Tho Denver judge who has cited three
preachers OF that city to answer in his
court to the charge of contempt may nave
raised an interesting question OF privilege.
The language used by the preachers, nam
ing the judge and charging him specifically
with judicial corruption. would be held
hoelous as against a newspaper. and the
question Is whether the pulpit has higher
privileges In this regard than the press.
AS a general rule preachers are dignihed
and guarded in their treatment Of public
questions. but there are sensational preach
srs as well as yellow newspapers. and some
OF the Denver brethren seem to have been
dangerously personal in their denuncla-
Hons OF the Judge.

The clearinghouse system that has prc-
vailed In this city for some time past has
been defective in that IL has not embraced
AL OF the banks and banking institutions
OF the city. and its reports have therefore
been misleading 10 the public and Injurious
to the city. They are misleading because
;hey represent only a part Of the banking
business OF the city and are therefore use
lees for statistical purposes. and they are
Injurious because they depreciatc the CON-
nereiai activity and business Of the city.
Clearinghouse reports arc regarded IN
business circles as one OF the most accurate
Indications OF trade. and certainly there IS
no other equally accurate measurement OF
bank transactions. THIS IL true IL all tho

A very large part of the serious ARRAYS
and homicides occurring in this city are
committed in saloons. There were two on
Tuesday, both Of which will probably re-
suit fatally. The arrest and trial of the
men charged with committing such Of
lenses VIII cost the county a good round
sum One thing which might make these
ofenses less frequent would be to revoke
the license OF saloons in which brutal
fights occur. Such a provision faithfully
enforced would drive out OF the business
fifty or one hundred of the worst places in
the city. The fatal ARRAY of the saloon
should cease.

Justice Harlan is a lifelong Republican
and Chief Justice Fuller's supposed avail
ability rests solely on his recent dissent

by the way. was more conspicuous for
verbosity than for legal argument.

vision practically permits the circulation

Our workingmen will be more steadily
EN- ployed, will receive better wages,
their families be better housed, fed and

gives the American laboring man the

TEAMSTER FALLS UNDER
GAR. BUT Is MOI HURT

John Jameson, who resides at 700
Seventh avenue, had very close call
from death shortly after 1 O'Clock
this afternoon. Mr.. Jameson is a
teamster for f. b. McKown. While
crossing the street car tracks on Sec
ond avenue and Fourteenth street the
rear of his coal wagon was struck by
westbound Elm street car. He was
violently thrown from his seat to the
ground and fell under the car between
the fender and the front wheels, but
luckily escaped any serious injury,
although his nervous system was
badly shaken up.
