~We do not propose to volunteer
as champion for Mr.. MAuR1, We hase
the same interest in him that any other
citizen OF the county has, and no more
-lf.anybody wants TO vote against Mr.
MAuRY for valid reasons We will not try
to dissuade him. II any ybody's feet are
itching for Mr. MAuRr's shoes we will
not scratch them II anybody seeks to
pander to a supposed prejudice, and fire
on MIR. MAURY from behind the safe

further concern with II than to prevent.
as far as We may, gross Inj,stice
Whether Mr.. MAuRY is as great a con-
atitutional lawyer as his critics is wholly
irrelevant If Mr. MAuRY believes
even ignorantly helieves-a bill to be
unconstitutional it is his duty to vote
against it, no matter who regards such
bill as constitutional. Mr.. MAURY Is not
sworn to support the constitution as his
critics understand It, or as anybody else
understands it except himself. His own
conscience should be bis guide. even il
he did not know Constitution from q
comic almanac.
The Constitution expressly prohibits
the Legislature from reducing the salary
Of any officer during the term current at
the passage Of the bill. This bill did
precisely that very thing, az we are in
formed, for we have not seen the bill
itself.
We 10 not expect anything we can say
to il durnce those who seek to push
themselves into Mr.. MAuRr's place, or
those who for other selfish purposes
choose to malign him. But to men who
have no other motives than sense of
justice, we say judge him as fairly mot
to say cAaritably) as You have judged
Others In the same position, and then
whether you vote for him or against him
we will be entirely content
