A MATTER OF TASTE.

lowing, clipped from eXchange
'The editor of the Albuquerque Journal
used to give us a sermonette every Sunday
morning before breakfast, but for the past two
or three months he has been passing the plate
around to the congregation"
1t is all a matter of taste. Someone supports
the preacher. Some preachers pass the plate and
receive their support from those who wish the
preacher to follow the dictates of his conscience
what he says. Others accept the engraved check of
the copper king with the big watch charm, who
adorns the front pew, and then preach the gospel
according to the dictates of the magnates pocket

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
THE FEDERAL COURTS.
(From the New York Times.)


In the last few years the American Bar Asso-
citation and of the State Bar Associations
have advocated certain improvements in the pro
Cedure and practice of the Federal courts. Primary
among these is the lowering of legal expenses, The
cost Of going to law is an ancient plant. Surely
its lessening is more than a counsel of perfection.
Other suggested changes uniformity Of cCm-
mon law practice in all the United States and some
arrangement that will relieve Federal judges OF the
necessity, imposed upon them, of passing upon
accounts which they don't have time thoroughly
to inspect. s'.'. ..t
Something like adequate pay for Federal judges
has also been urged long and hitherto vainly The
circuit judges get $500 year the district judges
$780, Twelve states pay their supreme court
judges more than the latter sum; five as much,
and state judges themselves underpald. In all
the wealthy and urban states at least these saar-
les are pitifully meagre. Unless judge has pr-
vate means, how is he to bring up and educate his
family and provide for his old. age? The Federal
bench has lost some of it's best men simply be
cause they couldn't live their pay The United
States can't offer the splendid rewards OF the most
successful lawyers 1t keep in its courts the
ton, Otherwise only rich men or mediocre men
will to dispense Federal justice.
The whole matter Of Federal court reform is
now before congress. concurrent resolution dt-
reefs the appointment of a joint committee of
twelve to consider what legislation in regard to
the Federal courts. their procedure and judges
would tend to improve the administration of JUS
uce and to report to congress bill for that pur-
pose. Thus general pondered plan of Federal
court reform be formed Congress can deal
of tinkering with this detail and that. Distinguish
ed lawyers now in Washington to recommend
the passage of this resolution. 1t ought to be
passed The many lawyers in congress must be
aware of the need Of improving the Federal courts
and the financial condition Of Federal judges,
