An Official Worthy
Of Reelection

Hon. &. G. Magruder. who has
served az Clerk Of the Court of APP
peals for several years, il again a
candidate for denomination by the
Democratic Party, and il is with
great pleasure that the News endor-
ses the candidacy Of Mr.. Magruder
TO this very high and Responsible
position. In endorsing a Democrat
for reelection who has held his
Office for more than one term, the
News recognizes that it il doing an
unpopular thing on general princi-
Piles at the present time, because
there seems TO be a disposition on
the part of the voters TO have new
faces for the coming Democratic
fight. In this case, however, we
feel justified in saying that Mr..
Magrudes is occupying what might
be termed a judicial or semi judicial
position. aud one which should be
divorced entirely from politics or
political consideration.
As Clerk of the Court of Appeals
the encumbent stands az the right
hand man of the highest tribunal OF
Justice we have in Maryland, and it
takes a man of high order and abil-
ity TO fill the position properly. In
Magruder we have such a man, and
it is our belief that politics or long
tenure of Office should have no effect
in removing an efficient officer from
this position and taking the chances
of the election of an untried man.
Mr.. Magruder comes from Southern
Maryland, and il has been generally
acknowledged that this section OF
the State should have one of the
State offices, and as there seem to be
no objection to Mr.. Magruder with
in the Democratic Party for reEomi-
nation, we see no reason why the
Party managers should look around
for another man to take his place.
He certainly has made an efficient
officer and has given entire satisfac-
ton 70 the Court Of Appeals, and il
is understood that many of the
judges are extremely anxious TO see
him re-nominated and reelected.
IL the nominee for Governor
should come from Baltimore City,
the Attorney-Gene from the
Western Shore, the Comptroller
from the Eastern Shore, and the
Clerk of the Court of Appeals from
Southern Maryland, it would appear
that the Democratic ticket would be
very we'll balanced, and we feel sure
that Mr.. Magruder would .give as
much strength to his end of the
nomination as will any of the other
three candidates to be selected for
the other places on the ticket
Wicomico News.
This SO nearly expresses the SEN
timents of the BEACON that il is
reproduced word for word.
