itradley of I-Vbruary has creafd n'lite a bit -f talk among citig4-tns interested in ti next ion at issue. Count) Judge R. Stetnns l.ad this tu say relative to the nii. i tfr I have rrad with much lntereft tiie remarks of Judge Tom C. Bradley lu your of last Sunday against graft I l.i-v that graft exists in Texas in the Fed.

ral. State, county and municipal govt-ruments and in business clrcUs. It i vi-ry probable that there are some manhipal nil county governments from this evil, but It exists in every Sin: a tn! In every county tliat I have heard from on the graft subject. 1 believe we have Ic-js graft In Texas than they haive in many other States, and I believe th.it by projier vigilance on the part of our honest citizens this evil can be eradicated from our State, county and muni'-ipal government, and with proper from other States we drive out the Federal grafter 1 lieve the judge is earnestly fighting graft win f.ev er he re.jogutxes it as such, but. in inv op! nor.

he does not go far enough, his d.fmiti..n of graft is evidently not cuinpr: hens! -j I would dislike to say anything that might in an way embarrass Jadg- Bradley a graft fighter, hi.t I can not refrain from i bailer git ig his propositiuii that it is right fi-i a oi.nty judge to enter judgments of guilfy on a mere agreement i -taeen tiie -rCjiity attorney and the de tain ana then collect from the vouuty 1 for each criminal rase ilm- if. In speaking of this matter, after entt-m. rating -lrcumstan-es under wh Judge would be authorized to render a juoment -ft "not guilty." Judge Bradley hat he fa authorised to render Judgments -pf '-guilty" or "not guilty" in al othr liiFtancea where there is au agn-ement between the defendant and tiie St. u- that the court shall enter certain v-di--t of guilty and certain verdicts of not guilty, aud under those circumstances th- judge is entitled to his fees, if this piatti-. which he says prevails in hiH court, should be accepted as a throughout our Slate It would op.

up a rich field the grafter, our law allows the county ludrze a of S3 to be paid by the count for criminal case "tried and finally disposed of." A plea of guilty Is a trial, be-a in. It is a confession of guilt tn open i out by the defendant, or some one representing dim, but I can not agree with mv friend Bradley that an agreement betwwen the county attorney and the defendant that a judgment of "not guilty should be entered in a case constitutes a triai within the meaning of the law or common sense. I believe the records of the courts of xas will show more cases is iss. than "tried and finally disposed of Some county attorneys file two cases against a violator of the law when the, facts would Justify but one case; and frequently It happens, as the county attorney hoped for. that a defendant cornea in and pleads guilty to one case under an agre-en-r-ent with the county attorney to dUmisfl the other case, and frequently the frojK prion of cases ''dismissed" even arger.

No one gets any fees fur the thousands of cases dismissed; these case cost the counties nothing. But suppone this practice was changed just a little, and instead of an agreement to "dismiss'1 the other cases an agreement should be made tbat a Judgment of "not guilty should be entered In the "other the counties would be robbed of vast sums, and many count Judges would, under the guise of judicial proceedings, become notorious grafters.
