The extract quoted contains a

Will now name a separate ticket for

living up to the harmony program

son for such threat? The dissension
over the returns from the Eleventh
voting district.
There, as will be remembered.
George w. Sparks, candidate for
the Senatorial nomination, and
Charles A. Rudolph for the Repre-
sentative nomination, claim that
many votes were cast for them

Sparks and RupOlph stand ready to
prove their claim. Is that the kind
OF action which the Sun calls tritling
and "a breach Of faith" Well. if
Republican candidates have no
right to question the returns Of the

tam they may be that they were
unfairly treated, the party would
better abolish the primaries and
leave the selection Of ticket to
