Reorganization of the Judiciary.

There is II very important bill pending
hcfUrc the House on report from the judi
rary committee, and now laid over to await
HE conclusion of the debate on the tariff
bill This bill is one relative to the juris-
licton of the United States courty and
is intended TO relieve the pressure ~
i,ri.,1;a,;o, Gov oi,.. pom the
aI1,,ionoI lint q, an appellate
n, .auit courts, and making
.ltations upon the right of ap-
"a, 10 the Supreme Court.
There have always been grave doubts in
the minds of the best lawyers of the country
as TO the constitutional power of Con-
prcss TO limit the right of appeal TO the Su-
Ineme Court IN dBy case. Absolute neccs-
siiy rendered such action imperative in the
past, and the vastly increasing business of
ihe country makes further limitations desir-
able, when they can be accomplished with
out the impairment of the rights of the peo-
pie,
The hill under consideration seems TO have
been carefully drawn and has the unanimous
sanction Of the judiciary committee of the
House, which fairly represents the legal
ability OF that body, If this measure could
become law as II comes from the commit
The room, it would doubtless subserve the
purpose for which II is intended.
Unfortunately there are some members Of
Congress who are always watching the OPP
portunity to pander to the spirit of dem
Hgogy, and there are not many who have
the courage to resist these appeals when re-
Gurcd to vote for what is right as against
what is or may hepopular, The introduction
81 this bill gives one of these opportunities
which has been seized upon, and the follow
ing amendment has been offered to the irtl
section Of the bill:
Provided, That no corporation shall in am
suit or action TO which il may be a party b,
held TO be a citizen of any state other thai
that in which such suit or action Is brough
because II was created by or organized unde
Tie laws of such other state; nor shall an!
corporation be authorized 10 bring a suit o
action in any court of the United States, or q
remove any suit or action from any stat
court into any court of the United States, be
cause II was created by or organized mde
fhe laws Of any state other than that In whic
such suit Or action Is brought And In suc
eases tnc circuit anu ulslTlCt COUTts OI ln

The chairman of the judiciary committee
Mr.. CulbersOn, of Texas, admittedly on

committee for six terms, in opposing thi

sand miles sailed or steamed for period
OF twenty years, one.third reduction Of
this rate TO be made at the end Of the first
ten years from the date on which the act
went into effect. In France the effect Of
similar legialalion hiss been startling. The
French are not essentially maratime Ms
ton, but their foreign carrying trade has
increased enormhusly.
"ItGly within the last two years has
adopted similar policy, and It's beneficial
results are already visible. England sub
sidiz4s only mail carrying lines, but she
pays heavily for this service, and at the
same time holds these lines ready for
naval reserve. We are liable Of any time,
in case Of foreign war In which England
Is involved, to see the Ounnards and other
swift transatlantic steamships Withdrawn
with scarcely q word Of warning from our
ports and our foreign commerce sehously
crippled at q blow. Ths Eegley bill
would probably be pushed by the League
Convention, but the Whitthorne bill will
be stronger before Congress, and In some
form will undoubtedly pass the House.
"The bill introduced by Representative
Whitthorne, OF Tennessee, proposes to
create q naval reserve corps, recruited
from the Heamen on American ship5,
steamers and yachts, inland and sea6oard,
wherever the proper material Ia available;
second, to pay annually q bounty to all
steamships built on lines approved by the
Secretary of the Navy, Of 30 much per
thousand miles sailed. By this plan a
feet OF vssssls will be in q few years avail
ablein an emergency for cruisers or troop
ships and will supplement the navy which
we arc now engaged in rebuilding. The
WhitthoEne bill will be discussed by the
Convention, but 1t is not as broad In its
scope as the Negley BILL"
