inflniteaimal 'percentage Jof the voter*
that can be pereooally aolicited and

yote or one influence be of aufficient val
ue to be worth the price of 'purchaaing'.
With the Utter, when a majority of
bO voter* haa been known to elect and
when total majorltiee rarely ezeeed
b 1000, each vote ia infinitely valuable,
s- and ia worth the expenditan of Hercu
lean effort*.
Since the publication ot the thort ed-
- i to rift I to which Hr. Ward’* at tide waa
0 a nply, a auggeation haa been made to
q the Timea-Enterpridb which appeala to
g oawpnferable to our original idea of
g of aelection by the aupnme court. Thia
a auggeation call* for the election of the
1 Jadge* in their own home circuita pa
9 now, but their preaiding exclnaively in
: an adjoining circuit. Thia plan would
f completely aileoce our objection* to the
- m elective eyatem, while still preaerving
the democratic machinery.
• It ia hardly practicable to have India-
criminate rotation of the judge* becaun
of the difference in condition* between
* a North Georgia circnit for lnatanoe, and
• the Thomaaville cUcuit. North Oeor-
giana are not able to pay the flnee that
1 would be but juat in South Georgia.
Thia great atate ia po*w*4d of anch
varied reeourcee and varied condition*
1 that a man from the aorthweai can
hardly be expected to be familUr with
oondltlona in the aoutheaat. But aurely
a man of aufficient prominence to be
elevated to the Itooorable poaiticu of a
judge would be of wide enough experi
ence to know the conditions in hla ad
joining circuit. j

, CHOICE OF JUDGES.
! In reply to a recent editorial in the
Timea-Enterprim regarding the present
tuanner of aelecting superior oonrt judg
es, Hr. J. 8. Ward, Jr., haa writtan a
logical and axoallent defence of the sys
tem now In vogo*.
Hr. Ward votoM the sentiment of n
great many people when lio eays that al
most anything is better than the old
way* of appointment by the governor
with confirmation by the senate and
election by the legislators. It waa ac
knowledgement of this eentimiot in onr
aelvewthat drove a* In desperation to the
auggeation of s plan yet untried, ap
pointment bv the supreme bench.
Hr. Ward flnda only one fault with
the preaetflVrootliod ofeleotlon by the
people, and tliat is the tie re scary
▼ale having to be taken by the elate at
He would lisvu the matter left
r with the people of the circuit
r whicli the Judge will preside.
In this, our opinions are diametrically
opposite, 'if tlio law requiring the dec
ton of every judge by the entire state
were an active force and not a dead fig.
• ore, aa tt is.'we should be far leas anx-
ion Tor e-change. Hr. Wild thinks
that the judges, being onr most Impor
tant officers, should be the ones of oil
-others tobe chonu directly by tbo vote
■of the people. He regards an argument
■wgajnat the encceH of such a system as
‘an argument against the eooeaaa of
>ubUcdn government
Hr, Ward baa lost eight ot the real
boose in the sspulohre. We acknowl
edge that popular alection haa been
adopted In many states that itia the aeem
lug democratic method, and that it ia
the system which brings poaitlve Immu
nity front dospotism. On the other
hand, we do not bdieve "immunity
from influence" to be a trait of human
nature. The public voloe of Georgia haa
raised a mighty clamor against the so-
-oeptam-e of railroad passes by onr legis
lators on the ground that they must be
thereby prejudiced iu favor of tho rail
road. If t)nre be truth iu this claim,
bow much more weighty must bo the
influence exercised over a judge by a
.prominent member 6f a family control
ling one or two hundred votes in his cir
cuit.
While instances or judicial corruption
la Georgia have been exceedingly rare
in all times, we would call the gentle
man's attention to the fact that the re
cent disgrace in North Georgia was not
anaaddentnoraninoidont, bat a di-
mas. Undar ail three systems this Im
mediate circuit, and mart circuit* In
this section, have obtained complete sat
isfaction, bat the satisfaction has been
ia spite of the system and act beeauae
or it. ,
