THE VACANT VIRGINIA JUDO
SHID

The long vacant United States Judgship
of the western district of Virginia. seems
to be now the topmost of political topics
in Washington in which Virginia is in
terested AS all the management of the
political affairs Of this once self governing
old common wealth. is now done at the
National Capital, we have to look, as In
the old military government times OF re
construction, to Washingt corlespon-
dents and journals for the news of what
is to be committed and what omitted in our
politics. In reference to the coming oc-
cupant Of Judge Rives' place, the Wash
ington correspondent Of vhe N. Y. Herald
says:
When Judge Rives was about to resign
last May he concurred in the opinion of
several friends chat General Mosby would
be fit nan to succeed him. But it was
learned that General Mosby did not want
the position Then it was agreed that Con-
gresham John Paul, the Readjuster
member from the Seventh Virginia dis
trct should be made judge in the event II
being defeated for reelection. Ju!gr
Hughes held the sessions Of court, but II
happened THAT MT. Eaul was Ae-Fico'o"'
though by very slim majority. 1t IS un.
derstood that Mr.. Paul can be nominated
for The judgeslip should Senator Malone
urge It. But as his acceptance of the
judgeship would create a congressional va
cancy and a new election might result in
a Democratic success n. the matter has
not been fully settled. Mosby doesn /
want the place; Paul can get it. but he
hesitates to accept. He is fit for the
place, and would make a conscientious
judge.
Tending to confirm one statement in
the above is the following extract from an
editorial in the Lynchburg Virginian of
Tuesday
A friend writes us that he has informar
ton deemed perfectly reliable, to the
effect that the President will confer the
now vacant judgeshi2 in this District upon
John Paul.
