RIBBON BALLOT
REFERENDUM VOTE
REPUBLICAN STATE COMMITTEE
WON IN SUPREME COURT
ELECTION LAW SUSPENDED.
, .1. A. Harris of Wagoner, acting
chairman of the republican stato
! committee, has sent telegrams to
' every county to the membera of tao
j ftute executive committee advising
them that the supreme court sin
I tallied Nerrls and iloufo on every
point in the Taylor election law case
It will be remembered that when tho
j last legislature enacted tho Taylor
election law a great howl went up
. ti oni the republican party. The lac.'
j provided for tho ribbon ballot
j which was very objectionable to
j that party and petitions were at
I once gotten up to have tho law
' submitted to an election of tlu
j people. Tho secretary of tho st.uo
claimed that the filing or the pett -
Hons wore irregular and that lie
was not required to submit tho law
to a referendum vote. Tho supremo
court In Its decision which was
written by Judge Hays has decided
that the petitions were properly
filed.
The fact that the decision was
rendered as It was, will serve to
suspend tho Taylor election law. It
is believed that where bond Issues
have been voted, and It Is doubtful
whother tho vote should havo been
taken under tho old law or tho
Taylor law that tho doubt will bo
remcved and the bonds validated as
tho court decision indicates that
the law has been suspended In fact
since the day of the filing of tho
petitions.
