judicial Procedure.

One great crying need in the
United States Is cheapening the cost
of litigation by simplifying judicial
procedure and expediting final judg-
ment. Under present conditions the
poor man is at a woefu1 disadvantage
in legal contest with a corporation
or rich opponent. The necessity
for the reform exists both in United
States courts and in all State courts.
In order to bring it about, however,
it naturally falls to the general gov
eminent by its example to furnish a
model to all states. A legislative
commission appointed by joint reso-
luton of Congress to revise the pro-
cedure in the United States courts
has as yet made no report.
I am strongly convinced that the
best method of improving judicial
procedure at law is to empower the
supreme court to do 1t through the
medium Of the rules of the court, as
in equity. This is the way in which
it has been done in England.
Relief of Supreme Court From I'm
necessary Appeals.
No man ought to have as a matter
of right a review of his case by the
Supreme Court. He should be salts
fed by one hearing before a court
Of first instance and one review by a
court of appeals. The proper and
chief usefulness of the Supreme
Court, and especially the Supreme
Court of the United States, is in the
cases which come before it so to ex-
pound the law and especially the
fundamental law-the Constitution
as to furnish presidents for the
inferior courts in future litigation
and for the executive officers In the
construction of statutes and the per-
Torrance Of their legal duties.
Therefore any provision for review
of cases by the Supreme Court that
cast upon that court the duty of
passing on questions Of evidence and
the construction Of particular forms
of instruments, like indictments or
wills or contracts, decisions not of
general application or importance.
merely clog and burden the court
and render more difficult its higher
function, which makes it so impor-
tant part of the framework of our
Government. The Supreme Court is
now carrying an unnecessary burden
of appeals Of this kind, and I earn
estly urge that it be removed.
Judicial Salaries.
l further recommend to Congress-
the passage OF the bill now pending
for the increase in the salaries of the
Federal judges.
Wiping Out a Postal Deficit.
For many years there has been a
deficit in the operations of the post
Office department which has been met
Dy appropriation from the treasury.
The appropriation estimated for last
year from the treasury over and
above the receipts of the department
was S17.500,000. am glad to record
the fact that of that $17,500,0o0 es-
t1mated for Sill, 100000 were saved
and returned to the treasury. Tt is
gratifying oreport that the reduc-
ton in the deficit has been accom-
pilshed without any curtailment of
postal facilities.

No POLITICS n RECEPTION.

All connection between Roosevelt's
Homecoming and the possibility Of bis
again becoming candidate for president
Of the United States seem to have been
studiously avoided in New York satur-
day, and Roosevelt himself did more
than anybody else to make the welcome
simply recognition Of past action and
without reference to the future. It was
nevertheless inevitable that someone
should break loose from the restraint
and declare him the next president Of
The United States However, those cases
were few and far between. The formal
and preaTanged part Of the program
was not violated IN that respect At all,
although, Ct course. there was in the
mind Of everyone the thought that some
day this same man might be again called
to ait ii the executives chair But
politics was taboosd fof the most part,
