Evening journal., 1897-01-05

I y
and William h. Kurtz of the New Cas-
tie par. They are here for the pur-
pose Of contesting the title of Receiver
of Taxes John 4. Dickey TO seat in
the House of Representatives and the
contest will be formally begun i'm the
/ House tomorrow Messrs Heise and
| Kurtz have prepared all their papers
and held final conference at the Hotel
| Richardson this morning. No obiec
| tion was made TO the participation of
/ Mr. Dickey IN the Democratic caucus
last evening. because he held the GER
ificate OF election. which was prima
lacia evidence OF his election.
Il IS said that Kent and Sussex will
combine TO unseat Mr.. Dickey, but this
rumor cannot be suhstantlated. Some
of the Dickey men declare that If the
New Castle county ballot boxes are
opened, they will show that Dickey is
not the low man, but that Donaldson
or Dempsey will have to step down and
out TO make room for Cheairs, who is
determined to leave no stone unturned
in his endeavor to secure what he re-
CARDS as his rights.
Should Mr. Dickey be unseated, il
will give Senator Pyle much additional
work. as nearly all Wilmington bills
would pass through his hands, he
being the citys only representative.
