ANOTHER journal" FAKE
Justice Lippincott and Judge
Blair Indignant Over Yarn
About Them.

The "Journar' and "Observer, yester-
day printed a statement which was an
absolute fake, fignlent of the reporters 5
ima gination. The story represented that
rumors were rife around the Court House
that a state of friction existed between
Justice Lippincott and Judge Blair over
the appointment of a successor to the late
Garret d. Van Reipen in the County
Board for the Equalizatio of Taxes The
Judges were represented as almost COM
ing to blows over the matter. Both Justice
Lippincott and Judge Blair are very in
dignant over the story.
Justice Lippincott said this morning that
the reporters who invented it must be
possessed of extremely fertile imagina-
ton. Tht story represented Justice Lip
pincott as favoring the appointment of
David W. Lawrence to fill the vacancy,
while Judge Blair insists upon giving the
place to former Tax Commissioner James
H. Love. Justice Lippincott says there
are more candidates than you could shake
a stick at. He made this statement for
publication.
In the matter of the appointment to
the Board for the Equalization of Taxes
Mr.. Mclean resigned to take the office
Of Sheriff for the short space OF time
elapsing between the death of Mr.. Hell
Ter and the election of a new Sheriff,
Mr.. Mclean was naturally reappointed as
soon as could be after election and with
out any discussion or consideration of
any other name. The usual time for MAX
ing other appointments to the Board has
always been in March and April and
presume some time between now and
April the appointment to fill the vacancy
caused by the death OF Mr.. Van Reipen
will be made.
There has been no friction whatever
between myself and Judge Blair as TO the
person to be appointed. We have as yet
neither agreed nor disagreed about any
one There is not nor will there be in the
future any friction or disagreement on
that subject The appointment viii be
made and the vacancy filled by us at the
proper time.
Judge Blair was equally indignant. He
said there has been no friction and no
disagreement about the appointment and
he fully endorsed Justice Lippincott's
statement
