sesses high qualities OF citizenship. In
him are combined all the essential
qualifications for this important pub
lie Office. and | believe his norlina-
ton would be an ideal one
Il am sure no other Republican in
West Virginia would poll more votes

higher tribute could h. paid one VINO

support OF those who practiCed before
him. n there were any weaknesses in
the judicial training OF Judge Robin
son in the past eight years. certainly
they would have been discovered be-
fore this time.
Judge Robinson Is in the prime or
life. lie has been splendidly trained
Tor public service; Is thoroughly ac-
quainted with the business and com
mercial interests of the state. and -
perhaps as well known TO it's citizen
ship as any other man in the State.
AS judge. he has had TO pass upon

Il have no doubt that Judge Robin
