McNrLrY HoBBLEp.

Papers in the Second district are
taking a great deal of interest in a
question that has been raised as to
the eligibility of Judge Frank McNul-
ty OF the circuit court as q candidate
for congress. McNulty announced his
candidacy on the same day that
Burke made public his retirement.
and almost simultaneously with the
announcement of Acknowledgement
Royal Johnson for the same office.
shortly afterward, attention was
called to the following provision Of
the state constitution.
mo judge of the supreme or cir
cult courts shall be elected to any
other than a, judicial office, or be
eligible thereto, during the term for
which he was elected such judge. All
votes for either of them during such
term for any elective office, except
that OF judge of the supreme court,
circuit court or county court, given
by the legislature or the people. shall
be void
Judge McNulty announced that he
viii resign as judge and it is under
! stood that he considers that this re
moves his disability 10 seek the Of
flee.
On the other hand, Judge Carl
Sherwood has announced that he can
not be a candidate for this office, by
reason Of the fact that he is barred
| by the state constitution.
by far the most vigorous defender
Of McNnlty's candidacy is the Aber
deem News, which takes the view
that, ono McNulty resigns. he is free
| to seek any office he may desire.
IT would appear from the constitu
ton, however, that it's authors want
ed to make ii impossible for an.
judge to s his office for any poll
tical advantage. Provisions of thi
kind ought to be construed broadly
Surely Judge McNulty's announce
ment makes him II candidate TO
other than a judicial office. The cor
stitntion says that no judge shall b
elected to any other than y ludicia
Office during the term for which II
was elected snch Judge" Resignatio
cannot alter tho term for which NJ
Nallty was elected Judge, and it is i
i, that term that the constitution say
lie shall not seek amy other kind {
IN office.
II Any how, Judge McNulty. in vie
Of the responsible position he occ,
pics. and the exalted position
which he aspires. ought to 81,
the benefit OF the doubt to the col
stitntion. AS q. matter of public mo
ais, McNulty ought to be barred fro
