II was not sick exactly, just run

PREPARE FOR ELECTION.
Candidates Told How to Get Their
Names on the Ballot.

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 6.-Enquiry
has been made at the Office of the
secretary of state for information as
to how candidates may get their
names on primary election tickets in
the primaries to be held next year
for United States senator, congress
men, judges, etc. The primary cleo
ton will be held in August. Any
person desiring to run as Democrat
must give notice of his candidacy to
the secretary of the county executive
committee in each county Is days De-
fore the election is to be held.
Some time prior to the date OF the
primary the county election commit
tees will meet and arrange for the
printing of the ballots and the ex-
penses of the primary election. This
expense is prorated and each candidate
bears his proportionate part. Be
fore the candidates name is placed on
the ballot he must pay this prorata
in each county.
Usually candidates send their checks
to some particular personal friend in
each county, who sees that the money
is paid and that the candidates name
is on the ballot.
