hardship to privatsdcitizens, compelling them
to bring their suits in distant cities, employ
strange lawyers, and incur much heavier ex-
pense than they would in . State court It
is the opinion Of some that jurisdiction in this
class of cases might properly be given to the
State courts. thus curtailing the jurisdiction
of the federal courts, thereby relieving their
dockets, and at the same time insuring
speedier and cheaper justice to the citizen.
This phase of the subject is worthy of careful
and candid consideration. The Journal takes
no stock in the current abuse in some quar-
tiers of the federal courts, nor in the alarmist
suggestions concerning the tendency to ex-
tend their Jurisdiction. The federal courts
are the most conservative feature of the gov
eminent, and one Of its mainstays in all re-
spects; but that il no reason why the question
of curtailing their jurisdiction should not be
candidly considered, especially if it can be
done so as to relieve their dockets, and at the
same time confer benefit on the public.
