A REMARKABLE JUDICIAL
RECORD.

| A djspatch from Erie, announcing
tine resignation of Judge Leander
Stillwell as Judge of the Seventh Ju-
dicisl District, wsll be Of interest to
the State. Judge Stlllwell's resIgna-
tion terminating an extraordinary
term of service on the bcrch. Far II
years ne had presided over the same
district, being regularly reelected
every four years, and In the last lew
campaigns, as we remember, without
onposition, so satisfactory has Judge
Stillwell's conduct on the bench been
to people of all parties and classes
The reasons given by the judge for
his retirement, at the beginning or
new term of which thera are more
than two years yet to serve, are verV
honorable To him. In resigning ne
states that owing to the serious con-
dition of his wife's health it has been
necessary for him to divide his mind
between his judicial and family
duties, to such an extent that t. e IN
terest of the district may suffer. Ap'
preciating that the district is entit-
led to the undivided service of the
Judge, he has notified the Governor OF
MS determination to retire on Sep
tember /.
Such Judges as Stillwell honor the
bench and the profession of the law.
and there are many such IN Kansas
and all the States. They uphold the
dnest traditions Of the judicial office,
and their fidelity is never unreWafd-
al. for there is nothing that Is more
universally respected than an Impair
Jial and able bench, Judge Stiliwell's
long service of quarter century is
fine illustration.
There are other judges in Kansas
who have served twelve, sixteen or
even twenty years, being reelected
no matter what the vicissitudes OF
party majorities. The fact strength
ems the argument 10 behalf or the
election of our federal judges, who
are now political appointees for life
and chosen by favor and in reward
for political services. II elected by
the people, it would not follow that
the average term Of Office would be
grately reduced. There is no reason
why they should not continue to hold
office practically for life" the present
law not being for life service but
only during good behavior. "-Tope'
ka CaDital.

UNFORTUNATE,

One day last week, our old friend,
Mr.. c. Terry. had the misfortune to
get one of his legs broken. He was
driving a team to hay baler aud
under an extra strain the double tree
broke and one piece flew back striking
his leg below the knee, shivering the
bones. Mr.. Terry is u years old, but
has the nerve and grit Of young
man. We look for him to be walking
into town in another week,
Another hay ballng accident accur-
ed below Austin where Bob Phelps
was baling. A young man had the
misfortune TO get his foot into the
baler and get 1t badly smashed.
