thousand dollars, to be content with
the half OF that sum as Judge and TO
consider the honor and glory OF the
station full reward for the other
moiety. Judges should have good
living salary. The better the salary,
most likely, the better the Judge, be-
cause the talented man WHO has tine
income, then feels less hesitation in
giving up his business to others, and,
at proper period OF life, assuming the
dignity Of the ermine. Iowa has lost
two good Judges lately because ofthe
sparseness Of the salary. The one has
gone into a Federal position with a
life tenure and fair remuneration,
and the other, after tolling for years
and years, has been translated to the
more lucrative position of United
States Senator. And yet, both these
shining lights would have been entire
ly satisfied to emit their radiance, with
in the sphere in which they have been
moving SO acceptably and so reputably,
if their places could have been assured
and their pay had been decently sufii-
cient.
And, if Constitutional Convention
Of Iowa can be induced to make these
changes and thus establish our Judicia
ry upon proper, firm and enduring
basis, in order to add to its honor, use
tulness and dignity, we hope the re-
striction will be imposed, that the oc-
cupant Of the position shall be incligi-
BILE to any other Office of trust or profit
for the full time for which he was ap-
pointed and for some specified period
thereafter This will preserve the Ju.
dietary intact, keep it within proper
bounds OF thought and action and take
away all motive for dabbling in the inl-
pure pool OF politics. Ii our Ma
tional judiciary could have had this
restraining feature, John Mclean and
Salmon p Chase would have been de-
barred from aspirations to the Presi-
dency. And, who can doubt that their
usefulness would have been materially
increased thereby?
Journals throughout Iowa may find
other reasons for calling Convention
we may see others ourselves
but, to our view, reform III our Ju-
dicial system is needed badly, as we
are growing in importance as a State.

The j Judiciary.

II, in two years we shall have Con
stitutional Convention, we hope to see
the body take into serious consldera
tion the propricty OF remodelling our
Judiciary system, rs to the manner OF
appointment, the tenure OF office and
the amount Of compensation. For
this alone, if nothing else, we shall
advocate and vote Tor the assembling
of convention.
We are opposed to an elective ju-
dietary, and SO, we believe are the peo-
pie at large-at least, we trust they
are. As well might we enact laws by
4 general townmeeting, and without
the intervention and deliberation OF a
Legislative body, as to vote broadcast
and blindly for those who are to occu-
py the responsible positions of con-
STRUNG them. Offices OF such special
importance, ths filling OF which involve
such vital interests, should not be made
the sport OF reckless, wayward, nomin.
ating conventions. The greatest care
should be exercised and the most pro-
found thought bestowed upon the Sc
lection of the members OF the judiciary.
The best plan, as experience shows, is
to give the nominating power to the
Governor and confirming power to the
Senate: and the next best, to make the
appointments by the Legislature in
Joint Meeting. Because, so tar, unlike
New York, we have been exceedingly
fortunate in Iowa, under the elective
system, it does not follow that the same
good luck will attend Us forever. In
der it also, let it be remembered, by
the corrupting influences of party man
ipulations, it is possible tor us to have
degenerate and even debased judi
CARY. The chances for such an event
occurring should be made as few as
possible, in fact, should be guarded
against absolutely.
We are N favor of reasonably long
tenure of Office. When man OF prop
er qualifications is placed in judicial
position it should be virtually life
pursuit. Good Judges cannot be made
in day, nor can the proper material
be picked up in the first lawyers office
you may stumble across. Generally,
men who have been long engaged in
practice, whose heads are well balanced,
whose judgments areproperlymatnr
and whose industry i'll and love for
their profession are productive OF COM
mon remark, are the ones tor Judges.
Having spent the best part OF their
lives as connsellors and advocates, if
transferred to the bench, the tenure OF
office should be such that they can re-
~ upon Icing retained in their changed
relations.
We are also in favor of paying per-
sons who are fit to be Judges, an ade-
quate compensation. II is folly to ex-
pect a man whose yearly income is five

NEED OF CAEE.-It IS not quite en-
couraging to lind, about some school
houses, such marks Of official careless
ness as to lead one to teel that there is
no one to care ior these places where
the peoples taxes are expended and
their children educated. We regret
to record marks Of this kind such as
at Sub-Distrlct No. ;, Richland town
ship, where the door of the school
house is broken and 50 utterly dilapi-
dated as to make it impossible for any
kind of care to keep the house warm.
Similarly, hut not 50 bad, is the
case at Chelsea, where one door, beng
off the hinges, is nailed up and sticks
of wood piled against the outside Of it
to warn you that there is no admis-
sion there. The only step at the
other door is said to have been built
by some OF the citizens, and it is even
whispered that school has been ad-
joarned to accommodate a jansle in
the form OF a law suit. II these things
are true, as represented, they are ut,
terly reprehensible and demand re-
form.
