D6T The war has been transferred to loyal
ground. We had hoped that free soil would
be spared the desolating track Of war, ana
the happy homes reared and beautifed by Free
Labor be unmolested by the vandalism Of sla-
very. But the sympathy expressed for our
"deluded Southern brethren" by Northern Cop
perheads has practically invited the inevitable
laying waste of the fair fields of Pennsylvania.
The latest dispatches inform us that Lees
whole army has entered Pennsylvania, and are
advancing in three columns. 1t has thrown
the whole North into CONSERVATION, and the
Copperheads forget their past actions and rush
70 the defence of their homes. The President
has called out 100000 men from the States of
New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, to serve
six months In addition to this, Gov. Curtin
has called out the entire militia force of Penn
sylvania. The vigorous steps taken will for
bid them penetrating very far. Hooker is in
pursuit of Lee, so that his chances for o sue
cessful raid are slim.

The Santa Fe New Mexican copies an article
from our columns regarding the Smoky Hill
Route, and asks for more information concerning
it, saying that the merchants of Santa Fe will
not be slow to avail themselves of its advantages,
If they find them to be such. Since the article
above alluded to appeared in our columns, we
have published several statements in respect to
the advantages which we claim for this route
over others. and from which the New Mexican
can gain an idea of the benefits to be derived BY
following it. In order that the people of New
Mexico may not be misled, but be prepared to
act on their own judgement in casting aside the
old road for the new, we would advise those Of
her citizens who contemplate visiting the States,
to buy tickets only to Fort Larned, where they
can connect with the Kansas Stage Line over the
Smoky Hill Route, and be able to test for them.

FOR CHIEF JUSTICE.

The contest of Messrs. Watson and Cobb, re.
specting the Chief Justiceship, is still pending
before the Supreme Court. When decision
will be arrived at it is difficult to even surmise
In the meantime, Mr.. Cobb, the appointee of
Governor Robinson, will fill the position.
The Constitution of the State provides for
filing any vacancy that may occur in any judi
ciat Office by appointment by the Governor,
when such vacancy occurs more than thirty days
previous to general election. By the terms of
the Constitution the people at the next general
election are to fill said vacancy. But the con.
test arises from the fact that Judge Ewing did
not resign the position thirty days previous to
last falls election, and hence very plausible
quibble exists to give the position to Cobb, the
appointee, over Watson, the choice of the people
It 10 therefore probable that the decision will be
in favor of Cobb.
The Republican State Central Committee, at
its late meeting in Leavenworh, authorized its
Chairman to call a meeting, after a decision is
given. to take into consideration the subject Of
nominating . Chief Justice. We will speak on
the contingency that Cobb is the successful one
in the pending case. An election of q Chief
Justice next fall, then, becomes necessary.
For this position, We would bring forward
D. P. LOWE. Of Linn county. Judge LOWE, being
modest, straightforward unassuming man. has
no claim other than competence. He is not an
intriguing wire-puller-his first appearance in
our State politics being last fall, when he was
cent to the Senate. where his legal knowledge
and mental abilities soon made him leader of
that body. If any political action of his were
wanting to fit him, then his refusal to accept
nomination of the Boilers last fall, would make
up the deficiency. This position should not be
one Of favor, but one of merit He il the best
man in the State for the position, and we hope
that instead of pensioning off some weashercock
With it. Judge LOWE may be chosen a. our Chief
Justice. ab .-.
