 Dec ion Of the Court.
 In rendering his decision Judge Martineau sad in substance:
 *'The action brought by Mr. Brun- didge against the State Democratic Central Committee is for inc purpose of compelling this committee to en- certain and determine the contest in the recent primary election The action is brought under Act 37l of the Acts of 1911. It is not the purpose of the action to require the court to settle or determine the contest, but no or der to require the committee tg dc what it is directed to do under the laws of the state.
 "The entire state is interested in the outcome of this contest. The peo Die of the entire state are interested in seeing that \every man who is a candidate for office be given all the rights accorded to him under the law and the courts, so far as the law has given the two power, have the right to see that these men are given the protection of the court the same as all individual who seeks protection in other matters.
 1t is not the purpose or business of the courts to interfere with the ln- ternal affairs of any political party except as the law dictates and pro- scribes. The courts cannot avoid the placed upon them by 1 the law.
 Power to Direct inc Hearing
 "1n this matter the court is asked only to direct and command that the Central Committee conduct this con- test as the law provides it shall be 
 "In my opinion the court has the power to require the committee to discharge that duty. It has the right to prevent the committee from eertl- fvinc to he election of any one candi- date until the contest has been heard but the court has not the right to interfere with or in any manner con trol the action of the State Central Committee.
 "It is the duty of this court Of re- ,uire the State Central Committee to bear the contest under the provisions of the acts of the State and order that such an order be issued and served on all members of the commit
