the number of our ~uttmr Court judges
from seven ~ six, and th, reduction OF the
salary, is the cuEsUm ma e flower ui peanut

auctions is teltier reiurla NOR economy it is

viso that the Republican shah in all cases

so long as others approve its suggestions in
this direction ell is Wcli-such arc true

posed along other line, than those suggested
by the Republican aud it is "peanut

Republican is the first to illustrate our state
ment madc the other aay, that some Of the
papers now talking the loudest for reduc-
ton of state expenses will be the first to
call a halt when it comes to select
ing the places where the cut shall
be made. We are with tine Re
publican in its advocacy OF retrenchment
in state expenses, and maintain that at no
one point can a greater saving be made
with less disadvantage to the State than by
a reduction in the number of judges from
seven TO six We have already stated
somewhat in detail our reasons for holding
this opinion. That tho same opinion is held
by mary of the leading lawyers in the state
we know. That it viii prevail in the next
Legislature we are confident. A comLina-
ton OF the numerous candidates for the va
cancy TO be made by the retirement of
Judge Powers may prevent the reduction,
but if the much talked Of "will of the PEG
plo' prevails the reduction viii be made,
and $4,000 will he saved to the State in thu
next two years. As to tho salary, while
we think $1,000 and $500 for expenses
enough we agree with our ST. Johnsbury
contemporary, that the present salary is
perhaps none too large to attract and retain
tie best legal talent OF the State.
