One -of - the - atortea - current - In con

thst the governor, might .appoint some
Republican circuit Judge to the place

the Republican circuit Judges of Mult

for the elevation of a Portland Demo
crat to the local bench. Another was
that - Judgs Robert - Eakin - of - Union

The selection ' of an eastern Oregon

good political stroke. The lntereats of
that part of the, state and consequently
the character of the litigation are very
