One OF the instances OF petty graft
aud plum-sucking that has cropped out
repeatedly in recent years is the con.
stituting of so-called municipal courts.
The recent legislative session resulted
in the establishment of several and the
increase in salary of several Others.
Those courts of somewhat more ex-
tended jurisdiction than a justice court
deal mainly with criminal offences OF
the town in which they are established,
and perhaps of few surrounding towns,
displaciug the justice courts in this re-
spect. Instead Of fees for time actually
employed the municipal judge draws q
salary from the state of several hundred
dollars year, and gets the title OF
Judge" besides. The plum always goes
to lawyer, who is glad to exchange an
uncertain income earned from clients
for certain stipend from the state,
with chance to dabble in other things
on the side. In the cities, and perhaps
q very few of the larger towns, there ia
a measure of excuse for such court,
but the way the thing is creeping into
the small towns-merely for the purpose
of giving some hack lawyer soft berth
constitutes all abuse that deserves a
sharp checkrein. 1t is noticeable that
these new judgeships are almost invari-
ably created " heu there is some eligible
party in one branch or the other of the
assembly from the town Interested
and that he gets the joo.-Randolph
Herald & News.
Does the writer of the above claim to
sIeak from knowledge, either FIRST or
second hand, or to make his charges the
general principle of the average obstruc-
ZIONIST, to whom any innovation, unless
its success and necessity are absolutely
guaranteed, is a scheme for graft and
plum sucking? The late Legislature
established municipal court for this
town, with territorial jurisdiction over
the towns of Brighton, Norton, East
Haven, and all the unorganized towns
and cores in the county. The judges
salary is fixed at $500, and the judge ia
the present judge of probate for thi,
district, and lawyer, but by no means
of the shack" variety. The promoters
of the bill to establish this court had
three objects, at least, in view: to OK.
pedite the administration OF Justice; to
settle grave question of venue likely to
arise in the prosecution of minor Of
fences occurring in the aunorganized
territory, which, during the winter
mouths, contains large number Of lum-
hermen; to save the state expense
Respecting the last object, the first day
the law went into effect there arose a
situation that, had the bill got through
the judiciary committee as it was origi
nally drawn, would have saved the state
at least cne-third, of the judges salary
A young man was ready to plead guilty
and receive his sentence for arson. The
original provisions of the bill woult
have permitted him to do so. As it i,
now, he will remain in Jail till late il
April.
We expect our municipal court to &C
complish all three objects aimed at, anc
we regret anyone's state of mind ~ht
cin see nothing but dishonest motives
in new ventures.

To relieve the worst forms OF
Rheumatism, take teaspoonful of
the following mixture after each meal
and al bedtime;
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce ; Compound Kargon, ! ounce ;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
These harmless ingredients can be
obtained from our home druggists.
and are easily mixed by shaking
them we'll in bottle. Reliefis gen.
orally felt from the first few doses.
This prescription forces the clog
ged ur, inactive kidneys to filter and
strain from the blood the poisonous
waste matter and uric acid, which
causes Rheumatism.
AS Rheumatism is not only the
most painful and tortuous disease,
but dangerous to life, this simple re-
cipe will no doubt be greatly valued
by many sufferers here at home, who
should at once prepare the mixture
to get this relief.
Il is said that a person who would
take this prescription regularly, a
dose or two daily, or even few
times week, would never have seri-
GUS Kidney OF Urinary disorders or
Rheumatism.
Cut this out and preserve it. Good
Rheumatism prescriptions which re-
ally relieve are scarce, indeed, and
when you need It, you want it badly.
Princess Flour is easy to bake.
