OUH JUDICIAL COXTEST
From reports received Uerealiittor
contest, widen lias not yet apparent
ly reached its neatest stage, is in
progress in tho lower end of
this district for the judicial
nomination. It is contended, and
usually agreed that a canvas for
the high office ofJudge should bo
conducted on higher planes, in a
franker manner and witu less
asperity than may characterize the
strife for othor positions, A mm
partisan judiciary, however desir
able, is perhaps a Utopian dream
nnd we may expect so long as political
parties exist to have more or less
contention between them over tho
nominee. Often within a party the
struggle becomes koon and the con
test acrimonious The human
mind is weak and prono to remem
ber friends and punish enemios or
opponents when the occasion affords
and a person nfter elevation to the
bench can hardly, however much
he may dosire, wholly forget the
unpleasant incidents of his candi
daoy. For this reason unseemly
strife should be deprocated, uud
every move which might be viewed
as trick to win a nomination cbould
bo discountenanced by the candi
dates and their friends. We do not
intend to indite a homily, because
allactively engaged in the present
contest must be fully alive to the
amenities which should govern, but
in view of the act of assembly
governing nominations to office, it
seems proporjto ask oar democratic
friends in this oounty the object
they had in view, in placing tho
name of one judicial candidate on
their ticket.
The act of 1897providos as follows :
"That if any political party has by
its rules provided for a registration
of candidates for nominations, and
at the time limited lor such regis
tration, or at any subsequent time,
by reason of withdrawal or othor
cause there shall bo no more candi
dates lor any omee registered or
remaining than are to be elected to
such office, the person or persons so
registered or remaining shall be
deemed the nominee or nominees,
with the same effect as if ho or thev
had been nominated by a convon
tion or primary mooting, or caucus,
or board. And one or more or all
the officers of the committee of bucIi
political party with which such
registration ahull bo made, or the
officer with whom it is made, shall
make a certificate of such nomina
tion in the same manner and with
the Kraie effect as if there had been
a nomination ty a convention or
primary meeting or caucus or
board."
It cannot bo donied that there
were no more candidates for tho
office of judge than is to bo elected,
viz., one hence under tho act
above, inasmuch as the party rules
provide for registration, and but
" ,' , , ,
registered, why did
one candidate
not our democratic friends follow
the provisions of tho act and certify
the person registered as the nominee
without submitting his name to tln
people? The act says, "shall bj
deemed the nominee." What diver
sion did our friends expect to crento
by having the candidate voted for?
Did they expect, or hope this might
strengthen some of the weak points
in the ticket or were thoy ignorant
of the act of assembly?
lioing benighted we cau only fct
iafy our craving for knowledge by
asking of those presumed to know
the reasons, for what seems to us
outsiders to have boon wholly un
neensary under the lu w tl.eplacing of
one name on the ticket as a candi
date for judge. Unless cur demo
cratic friouds in 1 lite can give a :
satisfactory answer they must:
either plead ignorance of law or j
admit and ulterior motive and as i
we before remarked such things in ;

We still continue to receive inter

Senator Morgan's opinion of the

It is rather hard on Senator Burton

The date set for the evacuation of

In addition to advising his party
as to whatconstitutes truedeinocrwy,
Mr. Bryan has now assumed the role
of general expounder of political
creeds; he denounces the new popu
list manifesto in which that party
severs its connection with the democ
racy, and ascribes to the populist
leaders ulterior motives and the
promise of a reward from republican
sources. Mr. Bryan occupies one
page of the Commoner with this little
statement.
Speaking of the recent split in
populism, the Kansas City Journal
thinks the move insignificant for it
says that while it is easier to break
sticks separately than when tied In a
bundle, yet if all the sticks are small
nnd rotten a vigorous man might
prefer to take them all at one time.
t Notwithstanding the feverish con
dition of Wall Street the next six
months gives indication of a firm
continuance of national prosperity.
The wheat crop according to all
estimates will be enormous probably
a record breaker the cotton crop will
be eleven million bales, or more than
three quarters of the world's output,
the corn crop will likely reach 2,500,
1100,000 bushels and the manufactur
ing nnd mining output promises to
keep even with the highest figures.
The actual prosperity of the country
is unchecked and it goes to show that
after all Wall Street is far from being
the whole thing.
