STAFFORD FOR FAIR PLAY


To The Free Lance:
Mr.. James Rogers. of King
George county, hits the nail squarely
on the head when he says in effect
that King George county is fairly
and Justly entitled 10 name the
Democratic nominee who shall be
the candidate of that party for the
House OF Delegates, for according
TO every consideration of fair play
the square deal. justice and honor,
since Stafford has had the represen-
tative for several terms. King
George county should have it at
least for the ensuing term, and es-
pecially is such the case IL we are TO
continue as a representative govern
ment.
King George county and Stafford
county comprise one legislative dis
ric,: il would therefore, seem
carrying out the principles and prac-
tees OF honest dealing and fair
representation TO arrange a rota-
ton that will so ale King George
county 70 the right 10 name
the representative in the House Of
Delegates every now and then. and
now that Stafford has had this po-
sition for several terms il seems
that King George has been rotated
back TO right TO say who this
r preventative shall be. And as MIR
Rogers says. il would be most cred
table In the Democrats OF Stafford
20 vote for whOmsoever King George
preferred for nominee. King George
con Il have a primary of its own
and Cecide which of the candidates
OF chat county shall be the Democrat
ic standard bearer. and then in the
gen raj primary the Democrats OF
Stafford could do the honorable ana
manly thing OF making the nomina-
ton unanimous.
But will the professional po!iti-
clans allow honesty 70 prevail as
The best policy? Hardly. II IS
anything to defeat one who does not
wear the yoke and speak the Ian
guage OF the tribe
When a machine candidate is In
office where there are twO counties
comprising the district. as in the
case Of King George and Stafford.
the politicians invoke the argument
that such rotation rotatos good
representatives out OF office.
When the people as against the
machine has the representative the
politicians invoke the argument that
man fresh from the people is
more closely identified with the in
terests and needs of the people and
so will be more responsive to their
wishes So we will see what inscni-
Gus argument will now be rung in.

KIDNAPPING CHARGE
Is More Serious Than First
Thought.
JUDGE IS ALSO INVOLVED
Prosecutor Ready to Proceed Against
Those Charged With Spiriting
Alleged Dynamiter Out Of
Indiana.

indianapolis. Ind. April %. - The
charge of kidnapping lodged against
Detective William j. Burns, Assistant
District Attorney Ford, OF Los Ange'
les, Ca, and others for the removal oil
John J. Mcnamara from this state to
answer for the blowing up Of the Los
Angeles Times building, is assuming
a more seEious aspect than was the
case at first.
When the labor leaders made the
charge and had the warrants sworn
out 1t was thought to be merely
move to hamper the work Of the de
tectiyes.
Now, however, Prosecutor Baker.
while denying that he has any inter
est in the matter as far as the unions
are concerned. says that as public
officer he believes that the charge Is
we'll based and that not only Burns
and Ford are liable under the kidnap-
ping statute to fine and Imprisonment,
but also that Judge Collins, OF the po-
lice court, who turned Mcnamara over
to Burns after Identification, Is In
volyed in the case.
The prosecutor has made a careful
investigation Of the law regarding the
extraditlon Of criminals, and as re-
suit he says he Is convinced that Nc
Namara ought to have been tried in
Indianapolis He adds that when Nc
Namara was taken before Judge Col
Inns for a hearing on the question OF
his Identity the prosecuting attorney S
Office should have been notified before
the case went any further.
Other lawyers also hold that Judge
Collins was without jurisdiction in
the case and quote section 1893, which
SAYS that the sheriff or constable max
ing the arrest shall take the fugitive
before the circuit, superior or criminal
court or judge Of the state nearest
and most convenient of access to the
place where the arrest is made. The
section says nothing about taking the
fugitive before a city Judge.
II is understood that in defending
himself from the kidnapping charge
Detective Burns will hold that he did
not know that Judge Collins had no
Jurisdiction to hear the extradition
proceedings, and that when the judge
ordered Mcnamara turned over to the
California officer he believed that the
action was strictly in accordance with
law. The defense of the other defend
ants will follow this same line, II Is
said.
But In the meantime the opinion
seems to be unanimous that McNa-
mart cannot return to Indiana to
figure in the case against his alleged
kidnappers. He is now under the
Jurisdiction OF the courts OF California
and must face the charges against him
there before be can return.
Two firms OF lawyers were consulted
with reference to the Mcnamara case,
and both advised the labor men that
there was no way In which the sec
rotary treasurer could be gotten out OF
the California Jurisdiction
