DECISION .|S:.UP
TO THOMAS HALL
State Secretary Holds Key
to Special Session of
the Legislature
MILLER'S OPINION
BEING SCRUTINIZED
Contended that Assembly Can be Con-
fined to One Question-Governor
Hanna just Receives Opinion for
Which He Asked last August.

Bismarck, N. D.. Oct. 2s.--That
there will be no extra session Of the
North Dakota legislature this winter
to amend the law pertaining to elec-
tjon of. United States senator's as has
been predicted for some time is the
belief at the capital. Last August
Governor Hanna submitted the matter
to Attorney General Miller for an off,
cial opinion on the subject. The at
session is not necessary as the secre-
tary Of state may place the names on
the ballots and that he is permitted
to do so within the intent and spirit
Of the law.
May Take Up Any Subject.
Attorney General Miller states in
his opinion that he finds nothing in
the law of the state by which the gov
ernor can limit the action of the leg
islatufe to any one subject and states
the members may take up whatever
may come to them.
A perusal Of the attorney senerars
matter il up to the governor as to
whether or not a special session shall
be called. Governor Hanna made the
following statement:
Governors statement.
"The attorney general of the state
has rendered an opinion with refer
ence to the primary and genral cleo
ton laws Of the state as they apply
to the nomination and election of
United States senator's. and their ap-
plication to the seventeenth amend
ment Of the federal constitution,
which provides that United States
senator's shall be elected by direct vote
Of the people.
Y> % ,skn -
follow the attorney generals opinion
and will place the names of the can
didates Of the different pa rites who
shall receive the highest vote for the
United States senate at. the primary
election to be held next June. upon the
general election ballot for the general
election to be held next fall the call
ing OF special session Of the legis-
lature will not be necessary"
Guided by law.
Thomas Hall. secretary OF state,
when asked what he will do as to
placing of the names Of the. success
tors at the June primary on the gem
eral election ballot to be held in the
fall, said: 1.-THE duties of the secre-
tary of state are purely ministerial,
not judicial in any sense. I will be
guided solely by the laws governing
the primary general elections"
He has not seen the opinion Of the
attorney general until yesterday aft
ernoon and has not had sufficient time
in which to study the several propo.
sitions presented.
Ia Yet indefinite.
However from a cursory reading of
the decision, Secretary Hall noticed
that the attorney general holds that
the subject, "is open to question: even
yet. particularly as to the necessity
for change in our present statutes
governing elections. Mr.. Hail feels
that the matter is too important and
as yet too indefinite for him to be able
to say at this time just what his ae-
ton will be.
