Not Disqualify Ciingrre
sional Candidate.
Kearney, Kcb., July 7, (Special)
A statement relative to the qualifi
cation of Judge R. O. Hotetler a a
candidate (or ronRrri h been i
aued by M, A. Urown, editor, and
N. P. McDonald, attorney of Kear
ney, antweriiiR charge that Hornet
ler i diiqualified by the Nebraska
corHtitution from seeking another
office during hit term as judge.
In part the statement says:
"The constitution of the United
States fixes the qualifications of a
member of congress. All the au
thorities hold that it is not compe
tent for any state to add to or in
any manner chamse the qualifications
for a federal office as prescribed by
the constitution or laws of the I'nited
Stales. Furthermore, the federal
constitution declares that "each
house shall be the judtfc of the elec
tions, returns and qualifications of
its own members." N'o state court
has the power to decide these ques
tions, "Kvery court of last resort, which
has ever passed upon the question,
" fcas held to the same effect, among
them the supreme courts of New
York. New Hampshire, Minnesota
and Washington. The supreme court
of Washington had before it a statute
exactly like that of Nebraska and an
attempt was made to keep the name
of a judge of the supreme court off
the primary ballot for congress. The
court held him eligible.
"The suggestion that Judge Hos
tctler is not qualified to be a candi
date for this oflirc arises out of the
ambition of the friends of his oppo
nents to defeat him for the nomina
tion. No one ought to be misled
by this false alarm. The fact that
the opponents of Judge Hostctlcj
are obliged to resort to such tactics
to support their own candidate oiiRht
to stimulate his friends to still
. greater activity in his behalf."
