The judicial Election

On next Monday, June Sd, the RESPONSE
bic duty of electing Judge of this Judici-
al Circuit for the next six years, will de-
volya upon the people. The election is
indeed very important one, and should
not be neglected by the voters of the Cir
cult.
Henry Snapp of this county, and Sidney
W. Harris of Grundy County, are the only
candidates named for the position. Aswe
stated last week, either of them is compe-
tent and well fitted for the Office. And as
thoroughly acquainted as both of them are
throughout the Circuit, it would be surer~
fiuous in us to attempt to introduce them
to our readers.
Both Mr.. Snapp and Mr. Harris have
been called out as candidates by men of all
political parties And their letters of ac-
ceptance ignore party. Therefore, every
elector is left perfectly free to exercise his
own judgment in the matter. There is no
party in this contest 1t is a "free fight,

cial elections political strifes between uar-

ton Of our judiciary officers, let US ingnore
politics, and let us lock to the man best
calculated for the responsible position.
Democrats, go to the polls on Monday
and vote fer the man of your choice with
out reference to the political views he may
have Entertained heretofore. If you vote
for Mr.. Snapp, it is all right. And as for
Mr.. Harris he is entitled to like respect
and consideration.
One thing is certain, whether Mr.. Snapp
or Mr. Harris be selected, the people of
the Circuit may rest assured that we
shall have good Judge-one fully quail
fed in every essential particular.
