I CHICAGO.
! The Eelanxo Case iu Court and What
| Followed.
The Chicago Democrat has been persfstcntin in
its attacks upon ths Recorders Court and its
ofFcsrs, at times rising to the pitch Of chars-
| ing upon Recorder Wilson and District Attor-
+, ney Haven crimes against public justice which
1t sustained should place both Of them 4: the
bar for trial and sentence That neither Of
them has been tho sufferer from these charges,
always made more By tnainuation than with
directness and detni], seems sufficient proof
TINT the foundation in fact has been lacking:
In The Democrat Of Monday morning m edi-
torial Of some length, aud possessed Of most
characteristic features, closed with the follow
| ing paragraph:
| Recorder Wilson is represented as insinuat-
| Ing what he knows TO be false, that the present
| administration protects gamblers. 1flc know
| Of any gamblers in this city 1t is 1ls duty to
! have them bronght to Justice, and he criHsi-
miles himself When he lnsinuatcs that there
I are any such. II there arc no gamblers, tEcn
| he has iusinuated a lalsehood. He tan taks
| e;thrr horn Of the dilemma he p1eascs.

tional'y to preface and prejudice in n trial set
