PRIMARY BALLOT TO
Use DISTRICT PLAN
FOR CONGRESSMEN
oosition Take That Federal
Law Is Superior to Defect
i've State Measure.

Pierre. S. d.. Sept. 15.-While the
defective Richards primary law makes
no provision for nominating congress-
men by districts in this state, the
official primary ballots will be pre-
pared to permit OF this arrangement.
The attorney general and state audi
tor, who are the authorities On out
lining the official ballot, will take the
position hat the federal appoition-
ment act has precedence over state
regulations with reference to con-
gressional affairs.
At the time the Richards law was
originally prepared there were only
two congressman in South Dakota and
both of these We're nominated n
elected Mt large. The condition had
shifted to three congressman. elected
by districts. when the primary law
was adopted. but 1t was an initiated
measure, very c~arelessly edited and
this was one OF hundreds OF defects
that was adopted with the bill.
Nc plan has yet been formulated to
circun1vent the serious defects in the
law with reference to nomination OF
circuit and supreme court judges.
Under Il strict Interpretation of the
law no candidate for judge, residing
outside of Pierre. can circulate n
file a nominating petition in conform
1ty to the rules prescribed.

ANXIOUS TO GET RID OF
CITY FARMER CROP

Hettinger, N. D.. Sept. 1.-THE Het-
finger Commercial club has evolved a
unique way to bring actual farmers,
men who will till the soil rather than
hold land for an advance in prices, for
speculative purposes. Realizing that
many of the homesteaders who took up
land In the vicinity of Hettinger are
scnooI teachers, lawyers n other pro-
fesslonal men, who either cannot or
Will Tot for one reason or another, farm.
the Ian themselves, the Commercial
club has arranged to sell all such lands
for the owners at public sale, provided
the purchasers are BONA 1de farmers,
Who are purchasing the land for the
purpose of living on. it and c~ultivating
1t for their own benefit. In such cases,
the club will sell the land to the high
est bidder, charging no commission
whatever for its work.
An extensive advertising campaign in
eastern states will be made, in order
that people in that section who want
to better their condition may under
stand exactly what this section of the
northwest has to offer them, and sales
will be held. at regular intervals. Pros
pective buyers will be encouraged to
arrive at Hettinger a day or two. at
least, before h auction sales, in order
to familiarize themselves with condi-
tons, and gain an idea Of the value Of
the lands upon which they may desire
to bid.

DIRECT ELECTIoNOF
SENATOR MAY CAUSE
AN EXTRA SESSION
Question Whether Present
South Dakota Law Is Ade-
quate for New Provision.

Pierre, S. D.. Sept. 13.--There is an
open and growing question whether the
existing South Dakota statutes are
adequate to formation Of a legal ballot
for direct election of United States
senator's. If it develops that the reg
ulattons are lame in that respect Gov
ernor Byrne will call an extra session
or the legislature to remedy defect.
The federal legislation for direct
election of United States senators was
not ratified by the requisite number
of states until after the South Dakota
legislature a adjourned. therefore
the adjustment was o legitimately
before the last legislature.
There has been some suggestion that
a former enactment may be classed as
good law for the present emergency,
but that is not in any way definite.
The statute in question was classed as
unconstitutional. but it's provisions
would now be constitutional since the
change in federal laws.
The point at issue seems to be about
this: Can a law that has been passed
upon as unconstitutional be restored to
q constitutional standing by subse-
quent legislation removing the restric-
tions?
Governor Byrne n Attorney Cen
eral Johnson will go over the legal
situation carefully in a short time, as
to regulations affecting the new sys-
tenn of electing United States senator's,
and the decision will then be made as
to the necessity for an extra session.

this party and had no time to make
preparations except to get in the car
