FRIDAY EVENING. AUG. 7. 1908.

Mr.. TAFTs speech at Hot Springs on
thu laws delay was full of practical sug-
gestioDs for making the processes of
Justice quicker and less costly. Simplify
the codes of procedure, recommends Mr..
TAFT, as England has done. Much OF
the time of courts is wasted in deciding
whether the procedure in a case is techni-
cslly in accord with the States code and
many cases are delayed by the failure OF
attorneys to master it. Appeals, too,
says Mr.. Taft, should be restricted. The
great body of litigation, he thinks,
should be confined to courts of the first
instance and to intermediate appellate
courts. One appeal should be enough,
except In certain typical csses which in
yolye constitutional questions or the con-
struction of a statute; upon these he
would have the court of last resort pass.
Court fees should be reduced so as to
make litigation as cheap IS possible, and
the Judges should be induced to render
their opinions promptly on the conclusion
ola trial, as the English judges do, instead
of incubating the matter for protracted
periods, as is the American custom. Ar
bitration wherever feasible should be en-
ploy9d on account of its greater cheap
ness. Mr.. Taft rsises moral issue,
when he points out that the present de-
LAYS and cost of court procedure operate
to produce virtual inequality before the
law. The poor litigsDt cannot afford
the expense and he cannot endure the
delay attendant on getting justice. If
one of the parties to contest is poor
aud the other rich, the rich litigsnt can
wear out the others patience and ex-
hsust his resources. 1t becomes between
them not so much a question of justice
as of endurance, and this relative ad-
vantage that the rich litigant enjoys over
the poor causes dissatisfaction just as
surely as if the judges openly discrimi-
mated in favor of wealth and power.

EAST TlNTIC DEV. CO..
Is MAKING A MINE

One or the most promising properties

development company of which RalpI,
Kellogg is manager, says the Eureka
reporter The property is not pros

10 take Its place among the big mines
OF the camp OF course, it will REQUIRE
some little work to whip the mine into
shape for the proper production of ore
out this work is being carried on as
rapidly as possible
The ground produced some high
grade lead years ago, a small smelter
having been erected near Goshen for
the purpose of reducing some of this
ore to bullion. The ore which was
taken from the property a number of
years ago was found above the IOO-
foot level. and it has only been during
the past year that the company has
made an effort to prospect the ground
below the point where the first big
stope of ore was found.
Considerable work has been done to
the east of the shaft upon the 125-foot
level, and at the present time Mr..
kellogg is following a nice streak of
ore toward the south at this depth.
This ore has widened out until there
IS every reason to believe that it will
lead into something big.
In running the drift the company is
removing some ore which is being
stored in the ore house. and at the
present time there is nearly a carload
of high-grade lead are awaiting ship
ment. The ore is of a very desirable
grade for smelling, and the premium
upon it will about cover the cost OF
traEspOrta ton to the smelter.
The shaft was recently sunk to the
230-foot level, from which point the
company will drift toward the east.
About $50 feet of work at the point

the big cross break in which the ore
occurs. The ground is by no means
hard and but little time VIII be re-
quired TO run the drift the required
distance. The company cannot go
deeper with the present equipment,
but the management expects to in
stall new machinery at an early date.
