DECISION WAS RIGHT

Editor The Star: have always
had the opinion that Tho Star has
consistency tried to print facts and
play no favorites. and that It's high
position was to devote Its energies
for the protection OF the rights Of
the people against the unceasing
and insidious attacks OF special
privilege.
II is therefore with Amusement
that I have read The Stars article,
under the head, Shall a Judge
Gone Wrong Be Given Another
Chance7" which was directed
against Judge Root a few evenings
ago. II is claimed In your article
that Judge Root went wrong in al
lowing Judge Gordon. attorney for

case pending before the supreme
court, which case referred TO is the

liability for the loss OF household
goods. and endeayored TO defeat the
plaintiffs claim or limit his recov-
cry to an insignificant sum. BE,
cause the railway company had not
appraised the shipper that he had
choice OF rates, Judge Root held II
would not be fair to allow the rail
way company to limit the shippers
recovery and ordered the railway
company to pay the full amount
claimed by the shipper. The rail.
way company was, OF course. dissat-
isfied with this decision. and asked
that II be allowed to re-argue the
case. which request was granted,

Star again repeats that Roots
dercliction was In the fact
that he allowed a railway at.

the opinion for him. In that
particular case the judgment
was against 'ne railway. but
the wording OF the opinion was

the bar association lawyers,
