Daily and Expense of Litigation.
One of the great. defects in our pres-
ent system of government in the delay
and expense of litigation. which of
course. works against the poor litigant.
The supreme court is now engaged in .
a revision of the equity rules to accom-
plish this purpose as to half our fed-
eral litigation. The workmen's com-
pensation act will relieve our courts of
e’lnw of a very heavy part of the present
dockets 011 the law side of the court
and give the court more opportunity to.
speed the remaining causes. The last.
congress codified the federal court pro-
visions. and we may look for and
should insist 11111.1 a reform in the law
procedure 1-111 as to promote dispatch of
business and reduction in costs.
We have adopted in this adminis-
tration, after very considerable oppo-
sition. the postal savings banks. which
work directlv in the promotion of
thrift among the people. By payment
of only 2 per cent interest on deposits
they do not compete with the savings
banks. But they do attract those who
fear banks and are unwilling to trust‘
their funds except to a governmental
agency. Experience. however. loads
depositors to a knowledge of the im-
portance of interest. and then seeking
a higher rate they transfer their ac-
counts to the savings banks. in this
way the savings hank deposits. in-
stead of‘belng reduced. are1 increased.
and there is thus availnble a much
larger fund for general investment.
For some years the administration
has been recommending the parcels
post, and now I am glad to say a
measure will probably be adopted by
congress authorizing the government
to avail ituclf of the existing machin-
ery of the postotllce department to
carry parcels of a reasonably low rate,
so that 11111 cotntnu111culion bct worn the
city and the country in ordinary mer—
chandise will be proportiouatcly as
cheap and as prompt as the newspaper

rcatly to 11 reduction in the cost and
comfort of living.

doue‘ls to treat this as one incidental
evil of a great expansivemovement

and to make sure that there will be no

It is far better to await the diminu»
tiou of this evil by natural causes than
to attempt what would soon take oh

Socialism involves the taking away of

party and the other the former l‘tcpub-
licans who have left their party. in

are consciously embracing socialism.
The truth is that they do not offer any
definite legislation or policy by which
the happy conditions they promise are
to be brought about. but if their-\prom-
ises mean anything they lead directly
toward the appropriation of what he-
longs to one man to another.
Don‘t Know Where They Are Going.
The truth is, my friends. both those
who have left the Republican party
under the inspiration of their present
leader and our.~ old opponents, the
Democrats. under their candidate. are
going in a direction they do not (lof-
lnltcly know. toward an end they can-
not definitely describe. with but. one
chief and clear object. and that, is of
acquiring power for their party by
popular support through the Promise
of a chung11 for the better. What.
they clamor for is a change. They
ask for a change in govcrumentv so
that tho uovcrumcnt may be restored
to tl111 people. as if this had not been
a people‘s govcruincut since the bcghr
111111: of the constitution.
These gentlemen propose to reform
the government. whonc present dc
