Warrilck as manager of the Utah county fair is a wise move on the part of the fair board, and with his selection, arrangements for the fair are off to a running start. 1 ' The experience gained by Mr. Varnick in handlings .the j 1929 fair will, without question, stand him in good stead this year. The past has demonstrated that a new manager of the fair has much to learn, re-appointment of a capable man gives him, and the fair, just that much more advantage the second time. In J. T.

It usually takes, says Judge Douglas, about seventy days to bring a criminal to trial. -It should not, in most cases, take seventy hours. , The average, time for disposal of an appeal, by the 3upreme court; is thirteen months. It might just as well ba hirteen days. ' , After a criminal is found guilty it takes four months to uter judgment and sentence him.
