MoaE couNrY COURT.

The bar association Is to petition

PAYERS o, Lee county It Is Just as
well that measures tending to the
strictest economy be practiced instead
Of increasing the already heavy bur
den. 1t Is stated to this paper that
Des Moines county 10 not expanding a
dollar for widows pensions. while
Lee county Is expending something
like $4,000 yearly. We do not give
these figures as being correct as we
have not the facts at hand. but we
are setting the figures There is al
together too much wasted time In the
operation Of courts-not only in Lee
county but In all counties-and the
expense Of this delay is borne by the
tax payer. With two judges to hear
cases and with four terms OF court
and some OF them very long ones. II
would appear that not only the de-
veiopinK business should be speedily
disposed OF. but many Of the old
cases that have been on docket for
years and years. There is no politi-
cal contest on in Lee county at this
time and 1t IL opportune now TO dis
