Julius Wagner. for many years in

county, has sold his two thousand or
more ewes and lambs to Tom BOylen
and will retire permanently from the
race Of money-getting through the

health has not been very good Of late

JUSTICE BUCHANAN.

The withdrawal of w. w. Fara-
bough from the contest for Justice
of the Supreme Court insures the
nomination of Judge Arthur s. Buch-
anan for the remainder of the term.
This should be gratifying to all who
believes that the judiciary should be
free from partisan politics. Judge
Farabough's contest was necessari-
| ly factional. He has been a bitter
factionalist, but withal, ? most
agreeable gentleman, and a
lawyer of ability and character.
The nomination of Justice Buchan-
IN emphasizes the enforcement OF
the judiciary of the state from fac
tionalism. Although appointed by
Gov. Patterson his strongest support
Came from the ranks of the so-called
Independent democracy of the state.
This support did not go to Judge
Buchanan because of his political
alligments prior to his election to
the bench, but in spite thereof. He
viii receive the nomination because
he deserves it. He has made a cap
able Judge of the highest court in the
state and his judicial opinions have
been singularly free from any parti-
san bias. He is most agreeable
and courteous gentleman and has
made distinctly favorable impress
sion upon the lawyers of the state.
Judge Buchanan will be elected in
ANgust. So far he has no Republi-
can opponent and will probably not
have any He was appointed in
December 1910 and the term for
which he will be elected will not ex-
pire until 1918.

JUDGE NEIL's CONVERSION.

Judge Neil, Of the criminal court,
of Nashville, has all at once become
possessed Of burning desire to en-
force the laws He has written at
some length to Gov. Hooper to the
effect that he is imbued with an un-
quenchable thirst for the blood of
those who offend against the laws of
the commonwealth. Naturally such
a new found zeal for the execution
Of the law is causing considerable
surprise and no little comment. 1t is
ordinarily unnecessary for judges of
. the criminal courts to write the gov
ernor Of their desire for the execu.
tion of the statutes committed to
them. That is generally taken as a
matter Of course. But Judge Neil
is sensible Of the record that he has
made on the bench and realizes that
he must give some substantial ex-
preston Of his good intentions. For

II wos no. always so. Judge Neil
has made no effort whatever to en-
force the laws against the sale of
intoxicants in Nashville. He has on
the contrary shown every evidence
of a desire to shield and project the
bootleggers. He has allowed re-
creanl grand juries to go without
reproof. In fact his whole record on
tho bench has been anything bus en-
courag ing to those who hold to the
somewhat old fashioned idea that
Judges are elected to administer the
law and punish the lawIess.
Gov. Hooper will hardly be preci-
pitate, however, In entrusting the
prosecution of the corruptionists Of
Nashville to Judge Neil. There will
have to be additional evidence before
the chief executive will believe that
Neil's conversion Is sincere and gen.
uine. Having used the powers Of his
Office for years to protect the lawless
Gov. Hooper will be fully warranted
in declining to entrust any prosecu.
ton to Judge Neil.
Neil's letter to Hooper Is imperi-
tent and highly impudent. 1t is an
effort to make political capital for
mis- lawless supporters out Of q situa-
ton that should cause the blush Of
shame to mantle the cheek Of every
honest citizen.
