G. 0. ELECTION
Many Republican Nominees

/ High Sheriff Jarrett win probably

as a result of the Republican claim
that these four candidates-C. 81.

Watkins and w. T. Rawlins-received
majority Of all the ballots cast for
the office in the primary last Satur-
day and under the new law are elect.
ed outright.
At the same time 1t is entirely prob
able that some successful Republican
candidates for the legislature on the
other islands viii take similar action
to get their elections declared act
complished.
Under the law the high sheriff In
this county and the sheriffs Of the 9TH
er counties issue the certificates OF
election to successful candidates IN
the general election. II being held by
the Republicans that members Of the
legislature can be chosen outright at
the primary, they aIe planning to
bring legal action IL necessary to Sc
cure their certificates OF election now.
A whole raft of nice legal questions,
the kind that the deep-thinking attor-
neys revel in. are brought up by the
present situation. Several OF the
knotty points were spoken Of yester.
day. One that is discussed today Is:
If the Republican candidates who re-
ceive a majority Of the votes cast ara
declared elected and their names do
not go on the official ballot IN No
vember, will only the names Of the
candidates not receiving majority
go on the ballot? Or win the names
of the candidates next highest but
not nominated in the primary also go
on the ticket? At first sight this ques-
tion looks almost foolish. but 1t is
pointed out by legal authority that 1t
may have to be considered seriously.
1t looks certain now that the su-
preme court will have to pass on these
questions and the party leaders hope
they can be settled within the next
two weeks, before the active cam.
