NEw-yoRK DAILY TRIBUNE, THURSDAY OCTOBER u

members was found unweldy aud is now re-
placed by a Court of Appeals of seven. The
gist of the Davis bill is to create eighteen addi
tional Circuit Judges, two in each circuit, and
to authorize the Circuit Justice and a Circuit
Judge and District Judge to hold an interme-
diate court in each circuit. To this plan Mr..
Maury objects that the multiplication of appel
late courts will derOgate from their dignity and
importance; the country will esteem them as a
higher order of circuit courts only, and will not
accept their decisions as equivalent to those of
the Supreme Court. Inevitably, decisions in
different circuit courts upon the same question
must differ New York lawyers who have fol .
lowed the judgments of the eight General Terms
of the State Supreme Court reported in Bar
bour's sixty-seven volumes win appreciate the
force of this objection. Lf a right of appeal be
given from the Circuit Court to the Supreme,
the Supreme Court will gain little if any relief
If none be given, these conflicting decisions
will soon destroy the uniformity of Federal
Jurisprudence. And he urges that the creation
of single appellate court to sit at Washington.
would protect the country from the serious in
convenience of jairing and discordant decisions
by numerous Superior Courts. 1t would, IN
deed, SIT in two divisions, but IA decision by one
would be followed by the other, as controlling
whenever the same question should arise.
Upon the whole Mr.. Maury's essay and bill
evince care, learning and experience, and his
plan is well worthy of considerations We do
not find mentioned in it the jurisdiction now
exercised by the Supreme Court over the Court
of Claims. Before moving the bill in Congress
it would be well to name the Court of Claims i'm
such manner as to show whether the plan con-
templates that all judgments OF that court shall
continue TO be reviewed by the Supreme Court,
at present or whether judgments under
$t0, 900 shall be taken to the Court of Federal
Appeals, in analogy to Mr.. Maury's general
nlnn.

Judge Key was appointed postma ster-General
because lie was representative Southern
Democrat He had been nurtured in that parity
and came into Office bringing the views of
public life and public duties, with the notions
OF party obligation and official responsibility
which are an essential part of Democratic train
ing. When the Star Route frauds were laid be-
fore him he treated them according to his old
ideas of party obligation, and not according to
the Republican practice. He reasoned by
Democratic methods. aud upon the ground that
exposure would hurt the party he hushed the
matter UP and let the swindlng go on. The
accession of new head of the Department, who
was Republican from principle and imbued
with Republican ideas, brought out at once the
difference between the two parties in the prac-
teal view taken by each of public abuses. The
Democrat instinctively decided to suppress in
vestigation for the good of the party the Re-
publican unhestatingly brought everything to
light and instituted reform in the full confidence
that nothing could hurt the party that was for
the good of the country. Each followed his
early political training; each illustrated the
spirit and the habit of his party. Bat isn't it
little remarkable that all investigations should
somehow lead up to Democrats door?

The Park Commissioners deserve credit for
two things-frst that they actually succeeded
in holding meeting yesterday which was not
like unto a bear garden; second, that an at
tempt was made TO carry out the suggestion
we made yesterday-that the future of Cen
trail Park should be made secure by the rein
statement of MessrS 0lmsted and Naw. But
these efforts met with nc success. MIR. Wales
first offered a resolution that MesSrs. OImsted
and Vaux be appointed consulting landscape
architects at a salary to be agreed upon, but
this was voted down Then Mr.. Wales offered
another resolution appointing Mr.. Vaux alone,
with stated salary, Mr.. Olmsted being al
ready nominally a consulting landscape archi-
tect, but this was also voted down. During
the discussion Mr.. MacLean intimated that
MeSsrs. Olmsted and Naux would not act to-
gether-which is the reverse of the belief of
various well-informed persons. The PROPOSE
ton to make Mr.. Yaux Mr. JOnes's successor.

