Fort Pierre Fairplay-John F.

Fort Pierre Fairplay John F.
Hughes is the logical candidate for
for Judge of the sixth circuit. He
came to the city of Pierre in the
early eighties when little more than
a boy, and for nearly a quarter of a
century has been the associate of the
people he has been called upon to
serve. His ability as a lawyer Is I'M
questioned, his firm stand and un-
wayering efforts in all matters for
the good of his home community
through capital fights and hard
times, his reputation for fairness
and his lofty ideals, his love of home
and family, have all endeared him
to his fellow citizens to such a de-
gree that there is no doubt of what
they will do at the primarieSon the
7th of June. Putting aside several
circumstances which have arisen at
terms of court in this and other
counties Of the circuit and not allow
ing personal feeling to enter as a
factor into the campaign, we are
still confronted by the fact that the
learned gentleman who opposes Mr.
Hughes is a stranger in a strange
land. Had our friend, Hughes, ar
rived at the conclusion that the ten
tn circuit was shy on judicial mater
ial and started a carpet-bag cam
paign at Faulkton, the home of
Judge Bottum, or at Eureka, the
home Of Judge Boucher, he would
have an uphill contest on his hands
but he Is at his own home and among
his friends of more than twenty
years, who have watched him rise by
sheer force of character and natural
ability to the position he now holds
near the top Of the list of attorneys
of the state and he will be given a
most hearty endorsement on June 7.
