OUR JUDICIAL SYSTEM.
t —, For Press Association. Dunedin, Juno 19. A prominent member of tho legal profession resident in Dunedin, when seon in regard to tho Attorney-Genoral'B proposal which might mean the abolition of district courts and provision for a moro continuous Court of Appeal, said ho took it that Dr Findlay'a idea was probably to mako Wellington the headquarters of judges, who would reside there. One judgo, say, would go on circuit in tho North Island and another on circuit in tho South Island,. ! following very much on tho lino of custom I prevailing in England. Tho other judges ' would remain in Wellington, and could take court work' there, and alho tho Court of Appeal. If this waa tho intontlon of tho Attorncv-Goncral, it would mean that many of the colony's leading advocates*'would have to reside in Wellington, and follow the judges on circuit.
