JUDGE KIKEL'S QUALIFICATIONS FOR SUPREME COURT PEACE Philadelphia Public Ledger Points Out That He Has Many Advantages The Philadelphia Public Ledger, of to-day, pays a high tribute to Judge. Kunkel's'fitness for the supreme bench. In an article on the Supreme Court judgeship, the Ledger says: "The candidate of widest acquaint ance is George Kunkel, President Judge of Dauphin County. As the Judge before whom the Capitol graft cases were heard he attained a repu tation in every county of the State, and his friends are pointing to the fact that, although he was elected the first time as an organization Re publican, he presided over these cases with such impartiality that the press of the Commonwealth, regardless of party, complimented him in the high est manner. The Supreme Court sus tained him in every particular, al though nearly a score of the ablest lawyers in Pennsylvania were light ing to keep the grafters out of jail, and in the course of their battle took exception to more than a hundred rul ings made by Judge Kunkel. He was unanimously re-elected to his pres ent position, being on all the tickets voted a year ago in Dauphin County. "This candidate has another ad vantage. Harrisburg is the State cap ital and many cases of State-wide in terest are tried in the Dauphin County tribunal. This has given the lawyers an opportunity to know him at close range. Hs supporters also contend that he has made many friends among Representatives and State Sen ators in the last ten years, and that they will be an influence for him in their respective communities."
