II is quite certain that the County Judge
system will be greatly modified. We pre-
sumo Senator Wilson's (of Jefferson) propo-
sision viii be adopted. His plan is to CON-
stitute County Board, composed Of the
County Judge and the Township Clerks Of
the county, with power TO make contracts,
audit and settle Nil accounts, and have CON.
troll of oil special county business, the body
TO meet three or four times year. This
would give all the benefits Of the supervisor
system, without creating any new officers,
and would restore to the people the manage
ment Of their own affairs. We hope tho
plan may be adopted.
