NEW SUPREME COURT JUDGES
Candidates for thc Three Vacancies to Bo
Filled This Year.

Three Supreme Court Judges will be elected
this wear, more than were ever before chosen at
n city election in New York. No vacancies are
to DO filed; tho number OF Supreme Court
Judges is to be increased by three. exclusive OF
the change made by tho amended Constitution
which turns Superior Court and Common Pleas
Court Judges into Supreme Court Judges after
Jan. 1. Although there is no apprenticeship for
supreme Court Judges In the ordinary line OF
promotion, IT is n fact that they come 10 their
honors by gradual stages. George II. Van
Brunt, the presiding Judge Of the Supreme
Court in this district was originally Judge OF
the Common Pleas Court, elected in 1869. He
served for fourteen years and was then pro-
NOTED TO tho Supreme Court bench. George L.
Barrett was originally Civil Court Judge, and
In November. 1868, he was elected a Judge of
the Court of Common Pleas. Afterward he was
elected Supreme Court Judge. and Is
now in the twonty-thrl year OF his service.
George l.. 1nGraham was elected n Judge of the
Superior Court in November. 1889, and he held
that position until appointed to succeed tho late
Judge Brady. George T. Andrews was original
ly Assistant United States District Attorney,
and was afsrward nppoisntSd ss CorPor;asdion

supreme Court Judge on Jan. l. 1888. Abram
and the year following. 1873, he wns elected Su-
premc Court Judge. Edward Patterson held no
Judicial position before becoming n supreme
Court Judge in 1887. but he had been defeated
candidate for Judge OF tho Court of Common
Pleas in 1884 and 1885.
On the Republican side three candidates are
already named: Ernest Hall, former Judge OF
tho City Court; William y. Cohen, who has
the backing OF Edward Lautcrhach, Platt
Republican and Chairman OF tho Republican
ooTnty S1mmsteS and James
Recorders: Rastus S. Ransom, former Sur
roRa:e: Charles II. Truax. former Judge of
the Superior Court. and David Mcclure are
named as prospective candidates, and tho state
Democracy has n possible outside candidate in
Francis NJ. Scott. The German Reform Union
has n favorite in Charles F. MacLean, former
Police Commissioner and now counsel for the
Sheriff. Supreme Court Judges receive S17,500
a year for the term Of fourteen years.

fnnncier. The ways and means once ar
ranged, however, the Liberals will be un-
able long to defer dissolution, and they
will go to the country. nominally perhaps
still under Lord RosEBERY, but really un-
der the guidance Of Sir WILLIAM HARcoURT,
who alone of Mr.. GLApsToNE's former lieu
tenants has gained any distinction since the
retirement of their chief.
What chance have the Liberals OF retain
ing at the next general election even the
narrow majority Of about dozen which
they now possessf They have kept faith
with the welehmen by introducing and
pushing bill for the disestablishment and
discndowment of the Anglican Church in
Wales. We may probably assume, there
fore, that they will lose no seats in the
principality. Nor have they any reason to
dread any serious losses in Scotland: il is in
England that the numbers of the Gladston-
ians are almost certain to be signally cut
down. II the nearly uniform trend of recent
by-elections affords Trustworthy basis for
forecast, they may expect to be ousted from
scores of the seats which in 1892 they car
ried by very small majorities. In that event
the Unionists will return to power with the
same great preponderance which they ac-
quired in the general election held in the
midsummer Of 1885.
There is not, ofcourse, the slightest chance
that the threatened shrinkage Of Gladston-
ian strength can be in any degree made good
by gains on the part of their Irish allies.
Not again in our time are we likely to see
the Nationalists win S5 of the 1O3 seats
allotted to Ireland. as they did under Mr..
PARNELL in 1885 and 1885. The constitu-
encies wrenched from them by the Union
lists in 1892 can scarcely be recov-
cred; it is more probable that a
few others will be captured by the land
lord party. More dangerous, however,
than the common enemy is the apparently
irreparable schism in the Nationalist ranks.
Mr.. JOHN E. REDMOND and his eight Par
nellite colleagues are confident of obtaining
some accessions to their faction, and nobody
believes that any of their present seats can
be taken from them by the McCarthyites,
even should the latter be undivided by the
quarrel between Mr.. DILLON and Mr..
HEALY. Altogether the prospect Of the
Gladstonian-McCa Carthyite coalition seems
dark one, and the attempt to brighten it by
organizing campaign against the House
Of Lords has apparently miscarried.

