Willis Aldermanie Decision.
Judge Willis has filed his decision IN
the Pennington-IIare contested election
case. 1t will be remembered that he
rendered his decision in August at the
conclusion of the trial, deciding that
Aid. Hare had been duly elected on the
face of the returns as alderman OF the
Sixth ward by three votes. He also
found that the evidence showed that
after a recount of the ballots cast Mr..
Hare had been elected. His election
beng disposed of. Judge Willis passed
upon the alleged Illegal votes and upon
the reflections of votes offered by "a
number of Italians and announced that
in his opinion that the votes of the
Italians had been improperly rejected.
The evidence convinced him that there
had been undue influence and intimida
ton by the judges at one of the
precincts in the ward, which resulted
in preventing the men from voting. 1t
aISO dppcdicu ludL lucTe was no pro.
vision of law for having the votes
placed in envelopes as challeng ed, so
that they could be inspected. While
holding that Mr.. Hare had been elected
without the votes of the Italians, yet he
was of opinion that their votes should
be counted for Mr.. Hare, thus increas
ing his plurality. Judge Willis finds
from the evidence that the Italians
were legal voters; they had been prop
erly registered, and their votes should
have been counted for the Democratic
ticket, as the evidence showed they
ATTENDED to vote. While their votes
were not requisite to elect Mr.. Haze, it
is just that they should be counted.
