AN UNUSUAL JUDGE.

The announcement; by Judge Bar
~ Miller OF Dallas that he will ask
the legislature TO abolish the Grim
inal district court over which ne pre-
sides is remarkable in two particu-
lars.
First, it exhibits unselfishness OF
a rare kind. There are few men who
voluntarily surrender public station.
though now and then efficient public
servants are persuaded to retire for
reasons Of material prosperity. Judge
Miller doubtless can make more
money in the practice OF law than
ne receives on the bench; as we re-
member he was reluctant 20 accept
appointment by Governor Colquitt
and to receive the nomination which
his fellow citizens thrust upon him
Still, his personal fortune is such
that he could well afford the service
II he deemed it needful to the pub
lie, and the reputation he has won
by his vigorous enforcement Of the
law no doubt is a matter Of graft
fication.
Second the announcement is in
some respects an adverse commen-
tary upon our court system, ioc Judge
Miller has demonstrated that by dill
igence and vigor a court may do
more businss than the average court
is accustomed to do. At least in this
case he has proved that a situation
of apparent congestion in the courts

Perhaps We need reform in the
methods of trial judges as much as

can do things more quickly, though
none the less thoroughly and cor
rectly, than other men. The trial

of high character, ability and fl,

that they could study Judge Miller's
methods with profit to the state.
Anyhow, it is gratifying fac.
that for one reason or another the
state may dispense with one or its
trial courts. Simplifying procedure
will enable the state to dispense
with others.-Fort Worth Record.
