HONORABLE WITHDRAWAL.

On Saturday last before the First District Court Mr.
u Lugenbuhl, through his counsel withdrew his euit
contesng the election of Mr.. p g. Witt to the office of
Clerk OF this Second District Court This is credtabe to
the good sense and experience of mr. L. and will unoues
tonaby operate in his favor future occasions The
only wonder is why gentleman of his experience and
tact should have committed the bunder of contrasting the
election at ALL He has something lose; and be should
have recoeced that eontesng candidates even If thew
succeed by Of legal forms and techncaties in
forcing themselves into office, invariably dropped
when their term expires The people have an innate and
weounded repugnance to who prefer getting Office
through the medium Of courts and ures instead of the
ballotbox And well they may. Where candidates are
afraid Of the people, it high time for the people to be-
come fearful Of the candidates.
There In an implied indescrbable reproach attending
the contrasting Of elections which is rarely if ever for
gotten No matter what the result or what the circum
stances of the the of the people m say and
will believe that man who, questionable legal points
seeks to override the popular current rod override and
trampe on The people themselves the opportunity af
forded him. And this impression is never etaced from
their minds They cannot and will not forget that the
person thus situated sought trial before the courts IN
stead of trial before isem.
All of the contestng parties could have had new trial
before the people If they had only signfed such de-
sire But did they Mo- When asked to 90 before the
people they urged on legal measures When dared to try
the issue OF another popular verdict they pointed to
courts and uries and would submit to no other arbitra
ment They would have nothing to do with the people
1t would be much better if the balance of the contest
ants would retire as gracefully has MIR. Lugenbuhl
At all events we feel assured it would be profitable ven
ture for those who intend making in political
stock in future
We know Of another contestant who would never have
brought suit had he not been talked into n to use
his own language, He admits it is losing game in
which neFer would have been engaged but forhs friends
Such friends The fewer man has Of them the better
