Where an incumbent judge has an opponent, the voter will choose between them as heretofore. But, Mr. Tom Greene, Utah State Bar President, calls attention to the fact that the 1967 and 1969 Legislatures made a significant change with respect to judges whose terms expire, and who are seeking to continue in office, when no contestant has filed against them. In that instance the new law requires that the judicial ballot provide for answering the question: ... be retained Shall . . . (name of justice or judge) or Judge of in office as (Justice of the Supreme Court, the District Court)? No ) ) ( The objectives of this new law are to encourage and promote the retention in office of judges who are competent and doing a satisfactory job; and to afford a means of removing those who are not. It is the philosophy of the law that an honorable and able judge is entitled to the fullest measure of support and such judge is entitled to when standing for when a record of integrity and a showing of fine be These purposes judicial temperament has been maintained. is sufficient there interest, awarecan be carried out only if ness and intelligent participation by the voters of the State in making the law work as intended.

As this election approaches, it seems appropriate to remind ourselves of the importance of the judiciary as a coordinate branch of government. The judges are actually the keystone in the arch of the administration of law and justice which preserves the order of our society; and they, also have the responsibility, when controversies arise, of judging the extent of the powers of the legislative and executive branches of the government. It is hoped that the citizens of Utah will take sufficient interest in their judiciary to become informed and vote intelligently and purposefully in this new method for approval or disapproval of their judges. liegEli I ijaghggl NOTICE TO BIDDERS The City of Monticello, Utah is requesting bids for furnishing to the city a policy of liability insurance coverage as required and permitted under section to Utah Code Annotated 1953, for the period 63-30-- 63-30-- e KNOWN Of BONDS mORTGAGeTs AND OTHfB BONDHOLDERS OR OTHER SECURITIES th,i, MORTGAGES SECURITY ., nG mOIDERSOwn ... ..
