Strict enforcement of the laws. A full hear

respecter of persons; all are equal before the
court:-Therefore there must be absolute impair
tiality as between itgants. Defeated and dis
satisfied litigants to be furnished the most ample
opportunity to appeal.
Courtesy to litigants, lawyers and jurors
alike. Making the labor of the juror as free from
burdens as possible Decisions to be based upon
testimony offered In court and not upon street
corner talk. Decisions to be given promptly. The
business Of Trail and Steele Counties should have
as close and prompt attention as that of Cass.
A wise administration of the Criminal law
Reformation Of the errlng one and not cruel pun

penalties given as will insure obedience to the

Youthful delinquents and neglected children
furnish problem peculiarly their own. A wise
development of the Juvenile Court in harmony
with all modern methods. Constant working
with the parents and teachers to bring the best
out of the child. Save and not destroy the child
should be the motto.
The greatest efficiency with the least ex-
pense in running the court Ample notice to be
given of the trial of cases-so-called snap judg-

one day for the pupils of the High School Some
times as high as 100 at a time have taken advan-

While precedents involving rights of the in
dividual and his property should not be torn down
to his hurt, yet they ought not to be blindly fol-

open one. Decisions not to be given IN advance
of full presentation of the case.
ALI statutes passed by the legislature are pre-
sumed to be constitutional and should not be set
aside, unless the evidence of their being unconsti
