And reap deserved success.
Joy to the man with an outsretched

Senator Bryan in Defense Of Our
Courts

Senator Nathan Bryan, of this
State, in his Labor Day speech at
st. Augustine, said:
at has been one of the chief
glories of our system of juriSprud.
ence that our courts uphold the
rights of men, irrespective of their
number, their influence, or their
wealth. And, just here permit
me to say that that man is dan
gerous citizen, who would under
take to make the people lose faith
in their courts. | believe, on the
whole, men in public offices, in all
of the three great departments
legislative, executive and judicial
are upright and honest. Per-
haps our Institutions are strong
enough to withstand unmerited
criticisms of the executive and
legislative branches of the govern
ment, but, unless the judiciary be
maintained in all its purity, the
injury to our constitution is be-
yond all calculation. Men called
into positions of responsibility, as
a rule, measure up to them. | be-
lieve this is especially true with
respect to judges. / believe, also,
that there is no justification or
foundation for attacks upon our
judiciary, and if there is not, there
cannot be more cruel act, or a
more dangerous one, than to
spread abroad the belief that JUS
ice is not administered con-
'cientiously and impartially."
That is all well enough, per-
maps, for oratorical purposes on
occasions of public celebration
and we have all heard it many,
many times before, but it doesn t
get to the point. 1t is platitudi-
nous and without practical value.
If Senator Bryan is in vital touch
with the masses of his countrymen,
he knows that distrust of the
courts is everywhere prevalent
and that wherever two or three
men of the "plain people" kind
are. met together and the admins
tration of justice through the
courts is subject of converse
ton, those men are often worse
than skeptical and have reached
The Punta Gorda herald. [volume] (Punta Gorda, Fla.) 1893-1958, 1915-09-16

the point in their distrust where
they have little or no hope in the
efficiency of the courts.
And if Senator Bryan is as wise
and well informed as we hope he
lis, he knows that this distrust is
not wanton or gratuitous, but is
based solely upon the action OF
the courts themselves in their no
torious inefficiency as speedy and
effective agencies in administer
ing justice, especially on the Grim
inal side of the docket. And II
Senator Bryan wants to locate the
seat of the trouble, he has but to
iput his finger upon his own pro-
fession, for the lawyers make our
laws and run our courts, and If
they are not responsible for the
short comings of the latter, Meth
er is the man who makes and OPP
crates machine of wood and
iron chargeable with its defcien-
cies.
Everybody knows this to be
true. Great lawyers and jurists
all over the Union, such men as
William H. Taft and Elihu Root,
who have no personal or profess
sional interest in the delay or de-
feat Of justice for the sake of
client and his fee, admit and de-
plore these defects in our courts
and are urging remedial legisla-
ton to cure them.
Senator Bryan says that "that
man is a dangerous citizen who
would undertake to make the peo-
pie lose faith in their courts. "
In the sense in which the senator
used the phrase, he is correct.
Such men as he refers to are al
most negligible in numbers and in
fluence, but they themselves are
but the by-products of that great
mass Of honest and intelligent
citizens who know from their own
experience and observation that
the courts are not efficient and new
er will be until persistent popular
complaint and agitation have
created a virile and aggressive
public sentiment that will bring
reform. Don't blame the people
for criticizing the courts, Senator
Bryan, but blame the class respon-
sible for the things the people
criticize.-Lakeland Telegram.

fixed.
That the new note, insofar as the
facts II cites are concerned, may be .f-

the new note to Great Britain requires
time and care. 1t Is this which has
tended inNpart to delay the preparation

are less difficult to deal with than the
facts. The British memorandum deals
with the facts In specific cases and will
be examined to ascertain how the Brit

Whether the British memorandum re-

to the department. But It was made
clear that this Governments assertion
