Whoever the Marshalltown candi-
date for Judge Is to be he should be
determined upon at the earliest possible
moment, for the Marshalltown dele
CATION should be given time in which
to make it thoroughly understood in
the other two counties that Marshall
must have a resident judge. The Ben
ton delegation entered into a compact
with the Marshall delegation to sup
port the Marshall candidate In return
for support of the Benton candidate.
That compact should still hold, even
tho death has made 1t necessary for
Marshall to produce a new candidate
There are political interests pulling IN
other directions, however, and the Mar
shall candidate must have time in
which to make known his claims for
consideration.
There can he little question that
there is merit in the contention that II
would not be entirely fair to Messrs.
Stone and Northup to submit the local
issue to the former delegation named
by Judge Caswel after contest In
which both Stone and Northup were
competing candidates, but it also looks
as tho this delegation must decide the
matter under the provisions Of the law
If the comfy convention is re-con-
vencd, selection might be made witR
the understanding that the old delega-
ton would support the candidate thus
chosen, but, unless eminent lawyers
should produce more law than has
now been cited in this controversy. 1t
would be mistake to send new dele
citation to the judicial convention.

Golf cannot yet be considered a pop
ular game that is, 1t is not played by
the public generally, and is as little
understood by the public as any for
| cign game could he. II is growing,
| however and the move just made by
the directors of the Country Club, in
extending an invitation to the state
tournament to meet here, will help to
ganeralize information concerning the
game and to populariZe 1t at home.
| About fifty or sixty visitors will attend.
| The local club will provide a banquet
and increased hack service to the
grounds The players will pay their
| own expenses. IF the club could extend
d public invitation to visit the grounds
on that day and permit the hackmen
to go after the business of conveyance
| ing. the pleasure of the tournament
| would be still further extended. Mem
bership in the Country Club is not
controlled by a select or close corpora
ton. and should HE enlarged every
year To increase public interest by
closer acquaintance Is the first step In
the desired direction.

Another carnival has been put on
in Marshaltown 1t was a clean show.
that is, there was nothing about 1t in
decent or so vulgar as to offend any
one. 1t made money for the promot-
ers. and the same committee can put
on a carnival another year There are
some financial sacrifices involved in
cutting out gambling privileges, Ger
man villages, etc. even II there are
none connected with the suppression OF
vulgarity in other forms. and the COM
mittee which successfully conducts a
carnival upon the clean plan is entitled
to credit for Its work, II not commend
alton.
