we have reason to believe it so-the
appointment made for this district
sometime ago when the additional
iudeeship was created, came without
endorsement from the Attorney-G Gen
eral. That is not in disparagement of
the ability of the lamented Judge
Lambdin. Still, it is conclusive that
our system bears palpable handicaps.
An appointment in the army and navy
usually comes after consideration of
these respective departments.
Announcement has been made by
Judge z. A. Littlejohn, of this city,
that he will not file an application for
the appointment to the vacancy now
existing. In the political parlors
where the judgeship proposals are TAX
Jig place, Judge Littlejohn is not at
home His ability is unquestioned;
still the political maneuvers essential
to success in the race for the position
would not be sanctioned by Judge Lit
tlejohn.
Judgeships are not political offices,
and although ITO the victor belongs the
spoils," there should be no spells in
the judiciary.
