Continued from first page)

NSOLAthAuSu AEu4l uISG pd8eJ
He is represented by Henry M.
Candy, John S. walker, and Will
liam Satterthwaite, counsel OppOs-
ing the Wahl petition.
Sinclair's petition expressed be-
lief that "the preservation of the
constitutional right, power, and au-
thOrity of the House of Represen-
tatiyes to judge the elections, re-
turns, and qualifications of it's own
members requires that certain mat
ters be called to the attention of
the court"
Sees Infringement of House
Powers
He suggested that Wahl cannot
maintain and should not be per-
mitted to maintain his action on
grounds, among others, that the
granting of any of the prayers of
the petition would constitute an
infringement on the powers, prerO-
gatives, and jurisdictions of the
House. His petition asks dismissal
of the mandamus petition.
Another motion granted was that
of E. Ennalls Berl, William E. Tay-
lOr, and James L. Latchum, cOun-
sci for Wahl, that Michael A. Pop
pitt be added as a Wahl attorney.
Among points included in the
answer of the board of canvass
are:
The mandamus petition fails to
state a claim against the defend
ants upon which relief can be
granted.
A clarifcatiOn that Wahl origin
ally filed afidavits of fraud or mis-
take in the certificates of the cleo
tiOn officers of all AZ election dis
tricts of the second representative
district, then withdrew all except
six concerning the third to eighth
election districts of the Sixth
Ward: and that the canvass board
ruled that Wahl failed to prove
that afidavits were sufficient or
made in good faith, with the ex-
ceptiOn of the one in the third
election district, which set forth
that the inspector and judges re-
jected 40 valid official ballots and
that by mistake they counted 40 de-
faced ballots.
Disputes allegation that the ra-
table deduction of the 81 ballots
involved was made from the aggre-
gate vote received from the whole
Second Representative District by
the two candidates pYD1ainiOO that
the deduction was made from the
total vote received by each candi-
date in the Third Election District,
Sixth Ward-80 from Armstrong
and II from Wahl.
Denies that the action of the
canvass board was contrary to law.
The answer asks that the rule
issued in the proceedings be Quash-
ed and the case dismissed.
