Always Butting In.
On several occasions this visitor has
tried TO take up the burdens OF his most
md fight them out In his own way, whlGh
rs not quite the ministerial way In
he presence of number of women ne
called The Tribune reporter a prevari-
,ator but no notice was taken OF the
insult. Shaw's manner WAS oggres-
sve and belligcrent and he went out
ot his way to create the opportunity 10

WAS welcome to the columns OF TINS
Questions he Might Answer.
There were several questions the doctor
might have answered. As he may pre-
fer TO digest his answers before com
hitting them to paper, they arc given
below. Perhaps he Will filo the answers
later.
tho bench OF Judge Brown What right
has layman to do this thing that Is
accorded rs n privilege to visiting
Jurists7
that bench at the left of tho Judge and
listen TO him PROFOUND his filthy and
Indecent questions 10 that young woman
without raising your voice In protest?
Shaw Took It All In.
Why did you open your eyes and
your ears and your mouth and your little
soul and drink in those questions that
brought the burning hectic flush TO that
girls face with such seeming apparent
relish7 Did they strike a responsive
chord in your soul? Is that why you de-
voured every line OF that childs face
with your eyes as she threw her hand
up TO her head though To ward on the
blow of some cruel monster?
Should Have Called Judge Down.
why did you not minister of the
gospel OF jesus Christ expostulate with
the misguided Judge and ask him to az
ioh m
the girl convict herself? This question
was withheld up to the present because
you were a guest OF this city. and II was
thought you would have sufficient dignity
and good sense TO keep out OF discus
sion which did not concern you
What Shaw Asserted,
And why DR. Shaw, did you. i'll a
subsequent conversation with The TTib
une reporter, not OF his seeking. assert
that you had seen many similar trials
OF young girls elsewhere where the same
questions and worse were asked, and
Justify the conduct OF Judge Brown In
doing SOP Are YOU father? And II SO.
how would you like your child asked such
questions in open court for the editcation
OF the curiosity monger2 Would you
really say II was all right. or would you
plead Twccdledum and Twecdledee?
Anxious to Hear Details.
All the above questions are framed as
queries. but they arc none the less facts.
Il
shock received from hearing the bald and
brutal questions of the Judge In his at
tempt to convict the girl the gusto dis
played by yourself in taking In tho de-
tails was the most pointed part OF the
examination
Why Circulate Round Robinp
One more question If. as you are
quoted as saying from the pulpit Sunday,
no one has ever questioned your veracity,
why have you gone about the city with
n round robin, getting signed statements
of persons to bolster up your distorted
View OF tho case2 The truth needs no
support.
Manhood Counts in West.
How many reporters did you over
know to lie? And why did they lle7 or
Is II not a fact that statements published
at your instance in perfect good faith by
the reporters were at variance with the
facts2 Whatever may be the moral
status OF the Indianapolis reporter, tho
newspaper man of this region does not
have to resort to mendacity to hold his
Job" Manhood is what counts In this
neck of the woods, not titles.
Brown Made Confession
What have you 10 say to this In view
Of the fact that Judge Brown has con-
fessed that he did use these terms 1t is
hardly possible that YOU Will attempt to
justify by claiming a different code OF
morals for indianapolis and Salt Lake
Such a claim is without basis.
