To the Editor Of the EVENING 5OuRNAL.
SIR: Referring to letter from Laurel

NAL, ia which my name is mentioned for
the judgeship, | would ask space in your
columns to say, that with all due respect
TO the writer Of that communion lion and
with GHe appreciation of his kindly
feeling toward ms, | AM Ia no sense an
applicant or Sa aspirant for the position
/ am conscious that am neither By age
nor experience fitted for that responsible
and eXacting Office. and would think it
highly presumptiOus for one Of my
limited experience in the practice Of the
law, extending through but six years, to
seek a position the duties Of which imply
such thorough and practical knowledge
Of the law as that of associate judge OF
tina Courts Of Delaware.
Nor am I persuaded to believe that
| necessity requires that an incompetent
should be appointed and paid salary
for services which he could not render.
We have two gentlemen of the Sussex
bar amply qualified, both by age and ex.
perienoe, TO GIL the position, with credit
10 themselves and to the state, between
whom public sentiment in Sussex county
and the state Is practically divided. | ara
positively and in every sense in favor Of
the appointment eff Charles NJ Cullen,
Esq, and in no contingency would J..
after volunteering my support TO him,
permit the seriOgs Jse of my name IL
the connection above referred 20, and it
is 10 prevent tho charge Of duplicity
toward my friend, Mr. Cullen, that
prompts me- to write the foregoing.

ONE Of the papers OF the breezy West
has discovered or invented the story that
woman's suffrage was perpetrated on
Wyoming, when territory, twenty
years ago as joke. The bill was passed
by the legislators under the impression
that the Governor would veto 1t. But
that Is whore they made mistake FOR
tbs Governor signed the bill, and then
vetoed repeating Gct passed by the sue
seeding Legislature. The story is no.
improbable because the average legis-
lator is fragrant joker. At least that
is the most charitable construction to put
en- their attempts TO regulate the private
and pablic affairs Of the people and to
sdorn the-present, past and future Of
tho universe with the legislative coneep-
ton Of eiysium. The acts Of any Legis.
lature are always mines of raw material
for humor and satire. This discovery
that Wyoming has womans suffrage as
joke, and continues It as y disgrace 10
ths good womea who stay away from
the polls and as means OF furnishing
dress, jswelry and pocket Money to those
not SO good is foed for reflection for suf-
frage cranks. II is very common for girl
under twenty one to vote, no man daring
to challenge them. To Go 50 would cub.
jsct him 70 ridlsule. and very likely TO-
suit in his being driven from tho COM
munisy. II Is the theory TINT woman I
suffrage should parify the ballot,
and Il might, perhaps, IL only
pure elemonts wero introduced.
But unfortunately thore arc elements
even among the women which are not
pure. 80 that the proportions Of good
and bad at the polls among the women In
Wyoming are less favorable to the pro-
motion Of pure government than
among men.
