Our New Judge and District Attorney.

1t should not be imagined that
| because the BANNER was an out
spoken advocate of his opponent
in the recent judicial election that
it does not extend its best wishes
to the new Judge, Hon. Charles
A. O'Niell, who entered upon the
functions of his Office on Thurs
day evening last. The editor of
the BANNER always strives never
to allow his political preferences
to 60 so far as to deny to his OPP
ponents all the merit, ability or
good qualities which may belong
to them.
Judge O'Niell is a gentleman of
fine forensic talent, he, was born
and reared in the town of Frank
lin and has at heart the best well
fare and interests of our town,
parish and people. We do not
now, and never did, entertain the
least doubt that he will make an
excellent judicial officer and that
he will keep up the needed lofty
standard dignity of the office.
In his Official career he has the
best wishes Of the BANNER, whose
assistance, if needed, will always
be at his service in all things tend
ing to the proper administration
of justice.
The new District Attorney, Hon.
Thomas NJ. Milling, also took
charge Of his office, at the same
time. succeeding Hon. w. K.
Wilson, who has for a number of
years filled the Office of District
Attorney with credit to himself
and the State, and who retires
with the best wishes of his fellow
parishioners. No one could be
better equipped to fill the impor-
tant Office of District Attorney
than Mr.. Milling, and we predict
for him an Official career of marked
success and distinction. The best
wishes of the BANNER are like
wise extended to him.
