Attorney General Poe Defines the
Senatorial Primary Law.

Attorney. General Edgar Allen Poe an
nounced recently that he construed the
Primary Election Law to mean that the
candidates for nomination for the United
States Senatorship can enter until 90
days before the primary. September s
has been settled upon as the primary
date
There has been some question as to
whether the entries would not close 80
days before. The law prescribes 80 DAYS
for Governor. Comptroller Attorney
General and Clerk OF the Court Of APP
peals-the State offices at the time Of
the p ssage Of the act-anG 20 days for
all other Offices. 1t was suggested that
for Senator the same period would apply
as for the other State Offices. Mr.. Poe
holds, however, that in the absence Of
specific provision for 80 days the gen
eral provision of 20 days applies.
Governor Goldsborough said the past
few DAYS that he would probably issue
the writ of election for the Senatorship
within the next ten days.

primitive pottery has been found IN
them; not for the dead. though some
