NEWSPAPERS AND COURTS.

Every person has the right to publish his understanding of what a court has decided and to differ with the court as to what the law is and also to criticize the law, as long, at least, as the ci- tation does not attempt to i'm pugn the motives of the court or to charge corruption or infamy and thereby attempt to bring our courts into disrepute.'
 So says the commissioner of the Missouri Supreme Court in his findings in the contempt pro- ceedings against Colonel w. R. Nelson, publisher of the Kansas City Star. The case followed a publication in Colonel Nel#on's newspaper regarding the action of Judge Guthrie of Kansas City, who had refused to dismiss a divorce case until the attorneys fees were paid, although the cou- pie involved had asked him to do so. The Star published these facts, and Judge Guthrie, evi- dently under the impression that some peculiar sanctity edges the acts of a court, had Colonel Nel- son cited for contempt. The col onel, who has been fighting the battles of the people of his city and state for a lifetime, appeal ed. and the findings followed.
 Any other finding by the court would have been unjust and un- fair. The right of a newspaper to comments upon the acts of public officials should be unqucstiOned. It is one of the projections fur nishcd the people who do not have time or facilities for investigat- ink the conduct of their public servants. It is not only the right but the duty of the newspaper to present Inc facts clearly. frarlrss- ly and randidly. That is a part of the public service for which the newspaper is paid by public sup port.

BOOSTING FOR RABIES.

Woodlawn, a Chicago suburb, wants
children and lots of them. For that
we may say three cheers and a lot of
babies for Woodlawn. Landlords are
advertising that apartments will not
be rented to parents with less than
Elk children. Lawns are for the ex-
elusive use Of children, and sand piles
will be provided upon front porches
upon request. Merchants are offering
candy and delivery wagon rides as in
ducements. Childrens roller skating
clubs are being encouraged, and chill
dren given permission to own the
town"
The town authorities should go a
little farther-supply baby buggies
free and run a municipal milk plant.
This country has heard much in re-
cent years about infant industries.
Woodlawn evidently believes that
the greatest industry is the infant it.

in that hypothesis.

Carolina was impeached in 1859. He
was removed from office.
Charles Robinson Of Kansas was i'm
peached in 1862. He was acquitted
Harrison Reed of Florida was i'm
peached in 1865. The charges were
dropped
William w Holden of North Caro-.
lima was impeached in 1870. He was
removed.
Powell Clayton of Arkansas was i'm
peached in 1871. The charges were
dropped.
David Butler of Nebraska was i'm
peached in 1871. He was removed.
Henry c. Warmoth Of Louisiana was
impeached in 1872. The charges were
dropped because Of the expiration o.
his term.

PRESIDENT WILSON

in his own party. At the first sign of
irresolution, weakness or failure on his
part, a democratic congressional CO.
terie would probably try to snatch the
leadership from him.
1t is much to the credit of the pres
ident that thus far during the present
session he has shown every moment
that he knows precisely what he wants
done and that he is determined to get
solid results. He marks out a policy,
a program; he stoutly adheres to it.
Threats from the opposition to the ta--
| iff bill in the senate to delay ipdefi-
nitely by stale debate the passage Z.
that measure move him not Snarling
protests against currency legislation at
this session meet with the reply that
| it is the business of the democrats to
control their own congress to the end
that they may pass bills through it.
Having the whip hand the president is
not afraid to make his power felt and
to hold his party followers as strongly
as possible to their tasks.
There can be no sort of doubt that
this kind of leadership in a president
makes an impression upon the people
and is approved by them. Nor is there
the slightest doubt that the way to
success for the democratic party in
governing the country is under a lead.
ership at once competent and trust.
worthy. The situation is such that
nothing short Of leadership both able
and strong will place the democratic
administration, and with it the demo
cratic party, where the majority of the
American people will be compelled tt
say that it has made good. But we
are not to conclude that such leader
ship can be had unless the party in
power accept it. If the leadership Is
to be successful, it must have loya
, and answering support. Whether this
essential condition is to prevail, the
, democratic members of house and sen
: ate must determine; upon them, il
: short, rests the final responsibility fol-
/ the success or failure of a presiden
of the type of Woodrow Wilson.
Every consideration of political ex
pediency, every possibility of popula
approval in the later years Of the ad
ministration, every dictate of politica
: wisdom, it must be said, calls upol
: the party, both in congress and out O
( it, to support freely and loyalty tn
2 leadership which the president regard
as his political prerogative and which
t he gives SO much evidence of exercis
: ing with prudence, sagacity and dis
, tinction.
