TO ONE uld deny the right of a qualified per- son to become andidate for public office, but many would question the propriety under certain circumstances. The idea of divorcing the judiciary from politics has had a widespread endorsement in Wyoming. The notion was popular and to consid- erable extent practiced long before legislative ac tion was taken. The law now absolutely separates ¥ the candidacy of judicial officers from political par- ties. These candidates are now chosen in separate primaries of non-partisan character. This mode may and may not be the wisest. Believers in party will scarcely approve the practice. Those upon whom party responsibility rests lightly can read- ily endorse. Be all these things as they may, when contests for judgeships arise, nothwithstanding the dignity and aloofness reputed to attend these non-partisan exercises, they are at once plunged into politics, and the ordinary and usual methods of securing nomination are employed. There can be no enthusiastic approval of the contests that have been launched by the Hon. H. ‘V. S. Groesbeck and the Hon. V. J. Tidball for the justiceships held by the Hon. Ralph Kimball and the Hon. Frederick H. Blume respectively. The latter were appointed to fill vacancies on the supreme bench caused by death. At considerable personal and professional sacrifice these gentlemen accepted the appointments at the hand of Governor Carey, who at the time was looking for the high- est ability and fitness in the state. The state gen- erally approved the governor's selections and: the subsequent record of the supreme court vindicated the excellent judgment of the governor. Never, since the organization of the state's high- est court, has the membership been of higher quui- ity. Never has its membership been more especially ‘fitted for harmonious and wise interpretation of the laws. It is an ideal court. For the best inter- ests of the state it should not be disturbed. It’s members should not be Mequired to go abroad over the state secking endorsement of the people in pri: mary elections for a record without flaw, simply because contests have been brought by others. The Wyoming supreme court should stand as it is now constituted. The people of Wyoming should by their action in the primaries continue the pres- ent membership and administer a rebuke to those who are pulling the judiciary back into politics. Churches Will Not Abide ‘Alone RE is a signal call to a broader service of the |* churches in an hour of peril in a contribution to the Kansas City Star, by the Rev. Samuel Hark- ness of the Immanuel Presbyterian church, “Amer- ica’s troubled conscience,’ Mr. Harkness says, “af- fords the churches the mightiest opportunity for human service that they have ever known since the Wazarene hung on His cross, and let them ponder this truth: The people who never darken their ‘doors, or speak kindly of them still believe that in their Evangel is the healing of the nation.” It may well be a question if the churches them- selves are vot snowing signs of a troubled con- science; and Mr. Harkness’s clear insight into the needs and duties of the churches today may very likely be the expression of what thousands are feel- ing and of what they hope to do. A deep pity in- deed it would be if, in the midst of an unsettled per- iod when some strong agency or powerful leaders might say the words or do the things that would save the day for righteousness and democracy, the churches shonld remain silent and inactive, not @ven looked to, as Mr. Harkness says, for direction. The modern Gethsemane of the churches may prove to be the heavy travail bound up with a sacri- fice of self in order that real life may be had both for self and for the world of men the churches have professed themselves willing to serve. Never was a deeper truth spoken by the Master than the declara- tion, “Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone; but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.” Can it be the truth that the churches, which “feel sure that they are teaching the Bible and sadly wonder why their news are so dropped into the soil to blossor: forth into a boun- teous harvest? If it proves necessary té sacrifice what some of the churches have regarde] as essen- tial, as Mr. Harkness says in order to make them- selves telling forces at work among men, to win the boys on the street corner or the scores of families within a stone’s throw of the church who have wever looked inside its walls, will not the loss be swallowed up in victory? To make itself a social force, a community as well as a religious center, | the church may Have to concentrate less on the spe- cial kind of services that have been its chief pro- gram and go out into the world, perhaps with a loss of its presen: itentity and do battle for the cause of righteousnes . “There is a time to preach and a time to pray,” said a Virginia clergyman to his congregation ac the Revolutionary war was breaking. “There is also a tire to fight, and that time is now.” And as he spoke he threw aside his ministerial garments and #ppeared in the full uniform of a Virginia colonel. Wien of his charge rallied around their leader. Others, hearing of the daring move, came in to aug- auent the forces. The churchmen and their leader ibecame a valuable part of the Continental Am they helped win a struggle which changed the whole history of the nation. It may be the churches are ready now to enter another struggle which will count heavily in the whaping of the country’s future. The churches are not willing to abide alone. } The Troops and the Shopmen “ ITH TROOPS in six states of the middle west | ; under arms ready for action in the event of violence committed by railway strikers,” says the Boston Transcript, “the beginning of the week co- incided with what is regarded as the beginning of the critical stage of the strike. Following the ces- sation of work there came a period of waiting on the part of the railroads, with the customary no- tices to the men to return to their jobs or forfeit their rights to them. Now comes the stage of the battle when there will be a general reopening of the shops and an endeavor to secure workmen both from the ranks of the strikers and from other sources. It is obviously a situation in. which there is danger that lawless elements will break loose, if be Casper Daily Cribune A Regular Izaak Walton Is Also a Judge of Bait. they get the chance. It is clearly the duty of gov- ernment, state and national to take adequate pre- caution ‘to promptly and sternly suppress infrac- tion of the laws. Leaders of the strikers may be expected te do they can to prevent violence. They doubtless understand that rioting, with the destruction of life and property, would mean the creation of ac- tive hosility to their cause on the part of a public which already views the strike with marked disfa- vor. They know that interference with the trans- mission of the mails and with the orderly conduct of interstate commerce are offences with which the natiqnal government, if need be. may properiy deal on its own initiative. They know, too, that there will be no sympathy in administration circles with a strike against the rulings of the railroad labor board, a government agency. ness it is to direct the strike have every incentive to prevent further violence and disorder.

