RULES ON NEW LAW
ALL TOWN ELECTIONS TO BE
NON~PARTISAN.
Attorney General Makes Ruling Gov.
erning Caucus Law-Nomnat-
ing Meetings Are to
Be Called.

Madison. interest has been
aroused by the 1913 law providing for
nomination of candidates for town and
village officers and for an official ball
lot at the spring election. The law pro-
vides for the use of the Australian
ballot in a modified form.
Atty. Gen. Owen in an opinion to
Dist. Atty. William w. Storms of Ra-
cine county says that the law dis
closed plain intent ON the part of
the legislature to eliminate all party
contests in town and village elections.
This, he says, is but an extension of
the principle of non-partisan elections
made applicable to cities by chapter
of the laws of the special session Of
1912. The caucus referred to, says the
attorney general, is to be non-parti-
san caucus of all the electors of the
town, of whatever political affiliation,
and it is the nominees of such caucus
only who will be entitled to a place
as caucus nominees on the official bal
lot at the election. 1t follows that
there is to be no party designation Of
candidates on the official ballot.
1t does not matter much how this
first caucus is called as long as the
voters of the town are notified of the
time and place of holding it in the
usual manner in which notices of like
nature are given and they are informed
that at a given time and place the
caucus will be held.
The names of those who nominated
at the caucus are to be placed on the
official ballot. In addition names of
those who are nominated by nomina-
ton papers, signed by electors of
town or village, equal in number to
10 per cent of all votes cast in the
community for governor at the last
election are to be placed on the bal
lot. Names of the candidates for
each office are to be arranged alpha
betically.

red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and fiery red

a small blotch on the skin. She kept
scratching at this until in a few days
her whole cheeks were fiery red color
and instead Of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and scaly looking
and seemed to itch and burn very
much.
1--WE used a number Of remedies
which seemed to give relief for short
time then leave her face worse than
