JUDGE M'CARTY IN
 JUVENILE COURT Replies to Argument of Col.
 Sam Will John MUST PROVE DELINQUENCY Judge Coleman Rejects $20oo Bond Offered By Father of Ira Perry man and Boy Is Returned
 to Jail.
MUST PROVE DELINQUENCY

Anniston, September 19.-(Special.)- Referring to Col sam Will Johns crit ieism of Judge T. w. Coleman's opin- ion in declaring the juvenile court law unconstitutional Judge Henry D. Me carty said today: With all due re- spect to Colonel John, the right of the state to act in Parens patriae has some limitations upon it. The natural rights of parents may be dsregarded and chancery or juvenile courts may as- sume control and custody of children only in certain contingencies. So far as the act purports to offer succor and moral surroundings to children of vicious and unnatural parents or to children whose environments are bad or to those whose tendencies are crim- inal, the act is q good one. But the act exceeds this humanitarian pur- pose.
 It has made the juvenile court a refuge for criminals by adopting an arbitrary age limit for crime. and pro- hibiting the Imprisonment under war rant or indictment of q child under Il years of age no matter how grave the crime or how capable the child may be of committing it. The wisdom of such action by the legislature Is ex- ceedingly doubtful and is bound 10 result in an increase in crime among both whites and blacks if the law be constitutional.
 Colonel John dwells only on the yirtaes, not the defects of the act By it's terms any child under 14 years of age who violates any law of the state shall be deemed a juvenile de- linquent person. The delinquency of the child is essential to the acquiring of jurisdiction by the juvenile court.
 Where the sole act of delinquency consists in the violation of some law of Alabama it is plain that the court in determining child dellquent must nee essarily determine him to be guilty. The court is bound to decide that the child has committed some crime, mur- der, arson, highway robbery or the like before 1t can conclude that he is d delinquent and sub ject to the con trol of the court. This is clearly q deprivation of the right of jury trial as guaranteed by the constitution.
 Suppose the child pleaded not guilty of the crime, murder for instance, or should plead lf-defense and should demand that his guilt or innocence be passed upon by jury before the court remands him to reformatory and de- prives him of his liberty for stated term.

Beat Wife and Others.

John Harris of midnight complexion. was brought before Recorder Greene in police court this morning to tell why he had been disorderly on two re- cent occasions. John said he was guilty as "skused," and had no word to say. A little inquiry among the witnesses present to testify as to Johns mean ness disclosed the fact that he had abused his wife to such an extent that she had to leave home for her own safety. He followed her up to neigh bor's house yesterday and renewed the trouble with her and also attacked every one who had befriended her by giving her shelter. After hearing these facts the court imposed two fines that az eregate S51.
