On Monday last Judge Smart vacated
the Office of county judge and his place
was taken by Judge Schmidt. MIR.
Smart leaves the Office in excellent shape
and deserves the gratitude of the people
whom he has served SO well in the most
important Office in their gift, for there is
no other in which they have SO direct or
vital an interest. Being a layman it was,
of course, expected he would find it diff
ficult to unravel Intricate questions of
law aud there are many such connected
with the duties of this Office. But his
good sense and industry stood him in
good stead and his administration has
been all that could be desired.
The Pilot was not favorable to the
nomination of Judge Schmidt. Still it
recognizes that he has the ability to make
II good Judge and he certainly has full
appreciation of the Importance of the du-
ties now devolving upon him. He has
il the past been attentive to his officia!
duties and o man can most safely be
judged by his past. The new Judge may
expect the fairest treatment at the hands
of the public and that courtesy due his
position. He may also have the further
assurance that every one is satisfied he
has the ability to maintain the Office up
to the high standard in which it was
placed by Judge Kirwan and to which it
was kept by Judge Smart.

That was the text. He then demanded
