partisan Judiciary do violence t.
| every good mans sense Of Justice
and prOpriety, and is it not high
| time in North Carolina TO change our
! former partisan practices IN this re
| gard Chairman Pou in his parti-
san zeal, goes even 50 far as to aid
wise the Democratic voters Of the
State to vote against the opposition
candidates FOR the Superior Court
.udgpships. confessipg at the same
time he does not know them. nor
whether they are qualified for the
position or not. We quote from the
address.
"Their candidates for Superior
Court .Judoes are men with whose
records this committee is not fami-
liar" Then in the very next sent
ence Chairman Pou, WITHOUT KNOW
ING the candidates, undertakes to
ridicule them for their obscurity.
Notwithstanding the policy and part
isan practices of the Democratic par
ty in this regard, has shut and barred
the door to Judicial honors against
all political opponents heretofore,
thus passing upon them the sentence
Of doom to personal and profession
al obscurity. Chairman Pou says
further; 1T is hoped that these gen
tlemen have qualifications for the
| position Of Judge (fOr the Judges
are our most important otficers), but
if they have the qualifications that
are necessary to make Judge, these
qualities are known only to then
closest friends, or as yet whatsoever
ed.'
Possess your soul with patience
Chairman Pou, for unless your Dem
ocratic partisan Judges of election
and returning board cheat the PEG
pie out of their rights to vote, YOU
will have the opportunity of seeing
these obscure and unknown gentle
men on the ench in Johnston coun-
tv, if YOU yourself continue to prac.
tice law in that locality. What g
bitter partisan appeal Chairman Pou
makes on this subject IN closing his
address We wonder If the Demo

this address or authorized Chairman
Pou to speak for them as indirectly
interested parties, IN making it Tc
maintain far balance and THEN
own seIf-respect, they ought to come
over their own signatures and de
nounce it. Hear Chairman Pou as
he winds up, when his partisan sou
warns up to the full nights of Dem
ocratic Judicial partisanship
"Let us put aside every question
which might wea ken us, and seeB
onl y the success of the Democratic
party, and let us seek that success
with zeal worthy of Democrats
1t is the success of the Democratic
party" and that alone he advises his
party to ''seek only"
