A Good s Suggestion.

The Republican Judicial Conven-
ton for this district, will be held on
Wednesday of next week, at Green
field.
AS the district is quite close, and
there are two Judges to elect, it has
been suggested that the Democrats
make no nomination for the short
term, and the Republicans none for
lifelong term, SO that there will be one
Judge of each party chosen by com
mon consent. We endorse the sug-
gestion as eminently proper, and
worthy of the Centennial year, that
for once the district should elect
Judges without any display of party
feeling, and we hope the Central
Committees of both parties will take
the necessary action to bring about
the desired result.
