DisTRIcT JUDGEs.-It will be recol
lected that stir was made by the San
Francisco press last summer, about the
election of all District Judges at the
last election. 1t was argued that all
District Judges must be elected in 1858,
and the articles were written in such
plausible shape as to induce the Cover
nor to order an election for District
Judges throughout the State. We
showed up the fallacy of the argument
at the time, but without effect upon po.
litical action. Candidates were not
wanting to run, and some put them
selves in most disgraceful and dishonor
able attitudes to run for a barren prize.
The Supreme Court has just decided
in the case between Hagar and Burbank
in the 4th judicial district, that the
election of last fall did not make Bur.
bank Judge, but that Hagar continue.
in. Office to the end of constitutional
term - six years. Hagar entertained
the opinion just enunciated by the Su
preme Court, and refused to run agair
at the last election.
By this decision the election of Judge
Scarls last fall is of no effect

IiUo other Robbers Arrested-Oue Es
capped. - Broullette and Archer, who,
with Boley, were engaged IN the at
tempt to rob Nichols, were arrested near
Clear Lake, on Tuesday of last week.
They exchanged horses at Brady's
ranch, twelve miles from Marysvile,
taking two others belonging to Mr.
McQuaid, who in company with four
others pursued them to Colusa, and from
thence to Clear Lake on the coast range.
The pursuing party came upon the
robbers and ordered them to hold up
their hands or they would be fired upon
AN order that was complied with as
there was no escape. Brouillette and
Archer were disarmed and taken to
Colusa. Broulllette was stupidity a.
lowed to escape by constable having
him in charge. Archer, or Archie, was
safely lodged in the Marysville Jail
where he is awaiting trial. Boley will
be sent to Yuba shortly to take his
chances before the Courts-the offense
having been committed in that county
Brouillette cannot long escape. He
is so well known and marked that il is
impossible that he should elude the Wig
lance of officers A reward of $1,000
would be almost sure to corral him. I

WANTS EXPLANATIoN.- readers
of the Union, especially the legal and
newspaporial part Of them. were sur
prised few days since to receive that
paper without the usual Supreme Court
decisions. 1t was feature of the pa
per not only interesting to its readers
pretty generally but valuable to many
Of them. We hear no other than ex-
pressions of disapprobation at the course
of the Supreme Court in Withholding the
decisions from the Union. Their con-
duet in this case needs explanation.
The Union at its own expense has
published the decisions for years. No
other paper attempted to enter this field
of enterprise. 1t is not denied that the
reports in the Union have been correct
ly published. No unwarrantable liber-
ties have been taken with the written
opinions ofthe judges by that paper
In short there is no complaint whatever
alleged.
But the time arrived when locofoco
sheet had to be started at the capital
1t must be supported somehow. In de-
fault of patrons, it seems the Supreme
Court has descendedifrom its high posi-
ton to put its shoulders to the dirty
wheels of a party organ. The Other
day the Union sent to the Court rooms
as usual for copies Of the decisions. The
originals were in the possession of the
Standard. and the Union man was cool
ly told he must go to the office of the
Standard for them! This is little the
meanest piece of business we have yet
heard of Every fair mind in the State
will condemn it. No one will object tt
the STANDARD or any other paper enter
ing into competition with the Union ii
any field Let both papers have access
to the decisions of the Supreme Cour
alike. But to deny paper privilege
it has had for years, for the sole idea o
benefitinga half fedged rival is despica
bly, mean for a Supreme Court. 1t nigh
become Legislature-say the presen
one--but is quite below the dignity o
the highest tribunal of the State. This
act can have but one obiect-that O.
transferring patronage from the Unio'
to the Democratic organ. The decis
ions are indispensable to the lawyers
and the locofoco clique that are dand
ling the newborn organ in swaddlins
clothes fondly imagine they can substi
tute their pet for the Union among th'
people. Such is doubtless the idea en-
tertained By those who have the organ
in charge.

