the contract is binding only until

Else why should there be such great
competition among the French and

MORE JUDGES NEEDED ON THE
SUPREME BENCH.

Several amendments to the consti-
tuition of Idaho will be submitted to
the voters in the coming election and
all should receive careful considera-
ton by every citizen before he or she
enters the voting booth. One of these
is of special interest and the Miner is
convinced that it should be adopted.
It is the amendment increasing the
number of justices of the supreme
court from three to five. The consti-
tuition as adopted thirty years ago
when Idaho was admitted into the
union provided for three justices.
Since that time the population has
trebled, while the business and in
dustrial affairs have expanded to an
even greater extent. This means of
course that litigation has increased !
and is reflected in the |
appeal to the supreme court In JUS /
tice to litigants. the supreme court |
can not hurry decisions in cases IN
der consideration. References must be
examined and time taken for deliber-
alton and preparation of opinions. For
his reason it is impossible for the
court as now constituted to dispose of
Eases within a reasonable time, re-
iulting in delays which the court is
,owerless to avoid, and having the
fleet of denial of justice to Htigants.
It is this situation that prompted Z
he last legislature to submit an
amendment to the constitution, for :
by the voters providing
