the most complete type of the low-bred, low
toned, unlearned and unhonored judge we
must look at the elective judiciary Of New
York.
The Constitutional Convention Of 1867 pro-
posed plan for reforming this abuse, and a
statute has since provided for carrying the
plan into effect. In accordance with this stat
ute the question is to be submitted to the
popular vote at the general election next
month, I, whether the Offices of Judges of the
Court of Appeals and The Supreme Court, and
Q, whether the offices of Judges OF the SUI
perior Court and Court Of Common Pleas of
New-York City and County, Superior Court of
Buffalo, City Court of Brooklyn, and County
Judge of the several counties of the State
shall hereafter be filed by appointment. If a
reasonably full vote could be obtained on this
issue we have no doubt the reform would
be carried out. But the political managers on
both sides are averse to a change which would
diminish the spoils of Office and relax the hold
they have upon certain class OF their tools
and followers There is danger OF the reform
falling through the dishonest inaction of
the politicians and the lethargy of the
people. A vigorous expression of opinion by
the bar, by the press, and by good citizens
generally will have its effect; and meanwhile
we urge the Bar Association to see that bal
lots are provided in abundance and proper
means taken to distribute them at the polls.
