THE SUPREME JUDGESHIP.
OF NEW YORK.

The Eureka Leader is warm supporter OF
Gen. G. NJ. Sabin as candidate for the
Supreme Judgeship. It's only objection to
Judge Beatty lies in the fact that he has been
sixteen years an Office holder in Nevada.
Now according to our way of thinking, one
who has been sixteen years on the Distric,
and Supreme Bench. is what might be c,lled
stried man. In all that sixteen years there
has been no stain upon his record of any
sort, and he has never allowed himself to be
in the slightest degree Influenced, either
through fear or favor of the railroad corpora
tions. During the sixteen years of his service
FOR the State, the Office has sought the man :;
and his advancement was due to the fact that
he was competent and honest. The Leader
takes pains to assert that Gen. Sabin is not
under railroad influences. In 1873, there
we're good many men in the L 'gslature who
we're vouched for as not under railroad influ-
encer, but when it came to the test, they
vent down before the railroad sack, like grass
before the scythe. We know nothing against
the character and integrity of Gen. Sabn,
aud have never even heard of his honor be-
ing Questioned; yet the fact of his being so
strongly endorsed by a railroad newspaper
looks suspicious. The corporations which
seek to rule or ruin politics in Nevada, have
sent forth the fat that Beatty must be de.
feated in the convention because he is anti
railroad. Now does it seem probable that
they would labor to unseat him simply to put
another anti railroad man in his plscel As
sembyman Fisk, who refused to do the bid
ding Of the railroads in the last Legislature,
was at that time one Of the proprsors Of the
and Palisads R. R., drove him from bust
ness in Eureka. His SUCCESSORS are railroad |
supporters, and also supporters of Gen. Sa-
bin. Now Can any III IA deny that Tor an anti
railroad man, Sabn is in QUESTION: BILE COM
pany. The State Journal has the following:
The Eureka Sentji.sI, attempting to make
point for Col SabIn, intimates that White
Pine Is for Sabin, and because of this fac.
again intmates that Judge Beatty will
not allow his name to 20 before the Conven-
lion. When Judge Beatty was frat elected
he hailed from White Pine, and when man
. y candidate for denomination politicians as
'ume that he must have the delegation from
MS old place, or that he is no longer an avail
Ible candidate. SIX years is a long period,
md In that time many changes take place,
md local influence may have an eff CT in pre-
enting an endorsement of a former resident.
a this case Judge B .atty is not the property
1 White Pine or any other county, but more
properly belongs to the State and the R.pub
can parry. He has made aa excellent Judge,
} man in whom the people of the State
ave entire confidence, one whose nomination
'onid add Strength to the ticket and in the g
resent condition of affairs deserves to be re- f
ominsted and elected, and representatives, of
be party in convention assembled, at Carson.
august llth, mnst not commit the mistake of
splacing him by some new and untried man.
Does any one suppose that the Eureka Sen

eatty if the editor did not believe that he "
