Editorial Comment
High Cost of Lawsuits
lINa Ii In rtnn PASfl

Judge Anderson, distinguished
member of the bench, told an audi
ence at Williamstown the other day
that his thirty-five years experience
had convinced him that one-half, 1t
not three-fourths, of the work OF the
courts was mere waste and extrava-
gance, profitable only to lawyers en-
gagged in prosecuting unnecessary
cases. Many judges are said to con-
cur in this opinion.
Americans are a litigious people.
The court procedure encourages ex-
pensive suits. The promise of VIC
tory through resort to technicalities
lures many litigants on to prolonged
efforts to win their cases, and law
yers are not wanting to suggest such
efforts.
If court business were restricted to
civil cases the situation would not be
SO unfortunate, as the burden would
then fall upon the litigants and the
public would not suffer. But the
dockets are crowded with criminal
cases also. The public safety is at
fected by the easy escape of GRIM
inals whose counsel know how to
employ technicalities in defeating
justice. Criminal cases are an ex-
pense to the public. When they
multiply and become mere avenues
of escape from justice it is little
wonder that crime is on the increase.
The public is doubly victimized, first
by the crime and next by paying the
cost of fruitless trials.
Reform Of court procedure, simpli-
fication of the laws, and elimination
of technicalities are sorely needed in
every State in the Union.

GREAT COUNTRY, THIS

Successful Americans, as a rule,
have been those who banked their
confidence in the growth and devel-
opment of the country and were
shrewd or lucky enough to place
their ventures where the big increase
was to occur. Such confidence has
been justified, nor has it outlived it's
days
Here are few facts published in
Railroad Data:
"Since 1850 the population of the
United States has doubled twice and
more.
1.-THE wealth of the nation has in
creased 40 times.
1.-THE value Of imports Has increas-
ed rs times.
'The value Of the iron industry has
increased 80 times.
"And railroad traffic, measured in
ton miles. has increased 400 times"
A wonderful country. this country
of ours-if we but treat it rightly
teeming with opportunities for doing
big things, and little ones, too, with
profit to the doer and to his fellows.
Millions upon millions Of honest
days works are going into the con-
struction for the future; millions of
homes are good, and from these the
me-dwellers are going out into the
world armored with good home In
fiuences. Sometimes we think of
them as too busy with the duties of
the day to attend to some Of the
mischief that is going on, to skim
some of the froth Of fermentation
and throw it where it belongs; but
the dominant purposes are yet. sound
and must be kept so.

Goodness me, boys and girls, we
left the two frightened little rabbits
in a dreadful fix, didn't we? Danny
Fox and Old Man Weasel glaring at
them from the bushes. Yes, even

Just then a joyous bark sounded
on the evening air, and the next mo-
ment the Yellow Dog Tramp jumped
right over the bushes. landing
squarely on the little back porch.
Raising big stick in his strong
right paw, he glared at the two
wicked old robbers and shouted:

Three. Quarters of a Century in
Maine


The Maine Three Quarter Century
Club has rather startling name 1t
implies that its members have all
lived at least seventy five years. And
that is precisely the case. xxx
1t is a good thing to revive the
old memories by an organization Of
this sort, and there is no State in the
Union where the septuagenarians
and octogenarians, and even the non
agenarians, are better fitted to make
a brilliant success of a club of the
kind than Maine. The climate of the
State is severe, but it Is highly in
MIGRATING. If one can manage to
live to be seventy-five there, one has
an excellent chance of living to be a
hundred. In fact, the new club al
ready has several members who are
more than one hundred years old.
Life in Maine is well worth living as
long as that to enjoy. 1t is full of
warmth and color. What memories
are heaped into it's lap. What full
ness of observation of nature, for one
thing, goes with three-quarters of

visitor to the State thinks that there

Those, who insist on riding upon
rubber are faced by some puzzling
problems. If the highways are to
be opened up to huge motor buses,
perhaps dimly lighted for the con-
ve4ience of busses among the pass
enSers. what chance will anybody
else on the highway have of escap-
ing demolition at night If they es-
cape in the daytime?
The New York World is SO deeply
impressed by the Importance of reg

WILL NOT BE DIscoNcERrEp.

A famous anthropologist, Sir Ar
thur Keith, is doomed to receive no
recognition of his attachments in the
institution, which the believers in the
Bryan anti-scientific attitude propose
to establish in Tennessee. The cause
for this may be found in the scien-
lists declaration that there has been
found the skull of Gallilean, who
lived at Capernaum some 10000 to
10000 years before miracles began 10
be performed there" Such informa-
ton would be shocking to the simple
faith of Bryan that the world was
made about 5000 years ago.
There seems to be nothing left for
the Bryanmentalists but to ignore
the matter entirely or deny the truth
OF it. 1t would be easy to declare
That the skull which the learned man
found was the skull of some poor un-
fortunate, who thought Noah's build
Ing OF the ark the undertaking of a
visionary, who failed to come in out
OF the wet in other words. OF course
1t easy to make statements which
one doesn't intend to prove.

tlously give it little of considera-
