Thsre ought 70 b Z change IL the
judicial department Of the state Of
Colorado. II VIII require . consti-
tutional amendment TO bring Il
about. Il viii be necsssary to sub
nit the ansndmsat BY petition. BE-
cause IT. submiasion can never be
secured from the legislature. There
are too many politicians who are In
terested IN the maintenance Of the
present system. Because II is derir-
able that the measure be submitted
at the next general election. I deem
II timely to discuss the proposed
changes at this time.
II is proposed TO abolish the pres
ent district and county courts. and
establish in their place . superior
sourt Of general Jurisdiction In each
county. Likewise II In proposed that
the office Of district attorney be dis
continued and the duties OF that Of
flee devolved upon the county attor-
ney. who is to be an elective officer.
and whose title will be county and
prosecuting attorney. The smaller
counties. unable to support . superior
court. will be attached to larger
counties for judicial purposes.
I am informed that this was part
Of the program Of Governor Carlson.
but that in the stress attending the
passage Of prohibition legislation and
other important matters. he was un-
able TO get II before the legislature.
The principal benefit TO accrue
from the change. IL that II will make
accessible to the people OF all Of the
counties Of the state. . court Of un-
limited Jurisdiction. II will place
the probate business OF the state In
charge Of men Of legal training. In
. considerable number Of the coun-
ties the office Of county Judge is held
by laymen. and In these counties. the
business Of that court Is usually in .
backward state. The records are
poorly kept. estates are neglected.
and the interests Of people who have
business with the court suffers.
The proposed change would give
TO each county. except . few Of the
smaller counties. attached 70 larger
counties for judicial psrposss. . resi-
dealt .jnass. Who would at al times
b seeessibls to litisants and attor-
neys. The Judge would IN all cases
BE- . lawyer and not . layman. and
the office would b m charge Of .
compstsnt clerk. TIE records would
b better kept and the interests Of
people having business with the
eourt would not suffer from insttsn-
ton. Probate business would have

There's life In the old Joke yet as
1t was sprung in the Friars Minstrels
at the Frolic held last night at the
New Amsterdam Theatre. Thor
oughly entertaining from first to last,
the Frolic scored a huge success. 1t
wan full OF the dash and spirit OF
George NJ. Cohan. who was the life
and soul Of the entertainment. ana II
delighted an audience that packed
the theatre.
The minstrel first part was a whole
show In itself. 1t was n clever Idea
on the part Of Mr.. Cohan TO have
each performer announce himself in
the mots enthusiastic terms. For ex-
ample. Andrew Mack stepped for
ward to say that Andrew Macks
greatest song. Mister Moon" by An
drew, son Of Mrs. Mack. would be
rendered by the famous singing light
comedian, Andrew Mack. And SO II
went. With Frank Tinney, Neil
O'Brien, George NJ. Cohan and Will
ian Collier among the endmen. there
1 was no end of fun. Some one said
De Wolf Hopper didn't have a mean
hair in his head, and when James ].
/ Corbett declared that a lie had never
passed George NJ. Cohans lips, Mr..
Tinney said: Il know, he talks
{ through his nose" That veteran
minstrel. George Primrose. danced
with his old time lightness and grace,
and later Doyle and Dixon, and Co
/ han and Collier. who assured the au-
/ dience that they were once more the
best Of friends, left nothing to be de-
sired IN the way of dancing.
In n one-act minstrel sketch, "The
| Bold. Brave Black and Tans," George
I Sidney was ridiculously funny
villa, while Neil OBrien as a de-
sertcr and Edward Garvie as a trust
ing landlady helped to keep the house
in roars OF laughter. Harry Fraser
did n clever bit OF work in tho role
Of Susaretta. n lady of temperament
who adored villa, in spite of the fact
that he was rather rought with her.
''The Melody Makers" brought out
a number OF song writer's. who seated
themselves Mt pianos. BY way Of
giving variety to their song Irving
Berlin and Harry Carroll turned
handsprings to the intense delight
Of their admirers.

NEW BASEBALL
LEAGUE is PLANNED
Organization to Fill in Where
Tristate Left Off Is
a Possibility

ALLENTOWN, Pa. Jan. 1.-If the plans
of "Al' Lawson, promoter of the Allan
tic League In 1907, do not go astray, loyal
baseball fans who have been disconsolate
since the demise of the Tristate League
will be gladdened by the organization of
new eight-team circuit this spring.
The baseball appetites of these minor
league fans are whetted by Lawson's an
nouncement that n new league is to be
a reality. He names IA towns from which
the circuit can be chosen. They are
Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, Reading.
Pottsville, Paterson. Elizabeth, Perth
AmbOy, Trenton Chester, Wilmington,
York, Lancaster and Harrisburg. Eight
of the towns mentioned are former Tri-
state League towns. II Wilmington is in
cluded in the final makeup of the circuit
Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sey will again be represented by an aggre-
CATION of national pastimers.
But in the boiling down of the pros
poets to eight towns Lawson does not
include Wilmington In his first choice
of eight clubs he names Allentown, Beth
lehem, Easton, Reading, Perth Amboy
and Pottsyille. He points out that Sunday
ball can be played in four of these towns,
namely, Paterson, Elizabeth, Perth Am
boy and Pottsville. In the declining DAYS
of the Tri-State Sunday ball was played
in Pottsville TO good monetary advantage
Lawson says he doesn't know whether
the new league which Is in the making
will be under the protection of organized
ball and. what's more. he says he doesn't
care. He advances the opinion that the
declaration OF peace in the baseball war
is going to put a number of hlgh-class
players on the market and they will nor
hold out for fancy salaries
