WILL TEST PRIMARY LAW

So many inquiries have come to
the office of Secretary of State A.
NJ. Anderson concerning the meaning
Of the so-called presidential prefer
ence primary law that it has been
determined to get AN expression from
the supreme court as to what the law
really means. Secretary of State AL
derson said Saturday:
because of the fact that the lam
guage Of the so-called preference
primary act is in a manner indefinite
and likewise for the reason that the
act itself seems to fail to provide
machinery for it's operation, it has
been decided to present the matter
to the attention of the supreme
court in order that this body may
The Glasgow courier., 1916-02-11

entire tickets will be nominated in
April and dispense with the August
primary.
"The so-called presidential prefer
ence primary law provides for the
nomination of candidates by petit
tions, but it does not say with whom
these petitions are to be filed. The
language of the act attempting to
fix the percentage of signers on any
petition is likewise ambiguous. The
law also states that an elector may
vote for but one candidate for any
office.
GAS matter of fact there are
eight candidates to be elected to each
national convention, and there are
four presidential electors to be
chosen. If the language of the act
were strictly followed it might be
that only one presidential elector
would be chosen or that only one
delegate to national convention
would be selected.
I'm order, therefore, that there
may be no questions raised as to the
validity of the ensuing elections, it
has been deemed proper to ask the
supreme court to pass upon all of
these questions so that all candidates
for public office may have chance
to have their nominations secured in
a legal fashion.
ut is quite likely that the petition
for writ of mandamus will be filed
early next week. The matter will be
presented for the relator by Albert
j. Galen, former attorney general,
and the defendant, County Clerk Dun
can, will be represented by County
Attorney Mcconnell and Attorney
General J. B. Poindexter."

ing the most careful attention to the
needs of bridge construction in Mon
ANA. 2" e.,
- In talking to the members of the
board Of county commissioners of Yel-
lowstone county, the members of the
state highway commission said that a
uniform system had been adopted,
which calls for competitive bidding in
all counties for material for bridges.
This plan, it is believed, will cheaper
the cost of construction, since all
plans must be approved by the COM
mission, which will insure a uniform
bridge construction throughout the
state.
The matter of the cost of steel cul-
verts was brought out. Mr.. Metlen
brought forward statistics showing
that in the past, there has been wide
variation in the cost of culverts, some
counties paying as high as 1-2 cents
pound, while other counties pur-
chased the same quality of culvert for
as low as 6 cents pound. At present
he stated they can be secured for
5 1-2 cents, in spite of the fact that
steel is much higher at present than
in the past two years. 1t is the in
tention of the commission to estab-
lish uniform basis for purchasing
culverts, so that one county will not
have to pay more for the product than
another.

"For this reason petitions are
now being circulated in Helena in
behalf of William Taylor, who de-
sires to be nominated on the demo-
cratic ticket for the office of public
administrator Of Lewis and Clark
county. In his petition Mr.. Taylor
demands to be placed upon the ticket
for the office Of public administrator
at the primary election to be held
under the so-called presidential
preference primary, the date of
which would mean April 21.
ut has been arranged that, in or
der to test the question, the county
clerk will refuse to file Mr.. Taylor's
petition and that thereupon the su-
preme court will be asked to issue
writ of mandamus to compel the
county clerk to act. The pleadings
in the case will be so arranged that
practically all questions involved in
the construction Of the primary act
will be brought within the purview Of
the court.
There are numerous questions in
volved in the proposed hearing. In
the first place it will be decided
whether those gentlemen who con-
template running for offices other
than presidential electors and dele
gates to national conventions must
enter the primary in April, OF
whether such candidates will not
start until the primary in August.
In other words, the court will be
asked to say whether there will be
two primaries this year-one in April
and one in August-or whether the
