(From a Staff Correspondent.)
IJNCOL.N. July t. (Special.) To tha
County attorney of Thayer county Attor
ney General Thotntexn ha a riven the fol
lowing In answer to the question: "Doe
the new primary election law 'apply to the
nomination of preolndt ofllcera In countlea
under commissioners organltaUonT"
Section 1 of the primary law provldea
that all eandldatee for elective office ahall
be nominated by a primary except aur.h,
aa are expressly exempted' by the pro
visions of the act. Subdivision I of aald
section 1. la as follows:
' This act ahall not apply to special elec
tions to fill vacancies, nor to municipal
elections In cities having less than 25,000
imputation. village, township and school dis
trict offlcera, nor to members of school
boards nor member a of boards of educa
tion." It will be seen from this that precinct
Ulcere are not exempted from the pro
visions of the act This no doubt waa an
oversight on the part of the one preparing
the bill. ' I can see no good reason why
townniilp offlcera should be excluded anil
precinct-officers not. Inasmuch as all elec
tive offlcera are to be nominated by the
primary except such as ere expressly ex
empted, the exemption cannot be held to
apply to precinct officers.
Section tl of said primary law would
aepm to bear out this construction. In
that aectlon It Is provided In what man
ner a tie vote on precinct officers may
be determined, thus Indicating that pre
cinct ofllcers came within the purview of
the law. hot these, roaaons 1 consider that
the primary election law applies to precinct
ofllcers. - ; -
Food CAmnlnloner Appoints.
Deputy Food Commissioner Johnson has
appointed E. L. Red tern state chemist t
a salary of $1,500 a, year and Miss Mc
Orady stenographer. These two have
been filling these positions during the last
two years'. Under the new pure food law
the deputy commissioner has the right
to appoint two drug and food Inspectors
and not to exceed four dairy Inspectors.
These will not be appointed for some time,
as Mr. 'Johnson desires ' to get familiar
with the work of the office before doing
anything else.
"This work Is entirely new to me," he
said, "and I want to go slow and I be
lieve that la the Idea of the governor.
The law under, which the- commission
works Is a -sew one enacted, by the recent
legislature, 'and' "What Is done now should
be permanent, and therefore It Is very
necessary that procedure be slow.

It la probable there, will be no Fourth

no , application for a- pardon and Chief
Justice Sedgwick haa not been heard from.
Governor Sheldon left town this afternoon
without signing any pardons and tha Indi

The law provides that If the three officers
named and the warden of the penitentiary
recommend the pal-don of two' prisoners
who have served as much as ten years,
the' governor may pardon them without
publlo notice having been made of the ap
plication for clemency. In the past It has
bee's the custom to pardon persons serving
life terms, though U la not unusual for

In answer to the Inquiry. "Is the estate
of an Insane person liable for expense In
committing such person ' to the asylum,"
Attorney-General Thompson haa given an
opinion that the estate Is not liable. He
adds, however, that where an estate Is solv

ACCOUNTING FROM CLARK DUE
Jaatic Amends Order Regarding the
. Sale of TJalted Verdo Copper
Ooaapaay.
NEW YORK, July t Justice Amend In
the supreme court has decided that William
A. Treadwell is entitled to sn accounting
In th sal of th United Verde Copper com
pany, which Is, controlled by former Sen
ator W. A. Clark of Montana. Tha sale
of this company, a New Tork organisation,
for the purpose of reorganization under
th lawa ot West Virginia, was declared
Illegal by the appellate division of the su
preme court and Mr. TreaAwell asked for
th appointment of a receiver, the granting
of an Injunction -and an accounting. Jus
tice Amend decided that tha appointment
of a receiver and th granting of an In
junction would needlessly tie up th de
fendant's operations, with no corresponding
advantage to Mr. Treadwell, who, the court
holds, would be compensated In money
damages.
Justice Amend decides that Mr. Treadwell
owned seventy-three shares of the stock
of the company, which owned a very val
uable mine In Jerome. Arlx., and waa con
trolled by the defendant. Senator Clark,
who, with his relative and friends, held
W per cent of the stock. Mr. Clark's de
