' The judicial snarl in which the counties i It, of Lawrence and Bntler have become in- : ?f. ,yelved i3 the natural result of the evil sys- i tern of multiplying elective judges in this state. The chief responsibility for this condition of things lies witli tlie judicary article of the new constitution, abounding in most slip shed and extraordinary lro lre lro visiens; the bad eminence among tlieni easily belongs te that section which creates every county of ever 40,000 popula tion into a separate judicial district, re gardless of its wants or relations. "Whatever of absurdity or derangement did net ensue from the constitution itself lias been added by the Legislature's con struction and enforcement of it. Thus we see the two little counties of "Wyoming and Sullivan erected into a judicial district, and the scant and widely separated coun ties of Fulton and Adams create another. Blair is a district of itself. Se is Cambria, and Huntingdon fenw half a third, when Judge Dean has said and indeed he has proved that he could easily deall the busi ness of Illair, Huntingdon and Cambria. Jleaver with scant 40,000 population has a judge of its own. though a single judge is able te de all the busiucs. of Montgemeiy with 100,000 population. The census of 1SS0 showed Butler county te have enough population te lie a separate judicial district. Heretofore it had lieen joined with Lawrence tomalte a double district with two judges. Under the pre cedents and a construction which has been given te the constitution, counties under the requisite population te be separate dis tricts may be " attached" te tliose of ever 40,000. But Senater Greer, desiring te le a judge, and fearing the closeness of the IKilitlcal situation in his own county of Butlert had the big llppubllcan county of Lawrence hooked en te Butler, and had two judges again assigned te the joint dis trict. It might have 1en with entire prac ticability attached te Beaver en ene side of it, or te Meicei en the ether, either of them constituting a small and light district, with their county seats in direct communication villi that of Lawrence, whereas Newcas tle and Butler are very inaccessible. The result of this legislative defeunity was that while the Democrats and Itepub Itepub Jicansef each county,respectively, nomina ted a candidate in each, the Lawrence county people, who lest both their candi dates ten years age, combined te elect them both new, and JleMicliael, Dem., and Ha ven, Hep., both of Newcastle, were chosen and Butler, the "separate district" county, is left without a judge and becomes the "annex" of the district. New the Butler candidates set up the theory that as their county constitutes "the district" its pcople alone, should have voice in cheesing the judge. Any decision hich may be readied will involve mero or less of absurdity and 'iveal still mere painfully the deformities of the constitution and of the present judi cial apportionment. The bitterness of the local and personal feeling resulting from the present situation is greatly heightened by the asperities le tweenthe candidates, the Judges sitting and contesting, and their counsel. Of his own motion Judge Bredin, judge and con testant, has entered a rule te disbar ene of he counsel opposed te him ; and nothing that may occur in tlie adjudication or set tlement of the dispute new will relieve the bench and bar of this hybrid district from the evil results of the present contention, the natural out-growth of the elective judicial system in ivnnsj lvania. A Leaf Frem the Jail Boek. "We wish Judge Patterson a merry Christmas I "We trust that with him and with all officials of high and low degree, and with all of mankind, en this blessed morrow that geed digestion may "wait en appetite" and "health en Ixitli." It is n season when everylxxly ought te Iks happy, or as happy as they can be. There will always be want and misery, and wretchedness and wee, and sin and suffer ing, no doubt. If we allowed the exist ence of tliese in the world te obtrude themselves at all times, te the exclusion of the brighter side, we could never be happy, and iwssibly if people were net happy the world would net be improved much by their universal misery and lamentation. But it is n H'lfish view of Christmas that 'mates It an occasion when one should close his eyes and step his ears te wrong and injustice and sorrow tliat can be alle viated ; and te which the Christmas mis mis kien of peace en earth, toward men geed Will, directs us te give heed. AS'e take the case of six friendless, homeless men, confined, as we belleve, unjustly, in the Lancaster jail, te be ene that calls for such attention. We print the story as we get it from their lips: and there is nothing & r en the record, there was nothing produced i ' upon their trial, te give the lie te it. It is t - true that aldermen and constables may i have lceii willing and anxious te convict r 'them; but in the light of the auditors' ic 1 1 Impert, that is no proof that the law's euicers r were influenced by nny higher purpese than i te get their fees. i, There nra no stockings lianging up for gb , IH6GO men, mere are no uriguuyi children Vwaltlng te welcome them, there are no ypruyew being wild for them, and if they 'iailns they went into It homeless, friend- u tew vagnuils. But there is net ene among lif Jiwm wl" does uet knew what free- frtem is; there is uet ene of them W?Ue deed net prefer it te confinement ; there is uet ene of them who does riot feel that his prison clothes me a badge of shame, and who would net rather ex change them for the rags or a free man ; thcrd Is nene of thorn, se far as has ever been shown, who has committed any crlme or even contemplated an ou"cne against nny law of Ged or man, except the statu tory' offense of being a "tramp ;" and when the Christmas bells ring, the memory of each ene of them may go Kick te happy' days in a happy home in the fatherland, which they quit for a country where they had heard of equal laws and enlarged