the following excerpt from the

lily disguised with the tactics
adopted by two of the evening
papers in New Orleans in resort
ing to personalities and carica-
turing Judge L. E. Hall and j. b.
Aswell. 1t is good argument the
people want, not such disgusting
pictures as We see daily in the
New Orleans evening papers. 1t
is mighty poor cause that has
to resort to such things to influence
the people. The Vindicator pre-
sumes to say that the candidates
are as pure and spotless as those
who would caricature them. Such
things are not argument and
should have no weight with the
people,"

"TO What Base Uses"

About the best evidence that
could be cited at this time to
convince the average voter that
Hon. John T. Michel is a
safe winner in the January pri-
maries is the persistent rumor
that he is about to withdraw from
the Gubernatorial contest. If his
candidacy was not gaining
strength daily, causing alarm and
uneasiness to his opponents, he
would not be considered worthy
of even false and malicious ru-
NOR. It is the man of whose
strength and popularity we are
afraid that we are always seeking
to belittle aud to obstruct and an
noy in every way that is possible.
This seems to be an ugly feature
of human nature which we have
never understood or admired. 1t
is now pretty conclusively indi-
Gated that Mr.. Michel will have a
walk-over in the city of New Or
leans and throughout the State.
The prediction is made that he
will carry New Orleans by the
largest vote ever obtained by a
Democratic candidate since Louis
A. Wilt. Then with such a brill
liant outlook, why should he with
draw or ever think of doing so?
The rumor is absolutely false or
preposterous that it merits not
even q denial-emenating solely
and singly from opposition sources
which are beginning to feel that
their cause is doomed to igno.
Linious defeat. M. Michel has
published an emphatic denial of
the malicious rumor, adding that
he is in the fight to a finish, and |
advising his friends to nail the |
rumor as a deliberate falsehood |
on all occasions.
When Mr.. Michel launched his
candidacy he did the right and
proper thing as a democrat. He
was Secretary of State and i'm.
mediately resigned that Office,
and it would be worse than folly
for him to withdraw from the race
now with every solid prospect of
winning out overwhelmingly 10
he first primary. Judge Hall,
unlike Mr.. Michel, is playing a
game of safe politics. He is out
for the governorship as the Goo
Goo candidate, but all the while
holding on to a good fat judge
ship yielding him a handsome
income derived from the State
treasury. The persistent rumor
that Hon. John T. Michel intends
to withdraw from the race at any
time shows how economical of the
truth are some of his adversaries
and how they can fabricate tales /,
out of the whole cloth.

Judge c. A. 0'Niell Our Choice for
Associate Justice.

hNNVVl0UU VuNtlUV.
Some days ago the above gen.
tleman and jurist, native OF and
lifelong resident of this city, and
who is now filling the Office of
District Judge with distinguished
ability, announced his candidacy
for the Supreme bench of the
State. The position is now held
by Chief Justice Joseph A.
Breaux, but will become vacant
next year.
We believe that this step on the
part of Judge O'Niell is we'll adj
vised and that it will prove very
gratifying news to his friends,
not only of st. Mary, where they
are legion, but throughout the
entire district as we'll. The
fourth district to be represented
on the Supreme bench is COM
posed of sixteen parishes, as
follows: St. Martin, Iberia, St.
Mary, Assumption, Ascension,
st. James, East Baton Rouge,
East Feliciana, West Feliciana,
st. Helena, Livingston, Tangipa-
hoa, st. Tammany and WASH
ington.
Several gentlemen had already
announced themselves as candi-
dates for the position, among
them the present incumbent
Judge Joseph Breaux, Attorney
General Guion and Judge Call
louet. The BANNER thinks well
of all the candidates and rejoice
over the prospect of having an
able jurist on the bench, whoever
is elected in the primary to decide
the contest, but of course its
preference is for Judge O'Niell
and to secure his election we will
do everything that is fair and
honorable.
Judge O'Niell combines youth
full vigor and virility, fearlessness
and an impartial judgment, with
a knowledge of the law which is
conspicuous and conceded by
political friend or foe. AS an
associate justice of the highest
court of the State, there are many
who would doubtless be Just as
good and as able, but none more
so. As a citizen, he has always
borne an exemplary and enviable
reputation-not q stain upon his
public or private career. Speak
ing of his announcement, the
New Orleans Picayune has this to |
say about Judge O'Niell a few
days ago:
Judge O'Niell was born in
Franklin in 1869. He attended
the Tulane High School for three
years and subsequently grad
lated at Christian Brothers Col.
ege at Memphis, Tenn. He was
in the law at Tulane Uni.
Versity, graduating in 1908. He
,ook up the practice of law in St.
Mary and other parishes and had
large practice when he was
district Judge in 1908 and
las held the Office since that time.
"He is married and has q fam.
ly of eight children. His career
IN the bench has been one of uni.
'ersal satisfaction, as all factions
a the parish honor him for his
terling qualities, reflected in his
position as judge"
