Predicts Il viii be Unsatisfactory.

Norfolk, Madison county, north Ne

This first primary will be held with.
out any legal steps in opposition from
ex-senator Allen, who has at different
times during the summer stated his
intention of attacking the new law
which he declared to be both objection
able and unconstitutional Senator
Allen was up from Madison yesterday
In connection with the Boche case and
announced to The News that no legal
action would be directed against the
new primary during the coming week.
"My attitude toward this enactment
OF the last legislature has not chang
ed" said Senator Allen. 81 still hold
my former objections to It, But my
friends have advised me very strongly
to hold off until after Tuesday.
These friends have pointed out that
| II would be well to let this new law
go to the test, being confident that
| from its many Objectionable features
the people will be dissatisfied with the
result that 1t produces in actual prac.
tice. For myself have been rather
busy these last few weeks and have
not had time to give much thought to
any line of procedure against this law
But think the defects Of the law will
stick up plainly enough after Tues
day"
