(Mr. Grimes) then states that Is the reason I hare not challenged any of your rotors, especially ttao Syrians who are votinf for you? I Informed him of the fact that every Syrian voting to? ma was a naturalised citlsen of the United States aad a visit to t)M Superior Court Clerk's office and the Deportment of 8tate at Washington, JD.

B Adams and others, stated that Mr. Ortmes told him that If W. B. Windley received only one vote mora than he, ha (W. D. Grimes) would*not ask for a second primary. Mr. Orinses claim* that the 8tate Democratic Executive Committee makei provisions for the calling of a second primary In the United States senato\ rial contest and uses that for an argumant in bis own behalf that II entitles him to a second primary. 1 answer that I do not deny Mr Grimes' leya] right In asking for a second primary, but I do with to saj that having entered Into an agree ment as I have sworn to, 1 foel X an being done a very great Injustice. Ix the first primary I paid my pro rati part as demanded by the law.
