LAWYERS VIEWS ON
"VOTE FOR TWO

The action of the supreme court in
deciding on the form of Non partisan,
ballots has been the source of much
discussion throughout the state, an
argument on this subject between two
OF the leading citizens of Ycrington
has resulted i'll the publishing of the
following communication. which is iii
tho form OF all opinion. written by
Winton Willis and addressed to James
Jerusalem Kelly.
Ycrington, New. Aug. %. 1922.
TO Mr.. James ]. Kelly, Chief OF Police
City OF Ycrington Nevada.
Dear Sir:
In response to your request tor an
opinion regarding the effect of the
Mandamus Action and Decision Of the
Supreme Court that vote for Two
should be printed on certain Nom Par
tisan primary ballots, will say:
On an examination of An Act en-
titled, IAN Act regulating the nonina-
ton of candidates for public office in
the State of Nevada, approved March
23rd, 1917" | find-Section q provides
i'll part:
"In the case of Non-partisan office
TO which only one person can be elect
cd at the November election. the two
candidates receiving the highest num-
Der of votes shall be declared to be
Non partisan nominees.
In the case of Nom partisan Office
to which two or more persons may be
elected at the November election,
those candidates equal in number to
twice the number of positions to be
filled, who receive the highest number
of votes shall be declared to be Non
partisan nominees for such office.
Section p, under the Caption WHO
Nominated clearly indicates that the
number of candidates to be nominated
shall always be governed by the num-
Der of officers to be elected to any
office is the rule obviously in the
