A Riddle.
••A riddle, a rldOle. as I suppose."
* A hundred Bills wherever he noes.
Once upon a time, a man lived in
Butler, who would not pay his debts,
though he had plenty of money. He
was a riddle to the people, who won
dered at his meanness, and he was a
great friend of a certain Judge who
bragged that there were only three Bills
in the town against him.
But a man who knew better spoke up
and said he knew of a sixty dollar gro
cery Bill against him, and another said
he knew of a forty dollar livery Bill
against,him—both ten years old.
And people wondered what the Judge
had been doing with the SI,OOO he had
been receiving from the state every
three months for ten years.
FRIENDS of Greer located in various
parts of the county, have lately asserted
that if Galbreath is nominated, the next
. judge of- Butler county will be a Dem
ocrat. The only possible inference is
that the Greer supporters are going to
flop and help the Democrats if their
man is defeated at the primaries.
Should Be Honest
The man who sits on the Bench and
tells juries what the law of the state is,
and often controls their verdict by his
"charge," should himself be an honest
man—the taint of dishonor or corrupt
ion .in him lessens the respect of all for
the whole machinery of the law and
breeds lawlessness. He, himself, should
be an example of good citizenship.
The Judge should be a good lawyer, a
man in whose learning and judgment
the Bar has confidence—haphazard de
cisions, or indecision, make trouble.
Look at the tremendous trouble and ex
pense the people of Parker township
have been put to during the past few
years, and they do not know today,
"where they are at," from a legal
standpoint.
Practical politicians and professional
office seekers should be excluded from
the Bench Such men take advantage
of the position to reward their friends
and punish their enemies as opportunity
presents, whereas all should stand
alike before the law, and besides this
they are. as a rule, poor lawyers.
Persistent libertines should be ex
cluded from the Bench, what greater
absurdity oonld be imagined than a
man fitting on the Bench and sentenc
ing other men for crimes of which he,
himself is persistently guilty, and what
worse example to the youth of the com
munity.
SOME people say they are for Greer,
because he has made a good judge. The
people of Parker township should scat
ter over the county and tell their ex
perience with him.
Political Judges
Some time ago we heard one of the
ablest members of the Butler Bar de
plore the condition of the Judiciary of
this state on account of the number of
professional politicians who have se
cured positions on the Bench. These
men, as a rule, are poor lawyers, and
are at all times more interested in keep
ing themselves in office, than in their
duty to the public. The lawyers who
practice before them doubt their law,
and hence the number of cases that find
their way to the Superior and Supreme
Courts—a very expensive proceeding for
litigants
The people of this state should make
an earnest effort to rid themselves of
these leeches, and begin now.
A Card
To THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF
BUTLER COUNTY:
Sometime ago I had prepared what I
supposed was a complete list of all the
Republican candidates, for the different
offices, to be voted for June 7 prox. This
list was sent out with my tickets to dif
ferent parts of the county for the con
venience of the voters.
To-day my attention was called to
the fact that the names of Eli J. Moore
of Muddycreek twp. and James L
Patterson of Jefferson twp., candidates
for County Commissioner, were not on
the list. This was an inadvertence and
unintentional omission, I am sure, al
though Ido not yet know who is to
blame I publish this correction early
for fear that said list might mislead
gome voters. J. D. MCJUNKIN.

[Greer's Superior Court Record.
As everybody knows, the Superior
Court of Pennsylvania was established
in 1895. Since that date this Court has
considered 1946 cases, excluding those
, from Butler county, reported in 18 vol
umes. Of the number of cases consid
j ered 1405 were affirmed and 541 were
' reversed. The percentage of cases re
versed is 27J per cent. In other words
about one case in evefry four is the aver
age number of reversals for each Judge.
Of the total number of cases consid
sidered by this Court, 83 in all, were
Butler county cases, tried by Judge
John M. Greer. Of this number 16
were affirmed and 17 were reversed. In
1 other words more than one-half, or 51 i
! per cent, of the cases, were reversed.
Judge Greer had three years of exper
ience before the Superior Court was or
ganized.

