DEMOCRATS IN PICKLE.
Under Restriction of Primary
Law.

PIERRE, S. D., Aug. 1.-THE Demo-
Gratis of this state and of many of the
counties, by partially ignoring the pri-
mary law, at the first trial of its pro-
visions in June, are in worse posi-
ton than if they had completely ignored
it in their effort to show that they did
not believe in its provisions. If the
contentious of State Secretary Wipf are
correct, where a few names were voted
for at the primary they make the Demo
cratic ticket and that any effort to COM
plete a ticket must be through a sec
und ticket under some other name than
Democratic. At least this would be the
Inference to be drawn from his letter to
Thomas T. Ayres. who attempted to file
the names selected by the state conven-
ton at Rapid City and endorsed by the
state committee meeting at Mitchell to
I'LL vacancies" This effort to fill out
n complete Democratic state ticket was
turned down. Whether the case will be
taken into the courts remains to be
seen.

office being made on the grounds that
he is morally unfit to undertake the du-
ties and responsibilities of a position
