Vote for RE-ELECTION of
CHIEF JUSTICE
Andrew M. Morrissey
"The political parties have made no
nominations for Chief Justice. The
Chief Justice Is not elected as a party
candidate, but his name will be found
with other Judicial Candidates, and
school officers on a separate ballot.
"We favor the re-election of Chief
Justice Morrissey because vve believe
In the law designed to take the
courts out of politics and to elect
Judges because of their qualifications.
"Six years ago when he became
Chief Justice the court was about
three years behind. Today the court
Is as nearly up witli Its work as It Is
practicable for a supreme court to be.
Credit for this Is not wholly due to
the Chief Justice, but other members
of the court who have contributed to
this result give full credit to Chief
Justice Morrissey for his share In' Its
accomplishment. .
"He has executive ability that gets
results. He enjoy the friendship and
co-operation of his associates. He has
the respect and confid:n;c of the
lawyers who have business in the
Supreme Court. He has helped to
clear away many technicalities of the
law. Law-breakers have been brought
to Justice, and honest men enjoy the
protection of the courts.
"If you are In doubt about how to
vote on Chief Justice, ask your Dis
trict Judge." Lincoln Tribune.
