what will come back to them IN
years to come. Wilmington is
Republican city with a safe major-
ity beyond peradyeuture, and the
treatment given Charles e. Sparks.
Jr., will long be remembered by
the voters in his ward. The ward
has nearly always OF late years
been a Democratic one, but through
Mr.. Sparks popularity, he fairly

gain by the seating Of MIR. Cannon.
is past comprehension. as they had
a sufficient majority before. For
years the Democrats have contin-
ued in control OF the city by just
such methods OF counting out Re-
publicans. This custom was fol-
lowed tor years in the Third ward,
as the editor Of the Every Evening
can fully attest, when tissue ballots
were used and more votes polled
than their werevoters in the ward.
We don't think it will benefit the
Democratic party or Mr.. Cannon to
steal Mr.. Sparks seat. Stolen
goods never pay. During the con-
troversy over the contest, there
we're some lively debates carried
on by the different members.
