Judge 8. B. Witt did not render hi,
decision in the Jackson Ward Case or
Thursday last as promised. He mott.
led counsel on both sides that he de.
sired more time in which to look up
authorities bearing upon the questi ons
raised.
Is q councilman an of8icerl Mr.
Royal says that he is and the Hust.
fngs Cours over which Judge Witt pre-.
sides has decided that hs is. in the fs.
nous .Chahoon Ellyson Contest. Judge
Guigon was on the bench at the time.
and this opinion was concurred in by
1870.
But Mr.. Wendenburg pleaded that il
II was not the intention of the legisla-
ture 60 30 include q councilman. That
the Hastings Court has Jurisdiction
over the council is known for is once
cited it to appear in q contempt pro-
ceedings for not keeping the city jail
in proper condition.
KNorTY QUESTIONS.
Still the case embraces some knotty
questions. The fifteen citizens are
claiming on the part OF the peo-
pie of the ward, who are ag-
Rrieved that false return has been
made and the persons legally elected
denied certificates OF election.
The law gives Judge Witt the power
co hear the case on it's merits and to
either set aside the election and issue
writ for new election or 10 award
certificates OF election to the persons
who ars legally and honestly elected.
de also has power to fill the vacancy
in the interim. Mr.. Royal rightly
contended that this was Q right grant
ed to the people themse Ives and en-
ables them to institute proceedings ba-
fore q non-partissn tribunal even
though the candidates themselves OBJ
ject.
II Mitchell, Vandervall, Deane, Por-
ter, Jonathan, Garter aud Selden de-
clded to CONTEST their ease would bs in
the council, but in the case of the
people in Jackson Ward, represented
by fifteen citizens, their case would lie
in the Hustings Court, and the same
results could be obtained as though ac-
tion had been brought in the council.
nh. ROYALS EXPLANATIONS.
Mr.. Royals explanation of officar
was plain. He showed that a person
who took the oath Of Office was sn ofi-

Ger, that person who was command
cd to perform duty by law was an Of
ncer, that person who perform q duty
FOR the city by contract was q publie
functionary and not q public officer.
During his entire time devoted to
the definition Of officer there was no
attempt on the part of Mr.. Wenden.
burg to upset this view OF the matter
and By his silence, he virtually admit
TED that this view was correct, 30 far
as q councilman is concerned.
The counting machine gave the Re-
publican ticket only 145 votes in the
entire ward. There are 600 voters
who can read and write. They will
make affidavit that they did net vote
for Beck, Bahen, Pollock, Teefey,
Stein, Whslen and Mccarthy.
The robbery was The most barefaced
nullihcati0n OF the law ever seen here |:
and amazed not only the colored peo-
pie, but the white ones as well.
THE OLD TACTICS.
1t 10 well-known that obstructive
tactics have been resorted to, but to
deliberately nullify the will of the
people In the broad daylight and to
say openly that the men they elected
should not be so returned shows to
what extremes unprineipled men will
60.
Then, too, the large proportion of
the better class of white people are
openly declaring that the ward was
gerrymsadeFed and turned over to the
colored people and they should con-
troll it.
Judge Witt will render his decision
Monday morning and counsel for con-
testsntS will govern himself accord-
ingly.
