JUDICIAL POLITICS.

Charges have been frequently made
that the decisions of Western courts on
points of law are sometimes more the
reflection of political than judicial opin-
ions. Apparently there is an opportunity
Just now to apply the same criticism to
the Empire State. = few weeks ago
county court decided the legislative re-
apportionment, upon which the Demo-
Gratis are largely depending for control of
that State, to be unconstitutional. This
ruling was recently affirmed by the
Western term of the Supreme Court at
Buffalo. The Republicans manifested
great glee over these decisions, but the
Democrats did not seem at all worried,
and made no effort to replace the pre-
sumably unconstitutional statute.
This Democratic serenity is largely justi-
fed by events. The General Term of the
Supreme Court at Saratoga yesterday de-
cided that the reapportionment was all
right The question has yet to be passed
upon by the Court of Appeals, which is
the highest judicial authority in New
York. As this is the tribunal which Is
accused of straining the law and setting
aside the expressed will of voters to give
the Democrats control of the State Senate
last winter, it is not difficult, in the light
of the precedents, to judge what the
Forthcoming decision will probably be.

GEN. sICKLEs PRAISES HARRISON,
As a Brave Soldier Who Didn't Send q
Substitute to the Front.

. WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-[SpectaLl-1t is evil
dent that General slocum and General Dan
Sickles, of New York, are not following SEN
ator Hill into camp. General Slocum, 1t Will
be remembered, declared at the Chicago
convention that Mr.. Clevelend could not
carry the soldier vote Of New York. Gem
eral sicl1les was equally bitter in his de-
nunciation of Mr.. Cleveland. Last night. at
a regimental reunion, the two New York
Veterans took occasion to air their hostility
to Mr.. Cleveland. General Sickles was par
ticularly vindictive. While he did not men,
tion Mi, Cleveland's name, the inference
was plain. Il know President Harrison,
said General sickles "He was .s,.s;.ota brave te
the front. He went himself and did some
effective fighting. Ihave personal knowf
edge of his bravery on several occasions"
These remarks, coming from the lips OF q
Democrat, caused a sensation. 1t is freely
predicted here that General sickles, WIN whom n;
Governor Hill appointed Sheriff in place OF
the deposed Flack, will be found opposing
Cleveland in November.
