The unexpected usually happonr,.
lu tffe election for judge of the now
Judicial Circuit, Hon. Gedrgo. Wai-
ren, member rf the House from
Hampton county wa^ yesterday elci t-
t d judg“. ov< k .las. Peurifoy and
W. I!. C.ru’ier This « >oction was had
over the protest of Mr. War rep'and
the r-stathnu nt fi om him that ho
> ould siot accept if elected.
When the hintt^r fbr the eiectioi
of a judKe for the new eircuU came
v.p yeptenlay. Senator 'Padgett placed
i nomination the name of .las. K.
Peurifoy. This was sooomhatderTfep-
resentatives Smith and, VaYn. and
other seconds from other, members,
and it looked as if Mr v Peurifoy,
iWOUld he the- only candidate. Tie*
^llquse, it appeared, seemed, to think
Timt W. H. Gruber was to be the nev-
jitflgp and the announcemenf of Mr.
Peurifov's name was somewhat of a
surprise.
, Mr. Dantzler. of Or.fnE< burg, st^.rt-
"cd the haJ! rolling. He placedVn
nomination tl’e name e*' Hon- Gyorge
Warren, who immediately arose and
declined, thanking his friends for
the honor, hut, stating that he could
not allow his name to be used, and
that ho could not accept tho position,
and that he was a supporter of Mr.
Pejirifoy.
Mr. Sellers and Senator Earle then
•placed in nomination the name of
Mr. Gruber. After a- bit more dis
cussion th P ballotlag began, whlcji
resulted: George Warren, 07: .la«.
K. Peurifoy, 4!>; W. n. qruber, 30,-
W. R. Hiibba-rd/1. Mr. Hubbard
withdrew his name In favor of Mr.
Warren. '
Afti-r tjie announcement o r Hie
ballot, which showed-that Mr. War-
teii lacked only 7 ‘Votes of election,
he asked if h P might not make a o t •
sc nal . tatement. This was granted
and he again assured his friends and
'<ol1eague« jn th.e House of his very
great apnreoiatlon of the bieii hono.'
*hat had he^n shown him, hut that he
had, never anticipated nor expectel
any'position in connection witji the
new circuit. It was his expectation,
when the hill was passed.-tluit- M r -
Gruber would be elected, hut the H ir
of the various counties favored Mav
Pciiirifov. and he wished it under
stood,dliat he had endorsed th«? can
didacy.rff Mr. Peurifoy. and was sin-
' n re and earnest i.n that endorsement
He wished that the House would elw*
Mr. Peurifoy and thereby free him
of any embarrassment, and ho went
on to say that if elected he could not
serve-except at very gr^at personal
financial sacrifice, and that at Ids age
h,e had no desire for -the position,
even if-he had the anility. Ho w ished
the members to understand that ho
did no seek r.nv office .-rnd hoped
that he would m-t h" elected. Mr.
Liles then stated that he felt th t
Mr. \Va»-'o,, would mak 1 n patriotic
sacrifice if elected and balloting pro
ceeded’and the result was that Mr.
Georce Warren was elected Judge of
the r. *\v judicial circuit. The hallot
stood. George Warren 81: J. E.
Peurifoy. 46; W. B. Gruber. 21.
Tho newly elected judge last
night addressed a communication to
the Senate and House again declin
ing to accept the judgeship, and it
it is understood today mat the- next
election "will take pla<*e Thursday.
Mr. Gruber this morning received
n telegram from a member- of the
House asking If bVwould accept the
judgeship if tendered him. stating
that tVre'-was a demand for bim to
be judge. Mr. Gruber relied that he
- ould accept If the position were of
fered him, but that-he was not a
candidate for the position.
Several of Mr. Peurifoy’s friend^
nre In Polumhi& In ly* interest, anfc
the ojifrome of the election tomor
row, will he awaited with much In-
by the friends of both parties
In the circuit.
