Gardner as Republican Township :Committee- man for Newv Trier township, we wish topoint out that in addition to his. other high qualifications for the office, lie is peculiarly able to discharge one of the most important duties of that office, namely, -participating, as. a memiber of the. County Central Com- mittee* in the nomination of Judges of the Circuit and Superioar Courts of Cook county a nd selecting the can- didates for judges of the Municipal Court of Chicago who shail receive organization support. It is common knowrltdge that the. degree of ability and integrity, of out, judges determines in large measure the quality of justice nieted out in cour courts. The evils that flow from the courts of what are known as political judges, especially in times of unusual dîstress, are notorious. Both the organize-d bar and the better. etl ment by a realization of the import- ance.-of the problemn and our belief that Mr. Gardner's canciîdacy for this office offers an almost unique oppor- tunity, to put the right mani iný the, right place.
