NON PARTISAN JUDICIARY
Continued from First Page

the state could nominate and elect to
the supreme bench whom they saw
fit. That they would not see fit to
nominate any of the present members
Of that body was obvious. Therefore
the nomination must be taken away
from tina people and given to the boss
es. Such an act was drawn by an at
tache OF the supreme court. 1t was
forced, iammed and traded thru the
legislature. 1t was signed by the gov
ernor, and in due course became law.
The next move is recent history, the
notorious Tacoma convention where
drunken delegates, in their barroom
revels, cheered the interests and scott
ed at the people. The convention
was cut and dried. There was no
semblance of popular representation.
The non-partisan judiciary league was
born after the Tacoma convention. 1t
was brought into being to defeat the
purpose of that convention, and to ac-
complish this it asks the support of
every voter in the state, no matter
what political faith he may profess.
The direct primary law must be pro-
tected at any cost. Without it the
voter is powerless.
The supreme court must be regain
ed at any hazard. Otherwise citizen
ship is an empty word.
These are plain, unadorned facts,
presented to your reason and not to
your passion. In the cause of common
safety the non-partisan judiciary league
asks your support, to the end that
there may be equal justice for all with
in the state OF Washington.
