LEGAL IRREGULARITIES.
Matthews and Kern Override the Law
TO .Dumn, the State Ticket

AZ AEe State IHcket.
In order to have the deal go through Gov
crnor Matthews and Mr.. Kern had to over
ride the law little. When Mr.. Martin filed
his certificate, signed by Chairman Bell of
the State convention, the document set out
all the candidates originally nominated by
the convention. There followed an acknowl-
edged statement from Martin that Jason
E. Brown and the other gentlemen kicked
off the ticket had resigned and ne had nom
mated the five Populists to fill the vacan-
cies. Mr.. Hawkins called attention to this
and pointed out the statute requiring that
Governor and through him 10 the board. 1t
was new to the Popocratic members and
they saw the force or the objection a once
but Mr.. Kern declared they could get the
designations in regular form later and fix
up the record, and insisted upon the mo-
ton he had made that all the tickets be
printed certified. 1t was passed by a
2-to-1 vote, Mr.. Hawkins being given leave
attention to the fact that the Populists in
their certificate swore to the assertion that
in their convention on July q John +. Ston
and nine other Popocrats had been nomi-
mated, thing they all knew to be untrue.
However, the board did not want to go be-
hind the returns and let it go al that. All
the tickets were approved certified and
the printer went to work on the ballots at
midnight.
1t was unnecessary for the Republicans to
resort to legal proceedings to have this
fusion ticket printed under different en-
blemS. Either it did not occur to the Pop
ocratic members of the board that in thus
giving the Populists the chance to vote d
straight PopuI1st ticket that would count
for bryan they were crucifying their own
State ticket or they were anxious to do that
very thing At any rate they We're very
anxious that it should be done that wav
and Mr. Hawkinss legal objections only
made them the more anxious TO do it.
