Nebraska ONE PRRTY ENOUGH, AVERS SECRETARY Pool Declares Candidates of Parties that Do Not Affiliate Must Go it Alone. ONE DISTRICT STILL IS MINUS (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March 24.—(Special)—No candidate for office on one ticket has any right to appear as a candidate for office on another ticket, according to Sec- retary of State Pool, and whenever a protest is entered against such double representation, the secretary of state will hold that the word affiliation simply means that & man cannot affiliate with more than one party. The matter came up on the protest of F. P. Corrick, state chalrman of the progressive party against the names of republican and democrats going on the progressive ticket. Some withdrawals had been made, and the matter finally dwindled down to consideration of the names of Congressmen Sloan and Kin- kald, who as republicans had been filed for places for congressional nomination on the progressive ticket by. bullmoose petitions and acceptance of the same had been received. Poot Raises Bar. Both had been the candidates of the bulmoose party in two previous cam- paigns and no objection had been made. However, Mr. Pool holds that as the national organization of the republican and progressive parties do not affiliate, candidates for office are barred from affillating. Hower, while republicans are barred from the bullmoose ticket, moosers can run on the republican ticket, and such will be the case in the instance of A. H. Bigelow of Omaha, candidate for con- gress in the Second district, who late yesterday accepted a filing for his name to go om the republican ticket for con- gress, and as no one took enough inter- est in the 'matter to protest, the prim- ary“ballot will show the name of Mr. Bigelow on the republican ballot con- testing with Judge Ben Baker and David Mercer for the nomination. In the case of C. H. Sloan and M. P. Kinkaid, there were no candidates for congress in their districts on the pro- gressive ticket. i The same old farce of peoples inde- pendent filings on the democratio ticket will still continue, although that party has_no organization and mighty few followers. District Lacks Candidate. The Seventy-sixth representative dis- trict will have no candidate for nomina- tion for that office on either of thy six primary ballots, no oné having gent in their filing to the secretary of state, The district comprises the countles of Banner, Kimball, Cheyenne, Deuel and Garden, represented in the last session by Willlam L. Bates of Lodge Pole, Newspaper notices indicated that Mr. Bates had filed for the republican nomi- nation with the county treasurer of his own county, but no receipt for the filing fee or filing has ever reached the secre- tary of state and so no name will ap- pear on the ticket. If Mr. Bates had really made Ris filing in ‘hfs home county and’ bald the filing fee and the official had neglected to for- ward the same to the secretary of state, it is, possible that mandamus proceedings might compel his name to be placed on the ballot. However, that would be up to Mr. Bates to take action if he so de- sider.
