THE West Bend Times. in ouotinp

THE West Bend Times, in quoting a
notice given The Plot by The Evening
Wisconsin on the subject of libel suits,
offers the comment "that kindred feeling
makes us wondrous kind" We think
that The Wisconsin is entitled to the
support OF every paper in Wisconsin in
the libel suits in which it is involved
If The Wisconsin had clearly abused the
privilege accorded the press, it deserves
and should receive merited punishment.
But lawyers and judges have felt them
selves above criticism. Courts are en-
dowed with such power that an abuse
of it must necessarily and frequently
accompany its exercise. The American
people would never think of giving such
arbitrary power into the hands of an indi :
vidual but for the confidence in the char.
acter of men placed upon the bench. A
man fit to be judge is supposed to have
sufficient elevation of character to be
above all the little petty tyrannies ana
preiudices which influence the conduct
OF ordinary mortals. Lawyers, as a
class are accorded privileges which are a
disgrace alike to intelligence and civil
cation. The license to libel and defame
without being subject to the consequence
is an outrage upon public rights. A wit
ness or litigant is placed completely at
the mercy of men sometimes coarse and
brutal, and denied the right of defense
or justification. What a parody upon
justice to assert that lawyer may with
impunity ridicule and defame party to
r suit, or witness in the case! 1t is an
anachronism end disgrace.

\ FRIEND of Roscoe Coukling says
the senator from New York is in pos
session of facts which show an immense
amount of corruption in Blaine and Gar
field. That lie proposes to aid this mat
ter even though it should destroy the
republican party. That it is better that
party should be destroyed than that the
people should be robbed.
II never rains but it pours. The pre-
prietor of The Evening Wisconsin was
discharged by Judge Mallory on the
contempt proceedings instituted by Matt.
Finch. 1t published comments on the
decision by prominent citizens and Finch
had Cramer again brought up before
Judge Mann for contempt. This thing
is becoming monotonous.

WIrH what elegance of diction, force
of propriety and consciousness of moral
ity did the republican convention at
Chicago denounce the democratic party
because of its lust for office and thirst
of patronage, and still we find one of the
bitterest wars ever inaugurated within a
party going on between two sections of
the republican party, headed on the one
side by the president elected by the party
which gave such forcible expression to
the besetting sin of the democracy, on
the other by the leading senator, for
those very spoils. Oh, Consistency,
thou art jewel, far more rare than the
philosophers stone.

CoNKLING is severely criticised because
of his bitter opposition to the appoint
ment of Robertson to the position of COL
lector of customs for New York. That
Conkling is arrogant and dictatorial no
one can deny. But neither can it be
charged that he has been officious in
giving the president advice as to his ap-
pointees. Garfield consulted Conkling
as to certain appointments, and that
which was most strongly urged by the
senator at the interviews, was that
Robertson should not be appointed. In
this matter he was sustained by his col
league Mr.. Platt, by the vice president
and by the representative Of New York
in the presidents cabinet. These are
the most prominent men in New York
both in point of ability and in position.
Their action could not be regarded as
debating the course of the president be-
cause in his letter of acceptance he COM
mended the very course which these men
pursued.
Robertson is the avowed political enc.
my of Senator Conkling. He makes no
secret of his purpose to break him down
in the state which he has so long and SO
ably represented. The power put in his
hands through the position given him is
sufficient to accomplish this purpose
Is ii reasonable to expect that any man
would willingly consent to make his ene-
nay 50 formidable as to make opposition
hopeless? Has the president acted hon
orably III building up rival to the New
York leader and endowing him with such
power that he can become the autocrat
OF the party in that statel Is Conkling
to blame in trying to defeat an appoint
ment which transfers the power he has
held, to hostile hands9 There are two
sides to this question and any man of
spirit could not act differently from
what Conkling did. Those opposed to
Conkling's leadership were justified IN
their support of Robertson. Those who
preferred Conkling as leader were
equally justified in opposition and Conk-
ling Is assuredly one Of these.

IT now transpires that Jay Gould
worked energetically for the confirmation
of Stanley Matthews. This speaks badly
for Matthews. No judge should owe his
elevation to the bench to the lobbying
powers of railroad magnate. Gould
sent dispatches to many senators urging
the confirmation of his man. Should
such tactics continue TO prevail the SUI
