COUNTY COURTS.
The Provisions Of ths New sonth
nAkofa Constitution.
MosrEsaso. March 10.

MoNIEsANo, march ~.
To TnE EnfroE. A short time ago
an article appeared in the Posr.ISTKI-
AeEnegg over my signature. advocat-
ing . provision in ostr constitution for
county courts and county attorneys.
The following In regard TO county
courts Is taken from the Sioux Falls
constitution of South Dakota:
There shall be elected in each or
ganized county a county Judge who
shall be judge OF the county court OF
said county, whose term 81 office shall
be two years. or until otherwise pro-
sided By law.
County courts shalt be coarts of
record and shall have organized iuris-
diction in all matters of probate guar
dianship and settlement OF estates o.
deceased persons, and such other civil
and criminal jurisdiction as may be
confined by law, provided that such
courts shall not have jurisdiction in
any case where the debt, damage,
claim or value Of property involved
shall exceed 5000. except in matters
OF probate guardianship and the es-
tates of deceased persons.
Wriss of error and appeal may be
allowed from county 10 circuit courts
or ia the supreme court. in such eases
and IN such manner az may be pre-.
scribesi by law, provided that no APP
peal or writ Of error shall he allowed
90 the circuit court from any iadg-
llent rendered upon an appeal from
the justice or police magistrate for
cities and towns.
The county court shall not have
jurisdiction in cases of felony, nor
shall criminal cases therein be prose-
cated hy Indictment but they may
have such jurisdiction in criminal
matters, not of the grade OF felony. as
tho legislature may prescribe, and the
prosecutions therein may be by infor-
matien or otherwise as the legislature
may provide.
In inv opinion, Mr. Editor. the peo-
pie OF Washington cant do much bet
Ter than Ca engralt the above into
their constitution. II seems to be full
and complete. covering the entire
ground 80 far as county courts are
concerned.
/ We should also provide In the con.
siitntion for county attorneys. In order
/ that each eoanty may have its own
| legal adviser at home.
Under ouT present SYSTEM with only
! district courts and district attorneys,
/ persons arrested aud thrown into jaii,
ard then. at the eounty's expense. are
