NeWs of Ensley

Doke Ayres, negro, was arrested yes terday afternoon by Detectives Wiggins and Granger, charged with robbng a box car on the Frisco road at Pratt City Fri day night. It is alleged that he stole sey- eral pairs of shoes. When arrested he had six pairs in his possession. It is stated that he confessed to the robbery. The officers also made an important catch in the person of Will Lewis, alias Joe Reed, charged with highway robbery. II is alleged that Lewis and another negro held up, beat and robbed Tom Rowland and Shake Porter at the Kansas City crossing Thursday night. Rowland and Porter identified Lewis as one of the men
 who held them up. Lewis is a ''strange nigger' in this section. The officers are positive they have the right man and they are of the opinion that he is one of gang of highwaymen that have been operating extensively in the Ensley district recently. Lewis and Ayres will be tried before Judge Roe this morning.

Abuses in Judicial System

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 The timely article published recently in
 The Age-Herald relative to the municipal
 court of Chicago induces me to make
 some suggestions along the line of relief from some of the conditions that exist in
 our local judicial system.
 In this county we have city cour, with four judges who exercise civil and chancery Jurisdictions a circuit court with two judges who exercise civil and chan cery jurisdiction and the court has crim- inal jurisdiction with all the power and
 machinery of criminal court whcih it does not exercise.
 We have criminal court with two judges with jurisdiction confined to crlm-
 inal cases. Then the chancery court with one chancellor. and q probate court with | one judge making ID judges sitting in | Birmingham besides the court of common | pleas, presided over by Judges Benners and Abernethy
 The creation of this latter court, or l rather it's predecessor, the inferior court | of Birmingham. was occasioned by the
 abuses that grew up under the justice of
 the peace system and the payment for ! judicial services in fees and costs The abolition of the fee system in this 1 court is only partial but the court has 1 been 8 great success. and a great relief
 from ntolerabe conditions. The judges and clerks are on a salary, but the eon-
 stable is paid under the fee system. The municipal court of Chicago was the
 outgrowth of demand for the reform of the justice courts, and for more facilities
 for the vast and ever increasing volume
 of damage suits. In Chicago the superior court and circuit courts with q large number of judges, each exercise the same jurisdiction as our city and circuit court.
 Birmingham and Jefferson county need one court of general jurisdiction with one clerk on a moderate salary.
 The high class men who in groa. num-
 bers stand for every election of members for the Board of Revenue indicates that
 we would have no trouble in securing a
 clerk for this court at an adequate salary The creation of this court would to a large extent do away with the evils of the
 fee systJem. The s50.0o0 net estimated fees
 of the four courts would either be turned into the tveasury or the costs bills could be so reduced that the burden on the | litigants would not be so heavy. The in- centive for cost creating delays would dis. appear. The cost to the county of main
