The Biloxi Herald snaakinp

The Biloxi Herald. speaking of the
November sitting of circuit court in
that county to be held by the new
circuit Judge, Mcdonald, says that
the state docket into which Judge
Mcdonald will have TO cut at the
November term of circuit court in
this county will be very large. There
are 1O3 cases now on the state docket,
80 of which are appeals from the city
Of Biloxi. There are 1873 cases on the
issue docket and 20 cases on the ap-
pearance docket. To all this will be
added the work of the grand jury and
the avalanche of small cases would be
sufficient to keep the court in session
for more than a month if they were
all brought to trial The congestion
of the docket is due in great meas
ure to the unsettled county site mat
ter which is now happily settled so
that the new judge will be able in
the course of few months to reduce
the docket to normal size"
