ministered.
stu, for years our Supreme Court has
been hundreds, and sometime since almost
Thousands Of Cases behind the docket. That
august tribunal, like MI human contrivances
can only do SO much work. And when the
cases go up faster than they can decide them
delay is the result, litigants are kept In un-
certainty Of their rights, the injured still
suffer their wrongs, and parties almost for-
get their claims and defence between the
trial below and final decision in the Court
OF last resort. Basis appealed In 1879, have
not yet been determined by the Supreme
Court.
This defect has been sought I'm various
ways to be remedied. At the last session of
the legislature Supreme court commission
was provided for, rs temporary relief to
the Supreme Courut, but that does not work
to the entire satisfaction OF its advocates; Its
decisions have to be examined by the Judges
of the Court, thereby taking the time which
ought to be devoted to the hearing and
discrimination Of causes. In fact, the posi-
tion Of the Supreme Court commissioners is
about the same as that OF head clerks, or
referees In Court Of chancery. The SUI
preme Court reviews, and anrms or reyerses
its decisions.
The legislators only passed that law As .
temporary expedient, - relief till some
thing better could, be devised, and that bet.
ter thing IL the constitut ional amendment to
be voted on. That amendment divides the
State into two, with power In General AS
sembly to create third, appellate districts,
with appeal to the Courts thereof from the
circuits In each district, and with appeal to
the Supreme Court from those appellate
Courts, limited. The Supreme Court also
shall have experimenting control over them
by nsdndGmus, prohibition, and certiOrdTi.
There are various other provisions which
we win not now notice, but would suggest
that every voter read the proposed amend
ment.
Its adoption will cause rights to be more
speedily determined, will cause fewer ap-
| peals to the Supreme Court, and will not be
expensive to the taxpayers. We favor its
adoption, and % do the legal fraternity, we
think.

The fine prospects for the winter

Improvement in the surrent wheat
market of the country. Through
varying slightly from time to time,
the stock of wheat in sight Ameri-
cans are nearly as large as they
were four months ago; and while
this condition of things continues,
speculatives influences have so far
proved powerless to create a boom.
With the new crop full of promise
the difficulties in the way of advan-
cling prices are apparently insur-
mountable The English markets,
which under present circumstances
control prices over here to almost
an unprecedented extent, are filled

proved prices there must be change

perhaps be as imulating on present

7HE DEH0CRACY And TIE
TARIFF.

New 1otk sun
NIt Is highly interesting to watch
the development Of the tariff con-
troversy in the Democratic party.
At the meeting of the National
Committee in Washington last week
the Hon. ]. Sterling Morton of
Nebraska, a pronounced and un-
compromising advocate of a Tariff
for Revenue Only, endeavered to
get that doctrine embodied in the
call of the National Convention in
the form of declaration against
"any legislation creating any priv
LEGGED class, either under tariff laws
or under patent laws" but the at
tempt proved futile. Mr.. Morton's
proposition was rejected, and the
call of the Convention was address
ed to call Democratic conservative
citizens of the United States, ir-
respective of past political associs-
tons and differences, who can unite
in the effort for pure, economical,
and constitutional government"
Thus the National Committee re-
fused, SO far as their authority and
influence extend, to commit the
party to the doctrine looking to-
ward the early introduction of free
trade with foreign nations. eiG
We now learn through the cor
respondence of the EUening Post,
that the most striking effect of the
meeting of the National Democratic
Committee in Washington is opposi-
ton to anyrd legislation Upon the
tariff question. "The Eastern Dem
ocrats, says the EUeRing Post, ''whe
have had the control of the National
Committee for four years, are, many
of them, very determined in their
opposition to the agitation which
has begun under Messrs. Morrison
and Carlisle; and Chairman Barnum
has spent much time in the Capitol
insisting that the Democratic Nom
bers shall prevent the passage of
the Morrison bill. This is harmony
with the policy of the National
Democratic Committee, which sup
pressed an address to the country
taking radical ground in favor of a
revision of the tariff. =" Hs
We suppose there will be a con-
test over this subject in the Nation
al Democratic Convention when it
meets. During the last twenty
years these Conventions have paid
very little attention to questions re-
specting the tariff, the platform
committees having been selected
without any reference to them; and
when their platform has been pre-
sented it has not been thought nee
essary even to discuss it, but what
ever they have inserted has been
adopted without debate or hesita-
ton. But such will probably not
be the case in the Convention of
July next. The partisans of Tariff
for Revenue Only will. naturally
and properly present their views as
Mr.. Morton has now done in the
National Committee at Washington;
and the partisans of Protection will
likewise be prepared to defend their
opinions and TO vote for til EN-. We
see no reason why there should not
be frank and thorough considera-
ton of both sides Of this subject,
and a fair vote upon it, so that the
decision, whatever it may be, may
be accepted as the voice of the party,
and may be set forth to the country,
as its decisive and authoritative ut
terance. t '- .Ea
