Auditor T. E. Flanerty, act- ing under an opinion of the attorney general. withheld from the ballot all democratic candidates for office ex- cept the three legislative nominees, the four candidates for justice of the veace and the candidate for sheriff on the grounds that the other nomi- nees at the primaries did not poll 25 per cent of the vote cast for govern jor, secretary of state and aitorney general by their party in the last gen- eral election. ‘Attorney Allen argued that the act 1913 under which the attorney gen- ruling was made was not con- stitutional, He cited an opinion of the supreme court in 1910 holding that che old provision requiring for nomin- ation 30 per cent of the vote cast & he secrevary of state was unconstttu- | ional, and he recalled the fact that Governor Burke had vetoed on the same grounds an act of 1911 making ihe vote for governor, attorney gen- eral and secretary of slate the nom- inating basis.
