and there Is no need sufficient to warrant
the expenditure. He stated that the
presidential primary bill was defeated at
the regular session for the simple and
practical reason that it would have re-
quired two state wide primary elections
in one year. Mr.. Carney while in Topeka
expressed himself as follows on the spe-

special session. he said. In the first place
q legislature should not be used as
place TO settle factional political quaTrels
