Some people look upon a judge a being somewhat of nn oracle; others merely think them human beings, whose judgment is absolutely infallible Through our experience we iind they are simply human, and tho leading characteristics of tlie judge of this district are his unquestioned and unequalled ability so continue cases from one term to another on the most trivial excuses. If he was to continue iu his present office wo feel safe to say many jury cases would be prolonged laded nitely. The judge of tin's district gets a salary, of fjy'HM) a year for hearing and determining causes and administering jus tiee between parties.

When he allows, cases to be put off from term to term without ample excuse ho certainly is. not doing his duty. There is a limit to continuing cases, in court, and there is, -or ought to be, sufficient excuse before a case could bo continued even one term, much less a repealed continuance.
