A PARTISAN BENCH.

From time immemorial this
Seventh Judicial district has
been absolutely non.partisan IN
the matter of selecting..its judy
es, and the result has been
most satisfactory in that it has
ever had upon the bench men
of marked ability and integrity.
Judge McKelvey was a Demo
crat, and was repeatedly
elected in a district which was
then, as it is now, Republican,
with out political opposition. A
Republican governor appointed
L. L. Baxter, a Democrat, when
an additional Judge was pro-
vided for, and during all these
years he has been upon the
bench he has never been op-
posed at the polls, save once
the first time, when a handful
of Republicans held a conven-
ton and nominated a Republic
an in the person of J. P. Will
liams, of Fergus Falls, an ex-
cellent man and fully qualified,
but who was overwhelmingly
defeated by Republican votes
because the party felt that the
bench should be above and be.
yond partisanship. This was
fifteen years ago, and Judge
Baxter has served ever since.
Judge Sea,le was appointed
to succeed a Republican Judge,
Hon. L. w. Collins, when he
was elected TO The supreme
bench, and the Democrats have
never opposed a candidate to
him.
This district has been con-
spicuous in the state as having
two of the ablest judges upon
the bench who have served with
the utmost satisfaction. Their
ability and integrity are every.
where recognized. The inter-
ests of no itigant ever suffered
by reason of any injustice or
bias on their part; and SO
we'll satisfied are the attorneys
practicing before them that they
have repeatly signed petitions
for their candidacy.
Such briefly has been the rec
ord in this district. But now,
and for some purpose not ap-
parent, a Democratic judiciary
convention has been called to
meet at Little Falls on Septem-
Der II, to nominate a candidate
in opposition to Judge Searle.
The call is signed by W. P.
Remer and G. E. Vasaly-in op-

North Scranton was the scene yes
terday morning shortly before noon of
a very destructive fire which complete
ly destroyed the large stable of I'm
detaker O'Donncll at Brick avenue and
Oak street. burning four horses quar-
tered In the barn at the time.
The stable was Il two-story and
basement frame structure about 10Ox4O
feet in size and Is situated in the rear
Of Mr.. O'Donncll's residence. There
was no one in the building at the time
the blaze commenced. nor had there
been for some twenty minutes before.
Two probable causes are given, name-
ly. an overheated stove in the office
and an uninsulated electric light wire,
though which of these is the real
cause 1t is impossible to ascertain.
When the blaze was discovered at
11.45 o'clock it had gained immense
headway and the entire rear portion
was a mass of flames. An alarm was
turned in from box 81. on the corner,
and then an effort was made to get
out the eleven horses in the building.
whose agonizing screams could be
heard blocks away.
Cloths were thrown over the heads
of seven and they were led out through
the opened doors of the barn. The
other four were in the rear and it was
impossible to get near them. The
flames had by this time become so
fierce that the rescuers were obliged

The Niagara, Liberty and Excelsior
companies responded to the first alarm
but when the magnitude of the con-
flaglUtion and the danger to adjoin-
ing property was seen, a second alarm
was turned in to which the Cumber-
land and General Phinney companies
RESPONDED.
The fremen did excellent work under
the supervision of Chief Walker and
soon had four streams on the burn
ing structure. 1t had gained so much
headway, however. that their efforts
were futile and the building burned
down to the ground leaving only n
mass of smoulde1ing embers when
out was sounded at o'clock.
Mr.. O'Donnell's loss is very heavy
and includes besides the barn and
horses. five coaches, two hearses, five
light wagons, two band wagons. sew
eral sleighs and a large undertaking
equipment.
Mr.. O'DOnnell places his loss be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000. about one-third
of which amount is covered by in
surance. One of the rescued horses is
badly burned and the veterinarian at
tending 1t says 1t will probably die.
When the Niagara hose wagon was
on its way to the fire it cOllided with

and. throwing the occupant to the
road, rendered him unconscious. He
revived after 4 short time and with
the assistance Of bystanders repaired
the breaks in his wagon and started
off again on his journey.
