By the adoption of the new constitution, in 1879, the district and county courts were abolished, and supplanted by the superior court with the same jurisdiction of both the others. At the election in the fall of 1879, D. H. Cowden was the republican candidate for superior judge of Sierra county, and A. J. Howe was the democratic nominee for the place. The latter was successful over his opponent by a party vote, and immediately entered upon his official duties. Judge Howe holds the office until 1884, when his successor is qualified.