The Political Situation in Great
Britain.

The successive victories gained by the
Unionists in recent by-elections in England
seem to justify the confidence with which
they look forward to the next general con-
test ut the polls. They also explain why the
Liberals cling to office with desperation, al
though they have no hope of carrying
through the upper House any of the measures
that figured in the Newcastle programme.
That the Ministers nre skirmishng for
delay in the hope that something auspicious
may turn up, is manifest from their post
ponement of decisive vote on the Local
Veto bill, which must have brought them
within a hairs breadth Of defeat, and from
the introduction of the one man, one
vote bill, which they do not expect to pass
"Since the Government have no mind for
work" was Mr.. BALFoUR's comment on the
move just mentioned, "let us play! Both
parties are willing enough to while away

A Sanctuary OF Commerce.

Mr.. EDWARD ATKINSON, in an interesting
address delivered before the American Peace
Society at Boston on Thursday evening,
dwelt upon 1.-THE possibility of making the
Hawaiian or Sandwich Islands the sanctu-
ary of the great commerce Of the Pacific
Ocean" He said that he had recommended
this idea to the authorities at Washington.
We should think that the project of an
ocean sanctuary might perhaps appeal to
the present Administration, and that it
might be willing to have Hawaii consecrated
to this purpose, especially If she would take
LILIUoKALANI as high priestess, set up the
throne again, and. above all, renounce all
ambitions and desires to cast in her lot with
the American Union.
Mr.. ATKINSON thinks that the RUSH
BAGoT treaty Of 1918, by which a very lin
tied force of war vessels was allowed on the
Great Lakes, is precedent for the policy he
now proposes for the Sandwich Islands, and
that Japan could help us in bringing the
plan to pass
What greater triumph could now be attained by
the new power which has suddenly come to the front
in the far East than for Japan unite with the
States in Justifyng the name OF the Pacific Ocean
What stands in the way or compact among the great
commercial nationsf The United States and japan,
Joined with the British empire. the German empire,
France Russia. and Italy, may establish the condi.
tions which have presented to you. Argument is not
needed in such cause. The very suggestion carries
its full force; It would only be weakened by further
discussion"
We are not wholly disposed to dispute
this last assertion. We have no doubt, also
that a proposal to make commercial sane
tuary Of Hawaii, instead of joining her to
the United States, would be welcomed with
boisterous enthusiasm By England and
Germany, whose antipathy to the law of
the stronger and devotion TO peace princi-
pies are 80 we'll known. They might justly
protest against extending sanctuary privi-
leges toSamoa and Tonga, but with these ex-
ceptions, having already grabbed about every
thing else there is available in the Pacific,
they would consent to the autonomy of
Hawaii in place Of it's voluntary adhesion
to the North American Union.
We think, however, that Hawaii herself
will be quite Ms safe within the shelter of
that Union rs in the isolated sanctuary
which Mr. ATKINSON proposes. All the pro-
lection she needs she has already craved at
our hands and when she receives it, she will
have an ample guarantee Of peace.

HoEBER has generally conformed to the law
as he understands It. and though the law as
he understands it is not the law as it exists,
HoEBER has done his best. He is entitled
Mt least to that acknowledgement II is true
that those with whom, officially, Coroner
has most to do, are those from whose cor
poreal frames the breath of life has
gone. They cannot escape his Wig
ilance. With DAMsEN the case is
different. He deals with the living and his
deputies deal with the living; and from
these deputies the living, from time to
time, escape, or evade the orders of the
Court, or go to Turkish baths, in de-
fiance of such orders, when they should ne
taken to the City Prison, or leave the juris-
dicton Of the city, or give worthless bonds
for their appearance when required, or de
part without even that formality of courtesy
to the first German-American Reform
Sheriff New York has ever had.
DAMsEN, conscious of all these facts and
conscious, too, of the plight into which the
German Reform Union has fallen through
his blunders and errors, may have been re-
luctant to look his associate German-Amer-
lean Reformer, HoEBER, in tho face. He
may have shrunk from an interview humil-
iating to the fine sensibilities of q notary
public He may have imagined that HOE
BER, who speaks German fiuently, and often
volubly, would upbraid him in the Ian
guage he understands. The clear-cut and
concise English of GEORGE G. BARRETT,
DAMsEN might not have comprehended, but
from HoEBER's Plattdeutsch there would
have been no escape. And DAMsEN knew
that HoEBER was waiting for him at the
Court Of Oyer and Terminer ut IL o'clock
on Wednesday morning.
We observe that the lawyer of ILL1NG
WORTH secured on Thursday from Judge
1NGIAHAM an order for the review of his
clients commitment. This order is not
based on DAMsEN's absence, but on the
claim that an error in law was committed
in holding ILLINGwoRTH, while DAMsEN,
who was party to the proceedings for con-
tempt, was discharged. The hearing comes
up in June, and If DAMsEN is in town and
in office at that time he may find it con-
venient to attend.

