Frank Jaco , Star Btatt Photographer It’s YOUR Job, Mr. Politician (EDITORIAL) HE POLITICAL tangle has been deepened, rather than cleared, by the decision of the supreme court Saturday in the La Follette case. The court held that it was not a question for judicial || decision as to how many “progressive tickets” could be placed upon the ballot—that it was a question of || politic It decided that only one of three parties using the name La Follette on their ticket was entitled to that right—and gave it to the progressive party, which has the indorsement of La Follette himself. The progressive party took the matter to court, in an effort to have determined which ONE of FOUR || parties, all terming themselves PROGRESSIVES, || should be the one behind which voters could gather || to register their protest against conservatism in the || old parties, | They would show, they said, that the other tickets || were fraudulent—that one, in fact, had filed, its cer- || tificate at Olympia two hours before it held its con- || vention. | The supreme court is right in saying that it is not within its powers to determine the number of parties that should go upon the ballot. It is not wit! the power of ANY court to close the opportunity of ANY body of citizens to vote for any || LEGITIMATE candidate. | The question of whether or not some tickets are || fraudulent is a question logically to be determined by the courts. But the question of straightening out the political tangle in the progressive ranks is a problem for the political managers themselves. CERIN.
