Question Of Eligibility
DELAYS Business

The report of Attorney General
j. 0. Wolcott, Herbert H. Ward,
and 7. Bayard Heisel, the members
of the Revised Code Commission, to
which the special session of the
Legislature has referred the ques-
ton Of ;he eligibility Of six of the
members, is awaited with interest.
The members referred to are Sen
ator Harris, Speaker of the House
Holcomb and Representatives Coop
er, Mcdonald, Swan and Stoeckel
The report was to be made today.
The attorney general and code
commissioners were in conference
the greater part of yesterday, but
last night, in advance of the pre-
sentation Of their report, they
would not make the nature of their
report public, declaring it would
not be fair to the Legislature.
In their consideration Of the sub
jects the attorneys have before
them two precedents, each Of which
covers two of the points raised in
this instance. One is that of NJ
Howard Jester, who resigned the
postmastership Of Wilmington and
went to Dover and participated in
the special session of 1906, at which
Colonel H. A. dupont was elected
United States Senator, Mr.. Jester
having been elected representative
from the Third district of Whining
ton at the preceding general cleo
ton. Following the adjournment
of the special session Mr. Jester was
reinstated as postmaster. While
his eligibility to sit as member of
the Legislature at the special ses-
sion was widely discussed, it does
not appear to have been formally
questioned by the Legislature. If
this can be regarded as tenable
precedent it will probably have a
bearing on the case Of DR.. Cooper,
who resigned his federal Office some
days ago.
Another precedent is found in
case of Granville P. Alexander, who
though elected as the representative
from the First district of Whining
ton, moved into the Third district,
and, while living there, served as a
member Of the "Little Legisla-
ture" to settle with the state off
GERS in 1912.

The Progressive party of New
Castle county in convention Satur-
day at A. O. U. Hall, Wilmington
nominated a straight ticket for

themselves early in the convention
as opposed to flirting with the

action was taken by the convention
on this subject and before it ended
several Democratic and Republican
candidates had been nominated, it
being considered better political
wisdom to do this. The ticket nom-
mated was as follows:

Football AT Delaware

Delaware College, in it's first
game Of the season, played at Eas-
ton last Saturday, was defeated by
Lafayette by the score of Al to O.
The play with Lafayette was not,
however, so one-sided as the score
would indicate. Delaware defend
ed well at times and the Lafayette
interference, which was not so good
prevented many gains. Most of the
play was near the center OF the
field and Lafayette ran up her big
score because long plays succeeded
when the Maroon and White team
was within striking distance OF the
goal. 1t was only in the third per-
iod that Lafayette consistently
tore the Delaware team to pieces on
straight football.
