The Supreme Court Jndgeship.

AT the next election there will
lie elected three judges OF the Su.
preme cOurt-the sue essors of
Chief Justice Clark and Judges
Walker and Manning. That Chief
Justice Clark and Judge Walker
will he each nominated without
opposition by the Democratic
State Convention seems to he
generally conceded. Both these
gehtl, men have demonstrate ed
their fitness for, the Supreme
CouIt Bench and they deserve The
unopposed nomination of t h e
party. The nomination OF Judge
Manning to succeed himself is a.
lone contested; the gentleman
who is making this contest is
Judge W. R. Allen, of Goldsboro.
Upon what ground is the con-
test made?
The letters sent out by the
committee in charge OF Judge. AL
lens campaign place his contest
upon the ground that he has dis
charged we'll the duties of Judge
of the Superior Court for about
eight years, and in this position
rendered splendid service to the
people of the State.
We have no desire and no pur-
pose to detract one particle from
this fine service. But is this u
lone sufficient? There are other
judges upon our .Superior Court
Bench whose legal ability is gen
orally recognized as equal to
Judge Aliens and whose service
on the Bench has been larger. II
splendid service on the Superior
Court Bench, and length of ser
vice furnish the leason for pro-
motion, then there are some Sn-
perior Court Judges who out
rank Judge Allen in length ofser-
vice aud who equal him in abll-
ity. f.
But why should Judge Man.
ming alone, of three members of
the Court to lie nominated, lie de.
nie a nomination? Judge Man
ming was appointed by Governor
Kitchin to fill the vacancy cans
ed by Judge Connor's resigna
tion; someone had tr be appoin.

ting power.
Judge Aliens name WAS prespn.
ted to the, Governor; 80 was
Judge Manning's; SO were h G
names of other able lawyers in
the State. Governor Kitchin had
todecide, and he eappointed Judge
Manning. The concensus OF t h q
State press colnmentsat the time
OF the appointment was that the
Governor had made no mist axe.
Judge Manning's work as a mem
ber of the Supreme Court has con-
firmed this opinion (of the press)
and the wisdom of the Governor
in the appointment. Governor
Kitchin of course, knew Judge
Manning well, not only as a law
yer. but as a man and a Demo-
crat. So far as we can hear, h e
lawyers of the State speak in
terms of high praise OF Judge
Manning's opinions as Judge
of our Suprem Court. We accept
their Judgment upon that point
Appointed by a Democratic
Governor, and having I'm a d e
good" on the Supreme Court
Bench, Judge Manning is enti-
tied to the nomination OF our
party, according toits unbroken
lcustom and precedent. The en-
dorsement of the Governors ap-
pointee by nomination has, as
we recall, BEEN refused a very few
times-by district Conventions,
but never, as we recall, by a State
Convention.
Had Judge Connor remained
ON our Supreme Court Bench, the
friends of Judge Allen would not
be running him against Judge

Meat is. Unnecessary.

Washington, Jan. 22.-By engag'
ing a corps OF experts in household
economics and the preparation of
food products, to devise substitutes
for any article of food which may
be boycotted, because of high prices,
the Anti-Food Trust league took its
first step in aiding the meat boycott.
While the organization disclaims
any relation, more than a sympathet-
ic ore, to the movement to abstain
from meat, its officers will soon be
sending broadcast through the dis
tricts where the meat strike is on,
recipes and formulas for foods which
are claimed to be capable of offer
ing as much nutrition as beef.
This same plan will be applied to
the leagues campaign against any ar
ticle of food which may be decided tc
be too high priced.

BRITISH ELECTIONS

OW AN EQUAL DIVISION OF
TWO BIG FACTIONS.

Does Not Predict Rosy Future for
Home Rule.-Campaign Is Strenu-
Gus and Animosity Runs
High.

London, Jan. 24.-Never in the recol
lection of the Oldest politicians have
the British parties been in such per-
picking position as they find them
selves now and are likely to face
when the next house of commons is
organized. So evenly divided is the
membership of the next house, and so
close is the popular vote that the re-
suit of the elections for all practical
purposes may be considered a tie.
DAILY-THREE
Mr. Balfour's speeches show plainly
that with the existing conditions he
is glad not to have control of the
government. Premier Asquith would
be equally pleased to escape the per-
lis of plotting the party through the
troubled waters
All the prophets make the predic
ton that the new cabinet will find
itself in the minority within year
and that the country will plunge into
another general election.
The remarkable figures recorded at
this stage of the balloting foreshadow
clearly how nearly equal both the pop
ular vote and the membership of the
house of commons will be divided be-
tween the two great factions. The
popular vote stands:
Unionists, 2,565,627; Liberals, g.,
334,315; Laborites, 395,115. This gives
the United Liberal-Labor party a ma,
jority of 153,SO3 in total vote of
5,2S5,157 The membership of the
house of commons is a tie, the Union
lists and the combined Liberal and
Labor party each having elected 21s
representatives.
One hundred and sixty-seven seats
remain to be filled, of which 102 are
English. In the last parliament these
were: Unionists, 26; Liberal, lis,
Nationalist, Is. Should the present
trend of voting continue, neither Tho
Unionists nor the Liberals can mus
ter a majority of more than a dozer
and the Natlonalists with SO vote!
will be wholly masters of the situation
Home Rule Set Back.
Home rule is not likely to get ia
next season, according to well verset
politicians, because the reform of tn,
house of lords, which the prime min
lister has written at the head of hi
program, promises a great struggle.
The surprise of the campaign ha
been that the manufacturing centers
with a few exceptions, have gone 70
. free trade, while the squirearchie
!. shifted to the protection party.
That the struggle is bitter even {

ton. So much personal feeling an
