publican organizations respectively,
selected judicial central committee
with power to call Republican ju-
dicial convention. The committee
met at Junction City and called a
convention Of the district to meet at
Herington, September SOth, 1895.
Delegates were apportioned to each
county on the basis Of the vote for
the Republican candidate for Secre-
tary Of State in 1894. The conven-
tion met in accordance with the call
and every county in the district had
its full delegation present and par
ticipated in the convention.
The Hon. O. L. Moore, OF Abilene,
was unanimously nominated for
district judge by the couven-
ton. The general and enthus.
iastic approval which the nomi-
nation Of Mr.. Moore has received from
the people and the press throughout
the entire district demonstrates con-
clusively that the the convention
made no mistake in Its selection of a
candidate. He has practiced law in
Abilene since 1878 and ranks among
the most successful and able attor-
neys Of central Kansas. He has re-
sided in Dickinson county for 21
years; is member Of the council Of
administration Of the department Of
Kansas, Grand Army Of the Republic
and was appointed regent Of the
State University by Governor Morrill,
a few months since. In bearing, edu-l

The New Eighth District.

lne ueClslOu vi tnc olatt oupTcinc
court upholding the Judicial reappor-
tionment bill and declaring 1t consti-
tutional was an eminently just one.
Outside Of the fact that the legisla-
ture in reapportioning the State did
exactly what the people Of the State
demanded and that which conditions
themselves indicated, the trend OF
previous decisions pointed in the
same direction, and the decision was
by no means surprise to the best
informed attorneys.
Each district abolished saves the
State $2,5O0 year for judges salary
and that is a move in the right di-
rection. In any Of the counties Of
the State outside Of those containing
large cities judge can preside over
four counties, and in some instances
more, with ample time for his work.
70 have allowed any legal quibble to
prevent the saving OF about $4,000
year to the people Of the State in
judges salaries would have been un-
worthy Of the court.
This decision settles the status Of
the Eighth district and henceforth it
will consist OF the counties Of Marion,
Dickinson, Morris and Geary. We
are glad to welcome our friends on
the south into the new Eighth. Mar
ion is a good neighbor and will be
highly creditable member Of the fam
lily. 1t is peaceable, friendly and
steadfastly prosperous. 1t has a
number Of brainy lawyers like 9. M.
Clark, j. 5. Dean, T. 0. Kelly, l..
F. Kellar and others; it has wide
awake editors like 4. W. Hoch; polit-
clans Of Statewide renown and Is I'M
and overwhelmingly Re-
publican in politics. Its new rela-
lions will bring about better ac-
1ualntanceship and the newcomer
will be found eminently satisfactory.
The court decision does another
hing. 1t simplides the Judicial cam
paign. In the first place the nomi-
nation papers of Mr.. Kelly are void,
Is he has now no district. OF the
ihree counties comprising the old
l5th district, in which he was nomi-
lated as q matter of form in case the
I'D apportionment should be retained,
Marion is joined to the Eighth, and
)hase and Mcpherson to the districts
them respectively.
II was Mr.. Kelly's pleasure to be
me of the first to arise in the Herring
on Republican convention last Mon
lay and pledge his hearty support to
}. l.. Moore, the nominee Of the Re-
'ublicans for judge, in case the court
hould decide as 1t has done and sew
raj other Marion county delegates
,llowed him with the same senti-
lents.

The Republican convention at Her
ington was the only judicial conven-
tion in which Marion delegates were
seated or attended, When the So
called non-partlsan convention met
and nominated Mr. Humphrey only
Geary, Dickinson and Morris counties
were represented The Morris dele
CATION was made up Of delegates
selected by II boiling faction Of the
regular convention held at Council
Grove. while the Dickinson county
delegation, as we have before pointed
out, was present only in part, the
remainder being picked up to fill
vacancies, The Populist convention
at junction City had no delegation
present from Marion county, else the
nomination might have been very
different.
On the other hand, the Republican
convention had full, regularly chosen
delegations present from all four
counties es-Dickinson l3, Marion II,
Morris s, Geary 6--and its nomina-
ton Of Mr.. Moore was made in u
most enthusiastic and harmonious
spirit. 1t was the only fully repre-
sentative convention Of the new
Eighth district, the only one in which
Marion county had part and the only
one in which portion Of the district
did not make nomination for the
whole. This fact Marion will be apt
to appreciate.
