DILIGENCE WITHOUT HASTE.

We observe with pleasure that an

pointed out by the Deseret News, has
been decapitated It IL that requiring

vented from drawing their salaries. It

It Is no more.
At the same time we respectfully sug-
gest that lltigants are often put to
great inconvenience and expense, by de-
lays In the settlement OF cases IN which
they are INTERCEPTED And II this little
ripple on the judicial waters shall have
the effect OF expediting judicial work,

Too great haste In reaching a decision
is not to be desired. But procrasuna-
