by him.
The supreme Court has been mcrciessly denounced
by the Peoples party newspapers for interfering with
Judge Mckay, and the Alliance has determined TO
make a hero of him. His course has been indorsed
by every subAlanse in his district and he Is being
groOmed for the supreme Court bench. The lawyers
