creating discussion, causing, agitation

Within two months Governor Hev-
: a « * ■■ ■ *
ward ha* eotunil**k>neu li special
Judge* to hold extra terms or .to pre
side In place of the two sick, Judges
Gage and Kltigh. That looks like ex
travagance, but the Governor is not
responsible, haying acted In obedience
to law.
No doubt a stronger effort w ill be
made at the next session of the I.egl*
lature to create two more Judicial Cir
cuits. ami ]tlie present eonge«tod con
ditions will be cited in. support of the
Increase.
Seine old fasliloned folks believe,
however, that If tiic regular Circuit
Judges would work diligently and hold
"“-■the lawyer* .down to business ther^t
w’pold be no need of extra oourts. Un
less there is a quickening In proceddure
it will not be long before another in
erease In .The number of circuits Is
called for.
pnintments of special Judges, v’They
are somewhat in line pf competitive ex
amination# that serve to give an in
sight Into the fitness of these protein
holders of the scales of justice for per
manent position. They also enable
“ many a man to be called Judge whb
would otherwise never enjoy that^title
They are no costlier Gian regular
terms.
If law or rulo\was so changed that
no special ternf could be held except
upon reoonnuepdaiion of the Grand
Jury there would be no objection on
the part of ^uximyers to those extra
courts. • -
And it would bo well for the Grand
Jury to aeleot the attornoy to preside
a* special Judge.
LAWYER ANDpI.T ENT:
Lawyer—Hjve you told me every
thing you know about your case?
Client—Evetything l know, except
where I bid the money. I’ll wniTt that
after you clear me to jfO'On with and

AN EAST WIND.
Mlrfy of the newspaper editors are
beginning now to call the lawyers to
taw on acoouirt of the corruption nml
Itxity of good moral* In the jury room.
The lawyer* are responsible for ho lit
tle pf It. The methods which they use
—.In preparlng for^a case are often of
etich a questionable nature that they
■would hot like the details to be airotj.
It usedlo be said that the bigh tone 4
*nid conservatism In the bar would be
the anchor for the ship of State.
Shyster method* that used to be ab»
hort-ed and suppressed whenever they
came to hotice were first winked at,
then adopted by the members of the
rOjir, and now It I* not rare to find most
doubtful characters at the bar the most
influential and apparently respected.
It is hot bard to seq the rekult on the
courts and the clients. While w'e are
calling for reform, let us call for it all
h round.—Florence Times.
SIMPLE GURE FOR GAPES.

Take flower of sulphur ohe teaspoon-

then feed In this rotation until well,
And.gapes will disappear In seven or
eight days.-antl I assure you none will
die after three feeds. When I com

thirty-five chicks; had been losing
