A Judge Who should BE Reelected.

Tho term Of Judge GARY. who presided
over the trial OF the Chicago Anarchists,
expires this year. Ho will be candidate
for reelection In tho fall. and he Is sure to
be renominated by the Republicans OF Cook
county. II the Cook county Democrats are
wise, tbay will put his namo pt the head OF

lectsd as his candidate for Judge GARY's
seat the lawyer with strong socialistlc
views" who prepared tho brief on which
Governor ALTGELDs attack on the courts
and Judge GARY was based" We do know
that II the Democratic party OF Illinois Is to
have any other future than wretched and
deserved defeat. 1t must condemn the alli-
ance between the Democratic Governor OF
Illinois and the dangerous and crazy
criminal element OF the population OF Chi
caro-. The Democrats OF Cook county can
not Nfford TO take o candidate for Judge
from the pardoner OF the Anarchists
Least OF all. can they afford to vote down
the upright and fearless Judge whom ALT
onLD has passionately assailed.
Tho stimulus to anarchy and to violence
given by AITaELD's bitter and hysterical
language and surprising action. must be
checked. 1t is the duty Of good Democrats
As good citizens to support Judge GARY.
His name should DO on the Democratic rs
we'll as on tho Republican ticket. Nine other
Judges are to be elected in Cook county
next fall. Let the Democrats elect all
the nine. II they can. but 1t will be better

Tho death OF Justice Blatchford. fore

msr cottage In Newport. L. l.. he passed
quietly and peacefully from earth. retaining
consciousness until an hour or two before his
death. approaching his graves
Like one that wraps the drapery of his couch
About him. and lies down TO pleasant dreams"
As a Judge his decisions were important, and
SO uniformly correct rs seldom to be reversed
on appeal to tho Supreme Court His opinions
In admiralty and patent causes were espe-
cially important. and no gave much attention
to extradtlon cases. the practice In which has
been largely fxod by his decisiona. In tie
last volume Of his reports an exhaustive opin-
ion In tho case OF George Fowler collects and
reviews many OF the mora important decisions
under the English extraditon laws But his
most famous decision was rendered while he
was o United States District Judge. Charles
A. Dana had exposed tho Washington ring.
whose head was Boss Shepherd. and the mem-
bsrs OF the ring undertook to punish the cd
itor. They brought criminal proceed
ings for libel In Washington and sought
to take Mr.. Dana to tho National capt.
tai. He was arrested In New York city
and upon habeas corpus proceedings, was
taken before the United States District Court.
The programme was to take Mr.. Dana to the
Washington Police Court, where. In those
days. things ended. A motion for the warrant
OF extrAdition had to be mado. however. before
Mr.. Dana could be taken out OF this State.
This m otion was argued before Judge Blatoh-
ford on July 10. 1873. The court room was
crowded. United States District Attorney
George Bliss. Gen. Tremain. Mr.. Harrington,
and x-Judge Fisher OF Washington appeared
for the prosecution. Mr. ". o. Bartlett and
