VERDICT HANDED DOWN
IN 'SOLE NOMINEE' CASE
Dauphin County Court Dismisses
Injunction Suits Brought by
Philadelphia Judges
In a decision handed dowti todav the
Hauphln County Common Pleas Court dls
missed the Injunction suits brought by
Judgci of ithe Orphins' Court nnd the pros
cut Judges of Common i'in -,,,., r.
to keep the nnmes of other candidates for
the bench off the ballot at the November
election.
Papers In the suit were filed hy Judget
Staakc nnd Monaghan, of Court of Com
mon Pleas No- G, who are candidates for re
election, nnd Judges Lamorelle and Ander
son, of the Orphans' t'outf, who nre nlso
candidates for re-election.
In accordance with the icislon handed
down today. Kugene C Bonnlwelt and Fred
erlck S. Drake, who were candidates at the
primaries for the Judgeship in Common
Pleas No. 5, will have their names on the
bnl'ot, while Hubert F. Bonner nnd George
ririch will bo allowed to have their names
on the ballot for Judge of the Orphans'
Court.
Tho oplnltn of the Court In these cases
conforms with Its previous Interpretation of
tho "solo nominee" clause of tho Judicial
act, which tho petitioners sought to havo
revised.
In their request for nn Injunction to re
strain the Secretary of the Commonwealth
from printing on the ballots the names of
other candidates, the plaintiffs contended
thnt for the words "votes" In the phrase
the "total number of tes cast" the words
"ballots" or "electors" should be substi
tuted nnd If that were done they would
appear as the sole nominees with more than
50 per cent of votes cast to their credit
This the Court declined to sanction, say
ing that "one bnllot may represent many
votes" through ticket cutting, nnd thnt the
Legislature Itself In formulating the law
distinguished between the two words. Tho
Court holds the opinion nlso that In cane
the construction were placed on the act
which the petitioners ask there would be
more "solo nominees" on tho bnllot than
there wero vacancies to (111.
After quoting opinions In previous cases
of similar character, tho Court says that "It
has not been shown that any pne of the
plaintiffs received a majority of the total
number of 'Notes cast for cither of the va
cancies for office. The two vacancies to be
filled In each case represented two olllces,
nnd It Is Impossible to ascertain that fact,
the vacancies for which they were candi
dates not being distinguished In nny way
the one from the other.
"It Is conceded that no one of them re
ceived n majority of tho total number of
otes cast for all of the candidates for the
two vacancies' In the olllcc. We must, there
fore, conclude that they hao not established
their right to becomo the solo nominees for
the olllco to the exclusion of the names of
other candidates for the olllco from the
ofllclal bnllot."-
The Court then quotes Its opinion In prc
Ious cases to the effect that tho burden of
proving right to be "solo nominee" rests
upon the plaintiff nnd that "In case of doubt
as between a special privilege nnd the free
dom of elections, tho doubt ought to be re
solved In favor of the latter "
Tho motions to contlnuo the preliminary
Injunctions nro oerruled nnd tho injunc
tions dissolved.

Isaiah Hartman Expects to Sec
Boys Come Home From
France as Victors
Isaiah Hartman, the "grnnd old man of

from France the winners," said Mr. Ilnrt
man. "I don't think- It 1? nsklng too much
and I bellevo I will scTo It When I've
done that I vlll be ready to die."
Mr, Hartman watched tho Columbia
Ciuards, of Danville, march away to Mexico
In 1846, and welcomed them home In their
triumph In 1848. He saw the "boys In
bluo" march nway to fight the "boys In

"boys in khaki" entrain for tho Spanish
