JUDGE HURT, who has been
on the criminal court bench of
Texas for eighteen years, has
been nominated for chief justice
of said court by the Populists
of Texas. At the Democratic
convention held at Galveston
Hon. NJ. M. Brooks of Green
Vile was nominated to succeed
the old judge. He was not a
candidate for reelection. His
gold bug politics and refusal to
vote for the Democratic nomi-
nees had put him outside the
pale of Texas Democracy, and
seeing he would not get the
nomination he wisely declined
to be a candidate for reelection.
His political imprudence has
resulted in having the stigma
of a Populist nomination placed
upon his name here in his old
age. No doubt he is greatly
