proposition that the nominations for
Judges of the supreme court be made
peIore that for governor, for the rea-
son that as soon as the latter is ac-
compished many delegates consider

looked upon as being the highest and
most honorable in the state, it is sec

pendent? There is no machine" be-
hind the Eddy candidacy there are no
corporations" supporting him. These
facts may defeat him, but he will not
lose thereby an iota of the respect
and esteem Of his thousands of friends
throughout the state. Better far to
light and lose than to win by such
weapons as his opponents are using
and using more boldly day by day
