SUPREME COURT REvERsEs Or
DER OF JUDGE ALLEN TO
PLACE TICKETS ON BALLOT.
ALL THE JUSTICES ACT
TWO OF THE SEVEN JUSTICES
DISSENT FROM THE DECISION
AS RENDERED..

Denver.-The Supreme Court Mon
day decided that the Anti-Guggenheim
and Business Mems state tickets filed
by the so-called Evans faction of the
party should not go on the official bal
lot and Immediately after the decision
was rendered the leaders of that fac
tion decided to withdraw the county
tickets of the same names.
The entire bench of the Supreme
Court sat en- banc on the question.
though three of the members had previ-
ously refused to act on the ground that
being candidates, they could not par
ticipate with propriety.

opinion reversing the decision of Judge
Allen that ordered Secretary of State
O'Connor to place the tickets on the
ballot and Chief Justice Steele and
Justice Bailey dissented.
The proceedings in court were spir-
tied and Attorney N. Walter Dixon,
after challenging the right of the three
judges to sit on their own case. stopped
in the middel of his presentation of the
case and asked leave to be excused
from further discussion of the matters
involved. The proceedings technically
were on the question of granting final.
ly the writ of habeas corpus praying
the release from the custody of the
sheriff of Secretary O'Connor. In
truth they took up the merits of the
entire case on which Chief Justice
Steele and Justice Bailey, Campbell
and Gabbert were unable to agree last
week.
Attorney Charles W. Waterman ap.
peared for the regular Republican or.
ganization and presented the charges
of fraud that been made against the
petitions for the two disputed tickets.
He scored the decision of Judge Allen
in the lower court and declared that
Allen had refused to permit them to
introduce their evidence to substanti-
ate these charges. He laid particular
stress on the portion of Judge Aliens
decision holding that the candidates
on the regular party tickets had no
right to say whether or not they would
accept Endorsements from any other
party, but must accept them If given.
He argued that this was the worst kind
of bad law, for it made it possible un-
der such a decision for INSCRIPTIONS
persons to take any advantage they
wished of candidates they sought to
defeat.
The members Of the court, after
hearing the arguments. retired to their
chambers and in short time handed
down their decision reversing Judge
Allen in every particular and ordering
County Clerk H. c. Smiley and the
Smith-Brooks Printing Company to re-
frain from placing the questioned tick
cts on the ballots.
