THE NINE NEW .JITDG E.S

The law creating nine additional circuit
judges passed Congress just before the final
adjournment Il of that body. But for timely
discovery at the last moment the law would
have swept the Supreme Court docket clean
of all the cases left upon il and left the court
without business. That blunder was cor
rected and the Dngress came to an end
with full provision made for the dispatch
of judicial business except the most i'm.
pDrtant part--judges to preside over the
new courts. Before the President had time
10 choose the men the Senate had adjourned
and no combinations could be made. The
President was left in quandary. The
question was whether he could appoint to u
newly created Office and the appointee pro
coed to act In advance of confirmation by
the Senate 1t was new question and
opinions differed as to the legality, although
there was less disagreement on the question
Of propriety. Attorney General Miller has
advised the President that he could legally
appoint, and the judges could act in ad-
vance of confirmation when the appoint
ment was made after the death of one Con
gress and before the convening of its sue.
cessor Ii seems to be uncertain what &C
lion will be taken. The soundest opinions
are against appointing unless the Senate is
called in extra session to confirm. 1t is
pointed out that some of the judges may
have TO act upon cases in which Sena
hprs are more or less directly interested, and
the decisions may be influenced by the
desire for confirmation or the vote ON con
firmation be effected by the decisions.

THE PROVOCATION AT NEW OR.
LEA Ms

We have always held, and do still hold,
that when Courts cannot be entrusted to
administer justice with an impartial hand
in cases of crime or revolving outrage, or
are inadequate to meet such startling emer
gencies as recently arose in New Orleans,
then it becomes the right and privilege OF
the people to become the court, the judges
and executoners. 1t is then and under such
circumstances that they meet their full duty
as citizens. If there has ever been an in.
stance when lynch law could be fully main.
tained and justified it would be in breaking
up such an organization as the Malta. II
the bloody results of Saturday last in New
Orleans have that result the cause of jus
tice will not have suffered.
The Washington Post, of the 18th instant,
speaking of the provocation editorially, re-
marks:
singular enough, in all that has been
written and said Of the finding of the Hen.
messy jury at New Orleans and its terrible
sequel, little or no consideration has been
paid 10 wha: was perhaps the real secret of
the monstrous verdict.
at was not necessarily jury packing; it
is doubtful if it was jury buying. Beyond
question corruption fund was ready;
even the highest pitch of excitement can
but suggest that it was really used
when the final truth shall be told, il
will be found that, more than all else, it

messy jury.
"Over the city of New Orleans hung a
vague pail. In its midst was secret So
ciety. whicn had no visible existence, yet
was Of wide extent, yet which never met
twice in the same place-a society whose
speech was foreign and strange, and to
whom assassination was not unknown;
was, indeed, its weapon of defense, if not
the source Of its power.
"This society had permeated the arteries
of trade; had entered the courts of justice !;
had bought verdicts and bribed juries; had
struck terror in every heart; had slain the
only man who had dared defy it.
"The citizen of New Orleans who spoke
against this terrible thing, the Malta, took
his life in his hands. The juryman who
voted for the conviction OF Joseph Macheca
and his co.conspirators was a mark for
death.
"What wonder that, at this crisis, the
twelve men. haunted by an awful and Ian
cinating dread, quaied and failed What
wonder that when the people Of New Or
leans woke to the terrible reality, they rose
in blind fury as they didY
"The New Orleans tragedy stands dark
on that cily's fame and a cloud on the ma
tional name; but it was not without provo.
C alton most deep, provocatien the like of
which has never before been known to
American shores.
"Beiore the people of New Orleans are
Judged an condemned, it will be well to
attempt realization of the reign of terror
which iettered the city in Its terrible chains,
which it seemed only popular uprising
could break"

1t would hardly be expected that Con.
gresham Jerry Simpson, yclepted sockless,
would hope TO set the fashions for Washing

attempt it is not likely that his model would
be very widely copied, especially If he should
prescribe the use Of socks. Mr.. Simpson is,
in fact, too hard headed and sensible man,

that Mr.. Simpson will carry his plain and

GOING FOR SHERMAN.

Many of the leading Republican papers
throughout the country think the farmers
ungrateful because of their efforts TO retire
Senator Sherman from the U. s. Senate.
This may be true from Republican stand
point, but it will have no effect upon the
purpose of the farmers. Mr.. Sherman has
been in Congress for thirty years and during
that long time he has been the re presenta-
tive of the corporations and mo neyed inter.
ests only
During his long public career he has
never brought forward one measure effect.
ing the farmers interests. The work he
did in refunding the national debt compelled
the farmers and taxpayers to pay millions
in excess of what they should have paid.
His advocacy of an extortionate tariff has
unnecessarily and unjustly taken millions
out of the pockets of the farmers. This
posing as the special friend of the farmers,
when driven to do so in order to save his
seat in Congress, will not do.

Judge ordered the jury to be discharged and
