In no modern country has technicali ty, subterfuge and every legal tortuosl tv reached such a development as in the United States. In none is there such an utter lack of organization of the courts. In none is reversal, retrial and every form of delay so prevalent. In none is it so difficult for a poor man to obtain justice. The condition amounts, as ex-President Taft so clear lv said, to a practical denial of justice. The scandal is great. Yet reform is slow. The myth of the sacredness of the law and the courts m strong, and very ably promoted by some hundred thousand gentlemen of the legal pro fession who profit by these condi tions. TYe must not lay tampering hands upon the Ark of the Covenant: It is therefore agreeable to see one of the ablest writers on law reform, himself a lawyer. Mr. George YV..A1 ser writing in the World's Work a series of articles on what may be none in this country toward obtaining cheap and speedy justice. We especial ly commend these articles to the at tention of our readers, of our lawmak ers, of our law associations, and of our' most recent ex-president now pro fessor of law in a great university, who has SDoken so bravely in criticism of the courts in former days and who mieht now so fruitfully throw the weight of his influence in the direction of this profoundly necessary reform. Justice in this world is at best a clumsy approximation; but the advan taees of the law ought not to lie with the man who can hire the sharpest and most unscrupulous lawyers to play upon ignorance and prejudice. Justice can, as Mr. Alger is trying to show, be made relatively swift and cheap by the application of efficient business methods to an archaic system.

THE WAY OF THE TRANS GRESSOR SEEMS VERY GOOD. i Slier City Grit.1 It is said a certain preacher sup plies the prisoners in jail with copies of his sermon. Verily is. the way of the transgressor hard, especially it that preacher is of the long-winded kind who makes up in length i what he lacks in quality. Repetition is the sleepy man's friend and many a nap is fully completed before many a preacher even gets wound up good and then he is "good for anywhere over an hour. WONDERFUL CO-JSH REMEDY.
