The Vacant Judgeship.
The death of Judge McMichael precipi
tates for this year what nobody was ex
pecting would happen until two years
hence, ». c. a contest for Judicial honors
and powers, and it materially changes the
aspect of the contest, in that the counties
of Butler and Lawrence will now be called
npon to select ono Judge, whereas, had
Judge McMichael lived out his term, th«
contest for two would have occurred at the
same time.
Butler and Lawrence counties were, by
the Act of Assembly, signed by G <v Pat
tison, Aug. 7, 1883, continued as the 17th
• Judicial District of this Commonwealth,
with "two Judges learned iu the law. and
the additional law Judge shall reside at
New Castle in Lawrence county;" and ac
cording to Se(J. 17 of Art. V, of the Con
stitution when two judges aro elected in
the same district at the s<«me time they
cast lotS for priority of commission.
Bntler and Lawrence counties constitu
ted a Judicial District previous to the pas
sage of the act to which we refer. In 1874
E. McJunkin and James Bredin were
elected, they cast lots for the priority or
Presidency and Mr. McJunkin secured it,
and both Judges resided in Butler.
In 1884 John McMichael and A. L.
Hazen, both of New Castle, were elected,
they cast lots, Mr. Hazen secured the
Presidency and as the new law required
Mr. McMichael to re»ide in New Castle, Mr.
Hazen moved to Butler.
Now death intervenes and changes the
order of things for all time so long as the
present laws remain in force Sec. 25 of
Art. V, of the Constitution requires the
Governor to fill this vacant office by ap
pointment, the appointee to continue in
office till the first Monday in January
next; and be or his Secretary will also
have to notify the Sheriffs of the two coun
ties to include this office in their next gen
eral election proclamation; and Seo. 15,
of the same article prescribes that all
Judges shall be elected and shall hold
their offices for ten years,whoever is elect
ed this fall will hold the office for ton years,
if he shall so long behave himself well.
This brings up the questions of the par
ty primaries and the equities of the two
counties in the matter as well as tho_ qual
ifications of the different well known as
pirants for Judicial honors living here. ,12
Whoever is elected will be commission
ed "Associate Law Judge" of this district
and if the law of 1883 holds good, uroat
reside in New Castle until the fir«t Monday
of January 1805, at which time, as we take
it, he would become President Judge of the
district by reason of "priority of commis
sion," and could reside wherever he pleas
ed in the district, and the man elected in
1894 would be Associate Law Judge and be
required to rosido in New Castle.
Whether or not the Republicans of the
two counties will hold a joint primary or
separata primaries followed by a contereuce
has not yet been decided. It inay be that
one county will give away to tho other for
the present. The situatiou is decidedly in
teresting.
Quay and Dalzcil.
There is s temporary lull in the Quay •
Drtliull campaign, Mr. Quay's early voting
counties having all discharged their
function and the time at which tho ma
jority of the counties of the ntate are ac
customed to hold primaries being still a
long way off.
In the interim there will be no lack of
educative influences working to-« exhibit
and emphasize the actual merits of the
contest and to disabuse the public mind of
the idea that there is no help for it but t<>
let Mr. Quay have a perpetual mortgage
on the Republican party in this state and
exercise an absolute dictatorship over its
policy and patronage.
The reasons which are assigned for
claiming that Mr. Quay ought to have a
second term in tho senate are substantially
these: (1) That by his magnificent politi
cal generalship be secured the election of
Harmion in 1888. (2) That he served a
short time in the Civil War. (3) That, by
some neat maneuvering, he prevented the
McKinley bill from fuauderiug in the senate.
Nowhere l* it specified that Mr Qua}
possesses the qualification- essential in a
legislator. It is simply premised thnt as a
successful politician, with some suggestion
of a military record, he is entitled to a re
ward, and thence is derived the conolnsiou
that, since the reward he ask* for is another
term in the senate, he ought to get it.
More than thirty years have elapsed since
the Republican party in Pennsylvania be
gau rewarding Mr. Quay, and during that
period more substantial rewards have
fallen to his thare than were ever enjoyed
by any other citizen of the state. But,
supposing that the total of rewards is in
sufficient, aud that, as the »ucc<sssful man
ager cf the Harrison camp-iigu, the Beaver
senator is entitled to more, it is still pro
per to inquire why the method of recogni
tion should be the seating of Mr. Quay in
a deliberative body, his uulituess for mem
bernhip iu which is nationally conspicuous
Through Quay and Cameron, neither one
of them capable ol giving the state worthy
representation, Pennsylvania lias been
divested of all power and prestige iu the
uppor branch of congress. Ilenco arises
the movement to elect to the senate iu
place of Mr. Quay, Congressman John
Dalzell, who is to-day, without
the most brilliant representative of our
Btate in congress. Mr. Dalzell is eminont
as a statesman; Mr. Quay as a politician.
Mr. Dalzell's place, is, therefore, where as
a statesman', he can have the greatest op
portunities to serve the people and to
dignify this commonwealth. Mr. Quay
should be kept in the field of political
activity in which he has always been con
spicuous, if his services are indispensable
to the party.
' These are considerations well worth the
attention of Republican voters everywhere.
Expediency, propriety and public necessity
alike dictate the election to tho senate of a
Uiaii who.e incapacity will not be a re
pioach to a constituency ot more than live
millions of people.—Pittsburg Leader.

