OUTLAW DEMOCRAT
BARRED FROM TICKET

While the law is not clearly definite
on the point, Attorney General Alex.
Lindsay has ruled that the nomination
of s. K. Aoleinoa, representative as
pirant from Maui cannot be officially
recognized and his name placed on the
ballot for the coming election. Thus
the question that has perplexed Terri
torial Secretary E. A. Mott-Smith is
eliminated and that official is sustain
I'd in his belief that an order on the
postoffice, placed In his hands to en-
able him to obtain nomination papers
from the mail for candidates, is not
equivalent to placing them on file in
his Office by the nominees thems elves
In his Interpretation of the law the
Acknowledgement had only one preVi-
Gus court decision to aid him. That
one was the Chandler case, in which
the supreme court held that although
the candidate had mailed his papers be-
fore the date of closing the lists, his
name must be left out because the
mail did not bring the papers to the
Territorial Secretary before the lists
were closed. The present case differs
slightly from the former one, but the
Attorney General considers the differ
ence not sufficient to be material.
