Finley, the man whom
Mr. Hewitt vouches for az an accredited and useful
confidential agent Of the Democratic party man
ayers in New-York, is president of the National
Capitol Life Insurance Compauy-a position 70
which he was elected when his predecessor, Mr.
Ben Noyes, was arrested and sent to the New'Jersey
Penitentiary for fraud.
As far as can be ascertaned. the business OF this
company since Mr.. Finleys advent. has been to re-
ceive premiums from policy-holders and pay them
out as running expenses. 1t is said to be hopeessy
bankrupt, and to make no pretence of paying It's
losses, yet up to within o short time 1t has con-
tinued to receive premiums from any policy-hoders
who would pay them.
Mr.. Finley has testified in one of the numerons
law suits in which his company has been concerned
that he received salary for his services. but that
his travelling expenses, etc., amounting to ABOUT
So 900 year, were paid by the company. 49,
fhe fact is only interesting as showing something
of the character of the men who selected to per-
form the delicate political work of the Democratic
party.
