RIVER FALLS WISCONSIN, FEBRUARY 1873 sAer
THE CIRCUIT JUDGEsHIP.

When, year ago, Judge Humphrey,
having been elected to Congress, re-
signed and thereby necessitated the
election of a successor to complete the
unexpired term, the JOURNAL, for rea.
sons then stated, favored the election
of III. E. Houghton, of Durand. How.
ever, the present incumbent, E. b.
Bundy, of Menomome, was elected.
and the JOURNAL has watched his of
fetal actions with some interest. JUS
tice prompts us to say, at this time,
that Judge Bundy has, by his strict
attention to business, his uniform
courtesy to those who have dealings
with him, his dignified manner of
presiding at court, and his prompt
and satisfactory rulings and decisions.
earned for himself the friendship and
esteem of the people of this judicial
district and now, as the time is APP
preaching for the election of a circuit
Judge to serve the full term, it seems
but just and proper that he be re-nom-
mated and reelected.
1t is understood that Eau Claire, now
part of this district, will nominate
a candidate against Judge Bundy; we
hope the rumor is not well founded,
but if it is, we counsel our Eau Claire
friends to reconsider their determi-
nation and give Judge Bundy that
unanimous endorsement at the polls
which his official conduct so well de-
serves.

Chisholm, in Kemper county, Missis-
sippi, was a farce, the prisoners being
acquitted on a FIVE minutes consulta-
ton of the jury. This is in keeping
with the former acts and the reputa-
ton of that barbarous and intolerant
element which holds undisputed sway
i'll that locality.
