REGGTNG PARDON.

We beg pardon of the Free Press
for emitting notice of it's suggestion
that Judge Faulkner should now be
promoted to the Supreme Bench.
We presume that personally Judge
Faulkner could get the unanimous
commentator of the Berkeley Bar
as to his ability ard fitness for the
position, but when you take his large
and extensive practice into consid-
Grafton, and compare it with the
small pay Of either judges of Circuit
or Supreme Courts, you will see at
once that there is no probability OF
his continuing in positions of that
kind. OF course, some one will have
to take the honor and the small pay,
and if INDUCING in outside business,
that would be very nice, and posi-
bly not so tedious as actual every
day work. Judge Faulkner has prov
en- himself to be an excellent and i'm
partial Judge, and that is, with some
experience in these matters, saying
a good deal.

4 KICK BACKWARD

But can't the INDEPENDENT revert
TO the fact that when Mr.. Faulkner,
now Senator, was candidate forthe
judgeship, its editor, Mr.. Wisner,
was his competitor and did his level
best to defeat him? Jefferson, by a
generous majority, brought Mr..
Faulkner safely through : Free Press
Yes, yes, that was the time we
tried to beat two candidates for
Judge, and came very near doing it,
and we have no doubt Senator Faux
ner appreciates your gushing gen.
erosity, and will now admire your
uublushing modesty in rubbing it on
him.

Senator Faulkner has declined TO
permit the use of his name as a dele

after all, it is.possibly best, that con
