Verge Seeks Montana District Judge Nomination After War Service
Capt Walter Verge has returned from Alabama and is facing the prospect of seeking the Democratic nomination for district judge in the Nineteenth Judicial District. A former Teton county attorney and World War II era captain, Verge has long been a known figure in local politics and law, with past service on the Judge Advocate staff in Paris and a prior war record. The Montanan notes Verge’s plan but emphasizes the paper’s lack of party affiliation and hints at concerns over one influence guiding local politics.
