Elective Judiciary.

The Land and Lo,c AdcisOr, published
in Pittsburgh, Penn, Says: until the
elective judiciary was introduced, the
courts of Pennsylvania had the respect
and confidence of the whole country, Just
as much as the courts Of Massachusetts
had. Our Mckeans, Gibsons and Burn
sides were not particle inferior to any
OF the judges. not only of Massachusetts
but of the United States, or Great Britain.
We sorrowfully admit that our present
race of judges are fallen from the stand
ard of their predecessors, and We sorrow
fully feel that they are so fallen because
they are elective"
The AdrisOr's remarks do not apply to
the Judiciary in this State Although our
Judges are elected by the votes of the
people, the candidates are, probably with
out an exception, selected bt prominent
members of the bar, who are supposed to
be better qualified than those who are not
lawyers, to judge of the fitness of men for
the office. If mistakes are made the fault
is with the gentlemen of the legal profess
sion, or with the people for too confident
ly trusting them.

SORRY Fer 1T.

Our Argos correspondent has given Of
Tense to Mr.. NJ L. Smith, for whom we
have always entertained great respect.
For we have always heard him spoken OF
'as gentlemen of generous impulses. In
what manner Mr.. Smith has been III tleat-
ed we know not. Nothing has ever been
said Of him in the REPUBLICAN to lessen
our esteem of him. We know our cor
respondent has done good service to Ar
COS andits business men, in his c0mmu-
nications, and we know too that. he has
done much for US in business way, to
help US along-more than any other per-
son in Argos, and we do not feel inclined
to condemn him. There may be some i'll
feeling between the parties named, which
gives significance to some things pub
Iished, which is not understood by US, or
by other outsiders. 1t is not our desire
to publish anything with design to of
fend-nor do we wish to publish anything
of "A private nature, which the public have
no business with. That which the public
have a right to know we will publish,
even if it does offend some persons; but
never with a design or desire to offend.

detection.
On Tuesday night last, at Waterloo,
Iowa, he drowned HIMSELF in Cedar River
near that place. He was pastor of the
M. E. Church there. His wife was dang
erously ill, and this is supposed to have
depressed and deranged his mind, and led
to this fatal step. He left the following
letter to his wife:
DEAR WIFE We have parted to meet
no more. You have been a faithful and
loving companion to me. You will find
my poor body in the Cedar River. God
bless you and the dear little ones. hope
God will forgive me for my past life and
that we will meet in Heaven. Tell JIM
mic to be good boy. All the money
had gave to Clarence just before l went
to the river. Farewell till the Judgment.
Your HUSBAND.
His body was found In Cedar River on
Wednesday morning. His untimely end
win be regretted by many who read this
record Valparaiso Vidette.
