Ever since statehood the bench in
this district was occupied by the Hon.

occurred early this spring.
When Judge Winchester first occu-
pied the bench his district comprised
the greater portion of the western

many hardships and privations in
travelling over his extended jurisdic.

assisting with the enforcement Of

Emmons, and in every one OF these
