We're again continued for another
six months; after trial was final
ly obtained the defendants were
found to be innocent. Yet, they
had been in Jail for a year and
sometimes for a year and a half
begging for a trial. During all
of which time the county had to
pay for their custody. they were
wrongfully deprived of their lib
erty, their family was deprived of
their support and comfort, and
though proven innocent at the
trial, they had no redress. These
things could not have happened if
there had been a Criminal Court
of Record in Monroe County at
that time.
Because of its geographical posi-
ton. Monroe County. more than
any other county in the state,
needs a Criminal Court of Record
to protect our people and safely
guard their constitutional rights
and privileges.
During the election to be held
on the 9th of next month, our
citizens are asked to vote for or
against the adoption of constitu-
tional amendment. If this amend
ment is carried we will lose our
circuit court. At the same cleo
ton we will vote whether to abol-
ism or retain our Criminal Court
of Record. If the Circuit Court
is abolished. and it looks like it
will be, are we going to be foolish
enough to abolish our Criminal
Court and thus deprive ourselves
of all courts capable of admins
trating law and justice
If we abolish the Criminal
Court. then our county will have
three justice of peace courts
functiOning daily, each of which,
in my opinion. will be of more ex-
pense to the county than the Grim
inal Court ever has been.
Our Criminal Court holds six
terms a year. During each term

This jury money saves many a
family from actual want and suf-

1t is a much needed payroll. es-
peciaIly in these times of lack OF
employment. and it costs the cOun-
" nothing. Do we want to lose
this payroll? Can we afford to
lose It?
Abolish the Criminal Court and
you will find after the damage is
beyond repair, that you have saw
ed nothing. but. on the contrary,
you will have lost a considerable
and much needed source of legiti-
: mate income; for 1 do not believe
the millage assessed for admins
tering criminal law throughout the
state will be reduced; we will still
have to pay the same taxes; and
we will find that we have given
