McCune, more than Is years ago, is
on the court docket for The end OF
his week, and, it is blieved, will be

This case presents many features OF
an unusual character and will I'M
doubtedly attract considerable atten-

more than Is years ago, under pecu-
liar circumstances. Although no den
mite charges were made at the time,
It was strongly suspected by the
friends and neighbors of the Woman

husband to enable him to marry the
girl to whom he was then paying
attention. Many years passed, how

The Unjust Jud0e

-"@; ie has Oeen reveling in q modern application
TIC para L. ii the unjust judge. Who, not because
II, nc AeI! .rtiered him, though some of them both
,"r, JHa, a gruat deal, but because his fellow.judges
showed DISAPPOINTMENT of his conduct as plainly as
professional and judicial etiquette would permit,
changed his Judgments. Whatever we nay do in tie
way of paying tribute to his courage, we must with
hold praise of his discretion, in attempting to fine for
contempt half q hundred persons, including women
with babes in their arms. Scarcely can a judge at
tempt to pass Judgment upon one woman, particu.
larry for too much and too free talking, without too
serious danger of being defeated, but to sentence a
woman to Jail who had to take her two babies with
her, and then call the case OF another woman with
four children, and after filming her, jauntily hale to
the bar a young woman who had spoken her mind
about him to Il crowd Oh the street and had not yet
said all she had to say, shows a sad lack of judicial
balance and discretion.
1t is no wonder that in this las one lie net the
Waterloo that had been waiting just around the cor
ner for him. She denied with keen sarcasm that she
had spoken disrespectfully about him. On the con-
traIy, she had praised him, she SAID, because she
had told the crowd which was cheering her in tAc
street that he was an excellent example Of the
reason why there should be a recall of judges. This
was 50 close to the solar plexus that he reduced her
fine from 500 to $40, and then RENTED it entirely.
Later he let go tAe whole fifty men and women he had
summoned for contempt, most of whom he had fined
heavily, because he received a strong intimation from
his eight fellowjudges that he was not bringing credi:
Upon the bench, but was rather proving to the people
that it is sometimes possible to make such a mistake
i'll selecting judges that there should be some speedy
way to remedy it..
Whether or not the feminine sarcasm about his
excellence in the line of proving the need of tn Judi
cial recall be taken seriously. there is no question
about this example Of how a foolish and egotistical
judge can run anuch in exercising his power of pun
ishing for contempt lending support to the movement
to deprive judges OF the personal exercise of such
power. The authority and respect for the courts
must be maintained, but respect must not be sacri-
feed in a misguided effort to assert the authority.
Iii contempt proceedings the personal factor should
be entirely eliminated. The unjust Judge of Seattle,
while giving US an example Of foolish recklessness III
attempting to discipline a lot Of women all at one
time, has also contributed an exhibit in the more
serious matter of the proper proceedings for punish,
ment of contempt Of court.
