Page, of the District Court, gave ex-

the same subject:

SIN our issue of last week we pub

become a candidate to succeed himself
as Circuit Judge, together with his re-
sponse thereto.
"The call was, with single eXcep-

constitutes not only a tlattering en-
dorsement of Judge Kirwan's long SER
vice on the bench but also an evidence
of the wisdom and high standing of the
Of the two counties.
cit is satisfying and reassuring in
dication of the soundness OF our insti
tutions when men of Judge kirwan's
type are retained in positions of trust;
and his three terms or the bench have
only served 10 convince us that it will
be to the great good of the county to
retain him for another term as An al.
ministrator Of justice.
''In his response Judge kirwan eX-
presses his appreciation OF the approv-
al and support of the attorneys signing
the cal IS and states that he wiz sub

date for reelection.
"The occasion offers the Chronicle a
pleasant opportunity 10 congratulate
not ouly Judge Kirwan and the bar Of
the county but the people of the coun-
ty as we'll, for the real beneficiary OF
an able judiciary is the community as
a whole. Judge Kirwans legal ability
his honesty, high professional stand

au incumbent with whose services we
cannot well dispense"

On every side one hears words eX-
pressive of appreciation of the action
of the bar OF Mantowoc and Sheboygan
counties in issuing the call for Judge

faction with'the acceptance of the call
by the Judge. Mr.. Kirwan enjoys the
full measure of public confidence.

as absolutely fair, able, honest and con-
scentio,s. For his character and abil-
iuies he is honored and respected. He
is the most distinguished citizen Of
Manitowoc, an honor to the city, the

j JEFFERSON ON POPULAR
GOV ERNM ENT.

Government degenerates when
trusted to the rulers of the people
alone. The people themselves, there
fore, are its only safe repositories,
And to render even them safe, their
minds must be improved to a certain
degree This, indeed, is not all that is
necessary, though it be essentially ne
cessary. An amendment of our consti-
tuition must here come in aid OF the
public education. The influence over
government must be shared among all
the people. If every individual which
compOses their mass partlci pates in
the ultimate authority, the government
will be safe; because the corrupting
the whole mass will exceed any private
resources of wealth; and public ones
cannot be provided but 10y levies on
the people. In this case every man
would have to pay his own price. The
government of Great Britain has been
corrupted, because but one man in ten
has u right TO vote for membeas of par
lament. The sellers of the govern.
ment, therefore, get nine-tenths of
their price clear. 1t has been thought
that corruption restrained by confirm
ing the right of suffrage to few O.
the wealthier of the people; but it
would be more etlectually restrained
by an extension of that right TO such
numbers as would bid defiance to the
means OF corruption.
