THE SUPREME JUDGEsHIP.

EDITOR Observation-Disclosures
der Martin, Esq, of st. Louis, one Of
the commissioners appointed to aid the
supreme court of this state in the adju-
dicatlon OF cases before that tribunal, is
a candidate for the exalted position OF
supreme Judge of Missouri
AS a lawyer, Mr.. Martin, a native of
Mississippi and educated in the hest law
schools of the United States, has held,
although yet in the vigor OF mature
manhood, for years a leading position
at the very able bar of St. Louis, of
which he is nov a member. His indus
try and devotion 10 duty are excep.
%tional, and his private and profess
sional life are alike spotless. His mind
is peculiarly of the judicial type, as is
attested by his authorship of many
articles in the leading law journals of
this country which was deemed of such
credit as to have been copied in similar
publications abroad, taking rank with
those OF Cooley, Dillon, and others of
our noted American legal publicists.
The great city of st. Louis with its half
million population and bar of great
learning and ability is without repre-
sentation in our highest state tribunal,
and now presents to the people of Mis-
souri, its only choice for the supreme
judgeship in the person of its ablest and
purest member, Alexander Martin.
He should have the nomination of the
democratic party to which he has
always held close obligation.

THE SUPREME JUDGESHIP.

EDITOR INTELLIGENCER:-I had pnr-
posed to call the attention of the people
of Lafayette more fully to the import
ance of the approaching primary than
is now possible since the time for the
same has been set for July 10th. 1t is
time that our people should become
aroused to the Importance, of placing
On the supreme bench lawyers who
have had no connection with railroads.
In the past the railroads and their
attorneys have almost controlled the
nomination of our supreme judges. If
the democratic party is to control the
state two years hence, nay if it deserves
to control the state, it is bound to
make the issue sharp and pointed, that
this is a government of the people and
that the next Legislature shall pass laws
regulating and controlling the railroads,
and carrying u N wise constitu-
tional provisions. The convention at
st. Louis should pass an anti-monopoly
platform, and nominate good and true
men, the friends of the people, and no
man should be sent as a delegate who
is not pledged to these rules.
Judge Ryland and Mr.. Field of course
have no opposition in this county. AS
to supreme judge | do not hesitate to
say from a personal knowledge OF
Alex. Martin that in all respects he is
the best man now named. From boy
hood almost until the time OF his death,
he was the partner and trusted friend
of Judge. Lakeland, who for sterling
integrity, sound Judgment, a true man
never had a superior in this state and
| do not believe that MIR. Martin ever
had any connection with railroads; and
yet the delegates should not be hamper
ed SO that they cannot make the most
thorough investigation as to Mr.. Mar
tins fitness. For | record that OIL q
certain occasion the delegates from
this county were assured that a certain
man was all right; subsequent event.
proved he was all wrong.

A CARD.

EDITOR lNTELLIG me
through the columns of your paper to
express my sincere thanks to the many
friends of the western district of La
fayette for the support received on
the 9TH of June. Having never been
before the people before, as | am al
most a stranger TO the most OF the peO-
pie, all l "a say is that I'm for the
nominees. l am Il little late with my
card. l had to have the boat taken care
of and discharge all of my deckhands.
A few words in regard to a letter that
was published the day before the cleo
ton that was written by Judge Lock
hart a few months before. | understand
that there was a great many people that
laid that on me.
l will say to the public l did not do
it. neither did 1 have it done, nor did |
know there was such a letter. | hope
the people will inquire and satisfy
themselves that l am correct in my
statement. Very respectfully,
W. +. PURCELL.

TO THE TEACHERS.

