LAWYERS, FAIR TRIAL.
iCinoinnAti Gnzette.l J


What does n lawyer mean when he pro-
fesses his readiness to defend Guiteau, and
gives it as his reason that Guiteau is as
much entitled as any other man to n fair
trial? What does he mean by a fair trial ?
Is IL that there is any doubt that Guiteau
with premeditation shot the President unto
death? Is il that there is any question OF
guilt yet to be tried2 Does he pretend
that the question OF sanity is to be taken
out of the facts of Guiteau's conduct, and
is to be tried by asking medical ouncks
whether the person who did this could
have been in his right mind? He means
nothing of all this. What he means is
that although he is guilty as charged, he
has the right to the chances OF duel at
law in which inscriptions lawyers shalt

Col. Don Piatt, in letter to the Press,
thus pays lls respects to the Gin. Gazette:
"Mr. Smith is singularly shrewd
Scotch Irishman, from the north OF Ireland
who, beginning life az mechanic, worked
his way into social and political recognition
through the sterling qualities that make
him loved and respected where he ia best

journal to the somewhat exceptional char
acter TO which 1t grew under Hammond,
Wright, and other SOLEMN journalists of a

the United States that has a Just claim to
being considered a high moral organ, Civ
ing out editorials that subscribers read, the
Gazette is that Journal. II is taken by
clergymen, bankers, merchant, and busi-
hess men generally, and the way in which
your clergyman, banker, merchant, and any
other business man screws himself into AN
easy char and reads that paper from end
TO end Is truly edifying. Some OF the edi-
toriais, especially those from the brilliant
and speculative pen Of Sam Reed, at times
make the said clergyman, banker, merchant,
nnd other business man s4uirm, and sp-
pearing in any other journal would send
the business first through the paper with
prpfane emphasis. But as they come sane

shal Henry-Dear Sir Our last attempt
on our friend Guiteau failed. The COM
rade missed his calculation little. Ny
effort comes next and it can't fail. My
object in writing is this: that we don't want
to hurt any one but the miserable assnssin,
and don't want to hurt hair of any one
else, but Mr.Edelin and others must not
display 20 much zeal in the future, or they
viii get hurt. / had great difficulty in
keeping my squad from shooting Edelin,
and the driver last Saturday, as they were
pursuing the comrade. Had they shot
him, neither Edelin nor the driver, nor
any of the crowd would have reached the

will be better for them. Don't bother that

almost naked into driving winter storm;
