Bringing Law Into Contempt.

In speaking in advocacy of a move
ment in It's city to regenerate the man.
ners and purify the morals of the minor
courts of law, the Chicago Times-Her-
aid graphically describes an evil which
Is widely prevalent. '"The justice
court" 1t says, twas intended to be the
poor mans court. and was instituted
solely for the purpose of giving a
speedy remedy for small demands,
which would be eaten up in the ex-
pense of higher courts. The Justice
was supposed to be sort of arbitrator
between neighbors, or between master
and servant, when some dispute had
arisen about small money matters.
This was the sum of all dsputations
likely to occur in rural or primitive
neighborhoods, and for them an in
ferior court of this kind. daily accessi-
BILE, was a boon. But when the same
jurisdiction is applied to a city, with its
thousands Of poor people and its i'm
mensely varied interests, very differ
ent condition arises. Here these in
ferior courts, instead of being the poor
mans resort for justice, are too apt to
be made the means whereby he is op-
pressed"
Complaint to this effect Is of frequent
occurrence. Only a few days ago Judge
White, Of Allegheny, interrupted the
proceedings before him to comment
scathingly upon the mingled lawless-
ness and rapacity Of many of the al
dermen and peace justices whose re-
turns figured on the dockets of the Al
legheny courts. Similar criticisms are
of almost monthly occurrence in this
county. The suspicion that many cases
Of petty litigation are first fomented
and then carried up. for a considera-
ton, by petty magistrates or their re-
tainers, is held by a large majority of
those whose business frequently calls
them into the precincts OF the local
courts and in a few instances 1t has
been confirmed by credible testimony.
Detectives" who prey on protected
vice or levy fblackmail on screened vio-
lators of the law are only a fraction Of
the class Of malefactors who bring the
primary courts into disrespect or open
disrepute.
Public opinion Is by no means unani-
nous as to the best methods Of reme-
dying these conceded abuses; but It
would seem as if6the initiation Of cor
rective measures was duty devolving
upon the judges OF the various county
courts. 1t is into these courts that the

COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
Shorten the Presidential Campaign

Reading Times 1.-THE shortening Of the
presidential campaigns that uiiadren.ally
effect almost a paralysis of the business
of the country will undoubtedly be a bless
ing. 1t was necessary thirty years or
more ago to prolong the contests over a
period of three or four months, and some
times longer, In order to insure u perfect
spread Of intelligence regarding the ma
ture Of the issues and the character OF
the candidates among all the people of the
nation. scattered as they were over an
immense territory. as yet poorly equipped
with means of transportation and COM
muncation. But the great growth of the
railroad and telegraph system. and the
progress of the American press, have
eliminated these conditions, and the
America of today Is no more difficult to
canvass as a whole than any one Of the
states. II is, in the present times, mani
festly useless to spend months in foolish
reiteration OF charges and counter
charges, denials and explanations. when
the minds Of the people are doubtless
made up on the. subject Of preference for
candidates almost Immediately after the
conventions"

Spain and Cuban determination.

An EbulIitjon of Anarchy.

The ten thousand citizens of New
York city who on Wednesday paraded
the streets with banners decrying the
enforcement of the present excise law
in that municipality called theirs a
liberty demonstra tion;" but It was not
that. That thing. in a government Of
by and for the people, which condemns
the enforcement of laws enacted by a
majority of the representatives of the
people Is not liberty; 1t Is anarchy
The essence Of good citizenship in a
republican form Of government Is
obedience to law. Obnoxious law can,
In such a government, be changed by
the people, Ito suit their will; but it
cannot be repudiated with safety out
side Of the regularly constituted enact
ing body. When such irregular and
unofficial reputation takes place, II be-
comes 7awlessness; 1t weakens the foun-
dations of all law; 1T savors Of anarchy.
The complaint of many citizens Of
New York city is against the enforce
ment Of the law which says that alco-
holic liquor as beverage must not be
sold on Sunday, except when sold with
meals, as in hotels. This law was
passed by majority of the representa-
tives and senators elected to make law
for the people of New York state. 1t
can be repealed or amended by the
same kind Of public servants whenever
a majority of the people shall so wish
and declare. Until It is so amended or
repealed II stands on the statute book
as the win Of the majority; and con-
certed resistance to 1T becomes insur-
rection. The one supreme principle in
our form Of government is that the ma
jority shall rule. The citizen who does
not wish to recognize this principle will
escape trouble by choosing a residence
in some other country. :.
In the concrete, the present trouble
in New York city arises from the desire
of many persons to buy beer on Sum
day. The selling. Of beer on Sunday Is
prohibited by law. Therefore these
persons are endeavoring, not to change
the law, which, II they could accom-
plish It, would be q constitutional and
orderly process: they are endeavoring
to nudity the law by abusing and re-

sisting the agents of its enforcement.
Such conduct is wholly apart from the
debatable question whether the sale of
beer on Sunday is desirable or not; it
is lawless. insubordinate and revolu-
tionary. and It lays upon every honest
citizen, whatever his opinion as to the
desirability of Sunday beer selling, the
imperative duty of standing firm for
law and order as thus assailed. Agita-
tion along peaceable lines for the or
derly modification of q given law is one
thing which is entirely within the
bounds of propriety; warlike agitation
against the enforcement of law is an
other thing. which violates every safe
principle of American government.
The ten thousand Gothamites who
advocate resistance to law-enforcement
abuse their civic privileges and ought
to be ashamed of themselves.

Time to Recognize Cuba.

On Sept. 10, according to Trustworthy
reports, the constitutional assembly
representing an overwhelming proper
tion of the native citizenship of Cuba
and nearly two-thirds of the islands
total area. met at Santa Maria del
Puerto Principe formulated articles of
government and elected Bartolomc
Masso che first president of the Cuban
republic. AS soon as the new govern
ment gets accustomed to its duties, the
expectation Is that it will despatch
ambassadors to the various govern
ments of the American mainland. in
cluding the republic of the United
States; and these ambassadors will
plead for the recognition of their gov
ernment as one of the established insti-
tutions of the western hemisphere.
The republic of Venezuela, it is said,
will within a few days grant tine de-
sired recognition. The republic of
Mexico is understood to contemplate
similar action, and awaits only the oc-
currence of a good preteXt. The only
important government in the New
World which has up to this time ex-
hibited official Indifference or open
aversion for the cause of the Cuban
patriots who are now battling, as did
our forefathers. for inalienable rights
Is the Cleveland administration at
Washington, which only little while
ago was endeavoring. with might ana
main, to put back bloodthirsty wan
ton on the demolished Hawaiian
throne. And in this conduct, as in
that. it runs directly counter to the
enlightened sentiment Of the country.
1t is said that the whole question of
our duty toward Cuba will be placed
by the president before congress. If
true. this means more than two months
of unnecessary delay; but delay. fol-
lowed by patriotic action, would be
preferable to misguided precipitancy
which. as in the Hawaiian case, re-
quired the saving intervention of con-
gress. 1t will be of some moment If
Mr.. Cleveland shall, in this affair, ex-
hibit. for the first time in his public
career, a symptom of doubt as to his
own infalibility: but in all other re-
