Farr Looked Upon As Compromise Candi- date for Important Office Regarding the appointment of a Federal court judge for the Middle District, the Tunkhannock New Age and Republican has the following to say this week: “Interest increases rather than diminishes in the question as to who will be appointed federal judge for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Such judges are appointed by the President upon nomination by the Attorney Gen- eral. Shortly after the act was passed providing for an additional judge in this district, Senator David B. Reed recommended the nomination of Judge Albert I. Watson, of Scranton, to At- torney General Mitchell. Judge Wat- son was backed by Mrs. Worthington Scranton, who has much influence in this part of the State. For some rea- son Attorney General Mitchell has held up the nomination of Judge Wat- son, and other men are being consid- ered for the position, among them At- torney Edward B. Farr of Tunkhan- nock. “It is known that men have been sent here to investigate the ability and fitness of Mr. Farr, and have gone away much impressed with his avail- ability as a compromise candidate. Though he has not put himself for- ward in the matter at all, he has the backing of prominent influential men, not only in this county, but from other parts of the State. He has been in law practice since 1903 and his business has steadily in- creased so that now:he has a larger practice than any other lawyer in Wyoming county ever enjoyed. He was elected district attorney for three terms in succession, but resigned dur- ing the third term because the duties of the office compelled him to neglect some of his other affairs. He has tried many important cases with signal suc- cess and has also had practice in the Superior and Supreme Courts. “He was postmaster eight years, during more commodious postoffice building. first village delivery of mail in dur- ing his regime, as well as several rural nail routes. He -is attorney for several the IL.ehigh and D. IL. W. railroads. All these things bespeak his ability in his chosen profession. “In case the appointment should come to him it would not only give prestige to himself, but be a matter of pride to the" citizens of Wyoming county.” so The Cherokees The Cherokees were the largest and most important Indian tribe original ly east of the Alleghenries, perhaps the highest in culture and intellectual receptivity north of Mexico.
