WHO'LL GET COTTONWOOD ?
May Be Attached to Judge Quinn's
District.

A newspaper discussion of the pro-
ject of decreasing the size of the thir-
teenth judicial district. which COM
prises the counties of Pipestone. Rock,
Mobiles, Murray and Cottonwood
counties. has been opened, as formerly
noted. It is contended that the dis
trict has too much business for Judge
Brown to take care of single handed,
and different means of rectifying this
are being advanced.
It has been suggested that Cotton
wood county be detached FROM Judge
Browns district and attached to
Judge Cray's district. but Judge Cray
declares that he now has all he can
handle as Blue Earth county alone has
so much litigation.
A well.informed lawyer of this city
cites the fact that Judge Brown has
Eve counties in his district which
makes more work than any one Judge
can attend to and that he is now
many months behind with his work.
This lawyer thought that unless an
other judicial district was formed the
only solution would be to attach Cot
tonwood county to Judge Quinn's dis
trict which now comprises jackson,
Martin and Faribault counties.
Judge Quinn is not looking for more
work but with his faculty for rushing
court business. could probably handle
the four counties for q few years al
least. --Fairmont Sentinel.
