CONVENTION HAS
LITTLE POWER

THE general purpose Of the primary
election law is to have candidates for all
Offices other than those specifically ex-
cepted voted for and nominated by direct
vote Of the people comprising the par
ties within the law. The party state con-
vention is given no nominating power
over candidates for senator, except in a
case where there were two or more can
didates for the nomination voted for I'm
the primary and neither has received a
majority, in which case alone the conven-
tion selects the nominee.
"A failure Of the state committee to
select a candidate for the nomination to

might be felt that II would In the cir

THE unsatisfactory operation of the

Sallee Gets Ruling Democratic
State Body Must Name
Man for Senator.
w. V. ROCKER DIFFERS

An opinion in which it is declared that
1t is mandatory for the democratic state
committee to select candidate for Unit
ed States senator to replace Thomas Tag
CART on the democratic primary ballot
has been received by A. c. Sallee, chair
man, from a committee appointed sew
eral weeks ago to guide the committee
in legal matters.
The opinion, which will probably be
followed by the state committee inso-
much as it is the opinion of a committee
created to guide the state committee in
such matters, is an amplification of the
views expressed recently by w. w. Spen-
Ger, who is a member of 1t.
At the same time that this opinion was
received an opinion was made public
by W V Rocker. in which he takes
the grounds that Mr., Taggart can not
and has not legally withdrawn his name
from the ballot.
TEXT OF OPINION
FROM COMMITTEE.
The opinion of the democratic com
mittee is as follows:
Hon. Charles Sallee, chairman demo-
cratic state committee:
Dear Sir-You have asked us to ad-
wise you as TO the duty of the democratic
state committee in the circumstances OF
the withdrawal of the name of Hon.
Thomas Taggart as candidate for the
nomination for United States senator,

Mildred Harris Chaplin, who announced
today that she would seek a legal sep

Mrs. Chaplin did not make IL clear
whether she would file suit for divorce

clared that her husbands coldness and
neglect had made life with him unbear-
able for her.
"He finally deserted me altogether.

settlement Of $25, 900 from him and file
suit for divorce in Nevada he would start
such suit against me-" said Mrs. Chap

THE FREIGHT CAR SHORTAGE

Freight ears simply do not exisi in sufficient numbers to 20 around. They are lacking for exactly the same rea- son that keeps housing from being ep to requirements. During the war, new houses and new railroad ears did not receive their proportionate share of attention Our Railroad Administra- ton acknowledges that acquisition of freight cars during federal control was less than under private control. and that none at all were ordered in 1919.
 Even if there were adequate equip n4ent in ears, it would be tested; traf- fe .s heavy The Railroad Admins tf.ation announced that week in Jan uary, 1920, showed l62, ,oo0 more cars of freight loaded than the cores bonding week in 1919. and 216,000 more than for the corresponding week in 1918. At the same time there was prospect of still heavier traffic in Feb ruary and March.
 Scarcity in freight cars is q world wade condition. Germany. Austria, France and Engiand join us in long ing for freight cars. In England the railway wagon shortage is one of the real themes of the hour among business men, and 1t seems likely that demufrage rates will be assessed as high as S7.50 a day for folk who de- tain a freight ear of special type.
 As for ourselves. the immediate prospect is for a Congressional inyes- tigation. It will be interesting to see which will be the more efficaeious in making freight cars available,-a heavy demurrage levy or an investi- gation.-The Nations Business.
