JUSTICE FLOYD 4. THOMPSON.
With the adjournment Of the |
February term Of the Illinois So
preme court today came the an
nouncement Of Justice Floyd Z.
Thompson OF Rock Island that he
will be candidate for reelection
to the supreme court at the cleo
ton to be held in the Fourth Judi
c.al district in June. Justice Thomp-
son was nominated Feb. Is. 1919,
and was elected at q special cleo
ton April l, 1919, to fill the vacan-
cy caused by the resignation OF
Justice George A. Cooke. He was
then 81 years old and had had no
previous judicial experience. A
great many cases had accumulat-
ed by assignment to the Fourth
district between the time OF the
resignation of Justice Cooke and
the election Of Justice Thompson.
These cases together with those
that have been regularly assigned
to the district since his election
have all been written and there are
now No cases assigned to the
Fourth district in which opinions
have not been filed. During his two
years, service Justice Thompson
| has written 142 opinions. He was
the author OF II opinions that were
filed yesterday. Justice Thompson
issued the following statement with
his announcements.
1.-TWO years ago this week was
nominated as one Of the candidates
for Justice of the supreme court
and six weeks later l was honored
by election. Twice before the
people of Rock Island county had
elected me states attorney and to
their loyalty l owe the opportun-
ftyyto serve my state on its highest
court. The privilege Of serving my
fellow citizens in that capacity at
SO early an age exceeded my high
4 est ambitions. / am deeply CRATE
full to the people Of this county 1or
the great honor they have done me
and l have tried to show my ap-
probation of their support by rem
dering honest service in whatever
capacity they have called me to
serve. Whether / am given further
opportunity to serve my state on
the supreme court rests with the
voters of the Fourth judicial dis
trict, and especially with the vot-
ers of my home county, where they
know me best. Whatever the YER
dict in the coming election, shall
never forget the honor my fellow
citizens have already done me. MY
term of service on the supreme
court has been brief, but l hope
my record has been such that thu
voters Of my district will give M
the opportunity of continuing IL
the work in which have found 81
much pleasure. There is nothing
in the character Of the work to ex
cite the enthusiastic admiration c
the populace. 1t consists of patien

be requested to submit an amendment
Ito the Constitution permitting the
State Superintendent of Public lnstruc-
ton to be appointed or elected for a
term of years with power to succeed
himself"
In 1914 it was pointed out BY the
legislative committee that nine OF
the fifteen recommendation of last
year were endorsed by the General AS
sembly of 1914" Section Of the reso-
lutions recommended that the legis-
lature be requested to submit an
amendment to the Constitution per-
hitting ID State Superintendent of
Public instruction to be appointed or
elected with power to succeed him
self"
In 1919, the resolutions committee
submitted the following: I'VE favor
the amendment to the Constitution by
which State Superintendent can be
selected by the people or by pro-
| fessional board of education" AT the
same meeting the legislative commit
tee offered the following recommends
ton: For the purpose of opening the
way for a better method of selecting
State Superintendent, We favor an
amendment to the State Constitution
striking out Superintendent of Public
instruction from Section 1885 of
the Constitution" Exactly what is
now proposed)
IL will thus be seen that thees pro-
posed amendments are not the result
of some immature, partisan, spasmod-
ic brain-storm. The fundamental prin-
ciples involved have been recognized
for a generation, an dboth amend
ments have been sought by Kentucky
school people and other forward look
ing citizens for at least a decade.
As the Kentucky Educational Asso-
citation is no more partisan body
than any church, lodge, social or civic
organization in the state the history
quoted above disproves the statement
that the proposed amendments are in
any seense partisan measures. But let
us proceed another step.
During the last gubernatorial cam
paign both political parties and both
candidates for governor advocated
and pledged themselves to state
wide educational survey" Both par
ties supported this measure in the
legislature. The Survey" has been
made by some of the most eminent
educators and experts in the country

and Republicans) declare our future

bodies throughout the state-without
regard to sect or creed. This recital
of facts should convince the most
skeptical of the non-partisan nature
of this movement.
1t is hoped that Kentuckians will
be broad enough and big enough to
rise above narrow partisan spirit and
to cast a vote for this progressive,
constructive, educational program.
