10 THE OMATIA DAILY TVSEi FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER, 8, 1005. TEST OF THE PRIMARY LAW Socialists, in Their Brief, Demand Van dimni for Drexel. DECLARE HE VIOLATED OLD STATUTES Dodge Act la "tamped Contrary to Article la Stale Comllli. loa Gevernlna; Holding f ElFPtloaa. Printed copies of the brief filed In the supreme court of Nebraska by Attorneys George A. Magney and E. R. Leigh, at torney! for the socialist party of Douglas county, are now out. The title of the cane Is: Clark W. A tin I r, relator, against John C. Prexel, county clerk of Douglas county. Tile brief starts out by saying. Thla Is an application' for a mandamus to compel tho county clerk of Douglas county to receive and file tho certificate of nominations for county officers mnile by the roi.'lallst party The clerk refused to file the certificate because the nominations were not made up In accordance with the primary law enacted by the last legislature. To back, up this assertion, It Is Bet out in large capital letters that, "The act In question Is violative of section 22, article i, of the constitution of the state." The section In question reads: Ail elections shall be free; and there shall be po hindrance or Impediment to the right of a qualified voter to exercise the elective franchise. Arguing along the line nf these premises, the brief, covers all sections questioned In the Podge primary law, up to quoting a decision of the California supreme court In s similar case, the concluding part and the gist of . which Is: The legislature has no power to deprive any citizen of the state, who fills all tho requirements of the constitution from voting at an election provided for by this act. On the line of this decision and their original contention. Attorneys Mngney and Leigh says Flllngr Fee Violative. The requirement of the payment of a filing fee of 1 per cent of the emoluments of the office as a requisite for the candi dal having his r.ame placed upon the pri mary election ballot Is clearly violative of section 22 of tho constitution and renders the act void. They further say: The legislature has no more authority to say that the voter shall be assessed 1 per cent of the salary of the office for the priv ilege of having his name placed upon the official primary ballot than It hHS to say that the elector when nominated for of fice shall be taxed 1 per cent of the salary of the office before his name shall be placed upon the official election ballot. Numerous authorities are set out as sup porting the propositions of the brief thut no test shall be Imposed upon the voter as basis for participation In an election, ex cept possibly as to party affiliation "for a reasonable time, as until the next general election." The clause excepting from registration certain parties, as "those who are sick, un avoidably absent, or other matter beyond his control," Is also questioned, and like wise that "no provision Is made for the voter proving his right to vote other than by registration." An attack Is also made on the title as covering more than, one subject. And tho change In method of registration Is also excepted to: BOOST FOR RJi CUNNINGHAM Henanns Given by Rami Free De livery Jlewi for Ite-Klectlou of Soatli Omaha Man.

H. Cun ningham of South Omaha, president of the association, should be re-elected. It says: Mr. Cunningham lu a candidate for presi dent to succeed himself, ills election one year ago waa under conillttona which made his term of office extend over two years, had he not voluntarily waived his right to the second year and preferred to accept the office again only at the hands of a majority choice at the coming convention. That his action In promptly releasing the association from Its obligation to retain him as president two years w.it a manly, hon orable thing to do i ii ' 'H.wledged even by those who are tryli. . . 1 elect another In his place. Has there been any good results secured for the rural carrier body during the ad ministration of Mr. Cunningham as presi dent? And If so, what ate they? In the condition of the carrier today any belter than it was before'.' Now, let us be abso lutely fair und welg,h the facts as they actually exist. When through the work of the News the national association was organized in Chi cago In October 11K3. FranK H. Cunning ham was elected prenldent. The editor of this paper, directly or Indirectly, did not lend a feather's weight of Influence toward his election or that of any other of the officers nominated. No one can question that, ... ' There . were than sixteen state associa tions, of which all but three or four were only a few months old. . Now there are thirty-three well organized, active Htate associations, or one more than twice as many as then. At that meeting fifty-one carriers were present (Including a large percentage from neurby Illinois towns) a year later, at the second convention In St. Louis, there were 'Ity delegates and officers besides ISO visiting carriers not delegates. At Chicago fourteen states were repre sented. At SI. I-ouls thirty states sent delegates. .Tiien the maximum salary was fiiixi a ear. During his administration It has been In neased to trill maximum, and on July 1 1M, nearly WMMO curriers enjoved slime advance In pay, according to the length of their 'respective routes. When a month later the official at Wash ington at the head of the rural free de livery service, and who was bitterly and openly antagonistic to It, did his utmost to deprive thousands from the Increase 'congress had voted,' It was-largely due to the personal efforts of Mr. Cunningham' that Ihe question was carried to the presi dent, who did a very unusual thing and overruled the official with an order he dare not disobey, thus saving the carriers. Two years ago the carriers were granted on a . special disposition one or two holi days. Now they have six holidays, with pay, as a permanent thing, and more than a few hours' notice of the event. Two fears ago there was no prospect or securing a coue or ruies. Now a code Is In preparation by the gen eral superintendent, who Is spending three months on rural routes studying conditions. The rode is assured and will Issue shortly Two years ago the carrier was unknown beyond his route and the carrier .body was not recognized at the department and In congress. During the last sixty days the postmaster general has publicly expressed his approval of carrier associations when conducted along- the tinea set forth in their constitu tions, and has further shown his personal Interest In their work by the presence of the general superintendent of the service at one state convention and his promise to attend two others, and also the attend ance at ether state conventions of the su- rerlntendent of tbe district In which the ts tea belong. Two years ago the publlo at large knew little and cared lesa about the rural Carrier. Now there exists a (Teat national en dorsement of the service and a personal sympathy for the rural carrier. rha.snherUlB's C.lle, Choler Dlarrh.eat Remedy. - There is probably no medicine made that Is relied upon with more Implicit confidence than Chamberlain' Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy.
