A MARRIED SILENCE

1t is rather a significant fact that so little
attention has been paid by the daily papers
OF Chicago to the outrages which have been
perpetrated in Joliet, Rock Island and other
Illinois towns during the past few days.
Buildings have been set on fire; in one
case large three-story building was prac-
tically destroyed, together with an expensive
printing outfit, by the explosion of a bomb;
and, curiously enough, in each case the
owner of the property imperiled or de-
stroyed has been someone who has been act
i've in the local option campaign against the
saloon. 1t will probably be very difficult to
prove that these outrages were the work of
anyone representing the liquor interests, but
every person gifted with reasonable intel
hgence" at once more than suspects that
they were, and the silence of the daily papers
confirms the suspicion.
Some Of us have not forgotten that when
the homes of three prominent citizens were
destroyed with dynamite almost stimuli
taneously, in an Iowa town, some years ago,
by the minions of the liquor traffic, not
only the daily papers but even the religious
papers of the churches to which the in ured
citizens belonged, rigidly observed silence.

IN RE CONTEMPT OF COURT

The National Prohibitionist respectfully
presents its congratulations and Fluctuations
to Judge CHAs M. WALKER of this CITY.
That eminent jurist has most fortunately,
though most narrowly, escaped placing him
self in the sorry position which was occu-
pied by the Indiana justice Of the peace who
uttered the famous sentence, "I'll have you
to understand that [ am an object of con-
tempt always and everywhere"
Judge WALKER had before him an appeal
from the action Of the election commission
ers of this city in their refusal to order the
United Societies anti-Sunday- closing prop
osition to be placed upon the ballot With
that somewhat remarkable judicial percep-
ton which is exhibited by so many of our
judges, who, whenever a question involving
the liquor traffic is before them, can discover
legal points that are at other times wholly
invisible the judge decided that the CUES
ton, though, in all common sense, it practi-
cally involves voting upon obedience or dis
obedience to law of the state, must go upon
the ballot
The Rev. A. LINCOLN SHUTE, one of the
most prominent Methodist pastors of the
city. criticized this decision with much force
and perhaps some severity. Thereupon the
eminent jurist commanded the daring clergy
man to appear before him to answer for con-
tempt of court.
The proposition was somewhat startling.
The general public supposed that the case in
question had wholly passed beyond the con-
sideration of Judge WALKER, and, whatever

Consider one more phase of the matter:
On the brink of threatened social revolution
a people need, as never before and at no other
thine, wise and honest government. Have we
such? The question provokes the sarcastic
smile. The grating police captain who fat
tens upon the vice and misfortune of his
little satrapy, the vce-made thef-made
mayor who rules the city at the behest of his
owners, the cowardly gangs who cringe under
the party lash in our state and national legis-
lative halls, the time-serving executives whose
energies are devoted chiefly to the securing of
their own reelection or the choice of parti-
Fan successor-a these give us government
that moves toward chaos And for all these
let us give thanks first and chiefly to the gin
mill and the gin miller in our politics.
1t is not our intent to write in the tone Of
undue alarm. We have faith still in the ulti-
mate virtue and good sense of the American
people. We believe in progress. We have
sure hope in tomorrow. But the spectacle
that we present today in the hour when most
we need all the untrammeled powers of vir-
tue and wisdom, clasping close the poisoned
and poisoning creature Of hell that saps our
strength and numbs our powers of mind and
soul-what can be said of it?

THE NATIONAL PRoHIB1TIoNIsT

in Washington, holding down with strong
hand every reform measure, no matter how
obviously just or how widely demanded, paint
the Republican party in the truest colors in
which it has revealed itself in years.
Already we seem to hear the tramping of
great host of clean citizens who will find
themselves obliged to move. Such events as
these emphasize the duty that we have al
ready pointed out: We Prohibitionists must
have our party camp ready to welcome ''the
coming millions"

may be the facts of law and practice regard
ing criticism of a judge while a question is
still before him, 1t is certainly a remarkable
innovation upon American customs if a citi-
zen can be punished for expressing an opin-
ion after case has passed from the iuris-
diction of the court. Technically, Judge
WALKER held jurisdiction and claimed au-
thority to act against the clergyman for con-
tempt, because of the fact that an argument
for some additional proceedings was still
to be made before him indeed according to
published reports, he postponed hearing that
argument so that he might not lose jurisdic-
ton in the contempt case.
In answer to the summons, the clergyman
appeared in court, and, to the surprise of
everyone, the courtroom was packed with
some Of the most prominent people of tho
city, together with the pastors of churches
of all denominations, including Catholics.
Then arrived-a little tardy but in time
to be of service-Judge WALKERS intelli-
gence and good sense. He recognized-if
we may be allowed to quote from the street
that he had ''put his foot in it." and he ac-
copied the stra CHIT -forward statement of the
preacher who retracted no word of his utter
ance and merely explained that he did not
know that the case was still before the court,
as an "apology'' and gracefully "backed
down."
No citizen should lightly criticize judge
of any of our courts, but the right to speak
a free mans thought Of the acts Of public
servants must not and shall not be sacrificed
to technicalities. And a Judge who wants
to protect his court from Contempt will do
we'll to remember that saloon case in which
he has outraged the moral sentiment of the
community is a bad place to begin.

REPUBLICAN SELF EVELATION

One day last week, the organization that
likes to call itself ''the party of LINCOLN"
the party Of great moral ideas,' and the
like, in state convention assembled at Spring
field, ILL.,, surrendered to the demands of
the berry anarchists of Chicago and inserted
personal liberty plank in its platform.
There will doubtless be an attempt to ex-
plain the utterance and to read into it some
meaning that shall not place the Republican
party in position Of open and avowed hos
tility to the temperance and moral element
of the citizenship of the state. Certainly the
''down-state' leaders, who can not be quite
as foolishly blind to questions of morals as
the debauched gangsters who control the
party in this city, must have expected to
make use of some such Interpretation. They
must know that the Republican party cannot
carry the state of Illinois without the votes
of thousands of citizens who call themselves
Temperance men,"
But can the personal liberty plank be
so explained? In our judgment-no. It ac-
cepts the shibboleth and watchword of the
liquor traffic's organized propaganda. It
pledges the Republican party to personal
liberty legislation. If it means anything, it
means, and was intended to mean, the pledge
of the party to do those things that the liquor
interests demand; among which are the re-
peal of the local Prohibition law and of the
Sunday closing statute.
The manhood of Illinois Christian and
moral citizenship ought to revolt-must re-
volt at this This action will prove the great
light that will show many an honest man in
what political company he is training. This
and the attitude Of the Republican machine
