DECIDE ELECTION
CASE TOMORROW
Court viii Determine Who
Get City Treasurer and
COunCiImaniC Jobs

Much interest is manifested in the
decision to be announced tomorrow
morning in the Wilmington City cleo
tion cases. involving the contest Of
DR.. G. M. Almond Of the election Of
Howard d. Ross as city treasurer. and
the contest of Benjamin B. Allen Of
the election of Walter Rash as Coun-
Gilman from the Second ward.
The election was held in June a year
ago, and the decision of the judges
sitting en- banc viii come about a year
later. The case has not been pending
in court that long, however.
The contest was first made before
City Council by DR. Almond and MIR.
Allen, and Council decided that Messrs.
Ross and Rash were not elected and
were not entitled to the seats.
Messrs Ross and Rash took certiorari
proceedings to the court, and asked
for a review of the case. One of the
grounds for attacking the action of
Council was that the contest had not
been held according to law. A con-
tention also was made that the law
under which the last city election was
held was not constitutional, because
of failure OF the Journal Of the
Legislature to show certain entries OF
records Of votes on amendments to the
law.
Robert II. Richards is counsel for
Mr., Ross, and Philip Q. Churchman

RooseVeIf's Speech May Have
Forced Gorsf Out of Egypt

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
LONDON, June Following Colonel
Roosevelt's startling denunciation of
the leniency of British rule in Egypt
in his now famous Giuld Hall speech
with its implied condemnation of the
administration Of Sir Eldon Gorst,
British agent and counsul general in
Egypt, came another surprising de-
velopment to-day in the report that
Gorst is shortly to be recalled.
The report is generally accepted and
is credited to the agitation arising
from Roosevelts arraignmen of Eng
lands policy in Egypt. II is said
that General Sir Francis Reginald
Wingate, sirdar Of the Egyptian army

and governor general Of the Soudan. is
to succeed Gorst.
Roosevelt and Wingate became great
friends while the Colonel was in Egypt
The latter rendered his yacht 10 bring
the Colonel down the Nile from Com
dokoro, Since coming to England.
Roosevelt has had many nice things to
say about Wingate. and this strength
ems the belief that Roosevelt is ploy-
ing an active part in the contemplated
changes in Egypt.
Should the projected changes take
place, there is bound obe another
storm Of criticism aimed at Roosevelt,
based on the charge that he is inter
fering in England's private affairs.

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL
VIII you grant US space IN your valu-
able paper. for after reading about the
Russo case before the Board Of Pardons.
We feel that we would like to set the
minds Of the community straight on the
same regarding the attitude OF the Jr Or
der Of United American Mechanics. First
o. all we would like 10 ask Leonard e.
Wales pointed and personal question
Was il real sympathy for the criminal
that he has lahored 50 diligently for him
or was It not that other organizations had
pledged him a nice fee. to have the man
pardoned2
For tho Jr. Order Of United American
Mechanics We desire 10 cali Mr Wales
attention to the fact that this order not
only upholds the constitution in every
way. but it believes in the holy constitu-
tion that preceded the constitution Of
which he speaks
The order did ask for a speedy trial and
conviction. It did not once ask for the life
Of the man It was willing to let the jury
pass on and recommend such penalty as
in their Judgment under the same law that
Mr.. Wales would have tried to apply had
he been employed by the state instead Of
his client.
Does Mr.. Wales recall the horrible White
affair. all because he was not given a
speedy trial? DO not the laws OF the state
of Delaware provide for Just such cases
as this? Where then was unconstitution-
ality Of the order asking for a speedy
trial? win Mr.. Wales explain through
your columns why II is necessary TO have
court carried on at great expense TO
the taxpayers. honored and learned judges
TO instruct the jury in every case that
comes before II. whose verdict can be set
aside at any time by two or three per-
sons7
Mr. Wales declared that Russo had been
honestly tried by a court and jury
What more can he ask than to be hon
estly tried2
How many people would Mr.. Wales have
killed had he shot every one that hit him
with a snow ball?
How many times would he have been
shot for throwing snow balls? We inn
agine he was the same as ali other boys
who paved all kinds Of play even though
some was considered rough.
III II was the only Christian act to do
70 pardon this man. why could he not
have been pardoned on condition that he
leave the country? The mere fact OF him
being imprisoned for life will not deter
others Of his like from doing the same
thing.
viii Mr.. Wales openly say whether he
would have signed a petition the same as
he took to Dover with him had Russo
taken the life OF one OF his children? Can
he find any one who has ever experienced
anything like it who would have signed it7
Does he recall the fact that the father of
this victim openly said he would not inter
fere but would be satisfied with the YER
dict Of the court, which verdict should
stand2
