The Vacant Judgeship A Rush for the
Position.
SAN FRANCIsCO, July 12th-The cat will
print the following in the morning The
commitment of Superior Judge Clough TO
the insane asylum has been the means of
intensifying the fierce contest for public OF
flee that is CONFUSING the local Democracy
The same terryb0at that carried the insane
Judge across the bay on his journey to the
asylum took delegation OF his Woud-be
successors ON their road to Sacramento.
Another imposing delegation set out
from this city to-day to storm
the Executive Mansion and overbear all
morrow a still larger deputation will pro-
ceed post haste on the same mission to the
capital. 1t is expected that for the next
fortnight Governor StOneman will have q
mild taste OF the tOrtures OF importantly
that the haplcss Collector of Internal
Revenue in San Francisco has. been
undergoing for q week past. In Dem
ocratic circles the prominent candi-
dates for Judge Cloughs place are be-
lieved to be Judge Theodore Brakeman
and Walter Levy. William T. Baggett is
also prominently mentioned lOf the DenCH, /
but as Governor 5toneman has established !
for himself the reputation of being even |
more unlathoinable than the President, the |
appearance of dark morse among the legal /
aspirants is deemed possible. Judge !
Brakeman was a candidate for the judge |
ship on the Democratic ticket at the last !
election, He is comparatively new man /!
in San Francisco politics, but is recognized |
as q prominent representative Of the South /
ern Democracy. Leyy's record is well |
known, he having been prominently !
before the public for years. Baggett is also |.
not stranger Judge Terry, it is said. is
favorable to Levy's candidacy, and Judge |
Brakeman is believed to rely 10 some ex- |
pert on the good offices Of Lloyd Teyis and |!
his immediate circle of political friends /
1t is believed that grave Complications may
arise through the insanity of Judge Clough !
Several prominent lawyers express the I.
opinion that very many, if not ALL of his !
decisions for months past may be upset, /
ami the parties to all cases so affected be /
involved in interminable litigation and !
annoyance before a readiustment of them |
can be reached.
