Prohibitionists in Politics.

Prohibition hasn't quite so strong a hold
upon the people of Pennsylvania as it had a
few years ago. The prohibitionists of that
state will not poll anywhere near SO large a
vote in the approaching state.election as
they did in the last state election. They
have begun TO realize that the way to make
prohibition successful is not by means of
politics, but by educating the people to
accept it.
The Pennsylvania prohibitionists nomi-
mated candidate for governor several
weeks ago. and they thought he would be a
| very popular candidate. He was an
earnest prohibitionist and promised to con-
tribute $4,000 toward the expenses of the
campaign. For some unaccountable reason.
however, he declined the nomination few
days after it was rendered to him. The
prohibitionists are inclined to think that the
Standard Oil Company told him that if he
knew what was best for his own interests he
would not be candidate for governor. The
impression is, that tho Standard Oil Com
pany wants Quay's man Deiamater elected.
and a prohibition candidate would draw a
good many republican votes away from
him.
But the refusal of their candidate to &C
cept the nomination did not dishearten the
prohibirionists. Their executive committee
met again the other day and nominated
another candidate-one that will stick But
he is not candidate who will draw many
votes, and the prohibitionists will make
such poor showing in the election that the
majority of their folks will become dis
heartened and give up trying to get control
OF the state government. 1t will be a good
thing for prohibition if they do, because if
the prohibitionists will let politics alone and
devote their energies and money to the ad-
vancement of the prohibition cause as a
great moral question, they will accomplish
a great deal more good than they have

Took Him a Long Time to Decide

Just watch this crank" said a man in q res

whole act before he gets up courage enough to
ask for fried onions He always finishes by or
dering them, but he never avows his real pur-
pose until he has beaten around the bush for
ten minutes This walters know him well. and
humor him."
The lover of onions seated himself, and
looked over the dinner-card with a languid,
bored air.
How are the soft-shelled crabs devileds" he
asked.
They are very nice, SIR

Yes, it's little late sir

/ Facilitating Supreme Court Decisions.
Congress has redeemed many of its faults
and deficiencies by the progress it has made
with the bill which creates a court of ap-
| peals to relieve the over crowded United
| States supreme court Business is now 50
many years behind iu that tribunal as to
entail serious loss and injury upon many
Iitigants who can i'll afford TO await the
slow course of routine procedure
Unless the amendments attached by the
Senate judiciary committee fail to receive
concurrence in the House the bill will soon
become a law.
An additional judge to be appointed in
each circuit with the same jurisdiction as
the present judges Is provided for in the
bill. In each circuit a court OF appeals
composed of three judges is to be estab-
lished. Most of the cases appealed from
the district courts are 10 be subject to review
only by the court OF appeals. Appeals
from district courts to existing circuit
courts are to be discontinued. Appellate
jurisdiction is to be exercised by the court
of appeals to review the final decisions Of
district or circuit courts in all cases
except such as may be appealed
directly to the supreme court
Unless the court of appeals shall
ask the supreme court for instruction to aid
it in reaching proper conclusions its decis-
ion shall be final. Should the counsel of the
supreme court be asked, it may simply give
instruction, or have the whole cause, with
all the records. sent up to it for considera-
ton. Any cause pending before the circuit
court of appeals may be certified up to the
supreme court upon an order from that
tribunal
In cases where the jurisdiction of the
court isinvolved appeals may be taken from
the district or existing circuit courts to the
supreme court direct. Such appeals are
permissible, for instance, from penal sem
fences and DEGREES in prize cases or in
criminal cases where the punishment is
death. in cases where the constitutionality
Of the court is involved, where the consti-
nationality of any law is in question, or
where the constitution or law of any state
is claimed to be in contravention of the con-
stitutlon of the United States similar
direct appeal may be taken.
Although simpler plan would doubtless
prove more effective, any practical organi-
cation that serves to relieve the increasing
burdens of the calendar will be most heartily
welcomed by the public. 1t is defect that
has long needed remedy.

This is the epoch of the overseer. Still the
