Lamar's Appointment and Republican Backing
The appointment of Lamar to a seat on the supreme bench was confirmed by a Republican-led Senate on Monday. Some national Republicans do not regard him as odious as local party organs, yet many newspapers aim to frame the coming campaign around his past. Lamar is portrayed as a defender of equal justice and a national party man, despite twenty five years ago fervent Confederate ties. He spoke of Lincoln with respect, and critics cite New York Tribune editorials to challenge his loyalty, though his disabilities were removed long ago and he has served with distinction in the Senate and cabinet.
