In Little Rock Special Circuit Judge J Mitchell Cockrill dismissed Dr M Evans suit to bar State Senator Walter Y Wheatley from the 14th district ballot. Evans contends Wheatley, convicted in 1916 of a liquor law violation, is barred by the constitution from holding office. Judge Cockrill ruled the secretary of state not subject to the mandamus action and sustained the state’s demurrer, as no jurisdiction was found.
