ARGUING THE MANDAMUS.
KENT cOUNTY'S TROUBLES BEING
HEARD IN OPEN COURT.

DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS DID NOT
MEET YESTERDAY AND APP
PEARED IN COURT TO-DAY FOR
THE PURPOSE OF SHOWING
CAUSE.
DOVER, Nov 2L-Tha Democratic
members of the Board of Canvass. oil
Kent county, refused yesterday to obey
the alternative writ of mandamus
compelling them to assemble and re-
count the votes or appear in court to-
day and show cause why they did not
do so. The alternative writ named
noon yesterday as the time for the
board TO meet but when that hour ar
rived only half the members of the
board We're present. A few minutes
after y o'clock Sheriff Shaw, who Is
chairman of the board. called foI
order, and the roll was called. The in
spectors who answered were Erasmus

Rowan, Levi G.. Sterner, h. L. Con
Wei, Clarence Mason and Charles c.
Macklin. All of them were Repubn-
cans except William II. Walker Thisl

would wait an hour to see IN any of the
Democrats would come in. At IL
O'Clock Sheriff Shaw and the seven In
spectors adjourned without taking any
action whatever. They all appeared in |
court this morning. when the case was
argued before the Superior Court in |
special session.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon
the Democratic members OF the board |
held meeting, but il was for the pur- |
pose of having a conference with their |
attorneys and prepare the case for to- |
day. The Democrats claim that they
have no fear of the court ordering an
other recount, and even if it does IL |
viii not change the result. The at |
torncys say that IL the court orders |

majority of the board Another
Democratic attorney in the case claims
that the members of the board are
functus ohicio, as the law plainly says
that they are TO assemble on certain
date and canvass the vote. and that
date has passed, and no writ can be
issued compelling another meeting.
The argument to-day is interesting. as
the question is one of the most impor-
tant that has come before the Superior
Court for a number of years

With song and shout,

cine, but when found any that would
give me relief it would injure my stom-

to my notice. used it and will say it
is the only remedy that gave me per-
manent relief and no bad results follow.
take pleasure in recommending this
preparation to all of my old comrades,

their country, contracted this dreadful
disease as did. from eating unwhole-
