Jatent danger lurking in this condition of affairs, as every thoughtful citizen must see. In a government constituted like ours it is of the highest importance that the judiciary should be above reproach. It should challenge, respect and inspire confidence. The only way to place the bench in a position to command popular respect and confidence is to enable it to com. mand the best talent and learning at the bar.*-*- Alta California.
