 ARGUMENTS ID
 SEPTEMBER DAY

Final argument in the supreme court of the Hunt Campbell governorship contest will not be made until Septem Der, it practically was decided yester day at a conference between the court and the attorneys for both appellant and appellee.
 What the abstract of the appealed case should contain was the principal bone of contention netween E. $. Ives for MT. Hunt. and Judge Sloan for Governor Campbell. The complete ab- which at dollar page, would add not a little to the fee.
 The Hunt attorneys announced that they intended to include only four pre- cincts in their case, the Snowflake Douglas No. l, Wilgus and Pinedale. and desired to file an abstract cover sponded that counsel for Governor twelve precincts, and that a smaller abstract would not suffice
 It finally was decided by the court that the appellant should file such ab stract as he chooses, then if appellee does not consider it sufficient he may file his own. The court then will de- eide whether matters omitted by the appellant should have been included, and if so, he will be taxed accordingly. And if it is decided that the appellants abstract is sufficient the appellee shall pay the additional fees incurred.