tect to become q mere overseer, was, of course,

New-York tribune., 1881-10-27

A fact which is stated i'm our local columns
to-day shows what curious msapprehensions
have prevailed respecting the quantity .of
water consumed in extingushing fires The
Fire Department used during the year 1850
33, ,0OO, 900 gallons of water upon fires This
is only one-third OF a single days consump-
ton by the city, and a little more than one
third OF days supply. The quantity is seen
to be triiiing as compared with the total con-
sumption, and without Importance in any cou~
sideratiOn of the water problem. While the
addition OF temporary eXpedients for the
partial use of salt water is wise in the prAent
situation, and would become absolutely neces-
sary in water famine, there would seem TO be
no good reason for establishing, as has been
suggested, permanent apparatus of the kind to
save quantity of water which, under an ad
equate system of supply, would be mere
bagatelle Those who find it difficult to he
ieve that the figures given are correct, should
remember how quickly fires are extinguished
as rule and how small quantity of water
is actually used in doing it.
The ticket which has been agreed upon bv
the nominating committee appointed by the
Republican County Convention, and will
doubtless be ratified at adjourned session
of that Convention tonight, can fairly claim
the votes of independent citizens as better
than any other local ticket offered to the
voters of this city. There are Objectionable
men in the Republican organization, of course.
and unfit men are sometimes placed upon its
ticket But every citizen who las been in the
habit of using his eyes knows that in
this, and all great cities, by far the
largest proportion of the dangerous classes,
men unfit to control politics or hold Office, be-
long to the Democratic party. For this reason,
if for no other, the average citizen, who, what
ever his political opinions may be, is, in muni-
cipal affairs, only anxious that honest and capa-
BILE men should be appointed to office, will find
safety in making it IA rule to vote the Rcpub-
ican local ticket; and we believe that the
number of those who are governed by this
rule is not small. 1t is vindicated by the
ticket just agreed upon. Senator Forster the
nominee for District-Attoney, is q man of
courageous honesty, and is in the prime of
manhOOd-not, like the Democratic candidate,
advanced in years. Mr. Rollins the candidate
for Surrogate, has been for many years ac-
ISively connected with the offices of the United
States and New-YOrk District Attorneys, and
| is admirably qualified for the place. The rest
of the ticket, though not perhaps ideal, is so
far better than that of either of the Demo-
cratic factions that it ought to command the
support OF every independent voter.
New-York tribune., 1881-10-27

Tomorrow and Saturday are the last re-
naming days upon which voters will be able
to register Republican voters owe it to the
cause of good government both in city and
State to make special effort, not only to reg
lister themselves, but to arouse lukewarm
friends to do so also. The Republican party
has an exceptional opportunity in local politics
this year, owing to Democratic dissensions,
and the composition of both houses of the
Legislature, as well as of the greater part of
the State Government. is at stake. 1t is com
monty called an "off" year, but the results
depending upon the election are highly inn
pOrtant, especially as a Governor is to be
chosen next year. The registration thus far
shows much greater falling Off than there
was in the year following the Presidential
election of 1876, and there should be "A great
effort during the next two days TO stir up
inactive voters and bring the registration to
normal figures.

Mr.. Blaine's ncte in which he practically
says Hands of" to such European powers as
are disposed to meddle with the Panama canal
question, is received with disfavOr by The Lon
don Times, which reminds us that England "is
p" at once an Atlantic and Pacific power"
The oracle refuses to accept Mr.. Blaine's ruling,
holding that general compact to guarantee
the neutrality of the canal would be beneficial,
and that in this respect Panama and Nicaragua
are alike-a covert allusion to the Clayton-Bu-
wer treaty of bygone memory. While Mr..
Blaine's declaration is entirely satisfactory to
the American people. it is evident from the fore
going that emergencies may arise in which we
must be prepared to back it up by force,
or by that compulsion which nations sometimes
find sufficient without resorting TO acts of war.
Our position is in effect not unlike that of
Prince Gortschakoff when in 1871 he partly
annulled the treaty of Paris. The Powers
were restive under the change, but they had

ing attention to the fact that he has forced
the revelations to be made of which they said
he was afraid, and that he is steadily pushing
on in the same line without stopping to pay
any attention to his detractors.

Reading Fishing Party.

A fishing party consisting of eipb>
ty.two men, arrived at Chadd's Ford
junction, on the W. g. N. Railroad.
from Reading, on Wednesday eyens
ing and remained there until Thurs
day afternoon. They occupied two
passengers cars which were showed
into siding and left there to be used
as headquarters for them during their
stay. Every man was provided with
full accompaniment of fishing
tackle, consisting of rod, lines. has,
ket, etc. They had also with them
several servants, cooks and an
abundant supply of provisions. The
principal desire in the raid which so
formidable baud of the followers of

ed to make was the dlminuted suns
fish, for which Readipgites seem to
have particular liking and at the
rate they were catching them, with
bait and tackle specially adapted.
during their stay, it is estimated that
several thousand Of the speckled and
striped beauties found their way into
their baskets. On account of the in
tense heat in the cars, most of the
anglers slept on the banks of the
creek over night.
