SECOND WARD CASE.
Court SuStainS the Board
Of Aldermen
ON A MERE TECHNICALITY.
New Action Will Probably be Taken
After Next Monday.

rescript was handed down in the Su-
preme Court this morning on the, Second
Ward election case. The opinion Is
written by Judge Stiness and the de-
murrer is sustained on purely technical
grounds.
The opinion and rescript goes to show
that the candidates have no such special
interest as To allow them to petition for a
mandamus In their own names, and then
points out that petition for such man
damus should be brought by the proper
public officer, which, as Is we'll known, IL
the Attorney General.
1t is expected that when the new City
Council organizes, action will be taken In
both branches under the charter to all
the existing vacancies.
l. Suit will then be instituted against
the new City Council IL ii refuses to order
an election within a reasonable time"
No doubt ADHERENCE OF opinion will be
likely to occur AZ to what may constitute
a reasonable time.
II the election Is not ordered, or deferred
until April again, action will probably be
taken to compel an early election.
