Judge DeArmon make a representative in congress that would do honor to any and we predict that the halls at our national seat ¢ overnment will yet resound with his eloquence. In the meantime he will be triumphantly Chinte judge without opposition nominated at or cire and elected, and make one of the best circuit judges in state.
