TUNKHANNOCK MAN
MENI*ONED FEDERAL
JUDGE POSSIBILITY
Attorney Edward B. 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.”
