Candidates for the Court OF
ADpenls.


A great deal that is not complimentary
might truthfully be said about two Of the
Democratic nominees for the Supreme
bench. The last few days have thrown u
cloud over part OF that ticket in this
part OF the State, and as regards the nom.
ination OF okey Johnson, there are plenty
OF Democrats as well as Republicans quite
ready to say, in the language OF Mr.. Web
ster, at is one not ft to have been made"
The Parkersburg Convention will have
the opportunity to make nominations for
the Supreme bench that will command
the support OF Democrats as we'll as Re-
publieans. II that Convention, is wise IL
will nominate the best Qualified men in
the partp and altogether ignore mere pro-
iessional place hunters. There are good
men to choose from-such men as G. W.
B. Allison, Judge Berkshire, Judge Harri.
don, Judge James H. Brown, and others
well known to the bar throughout the
State. Such nominees would command
attention and respect from the lawyers Of
the State, without respect to party, for
the bar are really anxious TO secure a
bench that theyican loOk Up to'instead Of
one that they must needs look down up
on.
We therefore appeal to our Republican
friends throughout the State TO be wise
IN this juncture Of affairs, and not be
led into .indiscreet nominations for the
Court OF Appeals. II we must make any
mistakes in any Of our nominations, we
trust it will not be in the men we select
for this important and responsible po-
sition $780,. - - y
