THE 1908 CASE.

The Supreme Court, last Satur-
day, in a lengthy opinion, nnani-
mously agreed to advance the 1908
case on the docket. The argument
on advancing the case commenced
on Tuesday of last week, and was of
considerable interest. The american
says "the pertinacity with which the
compliments opposed the advance
ment, when such action, in such a
case, was matter Of course, show
ed that they regarded the dismissal
of their bill as also a matter of
course, in case the court advanced
and tried it. The object was delay,
and no lawyer has ever supposed
that the case could have termina-
ton other than unfavorable to the
ccmplainants. This is a practical
disposition Of the case. Ingenuity
may not yet be exhausted, but eff
fective ingenuity is already exhaust
ed. This is a practical disposition
of the SOL nonsense. The question
before the people will be whether to
reopen by idle and dangerous and
destructive agitation a settled issue,
or to accept a wise and just settle
ment, even if it is not to every man
precisely what he would have had.
By consent of counsel, the hearing
on the constitutionality of the bill is
set for January 18th.
1t would, of course, be premature
to say that the mere advancing of
so important a cause upon the dock
ct signifies that the court will de-
eide the cause the one way or the |
other. But it is not premature to
say that the repudiationists, through |
their counsel, bitterly opposed the
motion. It is very evident that they
fear the result of a hearing Of the
case. Another fact is patent. That
fact is that the judges of the Su-
preme Court are not going to shirk
their duty, or be governed by what
may appear to be popular clamor.
We are To have the question as to
whether the State debt is to be fund
ID at 1908, decided within a very
ew weeks We believe that the de
:ision to advance the cause on the
loclzet does indicate that the court
viii decide in favor of the constitu-
ionality of the law; for the reason
hat this sort of decision takes the
natter out of politics, while, to de-
ide the law unconstitutional, or not
D decide it at all, would have ex-
city the same effect-that Of open

PARTY SPECULATTONS ABOUT
THE SOUTH

Washington Special to the New York Post.
One subject which is attracting
very general attention among poll
ticians, and which bids fair soon to
become a matter of practical impor-
lance, is the one of Independent
parties in the South. In the opinion
Of many shrewd observers, the next
two years will see a radical change
in the position and composition of
parties at the South The white
vote, and to some extent the negro
vote, all through that section will
be divided. Up to this time the dis
sensions have been merely local, but
by 1884 the leaders IN the new
movement mean to take common
ground, and and enter as a potent
factor into national politics.
There are "watchmen in the
mountains" who claim to discern in
all this a cloud no bigger than a
mans hand, and that hand Blaine's
as between a stalwart candidate
like Grant, Arthur, or some repre-
sentative Of their wing ofrepublican-
ism on the one side, and an orthodox
Democratic candidate on the other.

A MISTAKEN IDEA.

This idea Of becoming an account
ant in three months and less time
has produced damaging results. 1t
has caused many business men to
look with contempt on Business Col
leges, as they believed il impossible
for young men to thoroughly master
the commercial branches in so short
a time; and young men themselves,
who attend College so short n time.
generally go home feeling afraid to
risk themselves in business or with
firms books. IT would be better
not to have a cent of their money
than to take part of it, and not sui
ticientIy qualify thema accountants
that they may be able to earn back
the money invested in their bust
ness education.
Time ReQuired.-The time re
quired complete the Course depends
entirely upon the Students applica-
ton and ability. A Student who
completes in four months is a bright
student, and has wasted no time. No
student need be discouraged in five
months, for that's a reasonable time.
While any Student who expects to
do much, when he comes in contact
with the active business world, |
ought to complete in six months. !
