in the district court fairly ratified, so
rapidly did they cover legal ground.
During the six weeks that Judge
Dale was on :he bench he disposed Of
200 civil co es, 13 territorial cases, Al
United Sta.es criminal cases and two
habeas corpus eases. This is record
of which any man may well feel
proud. Judge Dale, when he ascended
the bench, set pace that even sur
prised litigants in court. The attor-

the same time such fairmindedness on
the part Of the court, fairly dazed

they soon caught on that the bench
was not given to dragging and dilly-
dal'ying, and they got a move on them
selves. In few days the lawyers, on
becoming accustomed to the change,
liked it, and when case was called
were promptly on hand. The Judge
was, and is yet, compimented for the
mass of ground covered and the clear

cases. The grand jury was discharged
last night. Judge Dale will go to
saltwater this week to open court
