BAKER AID MlTS INJUSTICE
Not Right, Says District Attorney, to
Put Men Only Accused and Wit

BAKER AID MITS INJUSTICE

Complaints have been numerous
among those indicted for crime. who
demanded a jury trial. on account OF
the long confinement between an appeal
and the hearing. This complaint comes
principally from those who have been
indicted for minor offenses and are
waiting 10 be tried in the Police Court.
In some cases those charged with a
petty assault. for instance. are compelled
20 remain in Jail several weeks before
they arc allowed to come to court and
tell their side OF the case to a jury
The complaipants are the poorer
classes of persons who are unable TO
give bond for their appearance in court.
Should Be New Building.
That some place with better accom-
modations than the Jail should be pro-
vided by the District for the confine-
ment of those waiting 20 be tried is
admitted by all who have the least
association with the administration OF
justice. Some are openly advocating a
separate building for detention of men.
In discussing the necessity for place
that would ser rate persons only in
dictcd for crime and those already con-
yicted. Distrjc, Attorney Baker said;
Il am heartily m favor of the erection
OF a building that will accommodate
those people who are awaiting trial.
II is unjust IN my mind 20 make those
persons who are not convicted and still
have the rights of American citizens
|, associate with and assume the level of
criminals who are forever stained with
the stigma of guilt.
Unjust 10 Witnesses
In many cases We are forced to con-
fine witnesses who have testified at a
trial. which has been continued, before
their testimony has been completed. 1t
would be injustice 20 send those people
TO Jail while they are waiting to testify.
