NOME, ALASKA, SEPT. 10. 1918

The case Of the reverend assistant
rector who has confessed to murdcrin-
Il girl Is one from which Il few lessons
might be- extracted as he might say
himself while he WAS engaged preach
ing the gospel. In the first place it
shows the many strange ways by
second place it brings to mind the un-
reasoning attacks made on churches
because Of the faults Of some Of their
clergy. People who are accustomed -
defend certain organizations by de-
claring that the faults of few Of their
members should not be used as \
weapon against the whole order are
often the first ia condemn churches
when they find some clergyman erring.
They reason that a church must be
wrong because some of it's pillars are
bad but they never seem to pause to
think that the very goodness of chur-
ches is the very reason why they at
tract criminals who are DESTROYS Of
hiding their true character under the
churches cloak. 1t would be just as
reasonable to attack churches because
Il few bad members have been dis
covered in them as ii would be to con-
denim n field of wheat because in pat
ches it shows decay. Because n bad
minister is made to look worse by
contrast with his religious calling he
appears like a blotch of dirt on an
otherwise clean table cloth while n
consistently soilcd cloth might pass
muster and escape remark
on the whole ministers of religion
are infinitely superior in moral sense
to their critics. Were it otherwise
churches would have faded from tails
critical world long ago.

SulZcr and barrow and several other
men who reach the spot light also
manage to reach lawsuits in which
women are plaintiffs. The impeached
with breach of promise suit and
Darrow is threatened with n suit for
separate maintenance. The suffering
lady In the Sulzer affair has been suf-
fering in silence for years and the suf-
fering lady in the Darrow case feels
that she ought also to have some balm
for her outraged feelings in the shape
of some of the shekels which she be-
lieves barrow to have in abundance
Now, who can think of a well raised
girl who has been surrounded with the
influences Of decent home permitting
her and then still further publishing
her shortcomings to the world by 60
ing into open court and appraising her
innocence at so much per virtue In
dollars and cents? Does the very fact
of a woman going into court for such
purpose not cause intelligent people to
feel intuitively that such woman is
different from the kind of girl who
first caused to be inculcated In the
minds or men the spirit OF chivalry
which actually created the laws to pro-
tect women?
II seems to be strange but really Il
The Nome daily nugget., 1913-09-16

is fact that such laws were made for
decent women but the sort of women
for whom they were made either never
permit themselves to go so far as to
make their protection by such laws
necessary or, having gone too far, they
have still the possession OF sufficient
womanly modesty to prevent them
from airing their faults in public
courts.
one good which such laws effect is
that they prevent many men of money
from taking chances and as rule
men who are blessed with much Of the
goods of the world get very careful.
Those who are not wise sometimes get
caught and there should be very little
sympathy for them but there should
not he one bit more for the woman.

The latest from New York 10 to the
effect that Judge George c.. Holt

cember 31st. and under the law he Is
entitled to rest the remainder Of his
days on full pay when he reaches
that age. He has been on the Federal
bench six years.

Is of more than ordinary interest in
Richmond because CT the fact that II

Judge Holt ruled against Chaloner,
who Then appealed to the Circuit

Sidney put up the wherewithal for
the trip. which gave out soon after
their arrival here. The two lads. find-
ing themselves stranded, called on
Governor Mann for assistance. and he
referred them to the police depart
ment. From there they were sent
to the Associated Charities to think
over their lot and await an answer
to their call for help from home.
Yesterday the answer came from,
the Schenectady chief of police. who
said that Sidney's parents stood ready
to foot his transportation homeward.