We have perfected arrangements with
President Osborn, of the Warrensburg
Normal; President Bianton, OF the
Kirksville Normal, and State Superin-
tendent Coleman to give lectures on
subjects pertaining to the teachers
work.
A programme WILDE published giving
a complete outline of the terms work,
each day having its allotted work.
Teachers should be present at the OPEN
ing SO that no link in the normal chain
will be lost.
In our outlines we aim to give the
teachers just what they most need, and
confidently expect every teacher in La
layette county to take advantage of the
county normal. 1t is our duty and
should be our pleasure to accept every
opportunity for improvement. We owe
this to u profession, to ourselves and
to the children over whom we preside.
The times demand growing teachers,
earnest, energetic-those who carefully
study the nature of child mind, and the
true object of education. We know of
no better way of meeting this demand
than through our normal work. The
influence tor good of the true teachers
work is felt in every department of
life; and while the remuneration is not
so large as in some other professions, it
is 10 less the grandest of all professions.
He who is capable of developing the
girl or boy into true womanhood or
manhood is capable of moulding the
destiny of nations. 1t is important
therefore that we a. teachers render
ourselves efficient in the profession we
have chosen. 1t has been truly said
that education is a better safe guard Of
liberty than a standing army, and the
teacher who realizes the fact can but
feel a necessity of a thoughtful consid-
Grafton of his work.
Teachers, you cannot afford to miss
our normal work. Those who will at
tend must bring their text books with
them. We expect to have a rousing
meeting, and a month of good work,
but the results will depend largely upon
the working interest you shall take in
it. Let us have a large and arnest at
tendance and make the school year of
1867 in Lafayette county the best in
its history. Let us make our county
the banner county for efficient teach
ers.
we would say further that DIR.
Quarles, who expects to leave our ranks,
much to our regret, will be with us
part of the time. Every teacher
should come and hear, for the last time
probably, the advice of this veteran
teacher.
Remember next Tuesday morning,
July 6, is the first day of the normal.
Those wishing to attend should come
Monday to select boarding places, &c.
For further particulars, address,

THE CIRCUIT JUDGEsHlP.

We can scarcely conceive how the
other candidates for circuit judge could
have paid a greater compliment to Mr..
Fields strength before the people than
they did by the action had at the meet
ing of the executive committee at Sc
dalia, last Wednesday. 1t was perfect
ly evident that if the question was sub
mitted to the voice of the democratic
voters at the bsllot-bo x Mr.. Field
would, on July II next, be the nominee
Of the democratic party OF the circuit.
Pcttis county at least acted consistent
ly, for it claimed from the beginning
that a convention was the best mode OF
arriving at the result. But what shall
be said of Saline county, which in the
first meeting of the committee was
quite as anxious as was Lafayette to
have the democratic voters of the cir
cult express themselves directly upon
the question?
A change seems to have come over
the spirit of its dream since its COM
mitteeman and its newspapers SO elo-
quently defended the primary election
But why? Was there fear that unaided
by convention methods and by the
plea for territorial division, which
should cut no figure in a judicial nom.
%ination, Mr.. Field would be nominated?
1t will be hard to explain the action
upon any other hypothesis.
What say you, democrats of Saline
and Pettis counties; were you not as
competent to decide this question, di.
rectly, as will be your representatives,
the delegates IN convention? The ex-
pense of it? MI. Fields friends offered
to bear it all. 1t should have been but
a tritie in any event. Greater troubleP
In what? In that there would be more
democrats at the polls; more demo-
cratic votes? Since when was it moi
desirable to select our candidates BY
the largest popular expression?
We have no fears for our candidate
He is strong with the people in Saline
and Pettis counties. AT home his sup
port will be practically unanimous. Tt
his friends in Saline and Pettis we say
stand by your flag, do not be dis
couraged; make a good fight for frs
choice if possible, for second chOic.
where first cannot be secured, and thu
man who would most undOubtedl,
have been nominated by the primar,
election will still be successful in con
vention.

The Sedalia Democrat seems to think,
from the extract below, that Judge
Lacy has forfeited his chances for cleo
ton as circuit judge. 1t says in its
issue of yesterday:-"The action OF
the Democratic central committee in
regard to the nomination of a candl
date for circuit judge is c~ommendable
and fair, fortunate in every respect,
except for one much interested in the
change consummated. That one is
Judge John A. Lacy. He may presume
it was done to favor his candida cy, but
he destroyed every semblance of favor
the change may imply by p~refacing ii
with a speech before a convention
in this city held the day before
the meeting of the committee.
There he stated as a candidate for a
public Office, vested with the full pow
ers and force of the law, that those
powers could not be exercised without
the help of the secret organization he
addressed. The people do not believe
in that sort of rot. They have great
confidence in their own ability to ru1
the thing without secrecy, and open
and above board"
