Election in Wisconsin.

On Tuesday. the people of Wisconsin held
an election for Justice of the Supreme
Court. We believe neither party nomin-
ated candidates, and the contest assumed
the rather novel and disgraceful shape, as
to whether Judge should be elected who
would sustain the Home League repudia-
ton law, which, we believe, invalidates
certain mortgages given by farmers along
