JUDGE FIsk's LETTER.

In his letter anent the suggestion
hat he might he a candidate for the
United States senate Judge c. j. Fisk
declares that he "never was. is not
Saow, and never expects to be a can
sitdate for the senate, and further
more, so long as he occupies a iudic-
al office he will not consent to be-
some a candidate for his or any other
political Office
4 That statement is like what would
be expected of Judge Fisk, clear,
straightforward and t o the point. 1t
leaves no possible doubt of his posi-
don, and the man who reads that let
Ter may regard the subject Of Judge
Ffsk's candidacy as settled.
The second part of the sentence
above quoted merits special consid-
sration. The judge declares hat he
will not consent to become a candi-
late for any political office while he
aolds a judicial position. There is
no quibbling over what is constitution
nj and what is not. The question of
he eligibility of a North Dakota Judge
FOR the United States senate, in view
" the constitutional provision which
rohibits judges from election or ap-
eointment to other than judicial Of
Ices. has been discussed at various
times, and. in view of the fact that
he senate Is a national. rather than
. state position, has been urged as a
reason why. the constitutional prohi-
s54tton does not govern in this case.
fudge Fisk does not go into this at
III. He cares nothing about 1t. He
has his own conception Of what is 1T
ing; and he is governed by that Like
fudge Hughes. Of the federal supreme
court. he evidently entertains too high
IN opinion of the judicial office to
Soern1it 1t to be made the stepping
seone in a political career.
If Judge Fisk were a private citi-
sen there would be no reason why he
ihould not be a candidate for the gen.
ate II he desired. and no reason why
ne would not make a good senator IL
ne were fortunate enough to be elect
ia. But he has been placed in an Of
Ice which carries with 1t. certain obi.
cations. and he Is not the man to dis.
regard any Of those obligations.
