The Richmond palladium. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1855-1875, 1872-02-03

The Richmond Radical has sud.
denly snnbbed the Connersvilie
Times in its officious manifesto
tions of friendship towards the
Hon. G. w. We give q paragraph:
There is time enough yet to CON
slider all such matters; but in nc
event will it be wise or safe for the
friends Of oar present n;s-repre-
sentative to press his claims fer a
MISUNDERSTANDING Tri-
bune.
We are sorry to sec the Tribune
even implicitly endorse the state
ment OF the Radical that Judge
Wilson is oar misrepresentation
Such q statement in the Radical
would demand no ment, but to
be copied and virtually. endorsed
by the Tribune is something VIC
cannot let pass unnoticed.
Judge Wilson is in no sense o
mis-Representative. He fairly
and equarely heat Judge Gooding
and 10 as much entitled to his seat
in Congress as any member of that
body. He is our legal and true
representative, and we have nc
fears Of the result OF the contest
instituted by Gooding. y
Judge Wilson is one of the
ablest men in the district or State.
and in point Of legal ability his
standing is high even in the ma
ton. In proof OF this we have
only to say that he was appointed
a member Of the House Judicial
ry Committee, the second commit
tee in importance in the House,
and which contains Bringham end
Butler. whose legal ability are uni
versally recognized. Judge Will
con was placed on this committed
when it already contained another
Observation-Disclosures this
State, and it is q rare thing to
place two men from the came State
on such an important committee.
We should like to know if this is
not recognition of the first order
OF the abilities Of our present Rep
resentative.
Judge Wilson is one of the hard !.
est working members of Congress,
deyoting his whole time to his
Congressional duties and attending
to the many claims Of his constitu-
ents. He denied himself the two
weeks vacation. during which most
OF the members left Washington,
and spent the time in the Depart
ments almost entirely in the in
terests Of the people Of his dis
trict. His time is SO wholly giver
up to the proper duties of his POI
sition, that he finds little or NJ
time to devote towards securing I
denomination. but is leaving tina
matter with the people, who volun
tarily brought him out two years
ago, and who. we have no doubt
will re~nominate and re-elect hin
: this year.
1t is ungentlemanly, to say tn
least, in the Tribune to assist tn
; Radical in its vile abuse of Judg
Wilson. It has = perfect right t,
; oppose his denomination, but
, should treat him fairly as it shout
all other candidates. and in tn
: same manner that it would hav
) others treat its first choice for th
same or any other posi.ion.-[ Con
