he was appointed to fill a vacancy on
the bench of this court, it being rec
ognized by all people that he was the
proper and logical appointee. 1t Is
we'll to note in passing that up to
this time the Hon. A. B. Kittredge,
whom the applicant would have us
believe has so improperly Influenced
the judges of this bench, was practi-
cally unknown to the politics of this
state. Justice Haney has served as
a member of this court for over
thirteen years, having twice been re-
elected and having received his nom
ination without opposition from the
members of his political party. It is
we'll to note also, that, at his last
election. he led his party vote on
governor by over one thousand; GER
tainly he mast have stood we'll with
the opposing party as welt as among
all factions in his town. He has been
the author of many important deci-
sions Involving, many of them, the
rights of the masses as against the
socalled classes and his standing as
a learned and upright jurist has
never heretofore been called into
question.