This Court record is called forth in
answer to claims made by some that
Greer had a good Superior Court rec
cord. The above speaks for itself. It
shows that he is 23J per cent, below the
average. If he were marked as the
school children of our county are mark
ed when they are examined he would
have answered only per cent, of the
questions correctly, and whereas the
average Judge in the state of Pennsyl
vania would have a mark of 72J per
cent.
Law Governing Primary Election
As a good deal of doubt and uncer
tainty exists among the voters as to
the right to vote at the nominating or
primary elections, I have been request
ed to give the law on the subject.
Article 8, of the Constitution of Penn
sylvania, prescribes the "qualifications
of electors." Section 1. '"Every male
citizen twenty-one years of age, pos
sessing the following qualifications,
shall be entitled to a vote at all elec
tions."
Elrat. He shall have been a citizen
of the United States at least one month.
Second. He shall have resided in
the State one year immediately prected
ing the election, &c., &c. .
, Third. He shall have resided in the
election district where he shall. offer to
vote, at least two months immediately
preceeding the election.
Fourth. If twenty-two years old, or
upwards, he shall have paid within two
years a State or county tax, which shall
have been assessed at least two months,
and paid at least one month before the
election.
This is fundamental law, imbedded
in the Constitution itself, and cannot be
abridged or taken away by any Act of
the Legislature, or party rules.
It will be observed tuat the Constitu
tion uses the words "entitled to vote at
all elections." "All elections" means
and embraces nominating conventions
or primary elections.
The Act of 29th June, 1881, makes it
the duty of the judges, inspectors and
clerks, or other officers of primary elec
tions, meetings or caucuses to be sworn
to impartially and faithfully perform
their duties, in accordance with the
laws and constitution, and anyone act
ing in such capacity, before subscribing
to the oath, or affirmation required by
this Act. shall, on conviction, be fined
not exceeding two hundred dollars; or
if any judge or inspector shall knowing
ly reject the vote of any person entitled
to yote, or shall knowingly receive the
vote of any person not qualified, he
shall, on conviction, be fined two hun
dred dollars, &c.
The Act of Bth of June, 1881, P. L..
70, 4th Sec., reads as follows: 'lf any
person not qualified to vote at general
election, shall vote at a nominating elec
tion held by any political party or if any
person shall procure any such disquali
fied person to vote, or if any pireou
shall vote at more than one election dis
trict. or if any person shall advise or
procure an other so to do, he or 'he.v
shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and
on conviction, shall be fined the sum of
two-hundred dollars, and imprisoned
for a term not exceeding 3 months."
The two acts referred to were passed
to prevent fraud and bribery, and thev
must be carried out to effect the pur
pose of the enactment. The general in
tent of these two acts was to put the
rights of the voters in party or primary
election under the protection of the law,
in the same manner that rights of voters
at annual elections have always been
under such protection.
Commonwealth vs. Young, 16th Su
perior Court, 317.
Cantwell vs. Ridgw&y, 18 Philadel
phia , 519.
These are therefore held to IKS elec
tion laws, within the meaniog of the
constitution.
The time, places, and modes of hold
ing such primary elections and the
qualifications of the voters are regulated
by the rules of the party. Democrats
are not allowed to yote at Republican
primaries. Neither are Republicans
allowed to vote at Democratic primar
ies. To this extent, each party can fix
the qualification of the voters.
To sum up the law, it comes to this:
That no person has a right to vote at
any primary election, who would not
haye a right to vote at a general elec
tion, and iu; must be in the district
where he offer* to vote at least sixty
days, if a single man; but if a married
man. sixty days in the .district would
not entitle him to vote at a primary
election, if his family lived elsewhere.
Neither would a minor be allowed to
vote at a primary election, though be
might be twenty-one on the next day
after the primary.
Such being the law, let the voter be
are that he does not subject himself
to the penalty of the law, as well as the
person who solicits his vote.
* BLACKSTONE.
Amusing.
Its amusing to think of how many of
the jurors went home from attendance
on our recent sessions of Court, having
received the assurance of his honor(?>,
the Judge, that he would see to it that
they would soon be back on the jury
again. Many of them smiled as they
thought of it afterwards.
ONE OF THEM.
A Judicial Outrage.
MR. EDITOR:— About ten months ago
Win. C. Findley, a member of the But
ler Bar, was boarding at the Nijcon
Home, and Jas O'Donnell was also a
boarder at the same place. The latter
made insulting remarks to the inmates
of the house, and insnlted Mr. Findley.
and continued to insult him from time
to time, until the 12th of March, when
he met Mr. Findley on Main St .Butler.
Here he renewed his insulting language
and threatened him, saying that when
he caught him off Main street he would
fix him, etc.
Mr. Findley feeling that he was not
safe when his adversary was at large
and unrestrained, made information
against him before Esq. McElvain. and
he gave bail for his appearance at
Court. This was returned to Court for
final hearing.
On Saturday, the '34 th, the hearing
was held before Judge Greer. Mr.
Findley testified to the repeated insults
he had received from the defendant, and
to the threats made. In his state
ment he was coroborated by several
witnesses.
The defendant made little so
far as testimony was concerned. Nev
ertheless Judge Greer discharged the
defendant and ordered that Mr. Find
ley pay the cost. All within hearing of
the Judge were surprised, regarding it
as practically putting a premium on
lawlessness and disorder.
The only explanation is that Mr.
Findley had not been supporting the
Judge in his aspirations to be his own
successor. OBSERVER.

Notice
To the-members of the primary election
boards of the Republican party: —
In addition to what was published in
the papers last week, I also wish to call
the attention of the members of the
primary boards to sections 3 and 4 of
the rules adopted February ;»th. 1901,
which read as follows:
3rd. It shall be the duty of the judge
to receive the votes at the primary
election and number each ballot as re
ceived and deposit the same in a box to
be provided for the purpose, bnt if a
question arises as to the reception of
