TEST CASE IS SOON DECIDED Attorney-General Frames Up Suit in Thurston County. APPEAL TO BE HURRIED Provision of Primary Statute De signed to Prevent Democrats From Dictating Republican Nominations May Be Invalid. GL.TMPIA. Wash.. Oct. 15. (Special.) In a frame-up test case, the IocaJ Superior Oourt today wiped out the provision of the new primary election law which u designed to keep Democrats from taking part In the dictating the nominees of Re publican primaries. A section of the new primary law re quired that voters, when they register, must designate their party affiliation. For weeks past, registration has been in prog rff s in many cities, and this provision cf law hae been generally Ignored 'and forgotten. Few Only Might Vote. Fcr instance, out of more than loflO registered In Olympia. less than a score have declared their party. When atten tion was called to the provision, the State A t torney-General was bombarded with requests for a decision as to whether those only who hod declared their party affiliation could take part in the primar ies. Such a decision would have placed nominations In the hands of a limited few wise ones who had remembered the law. Assistant Attorney-General Tanner framed up a test suit today. He "in duced Marvin Arnold to visit the City Clerk's office and demand, that he be, registered as a Republican. The clerk, already primed by Tanner, refused to register him under any party designa tion. Arnold then, through Attorney Gordon Mack ay. filed In the Superior Court an application prepared by Tan ner, asking, a writ of mandate, com pelling the clerk to accept the regis tration. Case Hurried Into Court. To thla petition Tanner filed a demur rer as attorney for the City Clerk. The court took the matter up specially, and listened to arguments by Mackay for the petitioner and by Tanner. County Attorney Wilson and City Attorney Blgelow for the clerk, and then held the provision void. The decision was baaed upon the holding that the pro vision attempted, by inference, to repeal a prior law, and that repeal by Implica tion was obnoxious to the law, and fur ther that the provision was unconstitu tional, not having been covered by the title of the primary law. Mr. Tanner, who Is authority for the statements above as to the procedure, said tonight that an appeal to the Su preme Court will be taken at once, so the decision may be confirmed before election.
