Modern journalism has broadened and news
papers Of this day end generation can and should
permit correspondent to express opinions af-
fecting the public veal, if properly authenticat'
ed.
The Court was criticised on account of the
expense incurred while there was no business
for the Court. 1t certainly was not the fault of
the Court that the expense was incurred, as there
were several cases on the civil list and two
commonwealth cases, both of which had to be
provided for in case they would need to be tried.
While we disagree with our correspondent in
censuring the Court for something they could
not avoid, yet in this age of enlightenment and
civilization newspaper can publish opinions
of correspondents even though they differ from
those held by the Editor.
While we are at all times willing to permit
the expression of opinions, when put in courte-
Gus language, and signed by the author, but we
are not responsible for such opinions unless en-
dorsed by editorial opinion.
