W. L. MoDONA1). ~BIOS
THE etpublican party is for protec
tection, there Is no mistake about its
attitude. '4:he Democratic party grins
free trade and winks protection. And
11 t.e meantime sensible,-men know
that thestarif' laws, unjust though they
are acknowledged to be, will never be
repealed until the issuo is squarely
made.
IF the New York Star can't find
something a good deal meaner to say
about Blaine than that he is like John
Adams, the Star,. for the good of the
Democracy, had - better "let up" on
the man from Maine. To.be like John
Adams in any partioular is to be
worthy of the Presidency. John
Adams was the greatest-man of the
Revolutionary period, his patriotism,
his eloquence, his superior wisdom,
shaped the policy that made the Re
public.
Probate Judge.
There is now pending before the
Legislature a bill to make the office of
Probate Judge of Fairfield county a
salaried one, and there are many rea
sons why it ought to become a law.
The bill, if we are correctly in
farmed, proposes to pay to the Pro
bate Judge a salary of seven hundred
dollars in lieu of the fees which are
now provided by law, and which ho is
required by this bill to pay over to the
county treasurer.
The Probate Judge is a judicial offi
cer, and for this reason alone his coin
ponsation ought not to depend on the
quantity of litigation that is had in
his Court.
We sincerely hope that our Senator
and Representa'tives will spare no
effort to have this bill made a law.
Fox Comptrolttler General.
Comptroller General Stoney has re
signed, and the duty of electing his
successor is now devolved upon the
Legislature. Mr. Stoney was chosen
to this office, not on account of politi
cal prominence, but on account of his
personal v-orth and fitness, and he has
given um versal satisfaction. Ills
resignation will be regretted.
We would respectfully present to
the Legislature, as a suitable person to
be elected to the office of Comptroller
General, the name of a citizen of this
conimunity 'who is in every respect
orthy to succeed Mr. Stoney. Like
r. Stoney lie is no politician; like
r. Stoney he possesses the verf
1' .. .qmtaliiesland igapacities. -Which are, der
manded by the arduous and importan4
uties of the mfiic of Comptroller
eneral. HIe is a man of retiring dis
osition, iucorruptable integrity, un
tiring industry and splendid ability.
.lHe is eminently qualified in all re
spects to discharge the duties of the
officee. WYe refer'to our present and
most offlcient County Auditor, Capt.
isaac N. Withers.
We would insist, also, that the elec
tion of Capt. Withers would be entire
ly consistent with the principles of
civil service reform. Capt. Stoney's
successor ought' to be chosoen f'om
among the auditors. The Comptroller
General stands in the same relation to
the State Treasurer that the auditor
does to the county treasurer. Thme
experience in the one prepares the
incumbent for the duties of the other.
Capt. Withers was a gallant and is a
disabled Confederate soldier. HIe
ought to be elected, and if ho should
be, he will give such general satisfac
tiona that lie will be re-elected more
than once.
A joint resolution is nlow pending
before the Legislature to amend Arti
cle WV of the Constitution relating to
the judiciary.
The amendment proposed vests the
judicial power in the State in a Court
of Errors, a Supreme t. ourt, two Cir
cuit Cottrts, to wit, a Court of Comn
moii .Pleas having civil jurisiction
and a Court of General Sessions hav
ing criminal jurisdiction, a Probate
Court, and other inferior courts.
It is a little hard to discernt just
what the Legislature is driving at; we
have more courts neow tihan we have
litigation, and the inference. that -the
plan proposed in this jolint resolution
furnishes a more perfect scheme for
the administration of justice than our
present system, is one which we do
not feel justified in drawing. The
amendment strikes us as a first-rate
scheme by which to prolong litigation
to the end of time. The Court of
Errors is to consist of the Chief Jue
tice'and Judges of the Supreme Court
and all the Circuit Judges. The Su
preme Court is to consist of a Chief
Justice and two Circuit Judges, who
shall be assigned by the Chief Justice
in regular succession to servo on suoh
Court- for twelve months.
Amorig the many dbfects in this&
elaborate system raay be mentioned
that which permits the trial judge in
the Circuit Court to uit-in the Court of
Errors to try the truth of his own
conclusion. This is exacting a little
(oo qtpeh of the vaity of ordinary
men. There needn't be any doubt as'
to the position which this Judgp will
take in tho'Conutt f 'orst. le will
bieconi# "of,ognsel" for the respoui
dent.
There are many- objections to this
propoaed .amendm nt 1 ' ~ l obl
sowo . of a dourt in bauo, ant is
sp+hing ,)ke forty years bohtnt the
rogressi foo unce.
-,bill has bgn k troducod in tke
Lesislature by:tCo. MoKisslck, of
Union, to make the transcript of the
stenographer's notes final as to the tes
timony, rulings and charge - of the
Judge in all cases tried in the Courts
of Common Pleas and General Ses
sions of this State. The bill has been
Fopo,rted unfavorably, but it ought to
pass notwithstanding.
The stenographer ought to be fully
competent, or the office should be per.
mitted to remain vacant. But when
the office is filled by one thoroughly
capable of attending to its duties, then
his notes may assuredly be trusted
farther than the memory of the Judge.
Any one may see on a monon'L's
reflection that the practice of permit
ting a Judge to settle a "case" embody
ing his oWn errors inust be very unsat-- p
is factory. And of course any Judge o
of refined moral porceptioner would be C=
only too glad to be relieved of such a o
task. The Judge, under such orcum- 5
stances, must have something of the
same feeling of uneasiness that makes C
it uncomfortable for him to try his .
own case. And, then, too, the Judges
are mon, and all men are moro or less r
touched with the infirmities of human
nature. It is only now and then at i
best that one may be found high
enough to be above the weakness of
doctoring his own blunders. -i
The Judge has the appointIng of the J
stenographer. This is a pretty good
guarantee that he will be competent. _
Naturally he will be impartial and
free from imputations which are cer- r
tain to be levoled at the Judge, evcn
when he duoes his best. r
Therefore, we say, let him settle the I
"case." He may not be able to do it
with absolute perfection, but he is at
all events better fitted for it than the
Judge.
Is Consumption Ineurable? I
Read the following: Mr. 0. II. Morris,
Newark, Ark., says: "Was down with
Abscess of Lungs, and friends and physi
clans pronounced me an Incurable Con-J
sumptive. Began taking Dr. King's New h
Discovery for Consumption, am now on
my third bottle, and able to oversee the d
work on my farm. It is the finest medicine d
ever made. ' fi
Jesse Middlewart, Decatur, Ohio, says: T
"Had it not been for Dr. King's New a
Discovery for Consumption I would have g
died of Lung Troubles. Was given up by
doctors. Am now in best of health."
