THEIR REMOVAL WITHOUT ca USE
DECLARED TO BE ILLEGAL.
0srs About Judge simmons Opinion In
the Bucbsnan Contested Election
CAsc-Ths Evidence.

BUCHANAN. VA, Sept. 9o-SpcciaI.-
The opinion OF Judge Simmons in the
buchanan contested election case has an
important bearing upon the Walton law
as 10 several points.
As TO the power OF the judges OF cleo
ton 10 remove tho special constable at
their pleasure he held such remOva! with
out cause Illegal. but II could not be APP
pealed from. but could he inquired into.
In this case. however. the evidence
showed that the Mayor who appointed the
Judges OF election. the judges and the
friends OF these had formed a predetcr-
mined plan TO make such removal and
appoint another special constable. Such
acts were In violation Of the law and null
iined the election.
The evidence in this case showed that
the acting special constable went INTO toe
voting booths with voters when not re-
qucsted. he went In and liked the ballots
for others who could read and write. VINO
did request him: he received from voters
slips OF paper containing the names OF
candidates to be voted for.
Some OF these slips were handed 10 him
after the voters had received Their Official
ballots from the judges. These slips we're
given 20 the voters by outside part .es.
fne special constable took the slips and
h msclf fixed the ballots ia accordance
herewith
Judge simmons held these acts sufficient
to set the election aside.
