REDlSTRlCTlNG, A FRAUD.

\ measure is now pending be
fore the Legislature to redistric
the Judicial Circuits of Missouri
cut down the present number O
Judges, and increase the salaries
of the remaining Judges from
$1,000 to $4,000 year.
At first glance it would seen
that the measure, should it be.
come a law, would be a good one
as the idea of reducing the nun.
ber of salaried officials is always
looked upon with favor by the
people. But careful examina.
ton of the measure reveals the
fact that instead of being benef-
cial, it must of ecessity become
mischieyous, and increase rather
than tighten the burden of taxa
tion.
The Circuit Judges of the
various districts now have about
all they can attend 70, and to in
crease their territory would be to
increase their business till it
would be impossible to keep up
with their dockets. Then the
Legislature would be called on to
furnish additional help, as was
recently done with the Supreme
court, thus increasing instead of
decreasing the number of Judges.
1t would seem that the measure
is a scheme of the Circuit Judges
to get their salaries raised, and at
the same time draw the attention
Of the people from the fact by
pretending to decrease the num-
ber of Judges.
Every county and Senatorial
district in the state should IN
struct their representatives to
work for the defeat of the bill
and thus save the state from hay-
ing q measure foisted upon it that
will not only increase the burden
f taxation now, but continue to
Increase it indefinitely.
