The Nominations for the Supreme Court.

In speaking of proper persons for the va
rious Offices to be filed in this State, next
fall, the claims of Judge L. D. Bailey for a
reelection are entirely passed over. Judge
Bailey is one of the best lawyers in the State
is sound, discreet, upright and just, and
no better man could be found for the place.
He has not identified himself with any of
the petty quarrels and isms affecting our
State; and we think the best thing the State
could do on that point, would be to re-elect
Judge Bailey White Cloud Chief.
The above, from the extreme north of
the State, will find a ready and emphatic
response from this section, where Judge
Bailey is personally known. He has been
known to the citizens of Central and South
western Kansas, from the earliest settlement
of the State, and has ever proved himself
an able and honest man. His judicial ca
reer, since the admission of the State and
the organization of the Supreme Court, has
amply demonstrated his eminent fitness for
the position. II reelected he will bring to
the discharge of his duties valuable judi
cial experience, which no fresh incumbent
could command. The remark of the Chief,
that Judge Bailey has not mixed himself up
with the personal quarrels of our promi-
nent politicians, is correct; and if there is
any place which should be kept free from
those unfortunate wars of faction that have
done so much to degrade Kansas politics,
that place is the Supreme Bench. We trust
that Judge Bailey may receive unanimous
denomination for the position he has 80
we'll filled.
EDITOR NEWS: The above clip from the
Lawrence Republican of the Sd inst.
have shown it to some of the leading citi-
zens of this county, where Judge Bailey is
perhaps better known than in any other
part of the State; and the universal re.
spouse has been, that he is the most accept
able man to the people of Southern Kansas
that could be brought forward-and Igor
county, think, will show that she appre
ciates an impartial Judge, by giving him {
much heavier vote, in proportion to the vote
; polled, than he received before, should he
be again placed in nomination. Every
person that have spoken to admits tina
there is less partisan feeling about Judge
Bailey than any man that has been inter
ested in politics in Southern Kansas. While
he is terribly in earnest for the success o.
the Republican party, he never allows hi
political opinions to control his social o.
t official actions. AS Prentice says of thu
rebel leaders being upon the gallows with
rope around the neck, Judge Bailey fo
Associate-Ju is the right man in the
right place. H. F. G.

meats, and luxuries that would have done credit
to picnic party in any of the older States. Our
appetites having been sharpened by exercise and
fasting from an early breakfast till that time Of

supper in readiness, gotten up in style. So many
were the inviting luxuries that. notwithstanding
