DEMOCRATIC N

In reference to the question OF the
formation OF the ballot to be used in
the June primary concerning the mat
ter of annexation, Chairman Powers,
of the council committee on annexa-
ton, said last night that the result
OF the vote on the question would have
no effect upon the committee.
IF the vote indicates that a spe-
cial election be desired by a majority
Of voters" said mr.. Powers. and a
special election is called, who can
call 1t and who will have to pay the
expenses?
1.-THE city Democratic committee
fund on hand, for that fund is for
the purpose of conducting party cleo
tons, and not general elections The
city council cannot appropriate money
for the purpose of holding a special
election, for the law prescribes the
method and conduct of elections. So
where will the funds come from?
"If the city committee calls an cleo
ton 1t must be simply a Democratic
election. and the only way 1t could be
made a general election would be
through possible action by the plans
committee in inviting all citizens, OF
whatever political inclination. to take
part in the election"

1T is perfectly legal" said Mr..

not act under the Byrd bill. If it
did the expenses and the fees would
have TO go through the hands Of the

under the statute passed by the legis-
lature In 1894. This act specifically
grants the city committee the right
