DECISION MAY
HIT BOILERS
Can Be Ruled Off ir
November, Sea.
bury Claims

The opinion that the recent de-
cisIon of the fourth court Of civil
appeals will result in refusal to Ger
tify the names of Thomas B. Love,
Mrs. Edith Wilmans or William
Hawkins for places on the democratic
ticket at the November election in
the event that any or each Of them
may receive a majority in the demo-
cratic primaries, was expressed Mon
day by Judge f. W. Seabury of
Brownsville.
Judge Seabury was one Of the at
torneys representing the Cameron
county democratic committee in con-
nection with the recent action inaug-
urated by Thomas 3. Love Of Dallas.
candidate for lieutenant governor. to
compel the Cameron county commit
tee 10 place his name on the official
primary ballot. The county commit
tee refused Mr.. Love a place on the
ballot after he had asserted he would
oppose the election for Governor
Smith.
Texas voters who vote in the
democratic primary for any of the
three candidates will merely lose
their votes, is the opinion Of Judge
Seabury. He points out that in an
opinion by the supreme court in the
case of Devices VS.. Stevens, Justice
Dibrell held that any candidate who
"by Misrepresentation or silence
caused his name to be placed upon
the ballot of any party" with which
he is not affiliated establishes a
basis for contest.
The opinion states: "It was one
Of the evident purposes of the pri-
mary election laws to preserve "a
each political party its political in
tegrity. and where a member of one
party has by Misrepresentation or
silence caused his name to be placed
on the primary ballot of another
party, and has defeated member Of
such party, the wrong may be righted
by an action to contest the nomina-
tion, for which remedy ample pro-
vision has been made by the election
laws of this state"
Judge Seabury holds the view that
this applies equally TO all candidates
who are not supporting the demo-
cratic ticket in full and who by "mis-
representation or silence" have per-
mitted their names TO remain on the
democratic primary ticket. He holds
that all such candidates, in the event
Of their nomination, are subject to
contest.
