LETTERS TO EDITOR
Regarding Jewish Citizens

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 The following from late copy of the spectator of Portland. Ore, is suggestive and possibly apropos to this locality;
 We find the Jews kindly, loving, able brave. generous and wise: when we would buIld a. monument to a Catholic pioneer or priest, or spread the gospel among the heather at home or abroad, we go to the Jews for subscriptions. when we need money for civic purposes, the Jews read fly respon, if, indeed they do not ini- tiate the project When the people take counsel as to the ways and means or bettering conditions, we ask advice from the Jews. in times of stress we go to the Jews for aid as matter or Tact, we allow the Jews to share with us in everything-but social equality. Let us not talk of Russian discrimination against tho Jews. Let us rather ask about "American'' discrimination against some of our best and most public spirited citizens"
 The above appealed to the writer be- cause the attitude of our people is very similar to what seems to be the situation in Portland. Ore. I can find but one ex- ception to the general charge above men toned and that is the charge of diserlm- mating against the Jew because of the apprehension that may lead to social equality" The fact is, knowing the Jew as do, am constrained to believe that the Jew does not seek social equality, much less desiring it. He fears the pos abilities of "the melting pot' ending pos sibly in the elimination of the Jew l, foi one. have come to the conclusion that the Jew Is still needed in the affairs oi the world and that his absorption would be a distinct loss to humanity

Figures on Civil Cases

The figures of civil cases are likewise gratifying There were filed in the mu- niepal court of Chicago, in 1907. the first year of its existence. S7,104 civil cases, Of which 30,S77 were disposed of within the year. In 1908, there were filed 49.002 cases, and there were disposed of 16,S45 In 1909 there were filed 47113 cases, while 48, 490 were disposed of
 These figures mean that there has come into being court which is doing the work that a court ought to do. It has made justice cheap, speedy, and final. The people have learned of it, and they resort to if in increasing numbers. The poor litigant finds that it awards him an immediate judgment against which his rich opponent may gnash his teeth in vain Litigants. rich or poor. find 1t, moreover, court which sees It's judg- nents executed. It is court constituted to serve those who love and seek equity ard which those with unjust causes will not invoke.
 MT Hale concludes his splendid articles thus:
 This result so long desired, this effi- cieney in the punishment of wrongdoing and the award of civil justice, has come through the application to a court of whab one has never before been given--eom- nonsense business methods, chiefly through centralized executive manage ment and independence of outside eon- troll At last we have one court simple, strong. accessible, and swift. 1t has been in operation now for three years, and the demonstration of it's success Is complete. This year at least two cities, Buffalo and Milwaukee. will copy if; dozen more. among them Philadelphia, St Louis and Atlanta, are preparing to do so.
 "Why has 1t taken America so long 10 develop an efficient court?
 How long will it require to persuade our various archaic judicial bodies of ev- cry dignity and degree. that like eff ciercy is possible in every court in the land?"

Master of Rules of Practice

The municipal court of Chicago was, by the act creating it, made the master of it's own rules of practice. 1t might, and
 # did, refuse the written instruction rule. l. made rule requiring the opposing counsel to make any exception 10 the judges charge before the jury retired, and ever thereafter hold their peace. Less than one-tenth of per cent of cases decided in the Chicago municipal court
 in the 1irst year of it's existence were reversed on appeal This showing has been more than maintained subsequently,. The municipal court being the creator of it's own rules, the court of appeals may not reverse it for error Of practice The court of appeals may not presume that harm resulted to the defendant because of error of the municipal court. II may only reverse when it is of the opinion that substantial injustice was done on the merits of the case.
 That justice swift and sure is a deter rent to the commission of crime Is borne out by the records of this unique court.
 Under the old system in Chicago in 190b there were 9276I arrests with only Ss7e convictions: in 1909 under the mu- nicipal court there were 66,391 arrests with f2, ,f79 convictions and each year since has shown a corresponding decrease of ar rests with a greater number of oonvic- tions There are persons more punished than there used to be, but there are fewer arrests, fewer to arrest The crminaIly disposed are not allowed to run at large. committing further offenses when they should be paying the penalty of crimes already committed.
