WEST The movement will. be revived at the session of the Rhode Island leg- islatore which convenes next month, to make Westerly a real shiere town on full par with Kingston, where the superior court now convenes, and. at the option of the presiding judge, ad- journed sessions are held at Westerly. An effort” has been unsuccessfully made to have the sessions of the su- perior court for ‘Washington. county held alternately at. Kingston and Westerly, including motion days, just as prevails in New London county. wnere the court alternates in Norwich and New London. This mat- ter has been before several sessions of the legislature, but Westerly has lacked the political influence to br.ng about the change. The ' Kingston section of the county is opposed 'to the change and, in addition to the political influence, the - legisiators are tald that the court' doings would be seriously hampered ehould there be a change. and it ‘would be a bur- den on the clerk 'to have the court records transferred with the travel-of the court. But this little thing is done between Norwich and New London and the inconvenience is not|n cosidered appreclable.

'NORWICH BULLETIN, T i county was being considered, it was decidéd to locate the building in Kingston which was considered the geographical center of ‘ae. county. The place -1 far removed: from the center of population, and'there i§ no accommodat.ons’ there for the ‘court officials, the jury, the’principals and witnesses, as cowapared with the ac- commodations at Westerly. There is not even a restaurant in Kingston-and in cases where the jurors are kept t0- gether, the only accommodation ‘for them is at the Kingston jall. There is not a hotel in the place.” As a.matten of fact the only -ealpoints of inte- rest conrected with™ the ‘place s 10 court house, the jail and the fajr grounds. Conditions aro: different”in Westerly. i ‘Westerly being the most populous town in the county and more, cityfied than all the other .towns combined, naturally . furnishes a great majority of the cases brought to tho superior court, which ought to be argument sufficient to bring about the desired change -in court sessions. The state has been at the expense of building and equipping a-modern court. house in conjunction with the Westerly town with the evident purpose that it was to be utilized. to the fullest ex- tent. which can only be done by the holding. of alternate sessions of the court, the court at the ~ sesS'ons at TThetatly to ‘have thé 'Safife jurisdic- all court matters that now il ‘at Kingston Politics. have 2 tha preventative in the pae: New . the| olishment industry, i 1nterestes 2 large vora men of ve, according to report, an- option on the large tract of land cwned by Burnside Babcock on both sides. of] the boundary on the one Rock road, the Pawcatuck e property. desir- for * the ded purpose..
