AFTER WHITES LYECHERs

That Acknowledgement Ward fully in.
tends to bring the recent lynclling Of the
negro George White to the attention oil
the grand jury when it conyenes for the
September term OH Monday was amply
confirmed Wednesday, when the attor-
ney-general summoned to his Office q
score Of persons in an effort to obtain
evidence against men alleged to have
been ringleaders of the mob that stormed
the county workhouse and burned the
negro White at the stake Fully vested
with the power to summon witnesses to
obtain information that may be Of value
in criminal prosecution, Attorney Gen.
eral Ward put the men who were brought
before him through searching exami-
nation in an effort TO incriminate those
who were supposed to have been at the
head of the lynching party.
That it is to be searching examina-
tion is evidenced by the fact that State
Detectives Francis and Ratledge have a
big list Of names Of persons who are being
summoned to 60 before the attorney gen.
eral. Among the witnesses examined
Wednesday were Elvyn C. Goodley,
David Leshem, Joseph Leshem, Harry
T. Willis, John J. Malloy and Edward
Haiserwair Of Wilmington; Arthur Turn
er, railroad man, who recently returned
from Los Angeles, CAL, and Albert Muir
roy, negro, who lives not far from the
workhouse. Several other witnesses who
declined to give their names were before
the attorney general. and it leaked out
that some farmers living in Mill Creek
and Christiana Hundreds in the vicinity
Of where the negro was cremated, have
been questioned by the state detectives.
Under the Delaware statutes Attorney
General Ward has broad powers that al
low him to summon witnesses before
him at any time to obtain information
for himself. Each man examined yester-
day was given fee OF one dollar for his
attendance.
The mysterious man, Baker, alleged to
be the ringleader of the mob, has left
Wilmington at the solicitation Of friends,
and persons who really were participants
in the lynching have closed their mouths
as tight as CLAIMS since the rumor that
the investigation was to be made gained
currency.

veyed $4,000 and that Sumner should
pay to each of the three Ellises $40, 900,
to the Catholic Church $4,000 and to
Maria S. Davis $4,000. The respondent
was also 70 receive a fee of $1,000 for
his services and those of his associates
in the guardianship and injunction
cases, Magoon & Peters, and other at
torneys were likewise to receive certain
amounts as fees.
Next the suit of Bishop Ropert for
new trustee in his place is stated, be-
ing the Ropert suit referred to in the
Humphreys and Thompson case, and
the court goes on to state the charges.
CHARGES AGAINST DAVIS.
The first charge is that the respond
ent on Sept. 2. 1902, procured himself
to be retained by Maria S. Davis and
instigated her to institute the guar
dianship proceedings; that about Oct.
u Sumner and Maria s. Davis agreed
to discontinue the suit on the payment
to Maria S. Davis of $4,000 and that
the latter notified the respondent of
this settlement, but that respondent re-
fused to settle unless he was paid $1,000
and threatened to prevent the settle
ment unless paid that amount as at
torney's fees.
The second charge is that respondent
falsely represented to Sumner and r.
W Davis that he could obtain for Sum-
ner $4S,025 tied up in bank if Sumner
would pay him $4,000, and secured a
promissory note from Sumner for that
amount.
The third charge relates that re-
;pondent procured himself to be APP |
pointed one of the attorneys for Sum- |
Ter in the Ropert case and acted as |
such. and that by threats and intimida- |
ions he extorted from Sumner the sum |
# $4,000.
The court finds that the allegation in /
he first charge. that Geo. A. Davis |
procured himself to be retained by |
Iaria S. Davis as her attorney, is not |
ustained by the evidence.

TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT AGAIN.

After all, the principal reasons why Alaska should not have territorial government as urged by its op- ponents, are that the population is not permanent and that taxation might" be increased. To the bird of passage nothing that is is permanent. To him everything is as transitory and feetng him. self, therefore such arguments carry real weight Aaska's population is increasing and it is permanent. It has increased is increasing, and will continue increase. One needs only to look about him for confirmation of the statement. Alaska is made up of citizens of the United States, who have the inalienable right to self government. Is to be disranchised because he resides in Alaska? Is the country of such small importance and with no future that it must continue 10 submit to an amorphous sort of government directed from Wash ington? This may suit those who still maintain their residence and vote' in the States while tenn porarily soiournng in Alaska, but it will not suit the man woman who is actual bona-ide resi- dent of the territory.
 Territorial governments have never been failures. The organization of territorial form of government is the initatory step toward the establishment of state government. Thirtytwo states of the Union have gone through the formative process and emerged from it successfully. The territory of Ore gon. when it was created, had population of less than 10000 souls, and embraced what the states ot Oregon, Washington, Idaho and portion . s1S Al
 Uf Montana. The means of communication were far more difficult and burdensome than they are today in Alaska, and yet territorial government there not failure. Neither the tax burdens increased or the people oppressed by unwse ard unjust laws. So it will be in Alaska. The cost of territorial gov .ernment, when have one will be borne largely by the federal government We will then be no longer 'neither fish, flesh fowl" but sovereign terri tory, the home of free people.
 The sectional cry that Southeastern Alaska would overbaance the northwest portion is not It has been heard in every territory of the Union One section has raised the cry against another It was so in Dakota before the territory divided And yet did either section suffer? Alaska has the population to entitle it to territorial form of gov ernnent it has the resources, the present wealth, magnificent future, and its real development has al ready begun. We have been misgoverned from I Washington long enough Let us govern ourselves.
