Galloway contests.

Argument on the demurrer TO the
suit to set aside the Democratic pri-
mary held in Galloway county last
November because OF alleged irregu-
larities. was heard by Hon. d. II.
Hughes, of Paducah. special Judge
selected to try the case, yesterday.
The suit was fled by defeated candi-
dates at the primary after notice OF
contest had been filed before the
county committee. but did not APP
pear to prosecute their contest when
the committee met to consider Il.
The demurrer argued yesterday
was to the jurisdiction OF the state
courts In the matter. Judge Hughes
reserved his decision for further con-
federation.
The grounds alleged for the suit
by the contestants is that the Official
call made by the committee for the
primary did not comply with the stat
utes inasmuch as young men who
would be 21 before the general cleo
ltion, for which the nominations were
made, were allowed to vote. as has
been the custom In primaries in this
county for years.
II is also alleged that the commit
tee did not post notices that the cleo
tion was to be held 40 days prior to
the date fixed as required by law.
Attorneys for the successful candi-
dates contend that the governing au!
thority OF the party was the recourse
of the contestants and that they
should have. appeared before that au'
thority and made their pleas.

And the Fels-Naptha is the right way

A STANDARD BRED HORSE.

A SIANOAhO 6H6O t1O6Se'
Bismarck is now the home of one
of the best bred trotting stations in
North Dakota. Mr.. Orris w. Roberts,
of the local weather bureau, recently
purchased the registered standard
bred trotting stallion, Governor Shaw,
37345. This horse is a beautiful seal
brown, stands seventeen hands high
and weighs in normal condition 1860
pounds. He is eight years old and
for the past four seasons has been
in the stud. He has never been raced
but in his two-year-old form was
driven miles in 1928 by Mr.. H, Woods,
who raised him. He is stylish in &C.
ton, and in conformation is as near
perfect as it is possible to find. That
this horse is royalty bred, a glance
at his tabulated pedigree will show.
