WHY MAYNARD IS OPPOSED.

II Is a mistake to suppose that the
opposition to Judge Maynard comes
solely or evenly mainly from lawyers.
The leading members OF the Bar nat
urally feel keenly the improperly or
advancing to the highest court OF the
State a lawyer whom they believe TO
have committed an act which they re-
gard as absolutely OF u criminal charac-
ter. But IN, main objections To the
candidate are that he Is INIT for the
position: that when he came before the
people Of the State for an elective
office Oh IA former occasion he was
repudiated by the party while all his
associates on the ticket were elected:
tina he could not have been nominated
by a Convention faithfully representing
the Democrats OF the State. that his
nomination was prearrangei and forced
by a few dictatorial eaders. and that
Il would be disS. aceful n damaging
10 the party to reward a questionable
political service. such as would only be
asked or expected OF II partisan with
no nice scIuples of conscience. with a
Judgeship In the highest court In the
State.
lbuShIlus u tNtIilhk "No

and workers for a lifetime in the party
ranks. oppose Judge Maynard for these
reasons. They 40 more regard II rs
treason to Democracy to defeat Judge
Maynard for Judge OF the Court OF Ap'
peals in 1893 and to elect the rest OF ths
Democratic ticket than It was treason
to Democracy to defeat Isaac II. May

to elect all OF his associate nominees.
The situation Is, therefore, a u]cSu.idi
one. Democrats feel themselves free L

honorable obligation to support the res
OF the candidates. Indeed. they reIarC
II as a duty to defeat Judge Maynar,
