Ed. Silver State: | think fairnes,

posed upon me Saturday for con
tempt" of court | will admit that
technically a fine may have been as
sessable, but a few facts stated may
place a different construction on the
case.
l am employed by E. Reinhart &
Co., and at this season am very busy.
in fact, cannot keep up with the work
by working overtime. In the case be-
fore Justice Robins it was necessary
to secure but four jurors Mr.. Simon
Reinhart had already been summoned.
and, although he could ill afford to
take the time away from the store,
consented to serve Under the circum-
stances, and in view of the facts being
explained, it was no more than fair
that this firm should have been ex-
cused from furnishing more than one
of the jury.
Now, as l understand it, in failing to
attend court and act as a juror, this
being a civil case, before a justice,

the law of the State, but merely of

that l was fined 81 and costs-S1O.40
in total. The one dollar. am in
formed goes to the State, $500 recon-
penses the constable for the exertion
incident to serving the summons, and
the balance, $40, goes to soothe the
rufied dignity of the justice.
am well aware, as are others, that
many persons have been summoned
heretofore in this same court of JUS
tice. and have failed to appear No
note was taken of their failing to
serve, and no fine imposed. | respect
fully insist on knowing why Justice
Robins did not subject them to the
same exactions, and why he does not

fined, as he did me. If it is not done
no fair minded person will hesitate to
say his action was partial and actual

the dignity OF the law.

say that neither l nor my friends feel
that the act for which fine was i'm
