The delay OF the Senate to confirm
the Presidents appointment of Judge
Wales to be United StateDisirict Judge
for the District of Delaware Is causing
comment amongst the sup 'orters OF the
Judge. Though the appointment
was announced as having been
made, andino doubt it was made,
1t is authoritatively Eta ed that there
never was any report in the Whining.
ton papers of it having been sent to the
Senate.
1t is said that the President very re-
luctantly agreed TO appoint Judge
Wales, not that there was any objection
in point of ability and character, but
because it took from the State courts
republican Judge, whose place could not
be filled by another of the same politics.
1t is intimated by some that represen.
tations have been made TO the Presi-
dent that the colored people of the
State would stand but poor show for
Justice if Judge Wales were taken from
the State bench. This of itself would
most undoubtedly have great influence
upon the President, and it need not be
surprising that this had something to
do with the hitch confirming the ap-
pointment.
In case the appointment Of Judge
Wales falls through, then the question
of who will be appointed will be re-
opened and lead to many speculations.
1t is conceded there is no chance for
Mr.. Massey Of Dover, and MI Moore
positively declining, leaves no available
candidates outside of Wilmington.
Here there are several who would Ali
the office ably and acceptably, but it is
understood that they prefer holding on
to their law practice.
This, then, brings the appointment
within the reach OF Mr.. Frajm, who
has already been prominently n"n-
toned in connection vita II. Mr.. Fraim
is not without support amongst mein-
bers of the bar, even though they have
nearly all signed an application TO have
Mr.. Spruanse appointed, and a few had
signed in favor of Mr.. Fisher.
At any rate, the situation is becoming
interesting, and If Judge Wales APP
pointment falls through there Is no
knowing where the lightning will
strike, and when it does strike, Mr..
Fraim is as likely to be struck as any
body else
