Percy Knew Was Illegal Senator Denies Claim on Primary
Washington coverage reports Senator Lafley Percy disputing a claim by Guy Noel that the proposed senatorial primary was illegal. Percy says the August primary would bind Democrats who participated, and that the November nominee need not campaign for the 1911 contest. He would resign only when legislature convenes in 1912 if defeated. Also notes charter approvals for Biloxi Real Estate Co and The People’s Bank at Kalwbyn, plus date set for Dulaney trial on June 20 for bribery allegations involving Senator Bilbo’s caucus successor.
