BY Hon. JEFF Hardage, to have county
court. / think We need the bill passed,
because we need the court II we had the
court there could or would be more cases
disposed of at less than half the cost to
the county; Jail fees would be less, jurors
would not be needed so long; in fact we
could get along with a great deal less
codrting. II can see into the matter,
Mr. Objector seems to think a doctor, or
a lawyer, or public meeting or a grand
juror ought to have recommended the DILL
or an Alliance Lodge authorized IT. When
we gefto doing that kind Of business we
need not send any one TO represent US We

Lodge or public meeting, or some grand
jury 10 recommend what we want end
send it down and that will save sending
representatives from our county. Is that
what Mr.. Director wants? But | don't
think that is what he wants think he
wants the soft place that he spoke about.
If he don't, will tell him who does want
soft place if there is any to spare | will
