The election of Ed c. O'Rear, a
Republican, to succeed Judge Jas.
H. Hazelrigg, in the Seventh Ap-
pellate district, is one OF the most
unfortunate outcomes of the elec-
tion, since it changes the political
complexion of the highest court in
the State after January Is. The
elevation of mountaineer to the
appellate bench is expected to have
an important bearing on the cases
of the assassins of Gov. Goebel.

One of the gratifying develop
ments of the election was the dis
appearance of the mckinley Dem
ocrat. Those of them who we're
really Democrats returned to their
party, while the others lined up
with Rastus and will no longer sail
under false colors. And let it be
noted that there are to-day more
true Democrats in Christian county
than ever before, comprising near
ly three-fourths Of the white voters
of the county.

tion of the Goebel election law in
this county this year and the law
leaves the statute books with a rec
ord OF fairness we trust the future
law may equal. There was an ex-
act division of officers in every pre-
cinct, each party being given an
equal number of sheriffs and clerks.
The only confusion caused any
where was from the officiousness
of Republican politicians who as
sumed to instruct the Democratic
sheriffs that they we're merely door
keepers with no official duties to
perform under section 1,484 of the
statutes. Most of them, however,
were men who could not be misled
by Republicans. We have heard
of no Republican sheriffs who we're
given similar constructions.
