FOr JudGe ParKer's ReappOLntmen,.

Below will be found an article clipped
from the last issue of the Silver City
Independent, every word of which is
endorsed, not only by Deming's attor-
neys, but by nineteen-twentieths Of
our citizens. We are all in favor Of
Judge Parker and confidently look for
his reappointment:
"Judge Frank W. Parker, the presid-
ing judge Of this district, was last
week the recipient of an expression Of
the esteem in which he is held by the
members Of the local bar in the form
Of a petition addressed to him signed
by every attorney Of Silver City and
strongly urging that he become a can
didate for reappointment to the su-
preme bench. It has since been under
stood that Judge Parker will be a can
didate for reappointment. In no branch
Of the government has il become so
we'll established that good official de-
serves reappointment as in the judi
ciary. To the supreme bench in many
of the states judges are appointed or
elected for life, or at least for much
longer terms than the officials Of the
executive and legislative branches Of
the government. President Roosevelt
in conformance with that policy, has
made it a point to re appoint those
judges on the federal bench who have
been honest, able and conscientious.
The respect and experience which a
good Judge gains are of infinite worth
to community and are a government
asset which it is public extravaganza
to discard. 1t is for these reasons that
The Independent advocates and ex.
presses the hope for the re-appoint-
ment of Associate Justice Frank W.
Parker, of the New Mexico supreme
court and presiding Judge of the third
! judicial district, whose term expires
next month. Judge Parker's qualif-
cations for the high position which he
holds are too well known to require fur
ther comment. During the eight years
that he has been on the bench he has
proved himself an able, conscientious,
Industrious and just Judge, and his ser.
vices have been most satisfactory ia
litigants, attorneys and the people in
general.

Thanksgiving.

Before another issue of the Graphic,
Thanksgiving day will have come and
gone. On that day about five million
turkeys, all young, of course, will
yield up their lives, become masticated,
swallowed down" and "assimilated"
by the American people as an express
sion of their gratitude for blessings be-
slowed. This is perhaps all right from
the standpoint Of the people, but it
does seem to be a little tough on the
turkey. Five million turkeys, weigh.
ing perhaps forty million pounds.
enough to load a freight train twelve
miles long; enough so that if they were
headed single file for the execution
block, as the front gobbler was getting
it in the neck, the rear one would be
back in the line over 1900 miles; or,
as the front turkey reached Kansas
City, the last in the procession would
be strutting along the Santa Fe rail
road over two hundred miles west OF
Deming.
The sympathies of good people doubt
less go out toward the turkey, but not
sufficient to interfere with their appe.
tites when they face the condition Of
the hiped on that particular day. All
things are mortal and must pass away,
and this occasion seems to be a be-
fitting one to remove the young and
tender birds from the temptations, the
trials and the vicissitudes of this NOR
tai life.
With the return of Thanksgiving day,
as some one says, "For all we have, let
us be thankful, and for what we are
hustling for, let us be hopeful"
