In the fourth inning Marmion came

over barb wire fence, but fortunately

officials Of the league. and probably by
the next game the said fence will be

The farmer brings in his products
to the exchange. The manager, in

The company has a coinage of

WANTS TO KNOW
IF LAW F0RB|DS
Blaisdell Believes Circula-
ton of Tickets is a
Violation.

Minot. N. D., April SIS the circu-
lation Of cards or tickets Of the So
called slate order in the primary cam
practice act?
This is the question which Alfred
Blaisdell. candidate for the republican
nomination for congress, asks of At
torney General Miller in the follow
ing interesting letter:
March 80. 1912.-The Honorable
Andrew Miller, Attorney General, Bis
marck, N. D.-My Dear General:
Sec. 9, Chap. 129, Laws of 1911, N.
ID. provides that mo person shall in
order to aid or promote his nomian-
ton directly or indirectly promise to
secure or aid in securing the nomina-
ton of another person, etc"
In your opinion does the statute
forbid any two or more candidates or
set of candidates cooperating and
circulating cards or tickets of the So
called slate order, with their names
and f1c sought thereon, and when
such candidates are jointly c%ontribut-
ing to the expenses thereof, either in
a direct or indirect manner? I apprc-
bend that there is no question but
what this statute does away with the
DID system of establishing headquar-
ters for any of the various sets of can
didates. but does the statute forbid
