MINNESOTA PRIMARY
LAW CONSTITUTIONAL
Statute Upheld by the State
Supreme Court.

The nonpartisan primary law passed
by the 1913 legislature was upheld In
a decision handed down by the state
supreme court
The court holds that the law did
not violate the section Of the consti-
tuition providing that no law can en-
brace more than one subject. The
court also holds against the conten-
ton of the plaintiffs that the law
contained matter not germane to the
general subject and the contention
that it was special or class legislation.
The law in question provides for
nonpartisan nomination of all candi-
dates for county offices, judicial posi-
lions and for the legislature, changed
the primary date from September to
June, permits the Bull Moose party
to select it's candidates at the general
primary, provides that where there
are no more candidates before the
primary than the number to be nomi-
mated they shall not go on the pri-
mary ticket, and provides for the elec-
ton of county surveyors without pri-
mary nominations.

selected by the anti-Eberhart con-
ference at Minneapolis to make
the primary fight against the present
governor Before the vote could be
announced delegations began chang
ing their votes so rapidly that the
nomination was made unanimous. The
thousand men present cheered loudly
and adjourned feeling satisfied with
the results, since apparent harmony
had been secured out of situation
that promised in advance to end in
fight.
The only fly in the ointment was the
fact that at the end of the proceed
ings, when the other candidates got
up and pledged hearty support to Mr..
Lee, James A. Peterson was not pres
, ent. However, Mr.. Peterson had pre-
violsly agreed to support anybody
but Iverson.
The resolutions were presented by
E. T. Young, former attorney general
! and a candidate against Eberhart in
the last state primary.
The resolutions charge that the Re-
publican party in Minnesota has
abandoned it's time honored princi-
pies and has become an instrument
for the promotion of the sinister pur-
poses OF political machine organized
solely for. spoils.'
| The governor was charged with
neglecting his duties; with failing to

by invisible influences arrayed

and supported by predatory interests. "
His administration has been notori-
ously incompetent, vacillating and ex-
travagant," said one paragraph. He
was scored roundly for vetoing the
Nolan and Minnette bills.
The resolutions urge that the pri-
mary law be so amended as to prevent
the nomination of minority candidates.
The constitutional amendment propos.
ing the initiative and referendum was
endorsed and it's adoption urged.

VILLAS ARMY IS

Advance Guard Thirty-five Miles

Ell Paso, Tex, March pa brief
dispatch received from correspond
ent with General Francisco Villas
Constitutionalist army at Torreon
stated the advance guard of the reb-
els was at Yermo, thirty-five miles
north Of Torreon.
Another dispatch received by the
Constitutionalists' information bureau
at Juarez is supposed to give details
OF the movements of Villas men. The
Juarez officials, however, would make
no details public, merely saying that
the Constitutionalists are steadily
driving in the federals.
These two dispatches apparently
disprove the story that the Constitu-
tionalists had captured Bermijilo and
Mapini. Both Of these places are sub
urbs Of Torreon and much closer than

Clearing out your throat every day:

doing for months. Possibly years. A

granular appearance of the back part
of the throat. Pharyngitis the doc
tors call it.
Perhaps he would call y, folicular

annoyance. You are always making
slight disturbances when seated In an
audience. Can't hold your throat
still. Stringy mucus bothers you.
Worse in the morning.
A-hem! A-hem! A-hem! That is
the way you are going nearly all day.
Sometimes in the night when you
wake up. You ought to gargle your
throat with salt water every morn

out the throat perfectly and makes it
ready for treatment.
Peruna is the treatment. Begin
with a teaSpOOn1ul OeIOTe eacn H1edi
