COURT RULES AND TIE Laws
DELAY.


COURT RULES AND THE LAWS
DELAY.
The supreme court of the United
States, through a committee consist
ing of the chief justice and Associate
Justices Lurton and VanDeryenter,
has for about year and a half been
working on a plan for the revision of
the rules of that body and of the sub
ordinate national courts. The opinion
OF every federal judge in the country
was sought, and Justice Lurton went
TO England, where he received valu-
able suggestions from the Lord Chan
cellor. As a result of all this careful
work a new set OF rules in equity
procedure was announced recently
which il is believed will be a great
Improvement on the former rules,
which. despite great changes in the
business Of the courts and Of the coun-
try, have not been revised for so years.
The chief justice in explaining the
new rules claimed for them improve
ment in four respects. The first re-
lates to the exercise of power by
federal courts. The second simplifies
the modes Of pleading to bring the
parties quickly to an issue. The third
reform is as TO taking testimony in
patent and copyright cases to render
each work less expensive.
Probably the most important reform
was that recited by the chief justice
as the fourth and provides for the
taking of testimony in courts in most
cases instead of referring the matter
TO a special master or referee TO take
testimony and report back to the
court. Hereafter lawyers who encum-
Der the records in equity procedure
may find themselves subject TO a fine.
The new rules provide that testimony
shall be printed in narrative form in
stead of by questions and answers.
The rules also are drawn to eliminate
dilatory pleading and prevent rever-
sails on account Of mere technical
words that do not go to the subject.
matter Of the controversy.
Provision is made that preliminary
injunctions shall not issue without
notice to the party sought to be en-
Joined and other restrictions are
thrown about the issue Of temporary
injunctions and restraining orders.
The new rule on injunction pro-
vides:
mo preliminary injunction shall be
granted without notice to the opposite
party, nor shall any temporary re-
straining order be granted without
notice to the opposite party unless II
shall clearly appear from spvcIflc
facts shown by affidavit or by the
verified bill that immediate and ire

Let US have charity, because
They cannot all be sages.
And II they do the best they can

When their mistakes are pointed out

Let Us assume that just because
They have q lofty station
They have not got II In for Us
As well as for the nation.
1t is their wish, we may be sure,
To so perform their duty
To leave q record that will be,
Indeed, thing OF beauty.
Too harsh at times we deal with them
And say that they are after
The spoils of ONCE and are thus
No better than the CRATER

Their wish is better than their deed.

It's well to draw the curtain.

VOTE ON IRISH HOME
RULE.

The latest tests Of the strength Of
parties in the house Of commons indi-
cate that the present liberal ministry
will be forced to ask the electorate
of the united kingdom for one more
vote of confidence before Irish home
rule can become an established fact.
The majority upon which the govern
ment can depend has nearly vanished
several times, in critical situations,
and any day another test OF the tenn
per Of the house may Gust the AS
quith ministry.
The best informed politicians In
London expect to see another general
election before the home rule issue
can be finally disposed of. When
that test OF public sentiment comes
there will be one of the most bitterly
contested campaigns in the history of
the united kingdom.
Recent threats of civil war in Ulster
have done much to shake the conf
dence of weakened liberals in the
wisdom and timeliness of the policy of
the present government. The conserv-
encouraged by numerous victories in
recent bye-elections and they will go
into another fight with the energy
born OF their consciousness that if
they fail again to carry the country at
the polls their last chance of success
full resistance to the liberal program
for Ireland will pass away forever.
II is a prospect for hard fighting
such as Americans, in their most
strenuous campaigns, can hardly I'M
derstand. The intensity of feeling
aroused by the home rule issue is of
the kind which leads to common talk
OF civil war in Ireland. The social
and business future of the united
kingdom is believed by millions of
voters to be at stake upon the final
battle over the question Of self-gov.
eminent for that island.
When that crisis comes, America, as
heretofore, will give its sympathy and
good wishes to the home rule cause
and the liberal party. by a very heavy
preponderance of the public senti-
ment Of the country.

The promptness with which Presi-
dent-elect Wilson has announced his
purpose to call a special session Of
congress April Is, OF Whereabouts. for
the fulfllment OF democratic platform
pledges, is pleasing to the American
people. The reasons which the next
president gives are all sufficient. One
is, TO keep the party's faith with the
people; the Other is. to allay any feel
ing OF uncertainty that may exist as
TO what may be expected. Frankness
and fairness. honesty and principle
are TO constitute the Wilson program.
