Opinion

Per Curiam,

The proceeding instituted in the court below was to contest the nomination of Harry C. Ransley as the Republican candidate for. Congress at a primary election held in the Third Congressional District of Pennsylvania on May 18, 1920. No statute authorizes such a contest in the court below, and it was, therefore, without jurisdiction to entertain appellants’ petition.

The order quashing it for want of jurisdiction is affirmed at their costs.
