The Commonwealth suggests that in view
of the increased labor Of the circuit judges. if
there are not additional judges appointed,
the pay Of the present judges should be in
creased. This would be nothing more than
right. for the laborer is worthy Of his hire.
But what becomes of tie economy of the new
system, ifthe pay of the county judges is to
be reduced only that the circuit judges pay
be increased?
