THURSDAY, MARCH 80, 1872.
FOR JUSTICE OF THE
SUPREME COURT.

At the Judicial election of April
4th, Justice of the Supreme Court
is to be chosen to succeed Justice
Burr w. Jones, appointed to fill va
cancy caused by the death of Chief
Justice John B. Winslow, whose
term of Office would have expired on
the first Monday of January, 1926.
Justice Jones is candidate for the
unexpired term of three and one-half
years. He stands as nen-partisan
candidate for the Office. His nomina
ton papers have been signed by the
leaders of all factions of the Repub-
lican and Democratic parties.
Both in regard to knowledge of
law and worth as man and citizen,
no person in Wisconsin stands higher
in the estimation of the people than
does Burr w. Jones. He is ,recog-
nized as one of the most energetic
and versified men on the bench. He
has wide experience in trial work,
ard in addition to this, he has been
professor of law at the University of
Wisconsin, for number of years. His
book, Zones on Evidence" is a
standard textbook with lawyers
throughout the United States.
Justice Jones is a man whom the
people of Wisconsin should delight
to honor by electing him to the high
office which he holds. In SO honor
ing him, they will honor themselves
and safeguard the courts of the State
His opponent is socialist of Mil
waukee. 1t is of the utmost import
ance that interest be taken in the
Judicial election, so that the return
of Justice Burr w. Jones to the
Supreme bench may be assured be-
yond a peradventure.

footing with bills contracted by the
allied governments for similar sery-

sent in without thought of obtaining
any privileges for the United States

endorsement for their maintenance is
a solemn moral and legal duty.

der which the reparations commission

They include perfect autonomy for
the Reichsbank and new legislation to

Will Receive Public Approval.

The decision of the state highway
commission to proceed with Wiscon-

received with public approval. The
commission perhaps has not gained
all it set out to get in the forcing of
cement price reduction, and the price
at which it has closed for the first

orable quotation.
