NO EASY TASK
FOR THE MAYOR
Correcting Cops examina-
tion Papers Some W

An idea of the trials and tribula
tions encountered by Mayor Garrett
son in marking examination papers
of applicants for position on the
police force may be CLEANED from re-
plies to questions which follow. Many
of the answers could not be read, or
some more amusing might have oeen
secured for publication.
In reply to the question to name
three prominent city officials, n
applicant wrote, "Calben, Hartman
and Libeck." He evidently meant
Patrolmen Calvin, Hartmann and
Lybeck.
In answer to a question to name
three departments of the city gov
eminent, another replied, THE South
Amboy bridge, city hall and the
ferryhouse."
When one was asked where the
section commonly known as "Buda-
pest was located, he replied, Back
of the summer terry"
In answer to the question to give
the boundaries Of Perth Amboy, n
replied, "'curbstones." In naming
the city clerk one wrote "Lau-ro."
In reply to a question n appli-
cant said there were five wards in
the city, and when he was asked to
give their locations he mentioned
wards one, four and six only.
When one applicant answered a
question as to the duties of a patrol
man he wrote. "parel de bit and reng
the clok." This was evidently meant
for patrol the beat and ring the
clock"
Mayor G%arretson expects to have
the task of reviewing the papers
completed in about two weeks.

Appointing a Judge

While a political party is making
the recall of judges one of its cardl-
nal principles, We have had repeated
occasion to direct attention to Yer
mont's system of the reelection of
judges every two years as one which
makes any other form of recall UNI
necessary. If any serious defect or
weakness is found in any judge, il is
entirely feasible to secure a substi-
two years term.
At the same time we must all rec
ognize the possibility of falling into
a rut in the selection of judges the
same as in any other direction in
government and as in business anu
professional work.
Our system has been forced to
contend with two defects, or the pos
sibility of two defects One has
been the tendency of the Legisla-
ture to fill vacancies on the supreme
bench from its own membership, in
preference to any outsider regardless
of the question of comparative abil-
ity. The other has been the dis
position OF some oil our governors 10
appoint judges with reference 10 pO-
litical availability as well as legal
attainments. We have had able and
creditable judges selected in both
ways. and we have also had unsati-
factory judges elected by the Legis-
lature as well as appointed by gov
ernor.
We have fallen into the habit o..
considering a Judge as good as Sc
lected for life. once chosen. no mac
ter how serious may be his weak
nesses. We have also followed the
rule Of seniority to a marked degree.
so that no matter what may be the
dement's Of a judge. or his advanc-
cd age, he gradually advances to-
ward the position OF head of the SUI
preme Court of Vermont.
That age is being considered more
than formerly is shown by the use
