Show A LITTLE PECULIAR judge anderson of the second district dietrict of 0 this territory either has ft a peculiar idea of the fitness of things or else ho he goes through a glass differently from other people we venture the assert assertion ion that not more than one person in a dozen if there should chanco chance to bo be so go creat great a proportion who read the proceedings edinga before hia his honor in the case of ferguson vs alien allen having in view the determination of the title to the clerkship of salt lake county believes that alien allen was elected of ferguson defeated and this they thet believe not because of an inclination so to do but simply because the evidence as laid before the court suggests such a conclusion and none other to them this is why we say the judge has a peculiarity in that respect and we might add in some others the celebrated case in which judge fudge anderson Ander eoa sat forsea for several days last list winter and the outcome of which was presumably a gain of several hundred votes for the liberal party of the capital was another instance of that peculiarity which some people are disposed to term obliquity but which tire tim STANDARD will rest with merely attributing to the fact that some people see the same thing or things through different eyes and with a different understanding under from trona the maj arity of their fe fellona fel lowa we ara not of those who believe it proper proper to hold up the judiciary for every ruling or decision which does not happen to coincide with their peculiar views nor do we admit that judges or any other people are perfect or that their public and official acts are exempt from criticism certain it is that if the ermine were a protection from juat just assault upon tha wearer of it we of utah would hava have had to suffer much more in the way of incompetency and evea knavery than we have suffered and heaven knows we have bad had enough why inthe if the voice of criticism had been mute through all the yeara years agone it is a reasonable conclusion that the original and only powers might still be in ia the place since made respectable by two andrup and upright successors just think of that I 1 what wa we moat wonder at in judge anderson An derjon is his ability or apparent ability to so analiza existing fa fasts ts that be he satisfies himself or jesmi ta to of the existence of a stats of thins which those who look upon the same sams facts outside of court C cannot in not sao see or realize and tha str atiga part of it ia Is that ia this th n instance as inthe in the oas oaly referred to the ad advantages van of his position inure to the pirty of which be himself is a member or with leasther leas the sympathize no one pretends to say that his political icil inclining influenced his judicial nalba in eiter cass yet we will ask anyone if be he believes bali evea that had the cue of R W young vs P L williams I 1 which occurred some weeks previously been tried balora jude andersan Ander aaa last instein eyd of juice zane young now discharging the duties of the and the chief in ia the disgraceful transaction by means of which he lie was temporarily deprived of it ba now under indictment by the grand and in this connection should also aleo be taken into consideration that judge zino zane is also a staunch liberal bu apparently unlike his associate te the fact that be he is on the bench beach does not cause him to see differently from what nearly everybody else sees them judge anderaon anderson is personally a very pleasant sort of gentleman and arld we doubt not an able lawyer perhaps ho he relies too upon abstract law and not enough upon concrete ia facts acts I 1 instead of making one the fa interpreter ter and gauge of the other anyway without the slightest intention of reversing him or attempting to set his judgment at naught we believe that tho the decision of TUB THE STANDARD is the better law and an J the surer justice as we certainly know that it Is tho the more popular by an immense majority i it tia is that ferguson Fer euson and not all alien en was chosen by the people to be clerk of the county court of salt like lo county at the august election and that the facts and add figures adduced before judge anderson fully showed that such was the case furthermore farther more we believe that the supreme coart of tho the territory before which it has been taken on appeal will so hold perhaps the latter tribunal may be headed off by technical procedure and impediments which do not aa as yet appear but in the absence of these our belief as shave will remain a unshaken n a baken until there la ia cause for changing it it should bo be taken into considers consideration in this connection that mr ferguson is ia if possible a more extreme liberal than mr alien allen so that it if THE tue STANDARD were disposed to cavil in favor of the party patty it supports which it is not there would ba be no reason for doine doing so in this instance good common sense reasonable interpretations of law and homelike everyday justice is good enough for us GF BUT LIft one of the oldest criminal lawyers and once one of the foremost ot of american statesmen has his indeed fallen into the sere and yellow leaf his ills mind is not impaired and bis his physical vigor is still good but be he seems to have reached the crowning point of I 1
