PUBLIC DEFENDER
NEW STATE OFFICE
WHOSE DUTY IT is TO SEE
THAT JUSTICE is DONE, TO
RIGHT WRONGS.

They have created the office of
Public Defender in Oklahoma. In
one paragraph of the enactment by
which the office has been created
we read the following: at shall be
the duty of the Public Defender to
right wrongs, to protect the help
less, to prosecute in the courts those
who try to take advantage of the
weak and the ignorant; in short to
see that justice is done and done
with little financial cost.
AS matter of terminoloSy this
may be considered as loose lawmak-
ing, but they have a way of inter-
preting law in that new state,
where the square cut man views ev-
erythng with suspicion from the
state constitution to the town ordi-
nance. that somehow brings out the
common interest and makes 1t ef-
fective. SO of this new office, We
are bound to regard the principle
Of il rather than the probability OF
its working out smoothly. It's salts
factory working will depend upon
the temrer of the Oklahoma COM
munities, and if that temper is for
the performance of Justice the office
will be of avail along the lines in
dicated
This Oklahoma innovation is sim
ply the legalzing of that movement
which has obtained in some of the
larger cities whereby there has been
organization to secure, through VOL
untary service of attorneys, the
conduct of cases wherein the weak
and the ignorant need counsel and
defense. In those larger cities this
movement has been conducted as a
philanthropy. In Oklahoma, as it
seems, il has been crystallized into
an institution of regal right.
The experiment will undoubtedly
meet with powerful opposition and
not altogether on the part of men
who expect to profit by injustice
toward those who are not in a po-
sition to help themselves. The man
who believes religiously in the doc
| trire of the survival of the fittest
will float the idea; will deny that
the state has a right to saddle him
with any part of the weaker broth
er's burden. But the principle of it
is of the higher standard that we
! should seek continuously to cult

AGAINST "SHOE TRUST"
House Judiciary Committee Rules t.
Discuss Legislation.

The judiciary committee of the House
will proceed with discussion Of more
antitrust legislation regardless OF pend
ing prosecutions under the Sherman law.
This was reiterated today by Chairman
Clayton when he declined to stop the
argument Of Charles III. Jones Of the Com
monwealth Shoe and Leather Company
of Boston at the request of former Rep
resentative Ltttlefield, who protested
against M. Jones' arguments in the
name Of the United Shoe Machinery
Company, against which an antitrust
suit has been filed by the Department of
Justice.
To-day three companies control the
shoe business Of the United States,
said Mr. Jones. He was telling the
committee how patent rights and leases
maintained the "shoe trust" and sup
porting the favorable report of the Len
the Sherman law and the Thayer patent
bill when Mr.. IAttlefeld objected.
"Mr. Jones has the right of every
American citizen to be heard" said Chair.
man Clayton. Mr.. Jones resumed his
story of the gradual acquisition Of the
shoe manufacturing trade by the big
Massachusetts, corporation. He explained
how the company used its patent rights
and its system Of leasing shoe-making
machinery on a basis of a royalty for
every pair of shoes manufactured.
Mr. Jones will continue his testimony
and Mr.. Brandeis will conclude his ar
gument today.

PROHIBITS DISCRIMINATION
IN SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE
Important Amendment to. Public
Health Bill Made by
the Senate.

That the Senate committee on public
health is favorably inclined to the Owen
bill for the establishment of a department
of public health was indicated this morn
ing. when the committee took up the de-
tails of the bill and framed several
amendments. After these have been in
corporated and the changes made to
carry out their provisions throughout the
measure the committee will hold another
meeting. 1t is predicted that the bill will
be reported favorably after that.
The Owen bill proposes the establish
ment of a department Of public health,
with cabinet officer at its head, but the
committee decided this morning to amend
it so that it would establish only bu-
reau of public health.
Another important amendment adopted
was that of SeQator Owen, proposed to
meet objections the bill was in
tended to boost one school of medicine
against another. The amendment, as
accepted by the committee, provides
that the bureau Of health established
by this act shall have no power to
regulate the practice of medicine or the
practice of healing or to interfere with
the right Of q citizen to employ the
practitioner Of his choice within any
state Of the Union, and all appointments
within the bureau, including the head
of the bureau, shall be made without
discrimination against any school or
medicine or of healing.

Charles e. Merriam of Chicago, former

Of Chicago, was made temporary chair
man of the conference of progressive re-

He said:
1.-THE progressive republicans Of IL
linois are surrounded by foes of various
descriptions. The so-called Lincoln Pro-
tective League is organized for the ale
legged purpose of protecting represent
alive government. The effrontery OF
their leaders, whose real purpose is the
defense of Lorimer. Is astounding.
I'VE also have the Deneen Protective
League Yesterday we find the gov
ernor pickering with Busse and few
months ago with Lorimer and little
later on the porch OF James Pease with
Roger Sullivan.
I'VE stand for the direct election of

referendum and recall. and we find the
political bosses and the money interests
Of this state formidably arrayed against
these reforms"

Making Land.

From the Boston Globe.
The national government is now turn-
ing from the profitable irrigation Of wild
lands in the far west to the drainage Of
large areas Of unproductive lands in. the
south.
Our population has been increasing at
the rate OF q million and a half annually.
and the production of our essential food
supply has not been keeping proper pace
with it. There has followed q painful adj
vance in the cost OF food supplies. For
generations the people have reveled in
the wealth Of our natural resources. We
have now reached the natural limit and
the government must develop more land
In the south.
Up to this time the public domain has
been SO extensive that virgin lands could
be had for the asking. There are but few
farms now to give away. Already co.,
100000 acres west OF the ninety-fifth me-
ridian have been taken up by settlers
and are largely food producing. There re-
main only 100000 acres. and q large
part of this is wild mountain land.
There are In the south idle lands a.
rich as the delta lands OF the Nile. They
require development by drainage. The
government cannot begin this profitable
work too soon.
