THE MORNING OREGONTAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 27, 1907. 11 I- 0' ay SUGGESSQR TO JUDGE SEARS Appointed to the State Circuit Court Bench by Governor Chamberlain. SERVES UNTIL ELECTION Appointee Is Prominent Member of Portland Bar He Is a Demo crat in Politics and Suc ceeds a Republican. I GOVERNOR AXNOrNCES AP- POINTMEJiT. t 6ALEM. Or.. Aug. 28. (Special.) Governor Chamberlain today an- nounced the appointment of Thomas O'Day. of Portland, to succeed the J late Judge Alfred F. Sears on the I Circuit Bench. It was the Govern- or'i Intention not to announce the .nnnintment until after the funeral of Judge Sears, but, as the Circuit Court will convene next Monday, and the appointee will need to arrange T his private business, the Governor I decided to announce the appoint- i ment today. J t . BY ARTHUR GREENE. Thomas O'Day, his intimates call him Tom, has caught up with his title. For years we have been calling him "Judge." for no other reason than that he should have been one. Now that is the regu larly authorized due pruard and sign by which we shall know him. "Our George' Chamberlain has attended to that and there are several thousands of people here in this fondly cherished town who are glad he did. Judge O'Day, by his due, it is now and Is likely to be for some time to come, under penalty of con tempt of court. Contempt of court Is altogether too ter rible to contemplate unless a gentleman has already been guilty of arson or lesa majeste in which event it won't matter and he may continue addressing his honor as "Tom." As a chronicler of the day's doings I first encountered the Judge so many years ago that memory runneth that far with difficulty. Explicitly speaking it was In 1903. even before the Fair was. He was before the late Judge Bellinger prosecuting the cause of a lady who had loved a rich cattle ranchman, with thous ands of cattle on a few hills away out in frontier Oregon. However wisely and however well was set forth In Judge O'Day's most impassioned pleadings to the end that $75,000 was stipulated as the exact value of the affection expended. Sir Cattleman had in his hours of ease evidently been reading Alfred Austin or Ella Wilcox and had breathed a lot of nothings into the susceptible ears of the maiden, aged 39. He neglected to make good the moonlight conversation and ac cordingly "Tom" O'Day ruffled his Jove llke front and tried his hardest to get the money. The Jury was in favor of any body who had loved and lost, so awarded damages and all was most as merry as a marriage bell with the lawyer and his client. But the court couldn't see it" that way and flattened the verdict out to less than one-third Its former thickness. Plain Mr. O'Day was mad but he ate his anger and bided his time. Eventually the case netted something and the cattle king now has a few less prime exports on his thousand hills. Judge O'Day demonstrated among other things In that trial that he Is an orator of no mean ability and a fighter who can take on the best of them without making weight. Also, that he knows plenty of law to qualify him for the place to which he has been appointed. Since then he has been conspicuously in the public eye as defending counsel In land fraud and other Important cases. He contended against the redoubtable Heney and lost no credit by so doing. In fact during the 18 years he has been a member of the Portlai d bar he has so conducted himself that he has always been a quantity to be considered. Being a Democrat he has groped about blindly In political darkness out of which until recently few emerged into the broad bright day of public life. He kept the faith, and loyally did his part In the mystic rites of Oregon Democracy even to the extent of tendering himself a burnt offering, as a candidate for the Supreme Bench of the Btate in 1904. Virtue, mixed with patience and an ability to hold hands Is Its own reward In Democratic politics in these parts and so at last Thomas O'Day. gets his. For a year he will sit on the circuit woolsack and dis pense Justice to the many who have their days In court. The Governor could not well have made a more popular appointment. Judge O'Day Is eminently a man whom the right kind of people like. If he lived in a country town he would be called "genial" for his courtesy is unfaHIng and his good humor Is as nearly inexhaustible as is proper with intellectual and moral force. He Is not always the benevolent giant, however, for sometimes in action he Is a raging lion. A man of pith and parts: a striking figure among his contemporaries, by all accounts a Just and upright lawyer he should distinguish the bench of the state. In the proper sense he is a "good fellow" but Is in no wise lacking in that dignity which belongs to worthy people. Judge O'Day Is democratic. He has been the people's advocate rather than a legal mainstay for corporate Interests. He has sympathy for and an understand ing of those who toll and suffer and get into trouble. I .take It that the long shoreman and the capitalist will each get the same kind of a deal In his court. If anything, the former may have a shade the better of it. At all events there will be no stacking of the cards. He is at his best, for at his age. 55, a man has Just attained that poise which Is Indispensable in the Jurist. There re main five years of the unexpired term of the late Judge Sears. After a year it will be left to the people to say what disposition is to be made of Governor Chamberlain's appointee. It Is not un likely that he will be elected for the full time. He may even go higher. Here in Oregon we need real men more than ever. They are tolerably scarce and the right kind of a public official, be he Re publican, Democrat or what not, will not find the field a crowded one. Judge Thomas O'Day has a big ooDortunitv. The people are looking at him and hope lng. Republics and states and cities are less ungrateful than they once were, and if he meets the expectations of his friends there will be something better further on. LAWYERS TO ATTEND FUNERAL Bar Association Meets and Arranges for Memorial on Judge Sears. When the meeting of the Bar Asso ciation was called to order by Judge Cleland, of the Circuit Court, at 10 o'clock yesterday morning In Depart ment No. 2 at the Courthouse, nearly every lawyer of the city was present. The bench was occupied by the three Judges of the Circuit Court. The object of the meeting was to arrange for the ceremonies by the association in con nection with the death of the late Judge Alfred F. Sears, Jr. A motion that a committee of five be appointed to draft a fitting memorial to the life and death of Judge Sears was made by W. W. Cotton. Upon this being unanimously carried the follow ing were appointed: Chairman, W. W. Cotton; Joseph Simon, G. G. Gammans, J. V. Beach and Frederick V. Holman. Judge Cleland announced that the funeral services will be held at the Unitarian Church, Seventy and Yam hill streets, today at 2 'o'clock. J. E. Magers suggested that members of the Bar Association assemble in De partment No. 1 of the Courthouse at 1:30 P. M. today, and attend the serv ices In a body, Whitney I Boise act ing as marshal.

