ed and elected will, no doubt
make a very satisfactory Judge
Judge Robert F.. Walker has
served twelve years as a Judge
of Division No. 2. He was far
merly attorney general, and is
a seasoned jurist. His nominal
ton and election would go far
in sustaining the high standing
of our supreme court.
John 7. White, like Judge
Ragland, is also a commissioner
of the Supreme Court. He has
been writing opinions in Divis-
ion Nc. 2 for a number Of years.
Judge White halls from Spring
field, and his numerous opinions
are terse and to the point, and
show much research and depth
of learning.
ut occure to us that the voter
who is in doubt and hasn't for
himself made a study as to the
fitness of the various candidates
who seek nomination for the Of
flee of Judge of the Supreme
Court, might well give heed to
the endorsement that has been
voted by the Democrat lawyers
of the st. Louis Bar Association
and vote for Judge Ragland for
the nomination for Judge of Di-
vision No. /, and vote for Judg-
es Walker and White for the
nomination for Judge Of Divis-
ion No. g."

cite County Bar Association are

OIL h1NlE NOOh1 JODUEO
However careful and consci-
entious the average voter may
be in casting his ballot for a
candidate for judge of the SUI
preme court, there is no gain
saying the fact that he is pref
ty much in the dark and has to
adopt a hit or miss policy. He
may vote for a man of unpeach-
able character wholly untitled
for a iudgeship unless he verifes
his conclusions through the nat
ural medium-the members of
the candidates own profession.
Lawyers, and we speak of the
better element among them, are
first to discover and denounce
incompetency and rascality in
judges of our courts. So it is but
natural in seeking the facts to
consult with members of the
profession if one would vote in
diligently in the matter of
j~udgeships. In the coming pri-
mary each party will nominate
three candidates for the office
of Judge of the Supreme Court.
One cadidate will be nominated
for Division No. l (the Civil Di-
vision and two judges will be
nominated in Division No. 2
(the Criminal Division).
In this connection and for con-
sideration of the voters the fol-
lowing is copied from the Mont
gomery Herald:
Numerous candidates have.
filed for the nomination in both
of these divisions. The average
layman has little opportunity to
for an intelligent opinion as to
which of the candidates are
best suited for these nomina-
lions.
Recently the Bar Association
of the City of st. Louis, whose
membership consists of practi-
cally all of the lawyers in the
City of st. Louis of any stand
ing, took a private poll, or vote,
as to which three of the numer-
GUS candidates were most ac-
ceptable to the lawyers of St.
Louis. The Democratic lawyers
expressed their choice and the
Republican lawyers likewise ex-
pressed theirs.
According to the official an
nouncement made by the Presi-
dent of the Bar Association a
majority of the Democratic law
yers have endorsed the candida
.cy of William T. Ragland as the
candidate for Division No. /, and
have endorsed the candidacy of
Judge Robert F. Walker and
John I. White for Division No.
z.
William 7. Ragland, who has
been thus endorsed was former
ly Judge of the Circuit Court Of
the circuit which includes Mon
roe county. He halls from Paris
and for a number of years has
been one of the Commissioners
of Division No. l. Judge Rag

NATIONAL LEGISLATION

Not a great deal of legislation was
passed by the Republican congress
during the last two months of Presi-
dent Wilson's administration. The
President vetoed the bill to revive the
War Finance corporation on January
2. and congress promptly repassed 1t.
On January u, $7,10O,O0O was appro-
priated for enforcement of prohibition.
The house decided, on January 10, that
Its membership should not be In
creased. After much debate congress
set the limit Of the regular army at
175,00O men. Mr.. Wilson vetoed the
measure, but it was passed over his
veto. On February 20 the President
signed the Winslow bill, making avail
able to the railroads $4,000 900 from
the government guarantee fund.
President Harding called congress
in extra session on April IL and nearly
all the rest of the year it was busy
with the task of redeeming the pledges
of the Republican party, with what
success must be left to individual
Judgment. Among the first bills passed
were emergency tariff and lmmigra-
tion acts; new army bill cutting the
army down to 10000; and the budget
bill. On April 80 the senate adopted
resolution declaring the war with
Germany and Austria at an end; on
June 13 the house adopted a resolu-
ton of similar purport, and the meas
ure was finally passed on July l and
signed the next day by President
Harding. Repeated efforts to pass
soldiers bonus bill. came to naught
but soldiers relief bureau was Gre
ated on August 2 and Col. c. r. Forbes
was made its director. The house
passed both a tax revision bill and a
tariff bill, but the senate did not get
around to the latter. The tax meas.
ure was enacted into law on Novem-
ber 81.
Among other important measures
passed were bill to exempt American
coastwise shipping from payment of
Panama canal tolls; bill for govern.
ment regulation of the packing indus
try; the $4s,5O0,00O shipping board
deficiency bin; the billon-dollar farm
exports credit bill and various meas.
ures relating to enforcement of the
prohibition amendment, Including ono
forbidding the manufacture and sale
of beer as medicine.
The extra session came to an end
on November %. and on December &
congress met for the regular session.
