We have learned that Judge
Stephen d. Ellis has a contest
on his hands for reelection as a
member Of the Court of Appeal
of this district. Though we are
not in his election district, we
cannot refrain from expressing
the hope that he will be success
full. He is the type of man that
should be retained on the bench
as long as he is willing to serve,-
combining as he does learning in
law and exalted character. In
Iberia he has made an envi-
able reputation as a jurist and
man and hence it is that we ex-
press the hope to see him re-
elected.
