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:

An editorial In the Rural Free Delivery
News, the official organ of tho National
Rural Letter Carriers' association, gvvs
many and strong reasons why F. 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.

Is relied upon with more Implicit confidence
than Chamberlain' Colic, Cholera and Diar

have learned that it la the one remedy that
never falls. When reduced with water and
Sweetened it la pleasant to take.
