Opinion
Free Speech in Detroit.

Free speech IN Detroit.
New York Press.
The latest American city to show a mis-
understanding OF the principle of freedom
and the proper function Of government is
Detroit. The Commissioner of Police of
that city has declared that Emma Gold
man cannot deliver lectures there which
were TO be given next Sunday. She is to be
barred because of her record"
If this woman has been guilty OF un-
expiated crime she ought to be tried
and imprisoned. As long as she is at
liberty she has the same rights as any
one else. and cannot legally, nor Justly,
nor wisely be interfered with by the police
until she breaks the laws. The speeches
that she makes have all been published,
and she has not been prosecuted for them.
Tor the second time in eighteen years she
was held FOR trial last year, charged with
denouncing the Government as unneces-
sary. but the court decided it was not a
crime 10 preach anarchism, and she was
discharged.
The same lectures she intends to give
in Detroit she has given in many other
cities without interference and without
disturbance. In fact, it is maintained that
no riots have ever followed an address
by her. Certainly such has not been
shown to be the natural result Of her
speeches.
Almost nobody agrees with Emma Gold
mans ideas. They arc the result Of a re-
ligious, almost fanatical idealism, and
could not be held by any one who had
ever had a personal hand in the govern
ment of his country. But her ideas are
sincere, she does not advocate assassina-
ton, and to suppress the expression Of her
opinions until there is proof that she has
infringed upon some law is tyrannical
and uncivilized. The police authorities in
Detroit. just as the police authorities In
indianapolis did year ago, interfere with
the lifes activities, liberties and express
sion Of opinion Of Emma Goldman. And
that too, when no local labor excitement
gives it even the shadow Of the plea Of
necessity as illegal, unconstitutional and
unwise. This involves much more than the
personal interests of this woman; for if
the police can act without legal sanction
in determining what opinions are likely
10 be Injurious, who of us may not In the
end, be affected2 And are the police bet
ter judges OF what we ought to listen TO
than we are? Even If they were we should
hesitate long time before we would feel
it safe to put paternal powers into their
hands.
We, as a community, have decided, and
that decision is expressed by our laws,
that no one should be adjudged guilty un-
I'll he is so proved, that to all should be
accorded. the liberty of thought and of the
expression Of opinion, within tho law.
Why. then, should we allow certain Of
flcials, who are empowered to act only
under the Constitution, gradually to seize
powers opposed to the spirit Of the consti-
tuition. TO the spirit of the Constitution,
10 the spirit OF civilization and not only
made necessary by practical considera-
tions, but calculated I'm themselves to in
fame the passions and keep alive the very
opinions" which they seek TO throttle ?

BALLINGER INQUIRY.

nESPITE the opinion of Attorney-General
- Wckersham who went out OF his way to
make personal fling at L. r. CLAWS, special
agent who made charges against Secretary Bal
linger in connection with the Cunningham coal
land claim in Alaska, the demand is persistent
for thorough investigation by Congress TO
learn whether the cause of conservation of our
natural resources has been upheld to the utmost
by the Interior Department and the Forestry
Service.
Have the predatory interests that arc trying to
loot the public domain in the West and in Alas
ka, the interests that are seeking to secure con-
troll of the great coal fields and valuable water
power sites been encouraged by public officials? ?
That is the question which causes the contro-
versy to rise above mere personalities.
The Attorney General has given his opinion
that the interests of the nation have been pro-
tected, and his decision will, of course, have much
weight but a Congressional investigation, no
matter how long it may drag out is the only
proper solution of the trouble, and Mr.. Ballinger
has acted with wisdom in demanding such an
investigation.

A WORD ABOUT CAPTAIN RAND.