Or., Aug. 26. (Special.) News of the death of Judge Alfred F. Sears, Jr., was received with regret by the mem bers of the Judiciary and bar in Salem. Chief Justice Bean, of the Supreme Court, paid the following tribute to Judge Sears: "Judge Sears was a learned lawyer and a very satisfactory Judge. He was a man of rare literary attainments, an enter taining companion and a pleasant asso ciate wherever met. He was intensely earnest in his effort to arrive at correct decisions, and his records always came to the Supreme Court In excellent shape." Judge J. C. Moreland, clerk of the Su preme Court, said: "I was greatly shocked to learn of Judge Sears' sudden death. I have known him quite well ever since he came to Portland. In point of learning, I think he had no superior at the bar, and this learning was always at his command. He was a man of in corruptible Integrity, a good Judge, and his place will be hard to fill. In common with thousands who knew him, I sincerely mourn his loss." Take Care of Old Folks in. Declining Years . Sisters of Mercy Make Life. Comfort able for Friendless Aged Man and Woman. BY LILIAN TINGLE, jr N EXCELLENT work Is being carried r on in Portland by the Sisters of Mercy at St. Joseph's Home, where nearly 100 aged men and women receive the shelter, care and attention made neces sary by their declining years and various Infirmities. Many of the inmates pay monthly board or have paid a "life sum" down; others, however, are unable to do this and ore supported by private con tributions collected yby the sisters. No one under 3'ears of age can be admitted, but all creeds and nationalities are represented. Some of the patients are merely feeble, others are blind, crippled or paralytic; hut no one insane or of bad character can be received. Many of the Inmates are over 80 years of age. One man, who died recently, had reached the age of 102 years. The work was begun here by the sisters nearly 11 years ago, but they have been only six years in their present building on East Stark and Thirtieth streets. The large red brick building, standing high in its own grounds, is capable of accommo dating about 125 persons In addition to th$ ten sisters who take charge of them. In the Basement is a large dining-room, un avoidably institutional in appearance of course, but airy and cool with Its green and white paint. On this floor, too, the visitor gets a glimpse of a shining, well scrubbed kitchen and a busy laundry. On the next floor are the reception rooms, some private rooms, the chapel and the men's parlor, where well-loved pipes are smoked and where "games of cards and dominoes are usually In prog ress. Being men, of course one dare not say they gossip, but at least there is plenty of conversation. Formerly the women had a parlor of their own too. but it was found that as a rule they much preferred touse their own rooms, which have accordingly been fixed up as bed-sitting rooms, and the former worn in's toarlor is iiEed for other purposes. jljDn the upper floors are convenient paillllCS, 1U1 UIC OCI RO JL iiifcmo v those who cannot take the Journey down stairs and for the quite helpless patients. Here are private rooms, some of them very pretty with pictures and flowers, and wards containing from two to eight beds. There are cheerful graftings to the visitor and pleasant smiles, even though she who smiles may be crippled with rheumatism or partially paralyzed. , One old German lady, who cannot raise her food to her Hps, still contrives to knit marvelous bedspreads, which she exhibits with pride while exchanging reminiscences of the Fatherland. Of course there are cranks too, and here as elsewhere It Is to be noticed that those usually complain most who have least reason: Just as It is always the traveler accustomed to least good things at home and of least good breeding, who complains most loudly about food and accommodations en voyage. There is something pathetic about the sight of so many old people left in their latter days to the mercy of strangers and the difficulties of Institutional life. But kindly strangers are better sometimes than uncongenial or careless relatives and uncomfortably boisterous grandchildren. Anyway, sweet-tempered or cranky, the Sister Superior seems to have a real affection and understanding for them all. 1 tfk x it- H Some of the men and women enjoy helping about the place, tending the cows, horses and chickens, and working a little in the garden. Others, even those able to do so, barely leave their own rooms. The visits of the Flower Mission girls are greatly appreciated. The musicales given at different times by Mrs. Lavey and Mr. Kleeman have been a great source of pleasure, and the lawn party, held in June, was also much enjoyed. Clackamas County Growers Blue. OREGON, CITY, Or.. Aug. 26. (Speclal.J Clackamas County hops have been seri ously damaged by the recent storms and in many yards the hops will not be picked at all.
