The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1894-10-31

WHILE speaking of the Lexow Com
mittee, we cannot refrain from saying
a word about Mr.. Scudder's absurd at
tack on Senator Daily, last Sunday. He
inveighed against the Senator's sym
pathy with crime,' which he pre-
tended to believe was what took him out
of bed at six A. NJ. to keep Mrs. Here
man from being kidnapped to New
York. Dr. Scudder is wrong. 1t was not
sympathy; it was $25. We hear the
Senator is kicking himself because it
was not $500. Common rumor had it
tina he had no idea what the case was
when he was retained, and so tool a
commonplace fee. Had he known then
what he knows now, he would have
got a good, big fat retainer. Mr.. Scud-
lawyer would have done all that Mr..
DAILY did, if retained in the case. TIL
Mr.. Flavel MCGEE would have resisted
the Kidnapping of a citizen out of the
State without due process of law just
as theoretically as the Senator did, pro-
viding the usual consideration for their
services was Forthcoming.
Mr.. Scudder's ak was just bun
combe-just like Goff's ridiculous appeal
to Mayor Wanser, who has-as Golf well
knows-about as much power in the
premises as the al of Japan. The
sad part of it is that Mr.. Scudder is
hardly such a fool as not to know it is
buncombe. But then, these are cleo
ton times.
