Supreme Court Orders
No Democratic Column
UPHOLDS PRIMARY LAW AND
SAYS DEMOCRATS MUST GO
AS INDEPENDENTS

The Wisconsin supreme court today
quashed the alternative writ of man
damus issued by it recently ordering
the names of Democratic candidates
for state offices on the general cleo
ton ballot under a party head.
This action by the court brings to
an unsuccessful termination the suit
commenced by the Democratic party
to prove the ten per cent provision of
the state primary law unconstituiion
al.
AS a result of the court action,
Democratic candidates who failed to
obtain the necessary percentage of
votes in the primary election, will now
go on the general election ballot as
Independents. The provision of the
state primary law which requires par
ty candidates in the primary to poll in
the aggregate ten per cent of the total
vote for governor in the last general
election, is upheld by the court.
Democratic candidates who failed to
poll the necessary votes argued that
this provision of the primary law was
an undue restriction of the right of
suffrage and discriminatory. The state
argued that it was a necessary restric-
ton to maintain party integrity.

ties of the State expressed in percent
of normal yield per acre was S1.6
per cent on October /, compared to

cent on October /, compared to con-
dition of SIS per cent a year ago, and
