vote for him, would be put to burdensome and unnecessary inconvenience. Such a course should only be sustained upon the clearest warrant of law.

The Election Commissioners, to whom questions of this character are committed under the statutes, have fully considered this case, and, after a hearing of the parties, have determined that the names of the candidates in question should appear upon the ballot. As no substantial injury appears to result from the decision of the commissioners, either to the candidate seeking this proceeding or to the voter, and as the legality of the city election may be imperilled if legal proceedings are taken at this late day, I am clearly of the opinion that, in the exercise of the discretion entrusted to the Attorney-General, I should not sign the information.

HOSEA M. KNOWLTON, Attorney-General.

George W. Anderson, for the relator.

Thomas M. Babson, city solicitor, for the respondents.