II HE proposed departure of Captain Rand,
4 who will be transferred by the government
to Washington, is viewed by THE JOURNAL
not without considerable regret. Captain Rand
has been a courteous gentleman in his dealings
with us, and we are sure that he will carry with
him the best wishes Of the newspaper men for
his future success and welfare. 1t was happy
change for THE JOURNAL, from Major Flag
Ter and his queer ideas to Captain Rand.
It is unfortunate thing that Captain
Rand and some influential men who are concern
cd in the city's welfare, did not "hit it." if we
may use the expression, as to certain policies.
The friends of Major Flagler, according to all
reports, proceeded to "make it hot" for Captain
Rand before he had fairly assumed his
duties but whether Captain Rand or they were
in the right a situation developed that made it
unpleasant all around.
Captain Rand will not have the most pleasant
recollectons of these persons all of whose letters
of complaint sent TO Washington were forwarded
from that city to Captain Rand for his perusal
II may be said however, that their letters arc
not the cause of the transfer of Captain Rand
We mention the activity of those friends of Ma
jor Flagler to show that Captain Rand was made
the victim of a series of circumstances for which
he was not to blame. Had the glad hand" been
extended to Captain Rand, as it should have been,
we do not think there would have been so much
friction
At any rate Captain Rand when he departs,
will carry with him the best wishes of THE
JOURNAL.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There Is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of tho
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh. which IS nothing
but an infiamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces.

CHANGERS AND LOCAL
OPTION QUESTION

At the meeting OF the State Grange in
Dover. on December 16 the following
resolution. offered by Thomas T. Weldin,
OF Brandywine hundrd was adoptd:
'Whereas, For two years the manu-
facture and sale Of Intoxicating liquors
has been prohibited by law in Kent and
Sussex counties, thus affording ample OPP
portunity for careful observation Of con-
ditions under such prohibition, and
Whereas, The majority of our fellow
citizens in these counties. who by their
votes put such prohibition into effect, are
highly satisfied with the results Of no
license, whereby law and order and the
consequent public safety and happl-
ness have been preserved and enjoyed
as never before, therefore
resolved, That we frown upon all pres
ent day agitation for a resubmission OF
the question of license or no-license TO
the voters Of these counties as a move
ment which in no sense expresses the de-
sire Of our best citizens, and further
"Resolved. That We reafiirm resolu-
tions passed at our last session. calling
upon the Delaware General Assembly to
enact such laws as will prevent the ship
ment Of intoxicating liquors from any
wet territory in the State into these
dry counties, and make It unlawful like
wise for any newspaper published in any
dry territory to publish any advertise
ment OF any such liquors for SALE there
by aiding to prevent the illegal sale OF
such liquors in said counties, and furth-
er
"Resolved, That we call on all good
citizens Of Rural New Castle county tc
cast ballot against the saloon on next
election day. November s, 1910. to the
end that uniform no-license conditions
may obtain throughout our entire rura

Among the Syrians there is no such
thing as giving a party in celebration
of the first anniversary of the birth Of
a child. The celebration is held when
the baby cuts its first tooth. On such
an occasion friends of the parents are
not invited to the house to eat cakes
and listen to photograph. but what
ever sweets may be prepared for the
occasion are sent by the parents to the
homes of the friends whom they wish
to inform of the news. The friends
later visit the parents and tender their
congratulations. The dishes In which
the sanainieh is carried to neighbors

Miuht Change His Mind.

Sir Frank Lock wood was defending
a man accused of swindling and in an
eloquent peroration talked of his much
injured client as an angel of light.
When Sir Frank had finished his
speech his client whispered that he
wanted to shake hands with him.
"When first my solicitor told me what
he was paying you" said the client,
81 grumbled, but since | have been lis
tening to you ! have come to the con-
victim that the money was well spent,
and / apologize. That half hour talk
of yours about me has done me good.
1t is many years since | have expert
enced the luxury of self respect, and 1t
is worth the money"
"Oh, that's all right" said Sir Frank
genially, but you take my advice and
go out of court. Sir Edward Clarke,
the lawyer on the other side, is just
going to speak"
