IT has come to this: That in order to get
good candidates for Judges pressure must be
used from outside Of each ward and town. The
Convention must take matters In its own bands.
The North and West Sides must force the South
Side to put up its best candidate; the West and
South Sides must return the fayor to the North;
and the North and South to the West This is
not an individual matter. Neither courtesy nor
any other consideration whutever should in
duce the Convention to give the selection Of
the Judges to caucuses Of the divisions held sep
arately. 1t is matter that concerns the vel
fare Of the whole party. Let the judicial candi-
dates be nominated first. and let only the best
unbt be selected. The candidates for other
Offices should see to 1t TINT this is done.
