Des Moines. May 1O.-There will be
no excuse whatever for failure Of any
political party to have a county ticket
in the field this year even tho candi-
dates were backward in pressing their
claims and failed to get on the printed
ballots.
Attorney General George Cosson has
fices if there have been votes cast for
candidates by writing in Of the names.
but failure to nominate for any rea-
son. the county convention will have
jurisdiction and the right to fill out the
ticket. This will be the case whether
10 per cent of the county vote was
cast or not.
The last legislature amended the
primary law to shut out the making of
nominations for county and township
offices, where there had been failure to
file the papers, by vote of just a
few Of the electors who would write
in the names on the ballots. The
amendment requires 10 per cent of the
county vote of the party to make a
ny tllS NTltlNS III pro-
cess.
Statute Literally Construed.
Some persons were disposed to hold
that unless 10 per cent of the vote
was thus cast the county convention
could not act: but the attorney gen
eral holds that the failure to get 10
per cent of the vote operates exactly
as the failure to secure 35 per cent on
a state nomination would operate or
in case of tie vote anywhere. 1t fol-
voted for by writing in the names. and
nobody gets the needed 10 per cent.
the county convention can do the rest.
1t required a somewhat liberal con-
struction of the statute to reach this
conclusion. but Attorney General Cos
son has leaned toward this liberal
construction on the theory that the
purpose of the law was to make it as
easy as possible to secure nominations
and not the purpose Of the law to de-
prive any party Of the right Of making
nominations where 1t would be just as
we'll to have the nominations made.
It is reported that out in the state
there are many counties where there
were no candidates announced FOR
county offices merely because of the
unwillingness of available persons to
go thru the machinery of the primary.
In all such cases the decision opens the
door for a nomination by convention
With very little trouble.
