candidates.
Call of the Milwaukee Lawyers.
To the Honorable Walter D. Corrigan:
The Honorable W. H. Timlin has
withdrawn as candidate for re-elec-
ton for the office of Justice of the Su-
preme Court We believe that the high
standard Of this Court should be main
tanned by the election to this position
Of a lawyer Of great legal learning
and attainments, and of sterling char
acter and integrity. We recognize
that you possess these necessary
qualifications, and that if elected you
would make a worthy successor to
your distinguished predecessor. There
fore, we, the undersigned, members of
the Milwaukee County Bar, do hereby
urge you to announce your candidacy
pledging you our earnest support, CO.

Mr.. Corrigan's Acceptance.
Gentlemen:
You have informed me that you
have been commissioned to present
the call soliciting me to become a can
didate to succeed Justice w. H. Timlin
of Milwaukee, as Justice Of the Su-
preme Court.
1t has been my prayer and the pray
er Of all the friends and admirers of
Judge Timlin that he might continue
to give to his state the service of his
great intellect and the benefit of his
ripened and extraordinary wisdom.
His loss from the bench cannot be fill
ed by anyone, for Wisconsin has no
son to call to service the equal of this
just, noble and intellectual man.
A place on the Supreme Court bench
offers to one, fitted to fill it, the great
est opportunity for useful public ser
vice. I regard it as the greatest office
within the gift ofthe people ofthis
commonwealth.
Ny ambition has beento gain hon
orable standing in my profession, and
render patriotic service to my State
anu -caCSOIuIlIS saw GilC
right, and to live a life Of usefulness
to humanity generally, and especially
to those l love.
Called as I have been, by the express
sion of sentiment from Milwaukee
County (the home of Justice Timlin
and my home as well) and compelled
by the extent and character of that
call, to believe that it is sincere and
genuine and full OF promise Of gener-
al sanction and support, I regard it
as my duty to become candidate.
The campaign should be clean and
free from charges or countercharges.
A judicial election should never be the
football of politics.
If [ am elected under such circum-
stances | can and will serve, and will
