Papua
By An Admirer.
JUDGE RALPH GORE came to Pa pua as Crown Law Officer with the highest credentials, and he has done all that was expected of him.
As associate to the late Sir Sam.
Griffith and subsequently as a prac tising barrister in Brisbane he showed exceptional ability, and his experience qualified him to succeed the late Mr.
C. Herbert as Judge in Papua.
Big in mind and stature, affable and kind, a good sport and soldier, Judge
Gore is extremely popular. It is only the unfortunate circumstance that he is not the senior member of the Execu tive Council which debars him from being Acting Lieut.-Governor in the absence of Sir Hubert Murray from the territory. But he is the only official in the service qualified by ability, edu cation and experience to wear the mantle of Sir Hubert when that intel lectual and physical marvel can no longer stand up to Time.
