THE JUDGESHIP.

Last week the HERALD took &C.
casion to lay its position on the
District judgeship before its readers
very plainly and candidly, stating
its reasons for supporting Judge L.
L. Baxter, and lis gratifying to
know that its views are very gener-
ally conceded with by its readers.
In its efforts to elevate the bench
above the plane Of party politics, it
meets general approval showing
clearly that the people have we'll
defined ideas on this important sub
ject. Judge Baxter stands merely
rs representative of the principal
that satisfactory judge ought not
to be removed for mere political con.
sideration what his personal predi-
lections may be of the bench are of
no interest to the voters, so long as
they do not influence his action on
the bench. No one has yet intimat-
ed that Judge Baxter has shown the
slightest bias while 81 tting in court,
and from his official conduct no one
could possible infer that he had any
political views whatever.
An able, fair and conscientious
Judge has nothing to do with parts
anship, whether political or social.
He knows no friends and has no
enemies, to influence his rulings or
decisions.
Such the HERALD firmly believes
Judge Baxter to be. 1t therefore
makes no difference in this CAM
paign as to who will oppose him at
the polls. The Republican ps rty can
certainly stand on the same plane
with the democrats on this question.
They declined to name candidates
for the supreme benslI-We had no
occasion to name any for the bench
in this district.
In vindication of this principle let
US stand together as unit for the
present incumbent and give Judge
Baxter a solid vote.

Analysing the Baking Powders.

Under the direction of the New York State
Board of Health, eighty. four different kinds
of baking powders, embracing all the brands
that could be found for sale in the State.

The Official report shows That large mum.

contain alum or lime; many of them to
SUCH an extent as to render them seriously
Objectionable for use In the preparation Of

This drug Is employed in baking powders to
cheaper their cost. The presence of lime is
attributed to the impure cream of tartar Of
commerce used in their manufacture. Such
cream OF tartar was also analysed. and found
to contain lime and other impurities; in
some samples to the extent Of 90 per cent Of
their entire weight.
All the baking powders of the market,
with the single exception of "Royal" (not In
Guiding the alum and phosphate powders,
which were long since discarded as unsafe or
inefficient by prudent housekeepers) are
made from the impure cream Of tartar Of
commerce, and consequently contain lime
to q corresponding extent.
The only baking powder yet found by
chemical analysis to be entirely free from
lime and absolutely pure Is the Royal"
This perfect purity results from the excius-

and prepared by patent processes which
totally remove the tartrats Of lime and
other impurities. The cost Of this chemical.

any other, and on account Of this greater

There seems to be wonderful
unanimity in the canyess relative
to the matter of the District Judge
ship. The principle that good
judge should be his own successor so
long as he remains good has taken a
strong hold upon this community.
The vote for Judge Baxter will be
practically unanim ous-all voting for
him regardless of party-in fact
without the partisan idea once being
considered. And that is the way to
teach the politicians to keep their
hands off the bench.

Mr.. Halvorson most emphatically
denies any prejudice against Sank
Centres interest,saying that he will,
il elected work just as faithfully for
any measure designed to benefit
this village as though it were his
own town. He is the representative
Of the whole district, and the inter-
est of any portion of it will demand
and receive his energetic support.
He says there are men in the dis.
trict whom he would prefer to see in
the legislature to himself, so far as
he is personally concerned, but to
the best of his ability he will serve
his entire constituency without local
favor or prejudice.

THE PROOF.

1t has been said by the few that if
elected this village could expect moth
from the efforts of Kettel Halvorson,
as he is and always has been unfriend-
ly to our interests. Let us see about
that. A mans record may be fairly
taken as an evidence of his DISPOSE
ton. No one will for a moment de.
ny that his influence is and has been
potent in the towns of Crow Lake,
Crow River and North Fork. he being
an acknowledged leader of public
opinion in those southwestern towns.
In 1850 Hon. Alexander Moore, than
whom Sank Centre has not, never
had, and never cares to have a more
earnest and devoted advocate and
friend, was candidate for the legis.
lature, against F. W. Lenx and the
official returns from those towns were

At the County Alliance meeting
on Saturday last Mr.. j. r. Getchell
seemed to be possessed of the one
idea of securing the endorsement Of
Anes for governor. The alliance
most peremptorily refused, and dele
gate Getchell had not sufficient tact
to conceal hissdisappointment. His
argument was confined to the one
idea that three republicans and only
two democrats were endorsed by the
alliance. and in justice one more
democrat should be, thrown in to
balance the scales. Failing in this
he accused the alliance of being
run in the interest of the Republi.
can party.
