cested FIVE years before. Professor Arthurs re-
searches were carried on from March to August

regarded as satisfactory and conclusive The

This fine volume, for it is one of excellence, is
greatly marred by the author adopting the
English mode of spelling, for which breach of
good taste it is hard to conceive of adequate
apology. 1t is all the more offensive when he
changes the spelling of the excerpts he makes
from the writings of the men who are honored with
a place in his book Even though it were
intended to be reproduced in England it would
be in much better taste to let it appear there
in the American form, dealing as it does with
men peculiarly American. Aside from this,
however, the book is welcome addition to the
literature of the country. The life of William
Cullen Bryant, which is used as the central
stone in the rich cluster which the author has
gathered, embraced very much o the best
productions of the writer's OF New York and the
East. Fine steel portraits of Bryant, James K.
Paulding and Fitz Greene Haeck are given.

The Railroad at Einety-SiX.

Plucky little Nincty-SiX is bound to come tC
the front. The friends of the narrow gauge
road from Grccnvillc to Nincty-SiX seem in
earnest all along the line, and the prospect is
that work will begin before Christmas. This
looks like business and they intend to have it.
They arc not waiting for Charleston, or Eng,
fish capitalists, but they are putting their OWL
shoulder to the wheel, and giving material
aid to the work. We are pleased to see this
spirit manifested, and W. hope the most san,
guinc expectations of its most earnest advo
Gates may be more than realized. This vii.

and will add greatly to the prosperity of Il,
that section through which il rams.

TE,c .E11f!mas and the New Deal.

We are in favor of the Judges being retained dur
ing good behavior. or until supcrannnatcd. The ne"
deal, as we understand it, and have nd vocated it, refers
only to important elective positions. where the can.
didatrs are elected by the votes of The people. For
instance. Intcndants and Wardcns, Mayors and Alder.
men. Governors and State officers. etc. Period cal
charges in these Offices prevent the danger of rings
and machine politics. With The Office Of the Judges
it is dj Observation-Disclosures Record.
Why should Judges, any more than Gov
crnor:, congressman or Legislators, be contin,
urd in Office fnrcvcr? We don't recognize the
differences. As there is no rule about making
a man Governor for life or during good bcha'
vior, we see no good reason for making n man
Judge for the came length of time. Leta man
continue in Office at the will Of the people, nc
matter whether he is Judge, Governor, Lcsis.
lator or Congressman. The rule should APP
ply to all alike. We would he glad if some
body could assign a reason for making an eX.
ccption in the case Of a Judge. Judges, like
other officers, are the creatures Of the people,
and whenever the people want a new Judge
it is worse than nonsense to talk about keep
ing him in office. a little stirring of tho
kitchen furniture does good, sometimes.

TE,c County Court Question.

Several of our esteemed contemporaries arc
urging the establishment, by enactment OF the
Legislature, of Il system of County Courts. VIC
arc sorry to soc this, us We arc now almost
overwhelmed with Court costs. Suppose oun-
ty Courts arc established. 1t will only create
q full corps of officers to he paid out OF the
treasury, without saving u dollar anywhere.
We would have the same humber of Circuit
Judges and Solicitors. We would still be
Obliged to have trial justices and constables.
For our own part, we think we have more
Courts and more law than We can well afford
and we are quite certain the pay roll0 of officers
is long enough. We need to reconstruct some
of the laws which magnify petty offences, and
VIC need trial Justices to be paid a salary. No
judicial system can he above rcproach, which
makes the judges fees contingent upon his
decisions.
If we had only half tho lumber of trial JUS
ticcs We would be greatly relieved. We pre-
sumo thai it will not be denied that some OF
them arc little better than public nuiSanccs,
whereby the citizen is harrass"d and annoyed
at the sweet will of a spitcful ncishbor.
