On the 2ft th of September, the "te convention Mir-- n vlll Re-I'- ll s con-yen- in Salt Lake City for the purpose oi ii. in. in a candidate for the Supreme ootir of the state mid a member of congress. Of the two, the furnur U IIim must lniKirtsnt to the state. A Judge of the Supreme court is one ol three men to whom as tlir.il arid-tormust come all legal questions. They arc the final Interpreters of the law, as well as the sworn defenders of the constitution of the commonweal' h. The man who occupies this position should be one of sound judgment und unsigned Integrity, as well as s lawyer of the profoumlest learning, lie should be a man who in hia iiosltlon la superior to all partisanship: In a word, a tmin who Is the greatest of all, an upright judge. Two names have bo far been prominent lv mentioned for the supreme judgsh'p. These are Judge Morse of the Third Judicial 'district bench and Judge Frick, the senior member of the law firm of Frick A Kdwards of Salt Jjike City. Roth of these gentlemen are men who would lend honor to the position. Roth are lawyers of profound learning, both are of the Judicial turn of mind, both are grand specimens of American' cltlsenshln. both are men of ripe Judgment. Either of them would make a superb tustlce of the Supreme court. Judge Morse has still two vesrs of his term on the district bench to fill out, and though his friends urge hint for the higher Daslilnn, there Is not wanting mnny who urge that his place la on the bench to which he was elected. He has tilled the position with credit to himself and to llie state, and though his place no doubt could be filled, yet ns was .anhl Wore, many would like him to complete his term. As for Judge Frick, there is no question as to hla qualification for the position.

He la a Republican of no faction a man that every wing of the pasty could support without causing any bickerings or strife. He la superior to any ring and is not nor cannot be made amenable to any machine. Both gentlemen mentioned are personally safe men, as was said before. Both would make superb Supreme hidges. Barring the fact that Judge Morse already has a position in which he Is needed, a choice would be hard to make. esof well. It la different now. How difer-ent- . we don't know, but it certain) la the difference between the execution of a sentence and the granting of a new trial the difference between a chance for life and the certainty of death. Depend upon It that the nost will he made of the opportunity, that the vantage ground gained will,' be sold and no steps backward will be taken. j It Is not a proper thing to introduce a skeleton at a banquet, or dwell upon a gloomy retrospection when a change for the better has taken place. Still, a word by way or review at this point may have a good effect, even this iioint have a g'xxl effect even though It may here and there be placed before unwilling eyes. From Its inception nearly a year ago this little paper In a spirit of friendliness and with an unselfish deslra to promote the welfare of the Republican party urged that atepa be taken, that concessions be made, that means of conciliation be adopted, whereby HAMMOND, CHAIRMAN. The Republican State committee on Tuesday last chose Hon. James T.

A imre Judicious, diplomatic proceeding could not have been taken. There la not a more upright. Independent. earnest man In the Republican party, or any other, than Mr. Hammond. He desires, and has all along desired, tlmve all merely selfish consideration, the furtherance of Republican prlnclplea and the prosperity in of the Republican organisation, which Important, respects he la so much at variance with those who have been in control for Home time that It was hardly believed so sensible, so proper a thing as his appointment was possible If even probable, and It fell upon us like the proverbial shaft of lightning out of the traditional unclouded sky. No mutter; It came slid Is just as welcome as If It had been expected. Hammonds appointment means a concession to the great mass of Republicans which In turn means a change of front and esprit du corps which the ranks have lung unknown. her Hope, withering, had poised drooping wings for flight and the the Utah department of the great organisation oould be unified, or nt least Its entitles be leas antagonised than waa the case. These efforts attracted attention nnd received notice; one element, realising the correctness and aptness of our position, were rejoiced that even In this humble and restricted way the true political gospel found n voice; the other and controlling element had no use for auch "chatter, and no words but those of contempt for the medium which gave It expression. Even that, adding as It did the discouragement of shrunken patronage to the discomfiture of alighting treatment from those who personally had always been regarded and treated as friends, did not crush the struggling production nor squeese Its audacious conductors out of the field. They stayed. They are here yet. doing business at the old stand. But the other people have moved at last and praises to Allah! moved In the right direction.

Now for a long pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether In which performance this paper will be on hand to contribute its mite, as It has ever done. THE COMING CONTEST. Registration for the coming election has already begun and will be continued Intermittently until just before the voting time arrives. If the number registered were taken as an indication of the political trend. It would not be a very encouraging situation, for most of the registrars on the opening day Monday last had little to do, some nothing at all. But such a state of things Is by no means a criterion, as the time when registration will be made effective Is some distance ahead, and It Is quite Impossible to work up much Interest In contests so remote as that of November next Those who are entitled to have their names on the voting list and have not yet availed themselves of the privilege can and In nearly every case will do so before the fateful time arrives. The proportion as to new arrivals here and those in our midst who have just reached their majority la not known, but there will probably not be a great deal of difference, and unless they or much the greater part of them should go one way in the matter of voting a wholly Improbable proposition the general result will not be much changed from what It would have been without them. Both the great parties here are divided against themselves, the Republicans being by far the greater sufferers from that condition, and this circumstance sets aside the means by which computations have previously been made. Besides, the Socialists are a factor to be reckoned with, especially If the trades unions should In make common cause with them. such latter event their vote In this county should be 5000 and might possibly reach 6000, which would likely take them from the foot of the class and make them at least third In the race; and this suggests the possibil ity of the election being a mixed one. Well, worse things than that might happen. The choice of supreme court judge, representative to congress and the legislature are the only features of the contest In which the state at large participates, and undoubtedly, there will be a lively scrimmage over all these, with the chances favoring the Republicans, for outside of Salt Lake County the splitting propersity la not engaged In so extensively, in most counties not at all. They have nearly half the state senate to begin with, and this la a pretty good start for a majority of the legislative body; but thia la by no means conclusive. Strange things may happen between now and the Idea of November. JUDGE BARTCH.
