BRITAIN's INHUMAN JUSTICE.
Case I'm Point Recalls Hero Of HUI
Eo's "Ies MiserabIes."


Prom the Kansas City Star
Every now and again the British pub

ject OF the administration OF the poor
mans courts" by some particularly IA
grant example OF the stupidity of the
unpaid justices or the peace who adj
minister the law all over England, eX-
cept in the largest towns. Just now
the public is going through one OF its
periodical paroxysms on account of the
case OF Charles Bullock and the Hay
wards heath justices.
Charles Bullock is thirteen years
old He has an excellent character and
is at the top OF his class in school
His father is a steady respectable man
employed by the village blacksmith at
Haywards Heath, a village near Lon
don. a few weeks ago Mrs. Bullock
told Charlie one evening that he would
have to fetch some coal the next morn

for school he stole a lump OF coal val

neighboring contractor. policeman

justices sentenced him TO be birched.
and then TO be sent for six years 10
an industrial school. which is nothing
but a prison for boys.
The ferocity of the sentence attract
ed so much attention that IT was dis
cussed in Parliament and the home
secretary was forced to quash the sen
tence and return the boy to his pa
rents
But nothing has been done by the
authorities in any way to indicate that
they believe the Hayward's Heath
justices are not ideal persons TO sit
IN judgment on their fellows, and It
is not likely that anything viii be
done. After a while the public will go
to sleep again and viii slumber on
until some other scandal awakes it for
a few days.

President Taft. according TO Wylie @.
Wetherill. OF Philadelphia, an iron manu-
facturer, who was seen at the Shoreham
last night. has closed the first year Of
his administration with much actual
good work TO his credit
1T seemed at first" said Mr. Weth-
erill," as If Mr. Taft were not doing any
thing at all. The people lost their
patience with him and accused him of
being without backbone. without moral
courage TO do things as he saw them. In
fact. many of the Western States en-
tertained feelings decidedly ininical to
President Taft for various and sundry
reasons. They blamed him for his ap-
parent inactivity and spinelessness and
other equally undesirable qualities"
President Taft is man of decided
courage. but he does not eternally talk
about 1t. The results Of the labors OF
Congress are the best proof Of this. He
works silently. and surely. He does not
make such a big noise while he is bring
ing about legislation. President Taft has
gained IN popularity during the last four
weeks in an amazing degree, and before
he returns to the White House again
