PEACE IN COLOMBIA.

News of the ending of a revolt may not be so
sensational as news of the beginning Of one. In
most cases it should be regarded with far more
pleasure. In the case Of one of our own repub-
lcan neghbors it is particularly welcome. We
glad. therefore to publish, do else
where in this mornings paper authentic It'd
ings of the ending Of the attempted revolution
in Colombia. That republic has had number of
outbreaks against the established order in re-
cent years. though not so many nor so serious
as some of its neighbors; and these have sadly
disturbed its industries and checked its prog
ress. The latest one, which might well hope
may be its last, had its origin in serious provo
cation. II has not succeeded In overthrowing
the existing government. There Is reason for
confidence, however, in the practical success of
the cause which it represented, in the speedy
correction of the evils against which it was
militant protest.

discount from par the country is flooded. When

yers who. even with such favoritism as now
exists, from time to time are made referees
The board Of twenty referees for the Supreme
and Surrogates courts is utterly unequal to the
business TO be transacted, and its establish
ment would not facilitate but greatly delay, the
disposition Of cases. The bill is piece of
vicious local legislation a subject which, if
dealt with at all should be dealt with generally
for the whole State. The law would deprive
| Supreme Court justice sitting in Manhattan of
powers which he could continue to exercise if
| he crossed the East River. 1t would establish
| bench of what would practically be assistant
| Judges with large compensation for the long
| term Of ten years. and still allow those judges
to practise law. 1t is one thing for a court to
pick out a lawyer to hear and determine par
| ticular case with the attorneys in which he has
no connection as associate or opponent in other
cases, but quite different thing for a man to
be permanently occupied in the trial of hun
dreds OF cases, before him under compulson
when he is at the same time actively practising
law as a competitor of those who come before
him day after day.
These and other defects of the bill were prob
ably not understood in the legislature on the
last day of the session. 1t is said that the
measure was passed by the Senate in good
nature and without expectation that it would
go through the Assembly, was brought up in
that house ten minutes before adjournment
and rushed through without debate or ex-
planation. Some members who were uncertain
how to vote were advised by their leaders TO let
il go through, as there was no time for examna-
tion, and told that the Governor would pass
upon the merits of the scheme The lawyers
the justices of the Supreme Court, and even
five of the justices of the Appellate Division
which is expected to divide the patronage, pro-
test that 1t has no merits. Certainly if they
place their views before the Governor with
thorough and convincing analysis of the bills
