Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1875-11-26

THE State Register, of last Friday
morning, contains communication
from Hon. c. c. Cole, of the Iowa
Supreme Court, to Gov. Carpenter,
rendering his resignation of the Office
of Judge of said court, the same to
take effect January 18th, 1875. The
reason given by Judge Cole for this
step is insufficient salary to support
his family. He accompanies his
resignation with recommendation
that the salaries of District and Cir
cult Judge be raised to $4,000, and
Of Supreme Judges to $4,000 per an
mum; and, also. that another Judge
be added to the Supreme bench
Judge Cole is undoubtedly the ablest
member of the Court, but of late
there has obtained, in many quarters,
lack Of confidence in his decisions
and a distrust of his influence in the
Court, which will secure a very gen.
eral acquiescence in his retirement
from the bench, The appointment
of his successor, to serve until the
next general election, will deyolve
upon Gov. Kirkwood, who will doubt
less exercise wise discretion in the
choice

The Democrats of the House at
the next session will, in the opinion
Of the New York Herald, let the
currency question severely alone
The Herald says:
"Their western members, smarting
under their recent defeat, might be
rash enough to propose repeal Of
the Resumption act of the last Con-
gress, but they will be prevented, if
possible, by the cooler Democratic
heads. The hard-money Democrats
will not propose any measure, because
it would not conduce to marty har-
mony to irritate and humiliate their
erring brethren Of the West by de-
handing SO early and open a renun-
citation of their recent views. The
Democrats of the House will try to
evade the currency question, and to
occupy and engross public attention
with great parade Of Investigations.
All that the Senate
needs to do Is to pass a bill for giving
efficiency to the Resumption act Of
last January, and send it to the House.
This would infallibly set the Demo
Gratis of the House by the ears"
