HE WANTS NONE.
Crawford, of Union, Is Against Court
Commissioners.
Hon, T. H. Crawford, of Union, a
prominent attorney 'and democratic
politician of the state, speaking of the
volume of business handled by the su
preme court, and in regard to the bill
before the last legislature to create
two or three commissioners of the
court, said to a Portland Journal rep
resentative: "I am In favor of increasing the su
preme court itself, but I don't want
to see an appointive side show created.
If the business of the court has in
creased In volume sufficient to jus
tify an addition to the court, I believe
the legislature should relieve the sit
uation. But as to these proposed com.
missionera, they would not assist the
court. The duties, of the supreme
Judges are fixed by the constitution
and no commissioner can bo given
power by the legislature to discharge
the duties of a Judge. Theso com
missioners, proposed by that bill, could
only review cases before the court,
but could give no decision. The Judges
would be compelled to go over the
cases in person before rendering an
intelligent and legal decision. En
largo the court itself, by constitutional
change, but don't build any more
nests to be feathered at the people's
expense.
