Courts and Politics

Judges of Mnnesotas courts have been elected
in the past without party designation in order to
eliminate political control In the past this method
accepted by all political parties step toward
better government. and this method not ques-
toned. However, recently the Farmer-Labor party
has endorsed two judges and although they will ap-
pear the ballot without party designation, elect
ed will be under obligation to political party, and
will be duty bound to give heed to that parys wish
es. Endorsements although they may be made for
good men, defeat the purpose of the wishes of the
people namely that of keeping the courts out of pol

brought forth considerable controversy and, hence

expediency to control the courts but do not be-
lieve the people of Minnesota will be fooled.
