HEAVY SNOW STORM
Sweeps DOWN ON CITY
Leaden Skies of Past Two
Days Fulfill Their
Promise

Winter has settled down in earn
est and snow is flying in a manner
that bids fair to cover the ground well
before night. In fact the frigld condi-
uons have been in evidence for some
time. The sleet storm Of Friday night
made out door life anything but pleas
ant since and the leaden skies for the
past two days have given promise Of
the storm which Is now raging.
The snow began to fan shortly after
10 o'clock in the business-lille way in
which big storms start First II was
fine and light then It developed in
size and quantity. BY one o'clock the
ground was we'll covered and the in
dications are favorable for its con-
tinuance throughout the night.
There are two classes who hail II
with delight. The owners Of sleighs
and the children. II the storm con-
tinues throughout the night tomorrow
viii hear the Jingle Of bells along the
ldriveways and the shouts Of thl
youngsters on the hills. SO far thi
winter there has not been a snow o
sufficient depth 10 either coast o
sleigh and as generally on the frs
snow there Is a big turn out.

ATTORNEY FOR EDISON CO.
ENTERS APPEARANCE
Case Will be Called for Ar
gument in Federal Court
on Early Part of January

William p. Whitney, Of New York.
representing the Thomas a. Edison. Jr.,
Chemical Company, entered his appear
ance as the representative Of the COM
pany, in United States Court this morn
ing. The concern has until the first Mon
day in January to plead, answer or demur
to the bill filed by Thomas A. Edison
some time ago, asking for an injunction
against the company to prevent it from
usinb the name Of the famous inventor
in it's business pursuits.
Sometime ago the court decided a case
Of similar nature against the defendant
company. The title of the concern in this
suit was the Edison Chemical Company,
but since then it has been heightened into
the Thomas A. Edison. Jr., Chemical
Company.
According to the briefs filed by Thomas
A. Edison, Sr., his son who it is alleged,
never invented a thing in his life sold
his name TO a stock company which was
formed for the purpose of selling various
articles, principally electric vitalizers and
ink tablets. These articles were claimed
to be the invention of Thomas a. Edi-
son, Jr., and in the advertisements Of the
concern he is referred to as the wizard.
This name Thomas A. Edison, Sr., ac-
qured through his many inventions. He
also wants the company restrained from
using that term.
It is understood that young Edison has
repented and has been forgiven by his
father for his indiscretions.

FOrcibIe address Before
the Delaware Society at
Annual Meeting in
Philadelphia

| John p. Nields, United States District
Attorney for Delaware, discussed the
political corruption in this State at a
dinner Of the Delaware Society Of Phil
delphia in the Bellevue-Stratford Sat
urday night.
For the last half dozen years, he said,
the states name had been synonymous
with political debauchery, and to over
come this evil suggested an amendments
to the Federal statutes.
1T is appropriate on occasions OF this
kind to express pride in ones State"
he said. 4 propose to discuss with
Delawareans the States shame For
the last half dozen years Delaware is
a name Synonymous with political de-
bauchery. To qualify that statement IS
to withhold the truth. 1t is often as
serted that there are enough purchase
able votes in Delaware for a corruption
fund to make the State at any election
either Democratic or Republican. do
not affirm or deny that statement.
I'VE all know that a great number OF
citizens in Delaware sell their votes.
It is a damnable condition. 1t has
grown steadily worse in the last ten
years. For many reasons the State
prosecuting officers. whether Democrats
or Republicans. have been wholly un-
able 10 cope with the crime. do not
propose TO dwell upon the matter. 1t
is too well known and too humiliating.
Ever yman who cherishes his home and
State VIII welcome any practical hope
Of relief.

J. p. NIELDS SUGGESTS
REMEDY FOR BRIBERY
NORTH END MEMBERS INDIGNANT
Claim That a slur Has Been Cast Upon
Their Organization.

Members OF the North End Athletic
Club are indignant at an article ap-
pearing in a local paper undeN date OF
November q which intimated that the
money paid to clear off the mortgage
on their new building might have come
from political sources.
In plain words the officers and mem-
bers denounce it as a "dirty slur" cast
upon them without cause or reason
The article referred to applied parti-
cularly to William d. Morrow. record
ing secretary Of the North End Athletic
Club, and was couched in such terms
that it's meaning could not be mlsun-
derstood. AS a matter Of fact although
members. Of the association may have
strong individual political afhhations
politics does not enter into any business
transactions. Members say they work
cd hard and conscientiously TO raise
money with which to burn the mort
,,.~a" and are much incensed that in
Situations should be cast upon them.
'rbe North End Athletic Club members
saw it is strictly an organization de-
voted to physical and social features
and is In no way mixed up in politics.
It is said that legal steps may follow
the publication of the article in ques-
tion.

Not Known How Directors
Melvin and Carter Will
Vote on Matter

When the Otto gas franchise matter
comes up for final disposition at the

fused. Director A. L. Johnson from his

how President Carter and Commis-
sloner Melvin will vote on the question
is not known. Some think. however.

not vote either way. II this opinion
lis borne out action on the matter will
be held up.
Would Not Commit Himself.
Mr.. Johnson was seen by a reporter
for The Evening Journal this morning
but refused TO state positively whether
he would vote for or against granting
the franchise. He said, however, that
he did not look with favor on the new
company.
Don't you think that a competing
gas company would be n good thing
for Wilmington" asked the reporter.
"Well. I don't know. / can't think
Of any city that has more than one
gas company AS fast as a new one
springs up the old one buys It outright.
There is always a way to get around
I the law. You can't keep a company
from selling its stock"
Are you going to vote against

Il can't answer that question until
tomorrow. I win say. however. that
I don't look with favor on this new
company.
