AN ADDITIONAL CIRCUIT JUDGE.

The bill authorizing the people of
this county to determine whether the
county shall have an additional circuit
Judge having passed both houses of the
legislature, the matter will come up
for the consideration of the electors at
the coming spring election.
1t is not generally understood that
circuit judges are state officers. and as
such are paid by the state from state
funds, but such is the case. The re-
naming officers, such as clerk, sheriff,
etc, are county officers, and the county
pays the entire amount of their salaries.
In case of judges in many portions of
the state where the population is light,
one Judge sets for several counties, but
in the cities of Detroit, Grand Rapids
and Saginaw the business of the court
is divided between several judges, and
our county helps to pay the salaries of
those extra judges iii our assessment
of state tax.
BY making computation of this
county's share of the state tax required
to pay the salary of the extra Judge il
is shown that the entire of this
county's share of his salary would not
exceed $40 per year. The same clerk
sheriff and stenographer would con.
tinue TO do the business as now, divid,
ing the work between themselves and
their deputies. There is ample room
for the work in the county building
and while one judge hears jury cases
the other can take charge of law and
chancery matters. There seems to bt
no question but the extra help is nee
essary, or that the county would be
saved much by expediting the work OF
the court. Both political parties have
endorsed the change, and electors
should give the matter attention on
election day.
