The political campaign for
the election Of judges Of the
supreme court, will be the only
political question before the
state this fall. The general drift
Of sentiment among men OF all
parties is to retain the present
members of the supreme bench
in the positions they now occupy.
They are men of high standing,
both as to their ability as law
yers and their character as citi-
zens. To a large extent even
their politicalopponents acknoWl.
edge this, and the fight to
be made against them will be
on political grounds and with the
old cry that the present judges
are corporation tools and are in
fiuenced in favor Of railroads as
against the people. OF course a
thorough and honest examin-
alton of the records Of the
cot and the d e c S II S
h a n d d down will h 0 W
how absolutely foundationless is
this charge. but it will be reiter-
ated in various forms with hope
that it will influence the thought
less and create a pre- u q G G
against the republican candi-
dates. However, we believe the
people of the state are by this
time qualified to receive populist
denunciations at their true
value and reject them when MOI
accompanied by snbstantiatina
facts. We know that this would
be done and the republican candi
dates elected on full vote of the
state, but there is danger that
re p u b | lean i S, knowing the
strength Of their cause, may bt
lulled into apathy and neglect tC
register their vote, and thus
wake up the morning after elec
ton to find that populist sn
preme bench has been elected
If this calamity should happen
for it would be a calamity, M
only totherepublican party but t
the state, it will be because tn
, republicans We're not awake t
the possibility Of defeat, a posi-
bility that with very light vot
is indeed a probability.
Republicans and all other
who desire to keep the suprem
J court Of the state on a high leve
should be at the polls on electio
day.
