Justice Jaycox has decided th.t Frederick C. Ilicks is legally entitled to a aeat in Congiess. The election -was held in 1914. The result was ao close, though cn the face of return. Mr. Hicks' election wes indicted, it was contested. That Mr. Hick, waa fairly eiecttd, be hadn't the slightest doubt of. Tbe Bo.rd of Canva.sers too found tiiat he had a plurality, and wben tbe contest waa maUe he natur¬ ally felt that he ihouid defend it for his own respect as well as for the in¬ terests qf tbe Repoblican cauM. Tbere has been a statement to tbe effect tbat tbo-e representing the interests of Mr. Brown woold take their case to Con¬ gress. It wonid be a gracious act on tbe part of Mr. Brown to abide by tbe decision of the people and not make a farther contest on party lines in Con- gTMS. We hold too high c pinion of Mr. Brown's bonorableneM to believe any proceeding of tbii kind will hav« hi. approval.-^HefflpBtead SsntineL
