MORE JUDGES. NOT MORE COURTS.

To As Ed,tor Of tbs Ch1euoo Fr,bune:
Cn1cAuo. Feb. 1l.-iour correspondent In
yesterdays Issue advocatos tho creation Of au.
otuer court, with five Judges. 1 think II a
great misfortune that the Constitution did not
abolirh the Superior Court, hnd give ua Judges
enough in the Circuit Court to do the business,
transfer all too cases pending iu The Superior
Court to tho Circuit, and let us lase ono place
where to took for Judgments, aud ono court iD
winch all tho business IN courts OF record IL tito
county should bo done. Tue ouiy posstble OBJ
teution to such q cou1se was that there would
not have been The empty hoaor Of but one Chief
Justircship. whereas the,o are now two, since it
would hase beon - easy to have made
The then Judges Of the Superior Court Judges
Ct the Circuit as to have made all tho Judgca Of
the two courts Judges Of this Criminal Court,
aud tie then Judge OF tho Recorders Court =
Judge of the Ci.euit Contt. But Tits mistake
we haye upon ua do not let NJ o1sggerato 1t by
nlu,siptyiug courts. Let ne rather ipereaee tho
Judges Of each Of tho exciting couts as inst aH
cau 10 done. The lltter course il dangerous
cuuugh, but DO not lie. us incur the danger Of
having court where the tAseves. the gamblers,
the Idle, tho daaolntc tho saloon-kecporb, and
their partners, shall hare full Bway. Say what
Sou will, and continue 1t nB you may, It will be
looked upon at tho outset oa the court OF JUS
tce Of tho Pesce exaggerated; ayery hangcr-on
at tho Police Courts and briei1oas lawyer
will constdsr himself qualified for seat
gu ita bench: the cassss aforementioned will
second their aspirations, aud the court thus cre-
a,ed and oilicesrd will be Litter curse. Better,
far better that litigation should ba long delayed
Than 6ueh court.