The Postoffice Squabble,
To the victors belong the spoils, but the
victors cannot always agTee among them
selves in the division thereof.
At present the victorious Qaayites of
this town are engaged in a bitter wrangle
regarding the Butler postoffice.
Some mouth* ago Ex-Sheriff Kelly can
vassed the town with a petition for the ap
pointment and, as no other person at that
time was seeking it, he easily secured a
large list of names of all parties.
Mr. Kelly was a soldier, not a Quay
noldier with a medal, but a real soldier
without a medal; and to reward him for
his services in the field, the Republican
party of this county took him up and made
him Sheriff of the couaty. Butler county
at that time was the richest oil field in the
world; the Mechanics Lien law of 1874 or,
76 was in force,and Kelly had a very profita
ble term. We have heard the net profit*
of his term estimated as high as $50,000
and 560,000.
The primary election came and went;
this spring fever of Quayism prevailed in
thi3 county, soldiers that started ont in
the canvass for Dalzell suddenly became
converts to Quay and deaf to all argument;
Quay's agent here and his lieutenants
gained a victory that entitles them al!
to medals; Qnay gets a grand
"send-of," everybody is happy
and what follows—Quay's agent determines
to take the postoffice for himself again,
Mr. Robinson held the postoffice here
for something «ver eight years in the name
of one his danghters; the office is worth,
perhaps, $2,000 a year; and now he is re
ported to have resolved, in view of his
great and signal victory for Mr. Quay, to
use his iiiflcence with that gentleman for
again securing it for himself.
Kelly heard of this and it made him
mad. He told his friends of this and they
are mad—mad all over—and they are re
ported as threatening to defeat the county
ticket this fall if Kobinson persists, and
saying that the result on United State-
Senator in this county would have been
different had they known Robinson would
have acted so badly, that Robinson prom
ised to keep hands off; that they voted for
Quay with the distinct understanding that
Kelly was to have the oostoffice, etc.
How the matter will be decided remains
to be seen—it has been suggested that the
office be divided into two parts; one for
Robinson, permanently, and the other foi
whoever he allows to have it—but the
point for the Republicans of this county
to remember is this —The party owe
neither of the present con te -tants anything
whatever, and no matter whether either,
neither or both secure this office, any
threats of defeating a fairly and honestly
nominated county ticket come with pool
grace from either side.
Death of Judge McMichael.
The receipt of the news here last Sunda}
morning of the death ol Judge McMichael
was a great shock to our people. There
was a universal expression of sorrow aun
-urprise. He had come to be so highly re
spected by our people that all heard of his
death with regret. This respect arose
from his character both as a man and as a
Judge. As a Judge he was admired for
his legal learning, his fairness and his
firmness. In the trial of causes he looked
alone to the law and matters in evidence
betore him. No partiality swayed him.
His mind seemed intent only on tendering
law and justice between the parlies. He
therefore bad the confidence of the mem
bers of the Bar as w ell as suitors.
But it was as a man that people had il
anything still more rei-pect for and cor.fi
dence in Judge McMichael. Whilesociable
and pleasant to those intimate with him,
yet ho neither .sought society or display.
He was modest and retiring. On no oc
casion was be ever seen to put himsell
forward, or to claim or assume any
privileges by virtue of the office he held.
In the private walks of life,as well as upon
the Bench, he was the plain, honest citizen.
No stain ever resto> upon him either as a
man or Judge.
Judge McMichael was in the 58th year
of his age. He had been ill with the pr< -
vailing influenza, but bis death was unex
peeted and rather euddeu. It happenc.
at bis home in New Castle early on la-t
Sunday morning. Thus a good man di -
appears from among us.

End of the School Year at Sandv Hill.
FLICK. PA . April! 12. 1802 —One of the
most successful terms of school ever tanght
at Sandv liill was closed on Tuesday.
April 12th.
About tea o'clock on tbe morning of tbe
eventful date, tbe patrons and friends of
the school began to assemble with heavy
laden ba-sket- of all sorts of good things,
preparatory to a picnic dinner. They were
entertained nntil noon by a number of cla.-a
drills, which were especially appreciated,
as they gave an idea of the work done
during the term. It was to be regretted,
h >wever, that most of the pupils had taken
home their readers, thereby depriving the
an lience of a rare treat. They then ail
journed and soon were enjoying the
gorgeous display of eatables spread before
tbem, aud some time was spent in eating,
talking, laughing, and a general social
intercourse and reunion took place. Alter
dinner they were treated to a very spicy
and well rendered entertainment. Miss
Margnerete Trimble tendered in her usual
pleasing manner a number of excellent
solos, arnon which were "Only a Picture."
and "The Song that reached my Heart."
"Curfew Must Not King To-night'' aud
"Asleep at the switch," were very credibly
recited by Miss Ida Hayes. Mr. II B.
Barnes, the teacher, spoke in a very touch
ing manner, a short but pathetic selection
entitled "Tne Best Picture of All." Fol
lowing that came Mi-s Eva Fair, who very
skillfully re. ited "The Polish Boy."

with a Plantation song.
As the program grew to a close Mr
Burns called upon the patrons and friends
for a few remarks. A number of the par
ents responded complimenting the pupils
and teacher for t'ue pleasure thus granted
then: and thanked the teacher for the
earnest efforts in behalf of their children.
Squire Leslie reminded them that they
bad much to be proud of in the knowledge
that they had one of the bent schools in
the county, that their only adornment now
neccessary is the "St ir Spauglod Banner

Mr Burns has the satisfaction of know

citizens, who will long remember and
appreciate his work. One of the pu
pils, in behalf of the school, expressed her
regret at his departure aud hopes of hi*
