The BAR PRIMARY
SEATTLE times ON ACTION OF
king COUNTY BAR.
Lawyers Have the Opportunity Of
knOwing the Fitness and QuaIifi-
cations of Candidates for judo.
ship. ChehaliS County Bar ASSO.
CiatiOn Acted Right.

Speaking of the action of the King
County Bar Association, in holding
primary to name candidates for
judges of the superior court, the Sc
attic Times of August 80, says:
The lawyers are the only large
class of voters o fthe community who
have an adequate opportunity of be-
coming acquainted with the candi-
dates for the judiciary, and of know
ing their fitness and qualifications
for the bench.
The general voter-making up his
mind how to cast his vote for candi-
dates for the bench in the absence of
a bar primary-almost invariably
seeks information about the candi-
dates from some lawyer or lawyers
of his acquaintanship. The informa-
tion he thus gets is partial and frag-
mentary.
The bar primary plan substitutes
| for the advice of one or two lawyers
| the joint advice of all the lawyers in
! the community. 1t gives the voter
the most valuable information he
| could have when he comes to cast his
vote. 1t tells him exactly what all
of the lawyers think about the can
| didates for the bench.
The plan is in exact accord with
the spirit of the direct primary law,
because it aims not to control the
action of the voters at the primary,
but to give them the bebefit of full
information as to the estimation in
which the candidates are held by
their fellow lawyers, who alone have
a good opportunity to judge them.
bar primary is that it will serve to
offer an inducement to the best class
of lawyers to become candidates for
the bench.
If the people establish the pre-
cedent of ratifying the Endorsements
made by the lawyers for the bench
it will be possible to induce the very
/ best attorneys at the bar to become
candidates for judicial office.
| If the Endorsement of a good can
didate by the bar means his election
/ by the people, men eminently quail
| flied for judicial positions having
confidence in the certainty of their
| Endorsement by the lawyers will sub
nit their names.
Such men will not often become
candidates under the old order of
things. They are not willing to get
out and join in a mad scramble for
an office of the dignity which at
taches to position on the bench.
The Endorsement of the bar pri-
mary candidates by the people will
be a long step towards elevating the
judiciary and removing it from the
domain of partisan politics.
The candidates idorsed by the bar
are we'll qualified. and some eminent
ly qualified for positions on the bench
and from the standpoint of both abil-
ity and fitness should be nominated
and elected by the people.
If the time ever comes when the
lawyers at their bar primaries in
dorse an unfit man for the bench, ii

Will then be time for the people to re-
fuse to follow the lead of the bar in
selecting judges This time the law
yers have done the community great
service through their primary, and
the people should appreciate it.

THE WEAKEST SPOT
ADMINISTRATION SUMMARIZED
IN new YORK WORLD.
"A SCathing Arraignment of Repubii-
Can Administration. Sins of OmiS.
sion and Commission. The Hiah
Tariff is Far and Away the Weak
est Spot in Republican Line.

est Spot in Republican Line.
Taft swears by Roosevelt Sherman
says the great issue before the peo-
pie is the perpetuation of the Roose-
welt policies. This should put the
voters of the country upon inquiry.
The New York World summarizes the
fact with regard to Roosevelt admin
istration, as follows:
!. 1t has been extravagant and
wasteful.
=. 1t has attempted to popular
ize war.
3. 1t has gloried in Philippine i'm
peralism.
4. 1t has menaced the States with
Federal usurpation by means of con-
structive Jurisprudence.
). 1t ha .ecklessly undermined
confidence in our business methods,
causing panic, depression and suffer-
ing.
6. 1t has profited by the political
contributions of corp6rations seeking
legislative favors.
7. 1t has spoken vociferously
against the malefactors of great
wealth, but it has not brought one of
them to justice.
s. 1t has bullied Congress, threat
ening to do as it pleased, law or no
law.
8. 1t has assaled the Courts when
their judgments were contrary to it's
wishes.
10. 1t has maintained the highest
tariff ever known in a free country,
and has made no move in favor of
/ income and inheritance taxes.
II. 1t has constantly demanded
law and more law for the prosecution
of trusts, although existing laws are
| held by it to be too drastic for en-
! forcement.
-. 1t is now attempting to round
out a career of willfulness, greed, am
bition and tyranny by forcing the
election of a personally excellent and
amiable Proxy.
The World should have added that
! acquiescing in the maintenance of
| tariff atrocities, President Roosevelt
abandoned the ameliorative policy of
Mckinley, which he had solemnly
pledged himself to sustain. He there
by played into the hands of the
Trusts and allowed them to recoup
themselves for campaign contribu-
tions. This was distinct and hum
! iliating perfidy.
The Herald thoroughly agrees
with the World in it's declaration that
there must be specific, intelligent and
forcible opposition to this sort of
thing from A to 2. Yet the weakest
spot in the enemy's line is high tar
! iff. Republican leaders well under
stand their indefensible position and
have sought to cover it by platform
promise of revision. Here the DEM
Ocrats should concentrate their at
tack. They can carry the election
on this issue, as they did when they
elected Tilden and twice afterward
when Cleveland was triumphantly
chosen.
