II was nln.eQ ABOUT RepuDllcan
headquarters yesterday that politics
will not be allowed to Interfere with
the judicial nominations this fall. AS
is usual, it is said, the Republicans
have concluded to act in unison with
the Democrats to re-elect the retiring
judges and thus shut out the Populists,
who have two candidates for the
bench,
This determination on the part of
the Democrats and Republicans is said
to have been arrived at only recently.
AT first the Republicans were deter
mined to name three candidates and
thus violate all precedentS The DEM
ocrats, learning of this intention, con-
cluded they would unite with the Pop
ulistS and nominate their candidates.
Then the Popu1ists came forward with
two candidates and insisted that they
be recognized. This was embarrassing
in the extreme. as the Democrats al
ready had two candidates in Judges
Otis and Egan, not to mention others,
who are blowing their own horns. The
Republicans, too, were in a quandary,
as. according to all precedent, Judge
Kerr is entitled to a denomination, but,
as his health is failing, it is doubtful
If he will be able to serve if elected.
Then there were no less than four Re
publican candidates, some of whom
are comparatively unknown, who in
sisted that they be given a nomination
The party bosses on both sides, it Is
said, have had an informal confer
ence and have agreed that the easiest
way out of the difficulty is to follow
the established rule renominate> the
retiring judges, and thus be rid of the
Objectionable material that has been
pushed forward in the discussion of
possible candidates.
But one thing is pretty certain If
the Republicans and Democrats agree
on this plan, the Populists will nonli-
nate at least two candidates for the
bench.
Ihe PopuliSts are arranging an ex-
tensive tour for S. NJ owen in the
Seventh district. He will follow close

this plan of the Populists and there
