when the proper time comes for her

JUDGE DECLARES
PUBL|C|ST GUILTY
DIRECTS VERDICT AGAINST
DR.. STOCKHAM
Federal Court Holds Her Literature
of a Nature to Be Excluded
From Postoffice and
Express

CHICAGO, June 6-Judge S. II.
Bethea in the federal court has directed
verdict of guilty against DR.. Alice b.
Stockham, II years old. and Edward b.
Beckwith, manager of the Stockham
Publishing company, charged with cir
culating improper literature by the
mails and express.
In deciding the case Judge Bethea
said:
when the laws were framed it was
not believed the general discussion of
the marriage relation was advisable.
If these persons believe they are right
in teaching these subjects so that the
young may learn of them they should
have their doctrines interviewer in the
laws of the land. What we have to do
is TO uphold the law as it stands"
Among the witnesses for the defense
was the Rev. Hiram w. Thomas
Dr. Thomas testified that he believed
the woman's work was uplifting in
stead Of harmful even to the young, and
that Mrs. Stockham has for years been
doing a work which Is to be commended
and not scoffed at.
1t was asserted by DR.. Stockham and
her witnesses that she has been in the
publishing business several years and
never had been questioned by the gov
ernment i'm regard TO the mailing what
she said to be medical advice. She de-
clared that she received hundreds of
letter from persons who had read her
books thanking her for helping them.
