Kan. in which James F. Getty, Republic
can, is contrasting the election of T. A.
Milton, Democrat, to the office of state
senator, was resumed before Probate
Judge Van B. Prather of Wyandotte
county. The matter of opening the bal
lots cast at the last election was raised by
the attorneys for Mr.. Getty and Judge
Prather was requested to order County
Clerk Frank Holcomb to produce the bal
lots which he has locked up in vault in
the court house He declined to instruct
Clerk Holcomb to do so, stating that the
clerk was present in person and that he
could act for himself.
Attorney J. A. Hale, one of Mr.. Getty
counsel then requested Mr.. Holcomb to
open the ballots The clerk refused to do
so, asking that he be given until today in
which to consult his lawyer for the pur-
pose of ascertaining his legal rights in the
controversy. Attorney Hale stated that
unless Clerk Holcomb consented to open
the ballots mandamus proceedings would
be instituted against him and Judge
Prather to force them to open the official
returns.
There are three other contests over
Wyandotte county offices pendlnea and II
the ballots are opened in the Getty case,
the others will learn their fate before
they go into their fights. The senatorial
contest will be finally settled by the state