ABOUT MOUNT VERNoN-We publish
on the outside an eloquent appeal of
Mrs. Magdalen Ct. Blanding, to the la
dies of California. The object of the
appeal is to awaken an interest through
uut the golden state in the purchase of
the home ard grave of Washington.-
While we would have that nation which
owes so much to her favorite son own
tine sacred spot in which he lies entomb-
ed. yet as the hope is futile that the
hallowed groves of Mount Vernon will
ever become the property of the Repub-
lie, we hail the movement Of the coun-
try women of Washington as worthy of
them and the age. They are engaged
in more than patriotic-a holy cause.
While the spirit of party would force the
government to expcnd hundred mil
lions to purchase discordant elements
with which TO weaken the bonds OF
union, the ladies, true to the instincts
of the sex, are touching and tuning
anew the tenderest cords that vibrate
in the American heart. They are
rcusing the slumbering pulsati"ns
of patriotism and Ldrawing nearer
md nearer the affections of
the people around the national shrine
where all true Americans swear anew
their fealty TO cou, try over the ashes
of its father. In the solemn conviction
of duty, we hope and trust the ladies of
California will act as becometh the sa-
| crednesS of the occasion. Youngest OF
the American sisterhood, far from the
national fame she is asked to aid in
preserving, California will not Lc the
least in the good work American ladies
have gloriously undertaken to perform.

We commend the sacred cause, the
purchase of Mount Vernon, to every
lady ami gentlemen by whom these
lines shall be read, as the noblest of the
age. Itis perhaps, the only opportunity
that will ever be afforded them of pay
ing substantial tribute to the memory
of Washington. An occasion like the
present occurs at rare intervals in the
history of a nation. Who does not de,

come an owner in the home and tomb OF

WANTED.-On the Supreme Bench
thorough lawyer from the mining regions
of the State. Among all the wants of
the State she wants nothing so much as
a representative from the mining coun
ties in her highest tribunal. The diff
cult cases upon which the Courts are
called to adjudicate come from the mines.
Water rights, tunnel claims and their
newell interests, are the most difficult to
be guarded by the Courts, Offering the
most perplexing questions and requiring
not only the soundest ideas of equity,
but the most varied and extensive ex-
pprienoo to prvPcriy determine and set
tic. No other than lawyer of eminent
ability, well versed in every department
of law, and enjoying large practice in
mining cases is fit to pass Judgment in
such cases when brought to the Court of
last resort. These cases are new and
uncommon and require to be settled right
in the beginning. Such lawyers as have
hitherto found their way to the Supreme
Bench are, for reasons already given, in
competent to the task. Learned as
they may have been, or are, expert
enced as they doubtless have been in
the ordinary cases of commercial law,
such as have been decided upon hund-
red times in older civilized States, they
are lily qualified to dispose of an intri-
cate case arising in the mines, perhaps
never before originated in the judi
cial history of an American or Euro
pean State. The case may be and is
= likely to be sui generis. Then arises
the necessity of a master mind joined to
an extensive knowledge of circumstan-
ces surrounding the case, to dispose of it
cquitably and justly to all parties-to
establish new bases upon which all SINH
lar questions can be adjudicated. We
want ajudge who will out of confusion
set free the foundation principles ofmin-
ing law, and create touchstone by
which subsequent judgments may be
judged. We want beginning to order
and an end to uncertainty and confusion.
To this end we shall hereafter labor for
the elevation of the right kind of a man
from the mines to the Supreme Bench
The agricultural and commercial sec
tions of the State. where only questions
long since decided arise, have been rep
resented exclusively long enough. 1t is
time the miners obtained those rights
for themselves which the Importance of
their litigation demands. They want a
man who understands the circumstances
in which they are placed, and who has the
honesty and capability to do them just
ice. AS yet they have been forced to
submit their cases to judges incompetent
to do exactjustice.
In making these remarks we intend
no reflection on the honesty or ability of
the Supreme Court as at present organ
lied. The judges are able legal gentle
men and are able to decide upon any
question liable to arise in any ordinary
state of affairs. We deny to them ex,
perience in a peculiar class of case:
