..al,t.p CENSORSHIP. y..u. 4.
There Is tt very general expression OF re.
Gret ut the prospect Of losing Judge Hay.
lnond among the State officials aud members
Of tue bar who practice in the Supreme
Court OF Appeals. The reason which, led to
the step is said TO be that the salary, 50 900
per annun,, Is far from commensurate with
the labor Of Judge, md that much less ar.
d'lous work rs Il practicing attorney would
command q considerably better income. Some
OF Judge Haymon1's friends bAye spoken OF
him IN count ction with the svccessorship to
Henry G. Davis as United States Senator,
but whether he would consent to the usc OF
big name as candidate is regarded as doubt.
full. N - -
a movement Is on foot among the bar OF
Ohio county to present the name Of X. G.
Barr. as candidate for The position vacated
by Judge Raymond. A petition Is being
sent around for signatures, requesting the
Governor to appoint Mr. Harr. II was very
generally signed by these to whom it was pre-.
scented yesterday. I'D. r... ..sl..,
A move is also on foot among the friends
OF ex-Attorney General White 10 present bis
tame to the Governor with formidable back.
ing. A petition in the interests OF this plsn
was circulated laS. evening. ~.
