it Is put into use by the justices of some

This abuse of the garnishment law
has grown to be a source OF annoy
ance 10 the laboring class and has the
effect of demoralzing labor in most OF
the industrial Institutions of our city.
Both employer and employee are con-
stantly harassed by the evil practices
referred TO. We can not condemn too
severely this misuse of the garnishment
law. and if there is no existing remedy
to affect the present evils by prosecu-
lions of parties and court officers. We
suggest that there should be some leg
isation 80 to amend the garnishment
laws as to provide d penalty both for
parties to a suit and officers of court
who hus abuse the power given under
existing laws for the collection Of
