Of the Board of City Magistrates last Monday

from the early closing of the Night Court may

ing that distrust of its sincerity should have
been manifested. Three suspicious have been
invoked by the boards recent passage of a reso-
luton providing that the Night Court shall be

ton of the presiding magistrate First. il was
COnjectUr2d that the judges We're simply weary

ayerred that the deeper motive was to niure

The magistrates denounced both these the

As Magistrate DrOege said in opposition to
the early closing measure, a magistrate would
either have. to inquire by telephone at every
ponce station whether any prisoners were on

leave the arraignment OF prisoners to the dis
cretion of police lieutenants Needless to say,
these alternatives might only too readily be re-

tunity for fat. quick and sure profits during the
most boistcrous period Of the night the bonds
men and their official consprators might easily
diminish by nearly one-half the efficiency of the
imperilied court. If, therefore the honorable
Judges wish 10 convince the public both OF their

BRIT4IN's DUTCH DOMINION

South African federation is not yet effected
but there can be no doubt that it is impending.
The five colonies Of the British Empire there are
largely diverse in their interests. but they are
also largely homogeneous. Certainly they have
enough in common to warrant their union and
TO give promise Of its proving profitable. More
over, their community of interests is bound TO
increase with their growth in population
and with the more complete development of
their resources. They are as well fitted to form
"A dominion are the British North American
provinces, or TO form a commonwealth as the
Australian states. Now that Sef-gOVernmrnt
has been given to the Transvaal and is about
to be given to the Orange River Colony, we may
expect the movement for union to be expedited
and perhaps TO eliminate soon after the coming
elections in Cape Colony and the Orange River
Colony.
The interesting feature Of the situation is that
the new dominion will be distinctively Dutch
dominion. Three of the five colonies will almost
certainly be under Dutch control leaving only
the smallest two 70 the English speaking ele-
ment The Transvaal was put under Dutch
control by the terms Of its constitution, though
on an impartial basis the British element would
have the majority. The Orange River Colony,
which is about to hold its first election is un-
dOubtedly overwhelmingly Dutch. In Cape Col
ony the parties are pretty closely matched, but

Paul Kruger, to which he was perhaps largely

sued little different policy. Mr.. Steyn has
posed as an irreeoncilable yet even he prob
ably now realizes the futllity of resisting Brit
ish authority. while with all thoughtful men in
all the colonies, he must realize that in self
government under the British flag they have
every advantage they could have had under the
Vierkleur and some very important advantages
which the separatist policy never could have
secured for them.

tate, however, to advocate earnestly the nominal
tions Of such the Bartletts for the
Court of Appeals of Judge Whitman for the Court
OF General Sessions, and of Justices O'Dwyer and
Wadhans for the New York City Court. These
gentlemen have found places the tickets of
party or another. Our friends will therefore have
a chance to vote for all of them. and earnestly
hope for their election. OF the election of the two
Bartletts there is. OF course, doubt; but from
the tickets local to New York City and county the
best men will have TO be selected wholly ire

ference before the Cabinet meeting to-day with
Governor Frantz and a number of other Oklahoma

are approximately twenty candidates for every
position, and the President is anxious TO start the
new commonwealth with the best staff of federal
officials he can find.

day from Judge Grosecup. of Chicago. emphatically

he was quoted saying that the President had In
