JUDICIAL FRAUDS.

The Out-of-Toxyn Summons Outrage.
There has been fresh outbreak within a
few days of the often-tiesclibed outrage Of
dragging people living in the City Of Chi
cago before Justices whose Offices are
situated in some of the county towns,-in
Thornton, or Lelnont, or Darlington, or
some other outlying precincts. It Is doubtful
whether there can be found anywhere else
in the United States a law which allows d
creditor to sue debtor outside of the town
in which they both live. There was time
when it was permissible elsewhere, but that
has all been done away with. In Ohio, for
instance, it is expressly provided that where
4 debtor and creditor both live in the same
town the suit must be brought there. It is
not permissible, as here, to bring it in any
part of the county. An effort was made ut
the last session of tile Legislature to get
through bill remedylng this local evil, but
it was nobody's business In particular,
and therefore tllis excellent measure was de-
feated. But such general attention has been
der color Of law by means Of this infamous
provision that the members Of the Legisla-
ture elected this fall will have their atten-
tion called to it by their constituents, and
will go down to Springfield alive to the ne

the mistl!eeds Of the Trask gang have

forced By this means, and BY the annoyance
to which they can be put, into paying what
they owe. But it has also become painfully
apparent that this provision Of the law may
blackmail. Claims which are utterly bogus

The Communists OF the southwest section
Of the city met at West Twelfth street Tur.

Charles Williams, of the Eighteenth Ward,
who travels from place to place to distribute
his indignation, and preside over the inlig:
nant in their frenzies, was called to the
chair. IIe introduced A. F. Parsons as the
first orator, who expressed his indignation
in CORY harangue, and appealed to his
auditors to contribute literally from their
earnings to hire lawyers to help Stauber get
Ills seat.
The next speaker was h1r. Prendergast.
His indignation took another form, and
oozed out In the shape of theories as to how
the ballot-box had been manipulated, and as
to how McGrath had. been counted in and
Stauber counted out

appearance stirred up the Indignation OF the
audience, and caused stampede from the

indignation by quoting. from Andrew Jack
