TO run and the county clerk refused TO
put his name on the official ticket. Demo
cratic County Chairman Mahoney then
brought an action I'm the circuit court TO
compel the county clerk to place kirchies
name on the ticket and won his case.
Judge wyrnan. in his rulings. held that
the law required that a declination be filed
nine days before the election and that IL
was not for the court to put any different
construction on the statute. and therefore
Major Kirchies' name must go on the
ticket. Major Kirchies made an excellent
record in Porto Rico as an army officer
and IL is conceded that he will be elected
by a large majority. but he Is still an
army officer. His regiment may not be
mustered out until long after he has been
elected and he will not accept the office.
The legal fraternity in this city say this
is the queerest case on record and "A great
variety Of opinions are expressed by them
as to the outcome.
