Comments Record
 of Judge Stiles

rThe outstanding characteristic ot the administration of Judge J. F. Stiles has been his willingness at all times and hours to give careful attention to the troubles of all citi- zens," said J. Wiley Logan yester- day. e1t was rare indeed that any one could visit his office without finding the judge listening carefully to the business of some aged woman. some gray-haired Confederate vel eran. some timid widow. or some per fectly bodied, young man, all alike. helpless and able, old and young. male and female, finding in his advice a safe and sane solution of their particular difficulties.
 Though, under our laws, pro- hate judge is not required to be an attorney. Judge stiles has had so much experience with the laws of wills and administrations, and the multitude of other laws given the probate office to administer. that his opinions in such matters are soundef than those of most attorneys. No in stance is known in which he has been found to have administered any law either enormously or negligently, ana the aDSOIutc hOHCSNy anu OPci- ness of his administration has been as constant as his unfailing good nature.
 Out of the ST probate judges ir the state, hs office has been found by the state examiners of public ac- counts to be the best administered and to have the best and clearest records, and this in spite of the fact that he has by far the greatest vol ume of work. Jefferson county has so much business that the work of it's probate office is probably As voluminous as any average 10 others. but with this burden to carry Judge Stiles has still led the field in eff ciency and clarity of his records.
 "The finest justification of the salary system of payment is In the administration of Judge Stiles. be- cause the efficiency of his work and the degree of his personal attention and care have been exactly the same under the salary system as under the foe system, and 1t is impossible for anyone to distinguish the slightest difference in the office since the com pensation of the judge has been more than cut in half.
 "All in all. out of hundreds of public officers all over the state of Alabama. Judge Stiles is admitted by all who value efficiency and personal attention to duty to be one of the haif-dozen best public officials in the state"
