RULING BY SUPREME COURT
PUTS THEM IN BAD SHAPE
FOR FILINGS.

Fargo. N. D., March 2.-The Non
partisan leagues ticket of delegate
and presidential elector candidates
may fail to get on the ballot for the
republican presidential primary elec-
ton to be held on March 16, accord
ing to indications last night.
The Supreme court at Bismarck
Saturday refused to assume jurisdic-
tion in the suit brought by the Non
partisans to compel the secretary of
state to accept their petitions. Other
candidates of other factions have filed
individual petitions in accordance
with the secretary's ruling that only
individual petitions are permissible
under the law.
Sunday the Nonpartisan league ad-
herents here began the circulation OF
individual petitions. They must have
more than 500 signatures by 5 o'clock
this afternoon and had made little
progress before last night.
