Mr.. Lahiff said that he had not ex-
pected an immediate answer from
Judge Parker on the question of going

pose of Cook county Democrats to let
Judge Parker know that he had moth
ing to fear in the campaign as the re-
suit of differences that occurred at the
Illinois Democratic convention.
Eve will go ahead with our arrange
ments for Aug. 20" said Mr.. Lahiff,
land we, hope Judge Parker will be
present. In any event there will be Il

the statement was made that the stu

1t is the purpose of Republicans OF
Ulster county. living in Kingston
Esopus and surrounding villages, to
make Judge Parker's home county one
of the principal fighting grounds in
the New York state campaign.
Republicans Fear for Ulster
To offset the effect of having an
Ulster county Democrat at the head OF
the national Democratic ticket, the
New York Republican leaders will be
asked to look kindly upon the plan to
name Judge A T. Clearwater. OF
Kingston, as the Republican candidate
to succeed Judge Martin on the cour,
of appeals. Judge Martin retires un-
der the age limit and his successor will
be named this falLf Judge Clearwater
enjoys great local popularity and the
Republicans of Kingston and vicinity
argue that if the county is to be kept
from the Democratic column it mus,
be accomplished by placing on. the
ticket the name sOf an Ulster county
man.
The paths of Judge Parker and Judge
Clearwater have run parallel for many
years. They studied law together and
have occupied pews in the First Dutch
church.s IN 1877 Parker was elected
surrogate and Clearwater district at
torney, and in 1883 both were re-
elected. In 1885 Parker was elected
supreme judge; in 1889 Clearwater was
elected county judge and reelected In
1895. In 1897 Parker was elected CHIEF
Judge and i'm January, 1898, Clearwater
was appointed to the supreme court
vacancy. In the fall of the same year
he was defeated for the supreme court
bench by 1877 votes in the district. He
has always carried Ulster county in
every contest he has engaged in at the
polls.
