CROPS FROM UPPER COLUM-

The Troy correspondent of the
Kettle Falls Tribune gives the fol-

crops made by Indians of the Col

reservation are supplying hay and
oats to the military and Agency post
at Fort Spokane. Monday the steam
er Enterprise, under command of
Captain McDermott, loaded out full
cargo of hay furnished by the Indi-
ans, under the supervision of w. H.
AS the water is steadily falling in
the river, there has been some anx-
iety as to being able to get all the
shipments that are expected to go
down to the Spokane landing. Three
places in the river are particularly
bad, while as the water falls, a num-
Der of other places become very shall

on the river below Hunters, is one
of the most dangerous spots on the

any attempt is made to operate boats
regularly during low water. The
current is strong and swift over an
area of a mile, flowing furiously
among huge boulders, which re-
! quires the boat sometimes to be
whirled quickly around two or three
times and shoot forward and back
at the full speed of her engines,
while the extreme shallowness of the
swift water as it tumbles over a
rocky bed among these lodges necas-
Sarily limits the cargo Of any

greatly increased crops next year.

than that involving a large sum.
Cost TO the Poor Greater.
Hence It results that the cost Of justice
TO the poor is always greater than It is to
the rich. assuming that the poor are more
often interested In small cases than the
rich IN large ones. fairly reasonable
assumption. One reason for delay in the
lower courts is the disposition Of judges
to wait an undue length Of time in the
writing OF their opinions or judgments.
Il speak with confidence on this point,
for / have been one Of the sinners my
self II may be asserted as a general prop
ositlon, to which many legislatures seem
20 be oblivious that everything which
tends TO prolong or delay litigation be-
tween individuals or between individuals
and corporations, Is a great advantage
for that litigant who has the longer purse.
Every change Of procedure that limits the
right Of appeal works for the benefit in
the end OF the poor iltigant and puts him
more on an equality with a wealthy op-
ponent. It is probably true that the dispo-
sition Of tho litigation in the end is more
likely to be just when the tribunals have
passed upon it than when only one OF
two have settled; but the injustice which
had in the meantime been a delay 10
the party originally entitled to the judg-
ment generally exceeds the advantage
that he has in ultimately winning the
case. The shortening OF the time Will
reduce the expense because. FIRST. the
fees Of the lawyers must be less II the
time taken Is not 50 great Second, the
incidental court fees and costs would bo
less
Again I believe that a great reform
may be effected, certainly in the federal
courts and I think, too. IN the state
courts by n mandatory reduction OF the
court costs and fees. / think another
step in the direction Of the despatch OF
litigation would be the requirement OF
higher qualifications for those judges who
sit TO hear the cases involving n small
pecuniary amount Another method by
which tho irritation at the Inequalities IN
our administration Of Justice may be &C.
duced by the Introduction OF a system
OF the settling Of damage suits brought by
the employees against public service cor.
poratlons. through official arbitration aud
without resort to jury trials
"such a system is working In England
as I am informed, and has been success
fully inauguratod In Massachusetts. No
one can have sat upon the federal bench
as did for eight or nine years and not
realize how defective the abandonment Of
Justice IN these cases has seemed TO do