The circulars urge the strikers to ignore the injunctions issued by the courts and to defy the troops. There is here an invitation to in- surrection. Leaders of the strikers, who have turn- od copies of the circnlars over to the United States authorities, must have seen in them additional evi- dence that elements beyond control of strike man- agers may cause rioting and bloodshed.

For more than a quarter of a century they have recognized that the only hope they had in this state was through dissensions in the Repub- lican party. Months before every election, they be- gin their insidious work of boring into the opposi- tion. They start all sorts of rumors in the hope that Republican ranks may be broken and that they may elect some of their party candidates. Gen- erally speaking, they are willing to trade every- thing they have—and that is mighty little—for two or three leading candidates of their party. “This year is no exception to the rule. They have been for weeks spreading the propaganda that Mr. Kendrick’s popularity is drawing to him many Re- publican’ votes. When they are asked who these Re- publicans are, they name two or thre business asso- ciates of Mr. Kendrick and then talk of people in other counties. It is always elsewhere that the great inroads are being made and not in the imme- diate locality where the person talking is called down. “Wyoming Republicans realizing that they have 2a majority of the votes, a stronger candidate and a better legislator,.are paying little heed to the old threadbare stories. In many instances they could easily cite cases where voters who supported Ken- drick in 1916 are this year supporting Mondell and upon the sole ground that the is better qualified more industrious and more actively on the job than his opponent. “The most contemptible of the political methtds being used by the Democratic leaders is their en- little used,” too largely have been abiding alone, apart from the movie crowds, the street corner gangs, the hordes of indifferents, because of an un- readiness to lose themselves for the sake of the humanity they were commissioned to save?

They do not cite North Casper it was up to us to do it, So we got busy and organize the North Casper Community club and through this organization we nave raised the necessary funds for the grading of our streets.

Anderson, who have done tae work for us at a very reasonabie of our strests in good shape and all will be when the work is completed. This is some of the work of this organization, but we are doing other things. We hold regular meetings of this club, have put on some very en- joyable social meetings and are get- ting acquainted with each other and in-se doing find that we have some talent that has been slumbering that we have been able to bring out. ‘We have learned that amongst er things that we have a man in midst that can tell to the best of them how to barbecue an ox so the ox has been bought and is now fatten- ing and on Sunday afternoon, com- mencing at sharp noon, July 23, in a nice grove just to the east of us about half a mile we are going to give the people of this vicinity a real feast of roast beef and other things that go with it, and an invitation is exterded to all to come and lunch with us. We are not going upon the mountain top with our treat, where only those with high power care can reach it, for you know that the most of us tn North Casper have only Fords and are not used to making high altitudes. The invitation is extended to all to come and join us in this feast, which we are offering in recognition of our suc- cess so far in our organization. It will be free to you, and if you are not able to walk we will send an auto after you if you will come. ‘We also have other matters that will soon have our attention and hope to be able to continue our good work, of which we will keep you inseay: pant, Democracy’s Failure ‘ “Does organized labor uphold or condemn that heartless massacro that occurred in the Tlinois coalfields?” in- quires the Living Church. “One wishes that the honest part of labor could come to the surface. And one wishes, too, that it might realize that organized labor {n this country is committing suicide, and that the only hope for it—if, indeed, it be not too late to save it at all—is for the honest particular instances in which Mr. Kendrick has favored the laboring classes, nor do they mention cases wherein Mr. Mondell was in opposition, ply depending upon generalities.” .

She berates us because the French adore ‘Sarah Bernhardt, not for what she was but for what she is. She thinks that if Ellen Terry had lived in America she would not have dared to let her hair go frankly white. Miss Hurst tells us that in Europe the ma- ture woman receives the admiration and attention which we shower upon the young, and that we need to culti- vate more of that attitude. Miss Hurst, when she makes these critieisms, does not see life steadily and see it as a whole. If the French adore Sarah Bernhardt for what she is, s0 do we. For us she ts the divine Sarah because she has so marvelously Preserved the attributes of youth. She can still kindle as youth kindles. And that does not demean her years; it glorifies them. “When Miss Hurst says that it is the mature woman, with her experi- encs, her widowed sympsthies, het tact and intelligence, and not the girl, who receives ‘the homage of Euro- peans she forgets that this admirable condition carries with it another stm-|it perfectly plain that they will not be/ which {s not so admirable.
