A lawyer who lives in the dead past

Of antiquated volumes in search ct pre-

0s A Low PLAIN.

The Her@Ll-Dissen1inator is very
much exercised and worried because
the DEMOCRAT has had to get down on
so low a plane in this campaign. Well
we regret it from a very much more
candid motive than does our neighbor
but all our readers will bear us testi.
mony that we have been down on that
plane but once, and then we had TO get
down on it to answer very unjust and
malicious charge brought by thpt paper
against us to the effect that we were
''in favor Of the election Of the Demo
cratic ticket without regard to the
means used to accomplish it," Now
when we got down to that plane en-
which that paper was being conducted
to tell It's editor that this charge was
false, he complains about and regrets it.
When q witnsss in court had tostif ed
in such q way as TO show to all present
that he had sworn falsely, and was told
by the lawyer that one or the other cf
two statements must be false, be assum-
ed an air of injured innocence and COM
planned that trials in courts Of Justice
should be conducted on 80 low pIsin.
Our neighbor occupies the same unon-
viable attitude Of this witness in court.

The Democratic Convention placed
Judge J. ]. Shaw, Of Sllem,in nomina-
ton for judge Of the Third Judicial
District. Judge Saaw is too well
known as a scholarly genslem' ban up
right, useful cilizan and sn allie jurist,
to need any encomium at onr hands.
He was admitted to the bar 10 the state
of New York iu 1852, and after prac-
ticing his profession there few years
became imbued with that spirit Of ad.
venture which imPelled young men in
thosc days to follow the star Of empire
in Its westward conrse, and started for
the west. Judge Shaw is an old pi6n-
eer in this country and settled in Salem
more than twenty years ago, where he
has lived continuously with his family
ever since, highly respected and highly
honored in the community.
Judge Shaw, notwithstanding the
fact that be has always been a staunch
Democrat, was elected County Judge
Of Marion county in 1873, when that
county had Republican msj,rity .cf
over 500. What better endoraemsnt
could the people ssk than that ? Of his
competitor we have nothing to say that
Is unkind. But IL such positions there
should be change once 10 a while, and
no better man could have been named
than Judge Shaw to wear the judicial
ermine for the next term.
