Revision Commission in Doubt About
Election Laws.

.JeffekOn City. Mo, Nov. 1.-The
legalit: OF the Kansas City election
law cane up before the revision com
mission today Senator Z. " Major
and representative ]. T. Blair, edi-
tors aad compilers OF the revised
statuesO OF 1899, submitted the mat
ter OF 1.-THE compilation of the st.
Louis and Kansas City election laws
to the eyision commission this even
ing, assing for direction as to how
the eledion laws OF 1898, applying to
cities 81 over 100 900, should be
treated
The Sesbit bill, applying to st.
Louis, repeals by special mention the
act OF 800, which, with amendments
OF 1897 and 1899, applies to Kansas
City.
The commission decided to com
pile am publish both laws in the re-
vised statutes.
This action indicates they do not
cOnsida' the legislature intended to
reveal The 1895 act i'll passing the
Nesbit bill. This question will be
heard II the supreme court on Nov.
Is. but it will be some time perhaps
before an opinion will be rendered
The committee could not await this
action as the chapter is being pre-
pared or the publishers, appearing
in the ,econd volume. The editors
compiling preferred to have the direc-
ton oithe committee, and for tina t
reasonsubmitted the matter to them
for acton.
1t appears the editors of the stat
utes, eading the closing section OF
the ST. Louis election law, believed
that itrepealed the law which the
Kansas City law, or Cardwell bill,
amended in the following: ''All acts
and parts OF acts inconsistent or i'll
cOnfiid with this act are hereby re-
pealed and the act entitled An act
to creit n board of election commits
sioners, etc, approved May 81, 1895,
is hereby repealed" As the matter
now stands the committee has left
both ;cts in the statutes for the SUI
premecourt to determine their lie,
galitvland should that tribunal hold
that the act of 1895 is repealed, then
Kansas City will be left without a
regist fation law and will come under
the provisions of the general election
laws Of the state. 1t is stated that
some of the members of the commit
tee favored leaving the Kansas City
law ont of the statutes and i'll the
event that the supreme court held il
operative to print it in the appendix
