Forty six members of the bar of the
Seventh judicial district across the rivel
met 10 non-partisan convention at Daven.
port yesterday, the counties of Museatine,
Scott, Clinton and jackson, which comp
rise the district, being represented
On motion the convention recommend
ed three persons to all the political
parties and to the people of the district,
as suitable candidates for election as
judges.
The committee on resolutions reported
the following, which were unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, A precedent has obtained
for many years in this Judicial district,
with rare exceptions, to appoint and
elect Judges without regard to their polls
lical affiliations; and
WHEREAS, A non PARTISAN bench is
best adapted to promote purity and iu>
dependence IN the administration Of ju-
dical affairs
Therefore be it
RsS0lr6d, That we, members of the bar
of the Seventh Judicial district of Iowa,
recommend that the precedent of mons
partisan nominations be continued, and
TO that end we suggest that the pgrn,,,if. il 4
their conventions make -, ils,,in1tions for
Jndlcial position ,! retrospective of The party
a'i,,!a'iohS ii the candidates, and
..1'PE0 hereby recommend as competent
and proper persons for judges of this dis
trirt:
William :. Braunan, of Muscatine
county.
John N. Rogers, of Scott county
A. J. Leffingwell, of Clinton county.
And respectfully ask an endorsement
of our action By the people and all par
ties
The democrats across the river have
however, called convention, and it if
probable that they will nominate q
straightOut ticket.
