Wednesday, December 14, II BLY--Dale B. "Snuffy" Smith who died Sunday in a car accl dent, may have been the last of a long line of justices who presided in Sprague River Justice Court here. Gov. Mark Hatfield, when que ried Wednesday morning, said he will appoint a justice of the peace to replace Smith providing the county court wants the office con tinued. He said1 he has written the court to ask about continuation of the office. The court was scheduled to meet In regular ses sion Wednesday morning. One county commissioner said that at first glance abolition of the justice court here would ap pear to be the economical thing to do. He indicated final judgment would depend on further study. Meanwhile, B 1 y residents formed hastily for a counterattack when they learned late Tuesday of the possible abolition of their court. They contrived a petition and obtained 17 signatures Tuesday night for presentation to the county court Wednesday asking that discussion concerning t h e court be held over until the regu lar meeting Friday. The county court during its morning session asked District At torney Dale Crabtree to look up laws governing whether abolition of a justice court is within the province of the county court, whether the governor at his own discretion may or may not abol ish the court, and whether the governor need ask the county court for its recommendation Crabtree was deep in his search just before noon. One way or the other, said County Court Judge Robert Walk er, the issue will require a lot of discussion and study before it is resolved. He said the issue is too young for action today and that it cer tainly will be discussed at Fri day's meeting. At least two Bly residents in dicated they were planning to at tend the. county court meeting. They contend that ' a court should be maintained to serve the residents of 1 Bly, Beatty and Sprague River. Without it they would have to come to Klamath Falls . for . court .scrvjee , So far during , 1960, the court has handled 92 cases and has taken in $1,558.90. The Bly jus tice of the peace receives a 'sal ary of $2,800 annually. Smith was killed instantly early Sunday morning on Ivory Pine Road when his car pitched over an embankment and pinned him beneath it. Sheriff Murray "Red" Brltlon who investigated the accident with deputies said Smith apparently icii asiccp at tne wneei. 1 .
