that the State will now comprise four
Judicial Districts as follows: Judge
Bigelow will have the counties of
Washos, Churchill and Elko; Judge
Fitzgerald will preside over Eureka
Lander and Humboldt counties; Judge
Rising will have the same counties he
has now. to wit: Storey, Ormsby,
Douglas. Esmeralda and Lyon counties;
Judge Wells will be assigned to White

We believe this arrangement will
give better satisfaction to tie people of

ate the transaction of judicial bushes IS
