important topics in addition to the

follows:
To the General Assembly: The
past two years have carried us
through the evolutionary changes in
our state government growing out of
the new constitution. The mandates
issued by the people have been re-
spected. The enlarged legislative au-

His Endorsement.

The late Lord Roberts once sent his
orderly to the bank to cash check,
says Pearson's Weekly, and the clerk
wanted it indorsed.
What for?" demanded the soldier.
We'll, it's the rule, and can't pay
you the money until you do indorse it,
he was told.
"Oh, all right" grumbled the mes
senger. So he took back the check
and bit the end of pen in deep medi-
tation for a minute or two. Then he
wrote this:
Il beg to say that have known Lord
Roberts for several years, and he has
proved himself, times without num-
Der, to be as brave as a lion, but al
ways kindly considerate to those who
serve under him. And l have, there
fore, great pleasure in respectfully
indorsing his check"

COMMISSION
FILES ITS REPORT
Recommends, Among Other Things, the
Enlargement Of Powers of Buckeye
State Supreme Tribunal.

Columbus. - Enlargement Of the
powers of the supreme court to
give that body power to prOmul.
gate rules of procedure to supplant
the antiquated sections of the code, is
prominent feature in the recon-
mendations of the special commits.
sion named by Gov. Cox to inquire
as to the causes of legal delay. The
report filed with the governor was
accompanied by bill drawn to cover
the enlargement of power recommend
ed The detailed report was written
by Simeon Johnson of Cincinnati, ex.
president of the Ohio State Bar asso.
citation.
The proposed bill may produce a
spirited controversy when it comes
up for passage in the house. 1t is
understood members of the state bar
also are divided.
The statement of former President
William H. Taft that there are count
less delays in the administration OF
Justice, that the cost is out of proper.
tion to the litigation and that crime
is unduly prevalent largely because of
the lax administration of justice in
this country, is quoted and approved
in the report. The commission says
1t is of the opinion that delay and
expense in the administration of JUS
tice will be greatly lessened by the
simplification and modification from
time to time of the rules of procedure
and practice through the bill pro-
posed"
The commission says the plan sug-
gested is plain common sense one,
practical and in no sense revolution
ary." BY it "all wise, tried and ap-
proved provisions" of the code may
be retained The court is said to be
the proper body to make notifications
of the rules, being equipped both by
knowledge and experience. Further
more the step is backed, the commits
sion says, by sound public opinion.
While the committee is not ready
to suggest abolishment Of grand
juries, the idea is presented for fur
ther consideration.
Under the terms of the proposed
bill wide discretion is given the su-
preme court, which is authorized to
formulate general and special rules
governing all courts Of the state to
such an extent as in the Judgment of
the supreme court any class Of courts
should be governed"
The rules are to cover "the forms
and filing of pleadings, the form and
manner in any court of the state Of
giving notice, of serving process of
any kind, of taking evidence in open
court, or by affidavit or by deposi-
ton"
The court would also be able to
prescribe forms and methods of TAX
ing DEGREES. 1t would be given power
to prescribe the manner of prosecut-
Ing error or other revisory proceed
ing ito any order, judgment or de-
cree of any court, board, commission
administrative officer, tribunal or other
legal authority"

In this connection II seems TO me
that some plan should be devised Of so

to make them cooperative. Doubtless
the trustees of the three boards could
devise a scheme which would work a

should be discouraged any movement

therefore, a proud people, but we
should be contented and happy peo-
pie as well. JAMES M. COX,
Governor.
