clared that his government will buy or
build no more grain elevators in this
Province. For the last elevator year on
which his commission reported the loss

interest on one million dollars of capital
invested at per cent, taxes of 90. 600
allowed municipalities, and depreciation
and the loss would total over 600, 600

The Pink Paper comes out this week
witha q strong article against increase
jurisdiction Of the county court, claim
ing that the district Judge is amply able
to take care of all court matters in this,
one of the smallest judicial districts in
the state. A petition is being circulated
throughout the county to extend the
duties of the county Judge, which has
been signed without giving the matter
much thought. The Pioneer Express
has not given the matter much con-
sideration, but we belive that it the juris-
diction of the county court is increased
the time has come when practlcing
attorney, who is admitted 10 the bar
with all the qualifications OF iurist, is
the only person who can occupy the
county. judges chair.
