the election laws ordered submitted
to the voters on, March 1s by Cover
nor Nestos was filed today in the
fourth judicial district court under
the title of state ex rel. R. w. Frazier
against Thomas Hall as Secretary Of
State.
Application is made to District
Judge Fred Jansonius for an order
, to the defendant to show cause why
he should not be enjoined. The suit
includes the so-called "non-party'
election laws and the bank validating
law of the 1923 legislature.
| The petitioner alleges:
| That Governor Nestos was without
power to call special election on
March Is for the submission Of the
laws to vote of the people becau sc
the petitioners who caused the laws
to be referred asked that the election
be held in November, 1924.
| That if the ballots are certified
the election will be unlawful and
will result "in great irreparable dam
ages and injury to the petitioners
and the electors generally through
out the state"

toner is exactly that taken by See
retary of State Thomas Hall In

submit the. laws" said F. O. He'll
strom, who with Joseph Coghlan is
attorney for the petitioner. "We be-
lieve that Mr.. Halls petition is cor

to take away from the petitioners
and the electors of the state the
right guaranteed them by the con-
stitution to have the said measures
referred to statewide election des-
ignated in the petition by the petit
TONERS, and therefore infringes up
on the rights of the petitioners and
the electors generally and is usur.
patton of power, not warranted by the
constitution of the state or any laws
or statutes enacted thereundes."
The papers filed include the Attor.
ney-Generals declination to bring
