THURSDAY. July 8. 800.

We cannot see how Colonel Eze-
kiel T. Cooper or his friends can
expect President Mckinley to ex-
tend any ciemency toward him in
the manner OF granting him par
don. The Colonel has done more
than, any other one man in the
Democratic party in Delaware to
keep the State Democratic. He has
no CLAIM on the President that en-
titles him to pardon and we do
not zee where the Justice Of the de-
mand comes in. He got off lucky,
after having received a fair trial,
charged With receiving some twenty
!. thousand dollars from the First
National Bank at Dover. His SEN
tence was only Is months and fine
sf 5000 If it had been some poor
!lriendless devil who never had any
chance in the world to elevate him
self and had stolen one hundred dol
lars, he would have been sentenced
to New Castle Jail for at least six
years, besides standing in the pill
Tory and dashed. No petition would
have been circulated to remit the
lashes or Imprisonment. But then
every man is raised in different en-
vironments and the law is not al
ways interpreted alike for those of
high and low degree, when they
break the law by borrowing money
that belongs to some one else than
the person borrowed from. Pres1-
dent Mckinley should pardon Col.
e. T. Cooper like the Governor did
the colored man who died in the
Dover Jail and Jerry Harrigan in
New Castle Jail. The Sun says:
"There was never more disrep-
utable politician in Delaware than
Colonel Ezekiel T. Cooper. Politi-
cally speaking his name was a
stencil to those who knew him and
thousands who had only heard of
him. If one had been asked to
name the worst politician in the
State in point of unsavory reputation
one would say Colonel Ezekiel T.
Cooper without hesitation. He was
