what Atrocity Is Here Foreshadow-
ed


The Evening Journals yellow chief,
Mr.. Ebert Rappleye, and Mr.. Joseph A.
Dear, have been in close relations with
the Republican members of the Gledhill
investigating Committee ever since they
Were named. 1t is therefore probable
that what it says about the committees
plans is authentic.
We therefore read with alarm the fol-
lowing announcement which appeared in
the leading editorial in yesterdays edition
of the Journal
After this investigation gets under way
It is very probable that there will be
another and different kind of criticism
aroused by the fact that the committee
may not make all of its sessions and the
testimony of all of its witnesses publlc.
1t is well understood by those who nave
had any experience in such matters that
certain men who may be the most vaiu-
able sources of Information to suen a
committee, and who are moved py d ue-
sire to give, their services TO the COM
fpittee are prevented from doing so from
two causes. The first is the horror Ihal

a position that the rag-tag and rabble can
begin to yell = Squealert' and the SECOND
i. is the persecution, into which all the m
genaity of the Devil himself enters 10
hound a witness for months after he has
performed a service to the people py
going on the stand.
Assuredly. If the Committee holds star
chamber sessions, the Constitution OF the
49,, 49, - -x1ott1o-c fnpyo nf
words. The primary right of every ac-
cused person is to be confronted with his
aceusers, and if it is competent for this
committee to conduct a secret inquisition'
all our vaunted rights and liberties are no
more thar talk and humbug.
We have, from the first, looked forward
to much that was outrageous in the ON
ing proceedings. but we have never
imagined, even for a moment that an
outrage of this description could be in
contemplation.
What? Open the ears of the Committee
to any sneaking, skulking, cowardly cur
who longs to crafty the venom of his
soul by smirching the character of some
public man, but who is too base and
cowardiy to meet him face TO face and
give manly utterance to his grievances.
Surely. nothing like this was ever pro-
posed in a country pretending to liberty
and justice. 1t reminds one of the mon
strosities of the Dreyfus trial in Paris.
The "Journal' thus endeayors to palliate
the crime
It would be a grievous mistake for the
committee to make all of its sessions
secret, and the reasons why it would be
a mistake are simple and apparent. But
there will doubtless be a witness occa-
~siopaily who must be examined in secret,
and when the wisdom of the committee
leads it TO FAKE such a course there will
perhaps be another rampant outbreak of
criticism.
Criticism is not the word.
Condemnation of the most utter de-
scription is the only visitation that the
public and the press can make to meet
the abomination of the thing which the
journal proposes.

gone we conned with each shrieking

They made name, and it's still the same,
For the fighting Yankee tar.
Our grandsires lived, and our grandsires
fought, with colors nail'd to tie

And we follow the lead, in the days now
here, they gave in the living past.
Laid yard to yard, they loved to fight
where their cannon would leave
their scar
And they made the name, and it's still
the same, with the fighting Yankee
