The court divided on the subject. jus.
tice Norcross wrote the opinion, and IL
was concurred in by Justice Talbot.
Chief Justice Sweeney dissented and
wrote dissenting opinion.
Justice Norcross, after reviewing the
points at issue. states In his opinion
that, when it appears that the petition
presented shows such q large number
of signers in excess Of the peroen tsge
required, and all ask tina, the name
Progressive be used. 1t ought to be
used. Justice Talbot comments on
the shortness Of the time for consider
alton Of all the points, but says thai
he concurs with most Of the views laid
down by Justice Norcross.
Chief Justice Sweeney says that a
press report concerning . decision on
the Kansas situation takes the position
that the relief sought Is not warranted
under a statement Of facts, and . con.
dition of the law very much similar to
that presented in this State.
