AN IGNORAMUS REMARKS

cat may contemplate King,
Il why may not a layman-a bare
layman with no pretensions TO
legal learning, and with little or no ex-
perence in the practices OF Courts
why may not so humble a citizen, and
SO unsqphisticated an observer OF men
and things, be permitted to make a
gentle criticism on the machinery of the
law: 10 be sure, such criticism will
be set down to the pure ignorance of
the critic, and those who are far older
and wiser will suggest that we air our
callow opinions in regions where they
will be more profitable. But with an
impudence that may appear little short
OF toolhardy, we are going to rise to
the remark that the waste of time and
money that seems to unnecessarily
characterize the proceedings of our
Courts is hardly less than heart break
ing to the average taxpayer, who is
unable to comprehend the slow and
ponderouS processes OF our legal pro-
ceedings, but who does have more or
less uncomfortable suspicion of where
the payment for it all comes from.
am not now inveighing against the
laws delays" when they are neces-
sary and legitimate; am not pleading
for any undignifed or undue haste in
the conduct of legal business. But, as
pure layman, with some measure of
experience in the propriety of apply
ing business methods to business mat
tiers, am going to say frankly and ear
nestly that there does seem to be a
great deal of wasted time, and ergo,
wasted money, in the failure of cases
to be tried with that preparation and
promptness which one expects to find
in the conduct of his personal business
and which he has therefore right to
expect 10 find in the conduct OF the pub
lies business. Where the trouble is,
or indeed just WHAT the trouble is,
am not initiated enough to know; but

A FORCED ISSUE

w HEN EN- a party gets hard up i"r
ticc in this country to raise
the cry Turn the rascals out the
''rascals' in that sense being the party
in power at the moment. \ recent
pronunciamento from the Chairman OF
the Democratic Congressional Com
mittec would indicate that the Demo
cratic party in this campaign is reduced
to this last political cxpcdicncy Chair
man Griggs said that ii the Democrats
were given control OF the House in the
SiNtieth Congress they would begin in
vcstigationS which would demonstrate
the existence OF rottcnncSS in the eX-
ecutive departments oi the Govern
mcnt. which he intimatcd was being
concealed by the Republicans.
Well, lets expose that statement to
the cold light OF fact We remember
that when the Democrats were appeal
ing Tor power. i'll 1884, and again in
1902, they raised that same cry. The
voters put the Democrats in full pos
session OF the Government and they
failed to find any raScalS. Not scan
dial was unearthed-not an official dis
graccd
Now, the Republicans do not claim
to be more honest than other men Of
opposing political faith. There is the
same proportion OF dishonesty in hui
man nature regardless OF party. But
the Republicans have shown that they
do not have to wait ior hostile adj
minlStration to take control OF one
branch OF the Government to find the
raScaIS in their midst They don't burn
down the barn to get at the rats. and
1t is not necessary for the country to
destroy political cdifice in order to
reach undesirable inhabitants OF it.
Some rascals were discovered in the
Government service by the present Ad-
mlniStration. They were found out and
exposed, and the country has approved
the successful efforts OF the law branch
OF the Government to root out the OF
tenders and put them in Jail and to stop
the otfenses. II Chairman Griggs can
not present any more virilc issue to the
voters than the one who now clamors
Tor, he will have to look again.

MR.. YIN, II. JACKSON


Y n another page OF this issue Will
" be found an interesting sketch
OF Mr.. William H. Jackson, the
Republican nominee for Congress from
this District The article is from the
pen of one who has known Mr.. Jack
son intimately for years, and known
him with increasing admiration for his
mental strength and kindly generous
character We invite our readers to a
careful reading OF this sketch. 1t is the
best reply, and an entirely sufficient
one. to those campaign critics who can
find no other issue" in this contest
than frenzicd cutlery against Mr..
Jackson's wealth 1t is wealth that
has been honestly won, and wisely and
generously expended. 1t is wealth
which has enabled MIR. Jackson to be a
blessing to a large community and a
generous friend to many suffering,
needy brother. \ demagogic cutlery
against Mr.. JackSon's wealth may
count ior little something up at this
end OF the District; but in his home
community, amongst the people who
know him best, it is not even heard.
There Democrats and Republicans alike
testify to Mr.. JackSons prc-emnent
value as citizen and neighbor.
When prophet is honorcd in his own
country, there is apt to be something
in him worth honOring.
