To the Editor Of the Press:
was much surprised the other day to find
the following paragraph from the Boston
Herald copied into the Advertiser, which pro-
fesses to be an independent paper, without
comment. AS the Boston Journal says, "Ralf
told facts are as misleading sometimes as false
hoods" Please give place to the following
with the comments of the Boston Journal, and
oblige at least one If not many Of your resders:
T..
The Republican papers Of Maine, so far as we
know, without exception approve the nomination IF

years ago Greenback Governor nominated The
sau Demo rat to fill o vacancy on the bench and
the same papers, or most of them, denounced him
In the btteresL terms for bis act and the Council
refused to confirm the nomination.-Herald.
The Greenback Governor sought to punish
an able and fearless Judge, who is Demo
crat, for declaring against the contingent
conspiracy of 1880 by refusing to reappoint
him. He therefore nominated Mr.. Put
nam without comforting with him. The
Republican press and the Republican Coun-
Gil at that time would have been glad
to have secured soch a man for the Judge
ship, but they would not do it in order to
crafty the contingent conspirators headed

1t may be that the Advertiser did not COM

transparent folly. We suspect it was intended
to print it in tie bunch of nonsensical

appointing judges, Governor Plaisteds action
was simply an attempted removal OF judge
