said to have only fairly begun to feel
the presence OF the problems which
have vexed the judicial tribunals OF
the nation and OF various States dur,
ing a somewhat prolonged period
New questions growing out of new
relations are passing for solution.
Our judges too are likely to be call
ed upon to take position regarding
veXatious public problems similar to
those which have arisen elsewhere.
There is such a thing as legislation
by the Interpretation laws. and il has
already been demonstrated that
courts may stand in the way of pro,
gress with reference to both social
justice and public service.
Cases have been known in which
judges with previous corporate affilia.
tons have consciously or otherwise
helped TO defeat progressive meas
ures through interminable delay in
the name of deliberation All that
should end
Vermont people will not choose to
tumble over themselves in any radi-
cal wild goose chase after progress.
Neither will they desire to become
stationary with reference to progres-
sive ideas. We believe the people as
a whole would choose the middle
course. Vermont stands for conserva
tive progress and our government in,
all its branches should reflect that
spirit of progress.
As between two men possessed of
the same legal qualifications and Judi.
cial balance and temperament the
Governor would manifestly be sustain
ed by the great mass of the people
in selecting the one who would help
put more ginger into the conduct of
our cases in court with consequent
saving of time and who would keel,
pace with the people in the relations
growing out of public service legis
lation.
Age should not be the determining
factor for one man may be as old at
sixty-five as another is at seventy-five
or eighty. On the other hand

liiications, personal and public. such
as we have described and Others

any other unimportant consideration

of argument, advanced even before
Jugde Rowell's formal letter of resig-
nation, in favor of passing over the
Judge whose seniority would entiue
him by precedent to selection by the
Governor to fill the vacancy in ques-
ton.
If precedent is to be broken in re-
spouse to the appeals of the friends
of one possible appointee. then man,
testify the Governor would be justin-
ed in acting on the suggestion Of The
Bennington Banner and select The
man whom he deems best fitted for
the place. The friends of any Judge
who have urged the breaking OF pro
cedent certainly would be barred
from any complaint, If the Governor
were to act on that suggestion by ap
pointing another.
When the Governor appoints one
Of the present associate justices to
the position of chief justice as would
manifestly be advisable then he
must also appoint an additional as
sociate justice. and if he promotes
one of the superior judges TO the SUI
preme bench. he must also appoint
an additional superior Judge. the
change in effect involving three APP
pointments, including at least one
new judge without previous expert
encc.
The question which will confront
the Governor and the one which in
cur estimation should guide him a.
solutely in all three selections. is
which will be the best man for the
position. all things considered?"
Consideration of this test involves
number of factors. What. II any.
are the grievances of the people with
reference to our courts at the pres
ent time to be overcome? What
weaknesses are to be remedied
What new conditions. If any. are to
be met?
One OF the arrangements brought
against our courts at the present
time is undue prolongation of trials.

consequent marked increase Of court

lawyers ran the courts instead OF the

cannot be denied that the expenses
OF our courts have increased to a
marked degree in the past quarter OF
a century. and without satisfactory
increase in important results. Il will
be noted that consideration Of this
factor is above and beyond mere per.

strict sense.
