bers of the supreme court commission i'm
place Of Commissioners Oldham of Kearney
ard Albert of Columbus, the supreme
court and all the commissioners are re-
pubIicans Both Commissioners Oldham
and Albert are democrats and the men
who succeed them are republicans. The
terms of all the commissioners expired to-
day and all were reappointed with the
exception Of the two named. Commissioner
Albert notified two of the judges some
days ago that he had opportunity to
again enter the practice Of law with his
old partner and his reappointment would
make little difference to him.
The appointment of Commissioner
Calkins makes a vacancy in the member
ship OF the Board Of Regents of the State
university which will necessitate an APP
pointment by Governor Sheldon, the person
appointed TO serve until the election this
fall, at which time the term for which
Judge Calkins was elected will expire. The
resignation of Judge Calkins was tele-
phoned to Governor Sheldon at Nehawka
this morning and the new commissioners
at once went to work listening to argu-
ments. 1t is understood the commissioners
will continue to use their wives or rela-
tlves of the judges for stenographers. the
new commissioners probably taking over
