APPLICATION FOR MANDAMUS WRIT DENIED BY COURT High Tribunal Refuses Local Democratic Committee Per- mit to Name Candidates The state supreme court today den- ied an application for a writ of man- damus sought by a group purporting to be the Burleigh County Degocratic central committee to compel sec retary of state to place the names of ithree men chosen by the group as ‘nominees for the legislature in the ,27th district. The court held that where there was no candidate of a political party for member of the legislature at the pre- ceding general election, a candidate for nomination at a primary election must receive at least 200 votes in order to be nominated. It was further ruled \that the power of a party committee to fill vacancies on an election ballot canbe: exercised..only. where 3 sca otctrs after a regular na~ tion. It cannot make an nomination. The application for a writ of man- damus was made by O. ©. Udie, W. E. Doty and Julius Meyers, who asked that Secretary of State Robert Byrne be compelled to certify their names to the county auditor as candidates for he North Dakota house of rep- resentatives in the Democratic column in the 27th district. No Candidates in 1928 The Democratic party had no can- didates for representatives from the 27th district at the general eleciion in 1928; no persons filed nomination petitions asking that their names be placed on the Democratic ballot at the primary election last June, and no names were printed on the ballot. Names of several persons were writ- ten in on the ballot for Democratic ‘candidate for representative in the district. A group of Democrats, claiming to constitute the county central com- mittee of Burleigh county, met last month and passed a resolution recit- ing that vacancies existed on the Democratic ticket for nomination of candidates for the legislature and named the three candidates. Byrne refused to certify the names to the county auditor on the grounds that no vacancy existed and that the com- mittee had no authority to inake an original nomination. No Ruling on Second Question Charles Simon, assistant attorney general, who represented Byrne in the case, claimed that the coinmittee naming the candidates was not the legal committee. The supreme coutt held that “for the purposes of this case we shall assume that the persons who so acted had power to act ws such committee.” The committee which supported the mandamus action claimed that the failure by the electors to nominate any candidates created vacancies which the county central comn:ittee had authority to fill. “This is. of course, contrary to the express provisions of the statute, which contemplates that the people shall have the power not only to nominate candidates but shail have the power. if they so desire, to re- from nominating. It is also contrary to the eee holding of this court,” the decision said. F O. Hellstrom, Bismarck, in argu- ments to the court, charged t:.at a conspiracy existed and that votes cast for scattered Democratic candi- dates at the primary were not count- | ed. He claimed that, for that rea- son, @ vacancy had been declared by the county central committee. ed in Event of Another War, Says Pers! RP New York, Oct. 24.—(#)—A warning ; more war.
