SYSTEMOF
the legislature so decides. An addi
tional -, appellate -department of: the
circuit court may be provided for. The
whole judicial system of the state may
be altered at the will of the legislature
or of the people.-
Kay Add justices. .:
; A. R Clark, one of the leading law
yers- of the Multnomah bar, has paid
close attention to : the amendment and
yesterday 'afternoon he told of some
of the things that he had discovered
as a result -of his study. -
Under the old constitution, m Arti
cle VII, it4 was provided that, the Ju-1
diclal power , of ? the state- should J be
vested in a supreme court, .circuit courts
and county courts. It was! also, provided
that the. number or supreme justices
should be limited; to five. ,
' The amendment adopted at , the -recent
election provide that the Judic
ial powerof, the state shall.be vested
"in one aunreme court ' and.' in such
other courts as may from tj me to time
b created by law." ? Tne section relat
ing to the number of Justices, Is abro
galed. "
. Accordingly, It, IS now possible for
the, legislators or the people of the
state to add new Justices to the supreme
court at any session of th legislature
or , at .any- general . election., It is also
possible to create an '"appellate dtvts
ion" of the circuit court, or to create
an entirely new appellate court, at any
session , of the legislature or ..at any
general election.' , ,
' tawysrs Criticise System. ' '.
In other words, it is now possible,
under "the- new. amendment to the con
stitution, for the legislature or ,the peo
ple to remodel the judicial department
of the state after the plan of the fed
eral courts, where ' there is a circuit
court a circuit court of ; appeals com
posed of. designated Justices of the cir
cuit courts, and a supreme court.
, New, York has this plan, and Califor
nia and a number of other states, but
tnls system meets , with the criticism of
many leading lawyers. These contend
that: the designation ojc , circuit : court
judges to sit as Justices in the court
of appeals or the appellate division of
the circuit court does not produce the
best . results. They argue that for a
short time certain members of the cir
cuit bench - sit as appellate Judges and
pass upon the actions oi their colleagues
on the circuit bench.
- x . ravor Sew Court
: In turn, the other circuit court judges
are designated for, service in the ap
pellate: division and this tends to cause
thfr appellate division to look with too
kindly- eyes upon the appeals coming
up to. them for consideration . where an
unfriendly decision woula mean the re-
jrersal. of. a-.circuitjudga.
Another-plan, and this is favored by
Mr, Clark, - would be the creation by
law of ; an entirely new court, tobe
known as the appellate court to con
sist of three judges eiected ior ser
vice on the- appellate court beni-n alone.
The Jurisdiction" of this court could
be limited by-law to a crtaln class of

London, Dec 3. England , tonight
faces a legislative deadlock. -Today's
parliamentary - election fn ten liondon
and 64 provincial constituencies, em

ingly, indecisive.
It Is practically certain that the gov
ernment party, made up of the Liberals
and their, allies, will - retain their ma
jority, but that It will be so small as
to make an effective working combination-next
to impossiblo, thereby iresult
jng in "itjjyv expected deadlock. A com
promise will probably be effected, to
last through the- coronation of King
George, and immediately thereafter an
other general election seems inevitable.
Every effort will be made to etTect
this compromise in order to avoid trade
disruption during the coronation period.
Conservatives' Het Gain Ten.
Counting 'the 65 unopposed- returns
made yesterday . and today and prac
tically complete returns from the 69
constituencies today, the result Is: Con
servatives, 62; Liberals, 49; Laboritea,

This is a. total gain of 10 for the

Insufficient to, cause King: George to
transform the house of lords into a
Liberal body by the creation of enough
Liberal peers to change it complexion.
What the results will be should the
king refuse Premier Asquith's demand
for the swamping of the house of lords
with Liberal peers is problematical, but
the consensus of opinion tonight is that
the government party will hardly dare
to carry out Its threat of plunging the
country Into another general election.
Owing to the fact that in the total
