Set Faneral of Jonas B. Ellis. AN OLD CITIZEN WHO WAS PROMINENT BEFORE THE WAR BURIED IN CONGRESSIONAL CEMETERY. ‘Mr. Jonas B. Ellis, an old and respected citizen of the District, died at his residence, No. 1306 B street southwest, on Monday morning last, aged Seventy-one years. Mr. Ellis was a native of Vir- ginia, but came to East Washington when a youth, and learning the business of engineer and ma- ehinist in the navy-yard worked there for many Years, the latter part of the Ume as quarterman under his brother, the late W. M. Elis, master machinist. For many years he was an active fire- man, and was the president of the old Anacostia Fire Company, He represented the old Sixth Ward in the Board of Common Counell thirty-five years ago, and after moving to South Washington he ‘Was sent to the same board from that section. He also served several terms as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Public Schools. As a member of the couneils he was zealous in his advocacy of the public-school interests and the fire department. He Was chairman of the committee on fire depart ment when the transition was made from the old volunteer system to the paid department, and it Was owing to his efforts, in a great measure, that the new system was adopted. In politics Mr. Ellis was an old-line whig, and was a Warm admirer of Presidents Taylor and Fillmore, serving under the latter as Warden of the old penitentiary. Before the war, with his brother, he embarked in the foundry’and machine business, on Ohio avenue, near 13th street, but retired therefrom some years Since, and the latter part of his life he passed In comparative quietness at his home, on B street south. His funeral took place this afternoon, and Was attended by a large number of the old familles of the city. Kev. Joseph T.

The plaintiffs state that the respon- dents have undertaken to impose water rates to take effect July 1 last, and assert that the only power they have is under section 107, R.8.

Doves, Dat, Sept. 20, 1887.—Generally Itttle Delaware has ‘an election but once in every two years. This year, however, there is an excep- tion to the rule, and the people will be called upon in November to exercise their right of franchise. For several years there has been an effort on the part of a few persons living in the “three counties on the Delaware” to have some radical changes made in the organic law of the State. At first these would-be reformers were alone, but by per- sistent efforts they at last succeeded in awaken- others to the necessity of working ous the re- ta ea tual today the frleads of reform are sanguine of vure: it to success. The last session of the an act giving to the people of the State the vote for or against a constitutional convention. ‘Tne election to be held in November is for the Pur. or 1e @X} m of the Bae ee cnaeateh te ROD a sembly will call a convention. On the other hand, Af the negative votes outnumber the affirmative, the question of a convention will be dropped for time indefinite. ‘The present constitution 1s old, and, 1t8 opponents say, does not meet the . ‘require ments of the times, It was framed in 1831, and John M. Clayton was the prime mover in that con- vention, ‘There are many reasons assigned by the friends of reform why Delaware should have & new constitution. ‘The most prominent ones are: First, the judges and the county officers should bé elective and not appointive. Second, increased representation in the general assembly for New Castle County, aud third, district representation. Reason No, 1 has more force than all the others put together, from the fact that many believe the (Sas has too much power in that direction. ‘ith the exception of the United States Senato! Representative in Congress, State treasurer, an auditor, the governor appoints all the officers, and Af he wishes he can override the will of the people and appoint whom he pleases to office. In urging reason No. 2, New Castle County stands alone. ‘She claims that she is entitled to increased repre- sentation because she has double the population of the other two counties. ‘Ihe counties of Kent and Sussex say they recognize that fact and would lke to help their sister county New Castle, but Uhey are not willing to increase her reppesenta- on, and make her within a very few votes of being as strong as they are in the general assem- bly. The two lower counties fear New Castle, and should Delaware vote to have a new constitution 1do not believe New Castle will get. the represen tation she will ask for. ‘The constitutional party is made up irrespective of other party ti and = ng from the present outlook one would conclude that the new party is in a fair way of carrying the day at the pol ‘he tight will be an interesting one. .
