To the Editor
The shocking proceedings which took
place IN the juvenile court last Thurs
day, In which girl q mere child, was
subjected To treatment So outrageous as
to seem impossible even In bandit
camp, to say nothing of court OF law,
continue to be a topic of indignant
discussion among residents Of this city.
especially parents of half grown chill
dren who are liable to drift. intentions

questionable environments.
Probation officer Clark, who enacted
prominent role IN the shameful affair,
seems to have had a sense OF decency
which, though latent at the time, Prov
ed strong enough 10 lmpel him to re-
sign when at,last il was awakened by
the public denunciation his conduct
aroused.
Judge Brown should follow his exam
pie. Instead OF contentlng himself
with confessng through the city press,
that he made mistake" he should
resign. His conduct IN the affair In
question has incurred the detestation
and adherence or the public of this
city, confidence In both his judgment
and integrity has been destroyed, and
his usefulness In the Office he occupies
has been fatally impaired. He should
resign forthwith.
There Is no way TO measure the harm
that has been done among the boys and
girls OF this city, who are near tho
age of the victim of Thursday, by the
proceedings that are here denounced,
and the publicity that has been given
to them; but any intelligent parent OF
half-grown children Wall admit
that Il must be very great.
Especially Is this true of the
class Of boys and girls who have
been or are likely to be brought before
the juvenile court Among that class
Judge Browns future usefulness Is
most doubtful He ought 10 resign at
once.

Of law bad judgment and misguided
zeal have often aroused iuss public
censure. and this latest abuse and lilo
