With the experience of the An

torney- General can readily draw
Information against the remaining
members of Che Returning Boar,i
so as to avoid the rock on which
the Anderson case split.
I is hardly worth while to find
fanlt with the decision Of the cour,
of last resort III the Anderson case.
For ourselves, If there was n doubi
even about the legality of the COLI
viction in that case, We rejoice that
the highest tribunal to which the
case conll be carried has given the
benefit of that doubt. We desire
no unlawful conviction. They are
not essential to the cause We ad-
vocste. We should distrust. We
should condemn any case to which
illegal convictions were necessary,
or even advantageous. 1t can only
be an obiIque vision to which they
are even apparently beneficial. We
prefer to follow Law and Justice
where ever they lead: II it is t"
the discharge of Anderson, or of II
