Recorders Popularity and Fine Rec
ord en- Bench Make Opposition
For Reelection improbable.

Barring the scattering yolleys or re-
count talk, and the various post-mor-
tens or promising political careers,
nippcd in the bud, the political atmos-
phere is now cleared until the begin
ming OF hostilities for the spring judi
cial elections, TO be held Monday
April 3, 1911.
The early-and-late Proctor Knott
Owens has already announced his in
tention OF running for the circuit
bench, which presages tie injection
OF little hilarity in usually rather
prosaio campaign.
In addition 10 the judges OF the cir
cult bench. one police justice, and
both Recorder James Phelan, and
Judge William f. Connolly, of the re-
corder's court, will be up for re-eiec-
ton.
1t is already being freely gossiped
that Judge Phelan will have no oppo-
sition In his campaign for reelection.
Two previous elections have seen
the sacrifice OF an ambitious young
Republican laWyerpolitician who has
heard the call of his party 10 make
the run for recorder advertising
only. But IN each instance Judge
Phelan's majority in Republican and
Democratic strongholds alike, has
rolled along in a way to discourage
even the campaigner for advertising
only
Talk OF opposition for the popular
l'recorder comes and goes, while Judge
Phelan sits serenely upon record VI
sustained decisions i'm which the peo-
pies interests have been well guarded.
Judge Phelan is occasionally over
ruled by the supreme court. a recent
instance was in the Lois Mole case
where the trial Judge, acting upon
discretion in preference TO statutes,
placed the child In custody, under
! very heavy bail. which was promptly
reduced by the supreme court But
! no case in recent years aroused such
a storm of public sentiment as did
/ the succeeding trial OF the child j
father. In his behalf the little gin
perjured herself Judge Phelan' S
! overruled decision was intended as a
guard against that very contingency.
In the forty-four odd cases against
I the y. Z r., involving The sale pf
workingmen's tickets on the Jefferson
| line. Judge Phelan's decision, which
was assailed yainly, has been the big
gest real victory OF the city. In the
many years OF litigation with the
street car company.
Judge Phelan numbers some of his
strongest supporters among Republi-
cans who do not believe in peanut
politics but in the man for the posi-

An interesting example Of what We
may call Bilstumpsism is reported from
the State of New Jersey in connection
with the erection Of a monument on the
scene of one of the minor battles of the
Revolutionary War-at Red Bank. Some
years ago the state government. II
state expense. provided for the construc-
ton Of the monument, for the sake OF
convenience intrusting the direct super
vision OF the work 70 the local Board Of
FreeholGers. The latter body then Sc
cured the passage of supplementary
act authorizing il at its own ex-
pense or that of the county TO place
suita BILE memorial tablet upon the shaft.
This was done and il was supposed
that ''everything was gracefully CON
GUIDED.
But they who cherished that fond de
lusion reckoned not with Bill Stumps.
For ii was speedily per- -lyed that the
perennial brass substantially ignored the
battle which the monument was sup
posed To commemorate and was devoted
tC the glOritication Of the collective Rl
Stumpses of the Board of Freeholders
1t was their monument. and their names
led al the rest in the memorial inscrlp-
ton. When some OF the Sons of the
Revolution saw ii, however they were
not at all inclined to take it in Pick
Wickian SenSe-or spirit. They remon-
strated and secured the passage Of an
other act. making their society the Gus
todian OF the monument. Armed with

shaft. Then the Attorney General oil
The state warned them that their act
WAS illegal that the Sons of the Keyolu-
ton were the custOdianS of the monu
ment and that the tablet prepared by
the society must he replaced and "e

torted that the state had 10 right 10 tie
