UNITED LABOR PARTY.
Supreme Court to Decide the Question
of It's Legal Existence.


of It's Legal Existence.
An effort was made yesterday by the
United Labor party to get the names of
its candidates on the official ballot by ap-
plying to the Supreme Court for a writ
of mandate. This political body on the
18th inst. applied to Registrar Buggy to
have the names of it's candidates placed
on the official ballot. The Registrar re-
fused to do as asked, claiming that the
alleged party had not held a convention
and that the application by petition was a
fraud on it's face. He said that a large
number of the names appearing thereon
were not the genuine signatures of the
persons that they pretended to represent
and that many of the other names were
obtained by fraud and misrepresentation
Yesterday w. P. Grace, chairman Of the
party's committee, applied to the Supreme
Court for writ of mandate to com"el
the Registrar to grant his demand. he
takes the position that the United Labor
party is an organization and at the last
election polled per cent of the total vote.
He meets Biggys objections by stating
that the Registrar has no right to go be-
hind the certificates for his facts. He
says that If the matter Is not decided ny
the 18th inst. it will be too late and his
candidates will be barred by the fact of
the ballots being printed. Chief Justice
Beatty ordered that the writ issue, and
made it returnable to-day at o'clock.
