SUPREME COURT REFORM.

The United States supreme court,
under the working of a new rule
limiting argument, is going at the
heavy docket before it in a. way that
promises to eliminate the ]ong-stand-
ing reproach of the laws delay. The
departure from the old custom OF
practically unlimited time for g
ment is not pleasing to the lawyer
element. Judging from the circum
stance that the legal gentleman who
first, faced the court wanted to know
II he was the first victim of the
short-time regulation.
Though the lawyers may demur.
their clients have cause for rejoicing.
Until now the time between the fling
of a suit and the hearing thereof
was about three years, an uncon-
Ecionable period in the opinion of ev-
erybody except counsel at the bar.
Just how much time will be saved
by the new process cannot he seen
until the docket has been reduced to
normal proportions. There are be-
fore the court a large number Of
eases calling for extended argument
and consideration. and but for the
new rule the great desire of the judy
~ to hasten litigation would hardly
he realized.
Another drag on the court is the
filing of appeals from the lower
courts in cases which are nonappeal-
able. Many of these come from the
several state supreme courts on the
ground hat a constitutional question
is involved. These do not come up
for hearing. it is true. but it takes
much time to ascertain their proper
status. Naturally, 1t would be
thought hat the learned counse In
these cases would have familiarized
themselves with the constitution to
the extent Of being able to Judge
whether the supreme court was likely
to allow an appeal.
That the contrary is true was strik-
ingly illustrated at a recent sitting
of the highest tribunal. when ninety
six out of one hundred appeals were
disalIowcd on the ground that they
had no standing, many of them for
the reason that no constitutional
question was involved. The college
course in constitutional law would
seem to Nc lacking in the essentials.
