more TO do with the question than it
has to do with the Sunday opening Of
Councilman Mulvey's saloon, or the
$4,000 plaster conduit gift to Pat No

point on which there can be no dis

they had a big surplus at their COM
mand. They have known the condition
of their treasury, and they are prepar-

If 'Americsns' like that, the tax

JUDGMENT RENDERED.

So far as the judgment of the public
is concerned the Roosevelt-TilIman-
Bailey incident is closed. RooseveIt's
last effort to discredit the men with
whom he broke faith after soliciting
their aid, was Enthusiastically indi-
rect. He, or some one for him. pro-
cured publication in the Chicago Tri-
bune and New York Tribune Of a story
TO the effect that Bailey distrusted Till
man and that Bailey. not the president.
was responsible for the failure to pro-
coed on the lines Of the alliance sought
by Roosevelt.
Senator BaiIey's bitter denunciation
OF the story and its authors was a suf-
fcient answer. He said the tale was
a deliberate, unqualified, malicious lie,
and the description fitted exactly the
circumstances under which the report
was circulated. None would believe it
for a moment who knew the relations
between Bailey and Tillman, and it
needed no disclaimer from either of
those senators. It has served. however.

House and to add the final touch to an
almost incredible record of bad faith,
mendacity and unblushing treachery in

Republican senate will proceed to
frame the rate bill to suit Senator Al

ADJUSTMENTS TODAY.
VNpIcATIoN FOR BROWN.

The juvenile court commission has
completely exonerated Judge Brown
from all the charges against him and
the judge will doubtless continue to
hold his position for an indefinite time.
regardless Of the cIamor that was
raised against him. The action of the
commission viii be displeasing to GER
tain Of our contemporaries and to some
people who have formed an opinion of
Judge Brown from the matter they
have read about him in these contem-
poraries. The Herald holds no brief for
the defense Of Judge Brown, but It be-
heves he has been shamefully maiigned.
That his course could not have been
regarded by the court commission as
very erroneous is evidenced by the COM
missions report. At least two mem
bers Of that body, Mayor Thompson and
Chief Of Police Sheets, would prob
ably not object to seeing Judge Brown
supplanted by a good American That
they Joined with City School Superfn-
tendent Christensen in generating him
is the strongest sort of testimony to
Judge Browns worth.
It may be freely admitted that Judge
Brown made mistakes in the Knox
case; it may be that his language and
his actions were unnecessarily rough
But man who has done as much
good for the youth Of this community,
boys and girls, as has Judge Brown
should not in all fairness. be hastily
condemned. For one error he should
not be pilIoried. If the advice of some
Of our contemporaries had been fol-
lowed, if Judge Brown had been sum
mariIy ousted by Impeachment or other
proceedings, the loss would not have
been mis-.
The little salary, $1,000 a year, does
not mean everything TO him. He is in
the work because he believes that in
it he can accomplish the greatest
amount Of good. And the good ne has
done so far outweighs anything bad
that the bad may be said to be a neg
ligible quantity. The Herald congrat-
ulates the court commission upon its
decision and expresses the hope that
Judge Brown will remain where he is
for & long time to come.

SINCLAIR TO ARMOUR.

Upton Sinclair. writer Of THE Jun
gle" a story in which is made the most
vicious attack on the meat trust that
has yet been published, has challenged
J. ogden Armour, the reputed head of
the trust, 10 proceed against him for
criminal libel. If Mr.. Sinclair did not
tell the truth in his book he is guilty
Of the grossest kind Of criminal libel
if he did tell the truth then conditions
at some of the packing houses under
Mr.. ArmouF's control are in sore need
of revision.
Sinclair charges that the packing
houses are most insanitary, that
spoiled meat is ground into sausages,
that meat that is condemned by the
government is packed in cans or sold
to the poor people Of Chicago. He says
explicitly that Mr. Armour is respOn-
sible for thousands of deaths in the
United States every year. And he po-
litely asks Mr.. Armour to give him an
opportunity to prove the truth Of his as
sertions. Mr. Armour is invited to in
stitute criminal libel proceedings at
once.
One Of the friends Of the meat trust
has said that Mr.. Armour cannot af-
ford to pay any attention to Sinclair
on the ground nat he has not time to
spend on every man who attacks him
and his business. That is true as re-
CARDS some attacks. This, however, is
an onslaught that is calculated to work
a tremendous injury to the packing
house business; it is calculated to cost
the trust hundreds Of thousands Of dol
lars a year in trade. If Mr.. Armour
is not guilty as charged it would seem
that he owes it to himself to prosecute
Sinclair.
The head Of the meat packing indus
try can hardly afford to ignore his ac-
cuser. That is, always provided Sin
clair is not telling the truth. It would
certainly be a great blow to Mr. Ar
mOuT if. in a court proceeding, Mr.. Sin
clair should prove his case.