The Session and the Record.

The last Legislature to be elected under
the former apportionment, now superseded
by the new Constitution, and the first in
twelve years to be in accord politically with
q Republican Governor of New York, ad-
journed OIL Thursday. On Dec 81, 1889. the
term Of ALoNzo B. CORNELL, Republican,
came to an end; on Jan. 1, 1895, the term Of
LEVI p. MORTON, Republican, began. Dur
ing the dozen years intervening, the Repub-
licans at times held the Legislature, and at
other times the Democrats enjoyed that ad-
vantage; but against the former there was
always the barrier Of Democratic Gov
ernor. Not since 1882 until the present year
have the Republicans had actual control Of
the legislation in Albany.
The record they have made speaks rather
for itself than for them. 1t is poor. The
tax rate, which was 2.1s last year un-
der Democratic Governor and with a
Democratic State Senate, is 8.24 this year,
with Republicans in full control. These
are the inevitable earmarks of Republican
supremacy at Albany:
The Greater New York project hns been
defeated.
The promise Of new Excise law has been
broken.
The radical improvement demanded in
the former election law has not been made.
New burdens in the forms Of increased
expenditure for public servants, and for use
less and dangerous commissions, have been
imposed upon the people of this city.
There have been scandalous recrimina-
tions between Republicans, mutual charges
of corruption and wrongdoing. resulting in
profitless Investigations. Democratic off,
cials heretofore elected by the people or ap-
pointed by their representatives have been
turned out wantonly, and in some cases
without even the warrant Of law. In five
of the big cities of the State, New York,
Brooklyn, Buffalo, Syracuse, and Albany,
serious factional differences have been
aroused and aggravated by the course of
Republicans in the Legislature. There are
now two discordant groups Of Republicans
in every one Of these five cities, menace to
Republican success in November.
Such, in substance. is the record Of one
hundred and thirty-six days Of legislative
session in Albany with the Republicans in
full control.
Fifty Senators and one hundred and fifty
Assemblymen, under the district divisions
established by the amended Constitution,
will be chosen this year.

Question: PRAY tell me which of the
faculties Of the mind the editor of THE Sun
regards as the most valuable in practical life 2"
Answer: We do not know anything about
" faculties" in the mind. The word is apt to be
misleading. The mind of man is not divided
into partitions, with a separate faculty In each
partition. II possesses varied and complex
powers, to which distinctive names have been
given, for tho sake of convenience but they are
all comminGled ard inseparable. and two or
q half dozen or more of them may act together
at one and the same time. The lobes Of tho
brain are as one lobe in their association and
the processes Of tho mind are analogous thereto.
The whole Of the mental powers may be brought
to bear upon given point.
For convenience, we speak of the faculties
and give them Names and some people divide
them into determinate groups. 1t would be i'm
possible to tell which one OF these named facul-
ties Ia the most valuable In practical life. That
one OF them known as the will. which, however,
1t must be remem bered is not pnrtitioned off
from the others, may be of great practical value,
when under the guidance of n sound Judgment.
The memory also is u good one. The reason,
using that word in its higher significance, is a
first-rate one. Tho imagination, while under
the direction OF reason, is one of vast utility,
The late JAY GOULD. for example. had keen
perception, strong WILL very sure memory,
an unusual measure of reason. and large i'm
agination, this last word being here used to in
dicate the capacity Of projecting the coyitatiye
powers.
We are disposed to suggest that man in
whom these faculties" are properly shaped
and lively. is well endowed for practical life IL
the rest Of his mind is all right.
