MAY NAME DAILY
CIRCUIT COURT
JUDGE TONIGHT
Governor Silzer Expected to
Make His Appointments in
Trenton Tonight
BENCH NOW VACANT
See John P. Kirkpatrick as
Next MiddIesex County
Court Judge

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. "a
Governor Silzer is expected to an
nounce tonight his appointments of
a. Tircuit court judge to fill the vac
ar by existing as the result OF his
resignation last fall, County Court
Judge Peter T. DAILY, of Middlesex.
being the man who will likely be Sc
lected for this high position. It IS
also expected that former surrogate,
John p. Kirkpatrick, of Jamesburg,
will be made county court judge OF
Middlesex to succeed Judge Daily.
Owing to the congestion in the
ssrcuit court, comprising the coun-
b of Passaic, Somerset, Sussex I'M
IN and Warren, resulting from the
lack of circuit court judge in that
district, Governor Silzer Is expected
to act at once to fill this vacancy
Circuit court cases have been ac-
cumulating in the district formerly
presided over by Governor Silzer
since his resignation as judge and
the need of a judge to take office
at once is said to be important.
The position of circuit court judge
rays $4,000 per year, the appoint
ntent being for term of seven years.
1t is seldom that a circuit court
Judge is removed by the governor
at the end of his term unless the
Judge desires to leave this office.
The position of circuit court judge
IS looked upon as one of the fnost
lucrative appointments in the state.
The salary of the county judge is
1880 per year, the appointment
being for term of five years. AL
though John A. Coan, of South AM
BOY. was mentioned as possible sue
cessor to Judge Daily, it now ap-
pears as though Mr.. Kirkpatrick will
be chosen by Governor Silzer for this
important post. County Democratic
leaders have been active in further
ing the cause of both Judge Daily
and Mr.. kirkpatrick and there now
seems little doubt as to their being
named.
There has been some gossip in the
county seat over the weekend or
opposition by some to the appoint
ment of Judge Daily, but it is not
thought this sentiment will be strong
enough to cause the governor to Sc
lect any man other than the present
county judge for the position of cir
cult court judge.

Lobby Crowds Out Lawmakers
It has been said that fewer legisla-
tive members were able to obtain
quarters in the hotels in the Capital
city for this session than for any 9th
er session in the history of the state
due to the fact that the great horde
of representatives Of corporations in
Butte and other cities, had reserved
more quarters in the hotels than has
been usual in the past.
Interests Have Offices Down Town
Not only have the representatives Of
these corporations established con-
venient and well equipped quarters in
the hotels, but they also are known to
have set up business Office quarters
in the down town blocks, and when
the people from over the state come
