A GOOD JUDGE.

We are grstifed - find that our own
estimate of the character OF Judge j. Nj.
JACKSON, of Psrkersburg, is held by the
people of his own district without regard
to party. The Richie Gazette, a Repub-
licsn paper, has this to say OF him:
Hon. j. Nj. Jackson, of this circuit, Is
one of the best Judges in West Virginia.
He is au excellent lawyer, and his knowl-
edge is, of course, of great benefit to him
IN his position. But in addition to this,
he has the essential characteristics re-
quired to acquit himself with honor. be
is careful in making up his decisions and
decidedly firm in sdherlng to what he
considers correct opinion. However, the
best thing we can say of him, Is that he
is perfectly impartial. His absorbing
desire is evidently to DO justice to all.
This Is the great essential, without which
as an element of his character, no man
can successfully ill any such place. In
addition to this, Judge jackson is ready,
gentlemanly in his manners, and treats
all the members of the bar with the same
respect. He is able enough to deserve y
place OH the Supreme bench, and we
hope he may get it at the next judicial
election.
