THE JUDoESHIP.

[Wo0dson County Pose, Oct. slst
Among the many offices for which the
sufftagss of the people Of this county will
be cast next Tuesday is Judge Of this,
the seventh, judicial district. The only
candidates for the position are the pres.
ent incumbent, the Hon. H. w. Talcott,
and L. w. KepIinger, ESD, of Humboldt.
Both are we'll known to the majority OF
the county, the former having served
upon the bench with eminent distinction
and satisfaction for the last five years,
and the latter having for even a longer
period been a frequent attendant Of the
courts of the county. The Post unhesi.
tatingly expresses its preference in favor
Of continuing the former in the position
which he has filled SO creditably during
the period of his services in that capac-
ity. While according to Mr.. Keplinger
an unblemished character As q man and
q citizen and an enviable reputation rs
an attorney, we know Of no point of
fitness for the position named which he
possesses in degree superior to his conf
petitor. He is, to say the least, an un.
tried man SO far Is many Of the qualifi-
tications for the bench are concerned. 1t
is certainly to be supposed that five years
Of training for special position, other
things being equal, would give one
decided advantage over the other in the
discharge OF It's duties. During the FIVE
years of his service Judge Tslcott has,
besides personal integrity and legal
knowledge, given evidence Of a peculiar
fitness for the place; keen, analyt-
ical turn of mind, ready insight into
the motives and characters of men and =
quick apprehension OF the knotty points
of controversy. OF his decisions taken
to the higher courts, we think a. small a
proportion have been reversed as those of
any district judge in the state We
know of no good reason why after having
been tried and found 80 thoroughly com
petent he should be now displaced in
favor of a new man. Such course
would seem t. imply that faithful, COM
petent men are not wanted in that posi-.
ton. Especially would this seem true
since it has been the almost universal
practice to honor faithful officer with
at least a second term.

ALETTER FROM Mr.. TnDEN.-A large meeting
was held In Ptttsburg last night by the T1lden
Club Hon. James II. Hopkins spoke, denounc-
Ing federal frauds, advocating free elections,
ano lndOrS1ng Mr.. T1lden. The following letter
from Mr.. T1lden was read:
ITO the Lecture Committee of the Iron City Tylden
Club, Pittsburg, Pa: Please communicate to
your club my thanks for their Invitation to at
tend the lecture of Mr.. Hopkins, though my
engagements render ii impossible TO be present.
In 1876 The democracy achieved victory in the
name and for the sake OF a reform OF adminis-
tration which would restore the government in
spirit and substance, as Wen as In form, to the
benign character 10 which it was created by our
patriotic ancestors. They were defrauded OF
tne fruits OF that victory by false count of the
electoral votes. That wrong casts upon this
generation the responsibility of far greater
question. The great duty is to vindicate the
right OF the people to elective self-governmeut.
II the subversion OF the elective system proves
successful and prosperous, those who are In
power will count themselves In at every cleo.
ton, and prolong their dominion indefinitely.
Such question ought to be Invested of every
personal aspect. The wrong TO individuals be.
comes insignificant in comparison with the
crime against the people, against free govern
meht, and all the best hopes OF mankind"
