contest must be filed within five days
with the county clerk, after the re-
turns have been made.
Two years ago Mr.. Hall failed to
file his notices and the court decided
that the statute was mandatory IN It's
nature, and would not hear the suit.
The same situation existed in Houston
and Fort Worth, and the same ruling
applied"
Judge Falvey then read that part of
the election laws bearing on the ques-
ton he had raised. The law specified
that the returns should be made to the
county chairman. That was done" said
the Judge. ''The list of candidates who
received the highest number of votes
must then be made up and published"
the judge continued That was done
Declares Notice Not Observed.
Judge Falvey contended that the
notice required by law had not been
observed by the ants prior to bring
ing the contest and for that reason the
committee did not have the right to
entertain the suit The mode prescribed
by the statute, he said, was mandatory,
and as it had not been followed there
could be no contest of the election
There is no contest" judge Falvey
declared Settled fully to go into the
proposition with that paramount duty
staring US in the face. 1t would involve
hundreds of dollars, and time"
Seymour Thurmond: Consideration
of the fact that this hearing may
consume time is not a question to be
considered I do not anticipate such
an expenditure of time as the counsel
suggested.
zach of you are judge of the
proposition that this matter has to go
to some other court because this COM
mfttee cannot control. We are here as
a quasi judicial body. at least. We
are here as a special tribunal created
by law to hear the matters brought
forth by the litigants.
q am not unmindful of the fact that
a district court of this county got rid
of a matter like this by a subterfuge.
There is no provision of the election
laws which makes it a prerequisite.
This is not an election"
ThurmOnd's Contention.
Mr. Thurmond contended that the
law cited by judge Falvey was not
applicable to the case
All returns of election precincts

committee" said Thurmond, there is no
way to get at the fact that there might
have been a fraudulent election. There
