lay between Panama and Nicaragua in

THE BRANDT CASE.

The Brandt case in New York,
which is occupying so large space in
the dispatches, is worthy Of attention
from the courts of all Of the States.
Ii it is true that Brandt was sent to
Jail for thirty years by New York
Judge, not because of the Nervousness
of his olreuse, but because the accused
was Objectionable TO rich man whose
influence WAS eXcrted against Brandt
because he wanted TO get him ont Of
the way, and the Judge yielded to the

scandal that the New York judiciary
must wipe out.
But II was not for the purpose of
reviewing the case that we refer to
II now, but TO direct attention TO the
fact that in this ease the courts arc
taking hold OF the matter as judicial
proposition. Brandt was convicted and

NOMINATION QUICKLY MADE,

The President did we'll when he de.
termined TO appoint Chancellor Pitney
of New Jersey 10 the Supreme bench,
that appointment al once. without
waiting for the mud batteries and the
knockers to open upon him. Heretofore,
whenever any man has been presented
to the public as a probable choice of
the President for that succession, there
has been opened volcano Of mud
singing that has destroyed the chances
Of the probable appolptce. This was the
case with Judge Hook, with Secretary
Nagel, and doubtless would have been
the case with Chancellor Pitney if the
President had made delay in announc-
ing the appointment.
1t has come to be the case that ap-
pointments to judgcships are being pro
posed, canvassed. and opposed, precise
ly the same as appointments or selec-
tions for political offices are proposed
and opposed. Everything that can be
urged against the candidate is brought
forward against him if he is suggested
for such appointiye office, and the fact
that, as Judge, he has made ono or more
decisions that can be criticised. is
urged 6ercely against him as though
the ones who are urging 1t were in prin.
ciple in favor of the recall ot Judges
and holding them to personal account
for their decisions while, at the same
time, protesting against the recall and
against the idea that Judge ought to
be so held responsible
Chancellor Pitney was lucky indeed
III having his appointment run the
gauntlet without being beaten TO the
earth and overcome with volley OF
mud. So far as known. the Chancellor
is unassailable; but when it comes to
that, nobody is unassailable. and we
should not have been in the least sur.
prised to find the battery of detraction
opened upon him if his appointment
had been delayed, and showing made
against him as a trust Judge under the
trust laws Of the trust State OF New
Jersey, that would have blown him out
of the water. Prompt action saved him
and the country an unseemly wrangle

MANCHURIA KICKS,

Word from Mancburia is that the old
order is not entirely rooted out from
that province, aud that the officialdom
there is resisting the establishment of

that province, If they can succeed in
