KEEP 1T OFT.

Judge Parker of New York will
make mistake if he permits himself
to be used by the democratic polite
ians. He has taken a high position on
the bench and in the event of demo-
cratic victory he will rise to the
supreme court. The people at large
do not look kindly upon the efforts
now being made to bring him out as
candidate for the presidency. At
the annual dinner of the Brooklyn Bar
Association on the 22nd presiding
Justice Goodrich of the appellate
court mabe speech which was plain
~ inspired by the proposal to nomi-
nate Chief Judge Alton B. Parker of
the court of appeals for president on
the democratic ticket. His subject
was Judge Only" In the course of
his remarks he said:
"Of.recent years political managers
have been looking to the bench with
longing eyes for candidates for the
great executive offices of governor and
president. The efforts which were
made in this state last year to secure
such candidate for the Office of COVER.
nor are too recent to be forgotten.
Everlasting honor to the judges who
refused to be tempted by the insidiou:
attack. They recognized the incapati.
bility between judicial tenure and po-
litical candidacy"
Judge Goodrich concluded as fol
| lows:
Tenure of judicial position should
prohibit political aspirations during
the term of office. To every judge
would address the language of Cardi
nal Wolsey;
"Cromwell, 1 charge thee, fling
away ambition.
By that sin, fell the angels; how
can man then,
The image of his Maker, hope tc
win by it?'

LONGING FOR SENATOR.

The information seems to come
straight and from correspondent in
in close touch with Cover
nor Longino that there is no doubt he
will within the next few days, very
likely this week, announce as CAN
didate for United States senator to
succeed Hon. H. D. Money.
This, at first, would seem to be
very large undertaking, but Mr.. Lon
gino is a close observer of things, a
shrewd politician, and if he did not
have good reasons to believe that he
would be su ccessful he would not enter
the field against such man as Mr..
Money who has been in harness so
long and who has given the state such
general satisfaction, but there was
never a governor who came out of the
office without some enemies 1t matters
not what his conduct in office was.
But while these enemies will not
amount to much, the fact that the
governor will be candidate in oppo-
sition to Mr.. Money, who is so popu-
lar with the masses of the people and
who has so many friends, will create
feeling of opposition to Mr.. Longino
and he will have to beat this down as
we'll as the i'll feeling entertained for
him during his administration.
It will be remembered that few
days ago the report was sent out that
Col. Moneys health was failing.
But this was promptly denied by his
friends. The idea was to circulate
the report that finding that his health
was failing he would retire and lei
some younger man take his place.
But there seems to be no prospect OF
his retiring and Mr.. Longino will find
him the Invest opposition with which
he has ever had to contend. There is
scarcely a man in the state who doe:
not know Mr.. Money by reputation
and there are but few perhaps who dc
not heartily endorse the brilliant
record he has made in congress, ant
having been there SO long and having
acted his part SO well he will be hare
| to defeat. Still Mr.. Longino ha
many friends and friends who vii
work for his election as long as Their
is the least chance of his success.

PRESIDENTS APPOINT
THE
MENTS,

The president has written letter
to CLARK Howell, editor of the Atlanta
Constitution, in which he expresses
no regret of his action of appointing
negroes to fill offices in the south, but
intimates that he is only following a
precedent established by Cleveland,
Mckinley and others. Before these
appointments were made he declares
that he made particular inquiries as
to the character and fitness OF the ap-
plicants, who in every case were
recommended to him, and that he will
not swerve the hundredth part of a
hairs breadth from what he has done
in the matter or may do along this
line in the future.
But the president went at it in the
wrong way, admitting, which we do
not, that the character and fitness
came mp to the standard. His ap-
pointments were made, not so much
to carry out precedent as to estab-
lish political and social equality in
the south, and in proof of this 1t is
only necessary to say that he estab-
lished a precedent by inviting and
entertaining negro women and negro
men at the white house in private
and not in an official way as other pres
idents did. AS to the fitness and
character he does not understand OF
the public is wrong. The appoint
ment of DR.. Crum is not fit one or
the people Of Charleston would not SC
seriously object to him. A negro
is holding high official place. an APP
pointive office, in Savannah and nc
kick has come yet from the white peo-
pie, because he is fit man for the
place and his character is good. There
are several Instances of the same kind.
