The Circuit Judgeship, Some
months ago We suggested the name of
Judge Park for reelection to the posi-
ito" of Circuit Judge, for the 9TH iu-
dicial circuit. We did not know at
the time whether or not Mr.. Park as
PRED to a reelection. We have always
believed that the Judiciary should
be exempt from all political entangle-
mens, and judges should be chosen be-
cause OF their capabllity for the posi-
ton, Therefore We suggested the
denomination of Mr.. Park. than
whom, re believe few legal gentlemen
IN the circuit are better qualified than
he to perform the functions of that
office. Mr.. Park is before the people.
His past official record is open. to
the scrutiny of the voters of the cir
cult, and We believe it to be such that
shsy will give him an unqualified in
GoEsenent next Tuesday.
