THE RRcALL or JUDGES

Concerning this proposition there are
some questions that every voter should
candidly ask himself. Do want poll
ties to enter the court? Do | want the
judge to become a mere political trim
mef in order that he may keep his
place? Is that the kind of Judge !
want to see on the bench? Well, that
is just what will happen if the recall of
judges is established. There is not a
man among US today who has not said
that about many things-the church,
the fraternal orders, the schools, our
relation as neighbors to each other, and
the administration of justice in the
courts-about all of these every
right thinking man has said keep
pilitics and political sentiment out of
Them" Political strife will send them
apart; we all know politics will destroy
the usefulness Of all these things. we
valve SO well. And SO, society ispretty
well agreed to bar the door to politics
in all of such Institutions.
We want to feel when we go into
court that the judge is way above POI
litical prejudice. And so we say to our
judges, Keep out of politics, and we
are wise in so saying.
But here comes proposition to make
political schemers of all judges by say
ing to them, unless you curry public
favor in your decisions, we will start a
movement for your recall at the ballot
box. Every man of sense knows that
there - not..a community in the state
where the voters are not divided in
politics. There is ruling party at
every ballot box and that party is led
by few leaders. If the Judge keeps
his place he must play underground
politics with the majority and we no
longer have the ''just and upright
judge" but in his place a cringing
office seeker, afraid to rule rightly and
fearlessly. That is what this recall Of
judges will bring us to. Let US under
otdilu OAlc thtAtik AHlp pIUpOSlLlOn is
put forward by set of politicians who
want to bring the courts under the
sway of politics, That Is their secret
object. Of eourse, they do not offer
that argument to the people. They
talk bravely about corruption on the
bench" Let every voter ask himself
the common sense question: When
have ever knowniof a corrupt Judge?
Where has there been such an instance
in all my knowledge? Where, among
all the judges / have known, was there
one whom / did not respect as an
honest man? The practical effect OF
the recall will be to make the honest
judge dishonest, coward, time server,
making every decision with an eye
upon how it will affect him. That is
politics. There are many places where
we want to keep politics OCT and the
courtsis one of them. Governor Hoard.

HY tEWFEE OAIeGIs
In the dinness OF the little stone
church lIilla practiced the wedding
march. Now and then tear dropped
on her fingers but she went brately
on, repeating the hard passages, never
resting until the music seemed to drip
from her fingers as she touched the
keys. When the crash OF the last
chords came, she rose, and stood lean
ing over the choir rail. looking down
into the Stiffness and shadow beneath.
"Oh. dear" came her little signing
complaint "Oh, dear" and with that
she dropped down on one OF the cush-
Toned seats and sobbed, tempestously,
but silently
She raised her head as quick step
sounded in the aisle beneath.
up there, Eilda?' called a mans
voice
She Strengthened herself and wiped
the tears from her eyes with
rolled-up wad of wet handkerchief.

up at the girl Il heard you practic-
ing the wedding march. DO YOU know

Then, after a moments silence, sht
made her generous effort, Such a
