"Who is Chicf Justice? oe
In local circles, says the Record,
. We frequently hear the e question asked, ‘‘Who is the Chief Justice of the
_ . Supreme Court?". Many seem to
think that it is Judge “Crockett, who
was appointed in place of Shafter,
resigned, as Shatter would have now
. mained upon the~bench. ~ The popj ular’ supposition is that agente was .
at the)
. next judicial election_ after his ap-.

in truth, there is no such thing as at

whether the same was evidenced by
bond and mortgage, or deed and defeasance, the plaintiff's attorney is
hereby authorized to cause to be dismissed, the defendant“first paying
sum to said attorney for his services
as attorney for plaintiff.” This bill .
is substantially the same as the odi.

dismissal of suits: which are now .

This is the way in which the legal
fraternity put the matter up, as we
understand, and is‘certainly the position, in which it is fixed by the
Goxistitiation. Consequently, Royal
T. Sprague will be.Chief Justice
until the end of 1877. ‘The question
will then arise whether Wallace or
Crockett shall succeed him—their
terms being equal. The ‘same ques-'
tion will arise between Niles and
Rhodes at the—eommencement—of
1880. °
If Niles and Crockett followed the
terms of their resigning predecessors, +
the terms of the various Justices
would expire as follows:
~Crockett—Jan. 1, 1874.
Niles—Jan. 1, 1876.
Sprague—Jan. 1, 1878.
Wallace—Jan. 1, 1880,
’ Rhodes —Jan. 1,1882.

Sprague. As itis, the latter Judge
will probably be Chief Justice for
