All rta beglven allowed as the facts demand. JudSe begins, and oblige, But suppose JudgeStrongand the Attorney General are right in their construction of the law, the fact remains that Judge Strong per formed no service for Wake county for two months ending May 12th ; during this time he was practicing law and making money by hi8 profession. If Judge Strong had ta ken the oath of office on the day he was elec ted Judge, he could not have practiced law after that day ; inasmuch as he did practice and reaped the rewards of that practice and rendered Wake county no service until the D 12th of May, he was not entitled to demand and receive pay of the people of this c unty ior time wnicn ne had spent in attending to his private practice as a lawyer This certainly would have been equity upon the principle that no man is entitled to re ceive compensation for services which have not been performed. Upon this ground Judge Strong must Have known that he was not entitled to pay from March 12th to May 12th, because Wake county "had received nothing therefor.

We exceedingly regret that we cannot altogether concur with his views. That act provides exn. ly that the Judge of the Criminal Court shall not practice law while Judge. Now from the 10th of March to the 5th of May he was either a Judge or not a Judge. If he was J udge, he infringed the act b v ing his profession during that time.
