Must Make Full Report.

Political party convention managers
who are at all f1nical about the pro-
ceedings of their gatherings being
made q matter of record must see to
it beforehand that the record is made
up with only three details entered
which are in essential compliance
with the law, emitting those features
which, if given publicity in the record,
might arise as ghosts to haunt the
political pathway. This fact is re-
vealed in an opinion by Attorney Cen
eral Bancroft to Secretary of State
Frear. wherein 1t Is held that certi-
fed copies of the proceedings of party
platform conventions, which the law
requires shall be filed, shall be the
actual record of such proceedings
and that il in the processes of the
convention roll calls of delegates are
taken, their results must be made part
of the certified proceedings.
1t is suggested, however, that the
convention itself would probably have
the power to determine how detailed
the record of it's proceedings should
be made. But to the extent that the
secretary make detailed entry of ac-
ton taken, such detail must be made
a part of the certified" proceedings.
In another opinion the attorney
general holds that form of petition
submitted by Col c. X. Lush for the
nomination of Roosevelt electors in
the state en- bloc is not in full COM
pliance with the law though the fact
that the names of all the electors
proposed are on one paper does not
necessarily make the petition invalid.
The form submitted" says the at
torney general, does not state the
business or vocation OF the candidate
nor his post Office address as required
by the law, nor from which congress
sional district a particular elector is
nominated, neither which of the Is
delegates are nominated from the
state at large"
The attorney general suggests that
the petition and affidavit follow as
closely as possible the forms pre-
scribed in the statutes.
