and they will get theirs, too, in due
time"
Mr.. Gray explained that man
whose original tax was, say, IS, would

cutor begins business in court. OF
this total. $1.3O is original penalty
for delinquency. while the court
costs will add about SIT more.

On the day when Francois in Lon

Of Vicques. She carried il 10 Pietro's

shores. His elbow on the stone win

stared at the familiar picture.
Alike, coming in without knocking
at the open door, stepped across and
stood by him, and he did not yet lIkt
his head, his listless eyes did not yet
shift their gaze from the broad land
scape. Alike, looking down at the
the black head with it's short curls
set in thick locks-after the manner

And Pietro turned slowly and look

a look no one could mistake except a
woman who would not let herself
understand.

THE PUBLIC DEFENDER

The country in general is just
beginning to realize that heretofore
a very necessary official of the ju-
liciary has been entirely overlooked
the Public Defender. The crea-
ton of this Office last spring by the
city of Los Angeles aroused little
more at the time than amused
smiles and condemnation of the put
ting into practice the idea of some
sociological enthusiast, but the re-
rults attained have vindicated the
theories of the original supporters
of the movement and also attracted
the attention of every person inter-
ested in the upllft.
Los Angeles proved that often
the INDECENT criminal was more
slnned against than SHINING" and
that in the past many persons,
guilty of no greater crime than pow
erty, had been railroaded to prison.
not through any individual preju-
dice on the part of the judge trying
the case, but due to an obsolete
system which provided for the ap-
pointing of a youthful and general
ly inexperienced lawyer. just out of
school, to defend the accused. The
result was always a foregone con-
clusion, with the young lawyer
matched against an able and expert.
enced lawyer.
Interviews with the prosecuting
attorneys in various cities show that
these officials also recognize the nee
essitv of providing some other sys-
tenn than the one now in vogue, and
consensus of opinion Is that the
creation of the Office of Public De-
fender, will work to the benefit OF
the community in general, and incl
deutally be money saver.
Statistics show that nearly every
city of any size appropriates yearly
a greater sum of money for the pay
ment of lawyers appoin' ed TO defend
INDECENT prisoners than would be
needed to pay the salary and office
expenses of first class Great
Divide.

AN EXEMPLARY PRISON
By The Baron

A diminutive isle which is stu.
ated in the English Channel, boasts
of prison that has never held a
captive for over forty years. This
may sound strange to the reader.
but. unequivocally it is true. The
Island of Sark or, Serk so to speak,
originally belonged to France, but
evidently was transferred to the
British.
The plenipotentiary is the Seig-
nior who with four Jurats, rule the
island with such diplomatic logic,
that crime and criminals are un-
known. To describe the island, it
would take a descriptive writer of
the M. E. Braddon calibre to ac-
complish that purpose. 1t was on
my initial trip that | became ac-
quainted with the history of this
bizarre Jail. | happened to be one
of the tourists who where conduct
ed around the island, when one of
the party asked if there was a
prison on the island. Why" ex-
claimed the guide in astonishment.
this is the prison that you are in at
the present moment" can you i'm
agine the surprise! A wall that a
jersey COW was looking over. brok-
en- in many places, also a small
building with thatched roof and a
stout oaken door. with a paddock
about eight inches in diameter,
rusty and corroded, an impossibility
to open it; yet, such was the case!
We learned upon investigation,
that it had not had single occu-
pant for forty years nor was it likely
to have one. faid the guide.
about one year ago l happened
to glance over my English paper,
when my eye caught the following
words: An arrest in Serk." Ap-
parently a Mr.. o. came over
from the island of Guernsey to col
lect a debt, the debtor was the
Seignlor. 1t is a we'll known fact
that if a man owes a sum of money
in any shape or form, and the credi-
tor asks the same, that said debt is
paid-that is, in accordance with
the laws of both Guernsey and Serk.
A controversy took place and with
it followed fight, Mr.. o. get
ting the major part of the punish
ment. Mr.. - went home to
Guernsey where he informed the
chief constable who promptly dis
patched policeman by the next
boat. The policeman
tried to arrest the Seignior, and
failed. The Seignior arrested the
constable for assault, entertained
him to lunch, marched him on board
the S. S. Alert and on their arrival
at Guernsey had the constable lock-
ed up all night. However, the case
was settled out of court, the Seig-

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE
Why must we always be med
ding with somebody? Why is i
always someone else who must bt
made good?
Why do we think we have con
stantly to regulate people, to preach
at them, to reach them." to con.
vert them, to civilize them, to up.
lift them?
People are always asking, "Wha,
are you going to do with this OF
that sort of person? As though the
universe would go to pieces if we
did not do something to someone.
A subject of his majesty. George
v, once asked me why l was so
much in sympathy with the Beers
in that South African war of a few
years ago. He was sure that the
English could give those people a
better government than they were
capable of furnishing themselves.
| answered, 1t is because l want to
know that there is at least one little
spot on this earth-even if it is in
the heart of Africa a mau
can go and get away from an Eng.
lishman."
Not that | have anything at all
against the English you understand
But isn't it a relief to you some
times to know that there are people
in this world who are different from
yourself? Isn't it almost like taking
a little vacation just to be able to
sit down and think that somewhere
there are real living people who are
quite happy and content in perfect
uncoDcern about a lot of things that
you and 1 think are so desperately
important?
Be modest. Intolerance which
insists that all the world must be
and dress up and think and act ex-
actly like yourself is the most out
rageous immodesty.
OF course, we have to have law
and order and decency and govern
ment and conventions and social or
ganization to harmonize peoples
relations with one another-just as
we must have fixed language in
order to express our thoughts and
needs to our fellow-men. Anarch-
ism would turn the world into a
moral Babeland confusion of tongues.
But we ought not to be so pro-
vincial as to insist that our langu-
age is the only tongue in which
decent people may express them
selves.
Likewise let us not make our
ideals and conventions and rules too
exclusive. Do not make these things
end in themselves. Do not use
them to pry in between man and
his conscience. Let him settle his
own account with his maker. Do
not make the forms more valuable
than life. DO not throw away and
destroy all life that cannot be re-
duced to your little system. That
is the modern kind of human sacri-
flee. And there is lot of that sort
of thing going on in this world,
too. Hundreds of idols claiming
their victims every day.
Be tolerant. Respect other peo-
ple's personality. Use government
and organization to protect people
against injustice on part of one an
other. Use the power of society to
accomplish task that are too big for
individuals to undertake. But re-
member that the minority has its
personal rights.
The sole justification for the ex-
istence of constitution is to protect
the rights of the minority. The
majority can be trusted to take care
of itself. IS Selected.

HE AMERICAN FLAG STANDS
FOR PROGRESS,

The American flag heads the pro
cession tonight where hundreds of
earnest and determined women are
marching to express their hope that
after this campaign that flag may
float in the Treasure State over a
true democracy.
That flag has heralded the great
est reforms of the age; it has stood
for protection and a new life to
oppressed nations, and stands today,
In the midst of a world war, the
most potent factor for peace in the
whole world.
In the celebration in Baltimore of
the centennial of the Stars and
Stripes, the suffragists bore a con
spicuous part. This was as it should
be. No n denies that in the work
fbuilding up the nation women
have furnished their part in toll and
sacrifice. Then in this campaign for
political equality it is fitting that
women should carry the banner and
bear it on and on, until al last OLD
Glory floats over a whole nation
whose government is "of all the

until the last outpost is secured.

of an Anna Howard Shaw. In her