freedom. Thev have each te vet serve two years and eight months of a three years sentence. "We wisli Judge l'.ittersen a meriy Christmas I ' rm - The Belief or the Supreme t'eurl. The scheme te relieve the state supreme court,by establishing an intermediate com t in each halt dozen judicial districts bundled together, and presided ever by the district judges, does net meet with great favor with the country judges or lawyers. The plan leeks a geed deal lietter at first sight than it really is. The objection is made te it that many of the judges have all they can attend te in their own districts ; and some of them no doubt have ; but it is our own opinion that they would all find the time needed for the appellate court, if they were men with the industry, quickness and clearness of judgment that geed judges should have. If, however, all our judges were of this kind, we would net need any additional appellate court. The common pleas judges would de their business tee well te give encouragement te numerous appeals from their decision. It is an undeniable fact that the great busi ness of the supreme court springs from the weakness of the inferior courts. And our remedy for the trouble gees te its root. We propose that the judges of the common pleas shall be men fit for their places ; and it is undoubtedly a mighty geed proposi preposi tion ns everyone will admit. But the diffi culty is te get such judges; and it seems te be insurmountable tinder our present sys tem of filling the bench. Popular election will always give us a large average of unfit judges, for the sufficient reason that the majority of pcople de net knew who will make a geed judge; and would net elect him if they did, against the direction of their self-constituted leaders. "While we have peer judges the supreme court docket must oveiilew. There is no gain in an intermediate court that will compensate for its added delay and cost. Te get a half-dozen common pleas judges te decide apieals from each ether, would tend te result in trades between the judges, te protect their decisions. "Tickleme and I'll tickle you." And without this bargain the tendency would le te stand by one another. With judges of the quality of our common pleas bench, the decisions, even if they were wholly influenced by such feel ing, would rarely lw unanimous ; and t he uncertainty of the final result would lie in no way abated, if, as should Ihj the case, an appeal te the supreme court would lie from a divided court lielew. But c-.in we net get geed judges ? "Will uet the Legislature submit a change of constitution te thopeeplc, providing for the selection of the common picas judges by the supreme court judges, as vacancies occur V The judges of the supreme court being familiar with thocharucteristiesef the judgesandlawyers,wliee opinions and argu ments come before them, are certainly best qualified te select geed judges for the lower courts. Why should they net Ikj given the the iwwer 'i It their business Ls tee great for them after they exercise it. it will be their own fault.

Felix Adler's address in Cliickering hall, New Yerk, the ether day, was deveted te answering tlie question " What isthe signlll catice of the Christinas festival te the peer and the dwellers In tenement houses ?'' He said tliat Christianity was in its early days a gospel of glad tidings te the jioer, that it premised a better era, an era of justice, sym bolized by the kingdom of heaven. The ltc llef of the early Christians was that society had reached a point of such utter de pravity that n miratie must at once intervene, and that a new order of things must seen begin uikui the earth. As years passed by ami this hepe was net realized, the fathers adopted n new doctrine, and it was then that Christianity brought forward as its central trutn an cxistence beyond the grave, where poveity and ether ills of life should be unknown. 'This question was etten asked : " Would it net be cruel te take from the fleer man this hepe tliat nlone brightens ds dreary cxistence T Would we net then drive hlni te communism and crime?" "Se speak tliose w he view the peer from afar and am net familiar with their lives, said Mr. Ailler. "I tell you the jioer nre net te 1st treated as children. They read and think, and this hepe of htppiucss in u luture life has already died out In the hearts of the great mass of them. Te these who nre thus left te their own resources what glad tidings does the Christmas festival bring?" He then proceeded te explain that Christmas is net a purely Christian festival, but a continuation of the old niiil-wlnter fcsthal, known te tlie Hermans and tlie Remans In celebration of the turning point lie t ween darkness and light, ft festival of spring celebrated in win ter, a festival of anticipation though net of fiultleii. "In this sense tlie peer m.iv celebrate the festival witli gladness,1' said Air. Ailler, "for nlthetigh the night of their misery is net yet past, the turning point has Itccn reached and the dawn is at hand. That this daw n may lie hastened there must, be a great mer.il movement among the ioer themselves." I le advocated tlie establishment of oe-opera-tlvo Industrial und commercial societies, by which the laborer should beisjine also the capitalist nnd should slmre In tlie profits which are new monopolized by the employ ers. Such institutions could only succeed by each member regarding net only his own profit but also the geed of the whele body, lluiice it was that a moral rovelutlon was ne cessary among the peer themselves for tlie iK'tterhig of their condition. On the ether hand employers had their part te de. The laborer lacked business talent and experience which were necessary le the success of co ce co eperatho societies.

It would be well for some farmers te form n club Ter the purpose of producing such a fowl; ns it Is well known tliat a single mating of the gobbler and hen renders all the eggs, that may be laid fertile, which is a great ad vantage in n large or numbers of small decks.
