The Supreme Court Reporter.

There are three officers authorized by
law to report the decisions of the courts
of the State of New York; the State Re-
porter, who reports the decisions of the
Court of Appeals, the Supreme Court
Reporter, who formerly reported the
decisions of the General Terms and now
reports those of the Appellate Division
of the Supreme Court, and the Miscel-
lansous Reporter, who reports the cases
decided in courts of record other than
the Court Of Appeals and the Appellate
Division. -'
BY an act of the legislature which be-
came.a law on April S last the justices of
the Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court are required to meet in convention
at the Capitol in the city of Albany on
the third Monday Of the present month of
June for the purpose &C. appointing a
Supreme Court Reporter. The same act
provides that, when so convened, said
justices, by ma jOrity of those present
shall appoint n Supreme Court Reporter
to hold Office for term of five years and
until his successor is appointed and quail
fies said term 10 commence at The expira-
ton Of the term Of Office Of the present
supreme Court Reporter" The act also
contains various provisions in regard to
the publication Of the reports, prohibiting
the Supreme Court Reporter from having
any pecuniary interest therein, and also
fixes his salary at $1,000 year, granting
him in addition thereto such allowances
for clerk hire and office expenses as the
Legislature shall from time to time
direct"
From 1874 until the end of 1895 MARCUS
r. Hun of Albany was the reporter of
the decisions of the General Terms of the
Supreme Court and he published ninety
two volumes of reports during that Pc
Rod. When the Appellate Division sue
ceeded the General Terms in 1896, Mr..
Hun became the reporter of it's decisions,
and has so continued up to the present
time, having just published the one
hundredth volume of Appellate Division
reports. BY an express provision Of
law he has been prohibited from receiv-
ing salary, and his compensation has
consisted of such profit as he could derive
from the sale of his reports at price not
exceeding 81 for volume Of not less than
700 pages.
We believe that Mr., Huns work as
Supreme Court Reporter has been gen.
orally satisfactory to the bench and bar.
Some criticism has been made upon it to
the effect that the predatory note or syl-
labus prefixed to each case, which should
be brief epitome of the decision, was
. too long and dealt too largely with mere
matters of fact The bar has also COM
planned that the reports were too ex-

pensive. This latter objection. IL deemed
we'll founded by the Legislature Justi-
fed that body in changing the method OF
compensation by making the office
salared one instead of paying the Su-
preme Court Reporter out OF the prohts
to be derived by sale Of the reports at
81 a volume. The former objection as
to the character of the reporting, would
justify the members of the Appellate
Division ia removing the Supreme Court
Reporter If they deemed his fault in that
respect sufficiently serious. Back OF
both objections, however, lies the lar
more serious question whether the Legs-
lature possesses any constitutional power
to remove or provide for the removal
of the Supreme Court Reporter or to fix
the length of his term OF office at five
years or any other period or to direct the
Justices of the Appellate Division at any
time to remove him and appoint his
SUCCESSOR
This question is suggested by the Ian
guage of the Constitution Of 1894, now
in force, by which the Appellate Division
was established and which provides
among other things as follows: 1T 1.-THE
Appellate Division] shall have power to
appoint and remove reporter.
Can there be any doubt that this power,
conferred upon the Appellate Division
by the fundamental law itself, commits
to that branch of the judiciary. free
from legislative control, exclusive au-
thority to determine how long its repor-
ter, once chosen, shall remain in office?
Is not the duration of his term solely
dependent upon the exercise of the
power of removal vested in the Appellate
Division by the Constitution? And, Mr..
MARCUS r. Hun now being in Office
as the Supreme Court Reporter, APP
pointed by the Appellate Division in
the exercise of its constitutional power,
can the Judges of that court be con-
strained by legislative enactment to
turn him out and appoint some one else
in his place?
In asking these questions, we express
no doubt as to the authority Of the Legis-
lature to restrict or regulate the COM
DtllSdtlol vi W tAiO op'NS'
We desire only to call attention to the
point that under the language Of the
Constitution it lis extremely doubtful,
to say the least, whether the justices
Of the Appellate Division are bound
at this time to select a successor to Mr.
Hun. If the public interest demands
change, it is clearly their duty to do SO;
but if they think otherwise. may they
not find plain warrant for refusing
to act in the matter in the express pro-
vision of the Constitution on the sub
ject?
Legislation of the sort which is en-
bodied in the act of 1905 in respect to
the Office of Supreme Court Reporter
is usually inspired by some individual
or political organization which desires
the place. The candidates already in
the field for the post now occupied by
Mr.. Hun are numerous and aggressive.
All but one are certain to be disap-
pointed. We trust that the scramble
for the place will not bring discredit
upon the Judiciary by showing that
the members of the Appellate Division
are controlled in a purely professional
matter by the dictates of the particular
political organization to which they
happen to be affiliated.
