been agreed on at meeting of the executive
committee Of the county committee yesterday
afternoon where by unanimous vote IL was de-
cfded TO accept the NominatorS' ticket. with the
exception Of the candidate for General Sessions.
Despite the pressure brought to bear on him
from various quarters, President Parsons de-
cared firmly that it would be injustice to
Judge Rosalsky and an affront TO the Republican
party not to nominate Judge Rosalsky to the
place he has filed with such credit. Every Re-
publican leader agreed with him, and some even
declared that other changes should be made in
the ticket named by the Norninators before it
was adapted to Republican use.
PARSONS FIRM FOR RosALsKY.
Some of this sentiment was manifest last
night in the speeches made az the convention
notably in one by Colonel ABE Gruber. who
declared boldly that taking part in politics should
be TO bar TO a mans afterward holding Office
even judicial office. and expressed his satisfac-
tion that the Republican party was showing tt
self 10 be no society for the extension Of the
millinery arts" Aside from the slight bitter
ness which found vent thus, the convention wcs
without particular incident
Senator Nathaniel A. Elsberg was made per-
manent chairman of the convention, which did
not get to working until about p. m He de-
clared that seven years ago he presided over a
Republican judicial convention. which had named
judges. who. elected. gave no reason for any
Republican TO be ashamed Of them.
Partisan activity" he said. has no place IN
the administration Of the law. and the Judge on
the bench should be blind to sect or creed
as the classic figure Of Justice. believe that
the action of this convention will be as praise
worthy as that of any of those Of previous years"
President Parsons OF the county committee
moved that the convention first nominate can
didate for the Court Of General Sessions. and
Gherardt Davis at once nominated Judge Rosal-
sky. At the mention OF his name there was
round Of cheers which drew echo from the
street
THE gentleman seems fairly we'll known 70
you." remarked SIr. Davis. He is a Judge who
has earned a reputation which we'll entities him
to denomination. We do not name Judges be-
cause they are politicians. but we have named
him because he is good man. an able lawyer
and an honest and fearless judge We don't
know whether can elect him. but under the
leadership of Charles Z. Hughes in this fight we
making against able enemy. we should
succeed. and We should have thousands Of In
dependent votes with us because Of this ticket
naming tonight"
