FAcTIONALISM OR JUSTICE?

In the course of its final brief upon
the disbarment proceedings previous
to expected Supreme Court decision,
the morning press makes, among 9TH
ers, these few remarks:
Human nature is variable and prone
to elasticity, and judges do not cease
to be men. Nevertheless they must
submit to more searching criticism
than those whose responsibilities are
lower. There are very few judicial Of
hCCrs who will accept brides This Is
q coarse and uufrcQuent mark Of cor
rupuon, which is so clear that Il is
usually discorued But there are in
Vulnerable ways, In which judicial in
dependence and probity may be stain
ed, many Of which, though they can
b, cOniectucd, are beyond actual de-
lection. InCrdinate affection tor in
ordinate political and personal enmItyJ
for particular attorneys is one mode
Of divcrtng business that is most
dangerous. Still more subtle, and even
more injurious, Is the secret determine
ton Of a Judge to promote special
interest or particular faction. With
ont word without even look, that
could be usel as impeaching evidence,
II is possible. though very unusual, for
a judicial officer to be unjust TO the
core. BY the very tone Of his voice in
charging Jury or in addressing coun-
sci, he may affect a decision"
The paren;hctiCal clause is the Bull
Ietin's With the addition Of the par.
enthetical remark, the paragraph from
the morning editorial utterance gives
q reasonably good expression Of pre-
yaling public opinion formed by close
watch OF The attitude OF the Supreme
Court toward Attorneys brought be-
fore It on the information OF the At
tOrney General. This community is
small 1t knows the personal and pro-
| fessional relations of the judges and
I those upon whose acts they are called
upon TO pass. II knows the riots OF
| personal antaGonism that have run in
| legal circles in which Judge and attor.
neys have been prominent factors,
The community has had occasion to
realize the shortcomings Of human
nature even in the halls of justice and
can appreciate the incipient influence
personal prejudice or the folly of eX-
pedients eXerts on judicial determine
tons. 1t knows what struggles have
been made hy those outside judicial
circles to wreck careers and destroy
regulations.
For these reasons. the decision of the
Supreme Court will be studied with
the closest interest by tho people OF
this Territory and all citizens acquaint,
ed with our local affairs. The decision
OF the court will he weighed in tn,
balance OF honest public opinion TO de-
termine whether the judges indiyid
ually and collectively have reviewed
the evidence before them with singl,
purpose TO uphold the honor Of tn,
American .1ch and render true Amer
lean justice or have been swayed by
surrounding factionalism and thereb!
become means to II factional end.
