The Irish standard., 1914-10-31

ago. by appointment of the Governor,
to fill vacancy, and has proven him
self to be one of the most able and
efficient men that ever has occupied
seat in that high court.
I am very anxious that Judge
Bunn's qualifications for the position
of Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court shall be laid before your read
ers to the end that they may vote in
diligently.
Judge Bum was member of the
District Bench at st. Paul for many
years and was promoted to the Su-
preme Bench. During his judicial
service, he has shown himself a jur-
list Of great learning and ability, an
Industrious worker and eminently
fitted and qualified for the important
work coming before the highest tri-
bunal of the state.
He is endorsed for reelection by
practically all of the lawyers of the
state and is entitled to the votes of
all those who believe in rewarding
faithful service by public servants.
And in passing, you will notice
from the enclosed A. P. A. circular
that Judge Bunn's opponent, Albert
johnson. is endorsed and recon-
mended for election by that scound-
reilly organization.
Judge Steele, Molyneaux and Fish
are we'll known generally as able,
efficient conscientious Judge
Their services on the Bench has been
eminently satisfactory.
Lawyers, of all men coming in
daily contact with Judges, ought to
be best qualified to determine their
fitness.
At a recent secret bar primary,
the three Judges mentioned received
practically two votes to one received
by their opponents.
They are on the Bench, they have
been for years, their services are
satisfactory and nobody wants them
to leave the Bench, except some gen.
tlemen who think that they would
like to preside there themselves,
which, it is submitted, is a very poor
reason for unseating men against
whom there is no complaint.
Judge Steele and I as children
went to school together. have
known Judges Fish and Molyneaux
for about twenty-eight years.
They are men of the highest stand
ing and in every way qualified for
the positions they hold, and in my
judgment ought to be reelected
without any question.
Referring again to the enclosed A.
P. A. circular, you will notice that
that organization endorses and ap-
proves Of the candidacy of w. B. An
derson and Frank Healey, two of
the gentlemen who are seeking to
send two of the three Judges above
mentioned into private life.
In the 34th Legislative District, in
which l reside, and which includes
the 9Th Ward, there are four candi-
dates for the Legislature, two to be
elected.
AS you will see again by reference
to the enclosed circular, Gordon T..
Bright and Charles F. Reyes are en-
dorsed by this A. P. A. organization
and for the company they keep and
the birds with which they flock,
ought to be buried out of sight.
L. A. Lydiard and John M. Har-
rison are both keen, upright bust
ness men. eminently qualified to re-
present any district in the Legisla-
ture and Mr.. Lydiard for the last
two terms has performed that duty
very eIuc1enLly.
OF the six men that I have men,
toned here, five are in the law bust
ness. either as lawyers or Judges, and
that is my profession, and therefore
think that I am qualified, having as
ISOLATED with these gentlemen for
over quarter of century. to speak
intelligently on their fitness for pub
lie office, and have done so in hope
that it may be of benefit to voters
who have confidence in my judgment
but who are not acquainted with the
qualifications of these gentlemen.
