PULLS" RUN COURTS
Poor Man or Litigant Without
Gang Influence Has No Chance
for Justice in Chicago.

AN honest litlgant comes into court
by the front door"
This legend Is printed on large
placard which occupies conspicuous
place In the chambers of Judge John
Stelk of the punishment and replevin
branch of the Municipal Court.
II had that sign made and placed
1t there because | got weary of re.
ceiving many persons who call on me
every day just before court convenes,
Offering various reasons for taking
some action In cases which were to
appear before me-" said Judge Stelk.
"For time 1t seemed as though
every case that came up was brought
to my attention In that form. I tried
to be diplomatic, but 1t didn't work,
so ] have put the sign there where all
who come may see IT,
81 am trying to devise some way of
conveying the same message to per
sons who insist on calling me over
the telephone under the same circum
stances. 1t would save me the trou.
bic of telling people who ought to
know better than to call me that q
Judge with conscience and self.respect
tries all his cases In open court"
Frank J. Hogan has made a great
record as attorney for the Fire De-
partment. He is always looking after
the interest OF the people.

DARK CLOUDS.

1t appears from a brief glance
at the Mexican War news IN
cent papers that the
United States and the de factc
Government of Mexico have
about reached parting OF the
ways. The final point OF dlsa-
greement seems to be the IN
sistence of General Carranza
that time limit be placed upon
the occupation of Mexican terri
tory by United States troops and
the refusal of this Government
to accede thereto. Unless one
side or the other will make some
concessions which can gracefully
be met half way by the other con-
sequences will be serious. The
punitive expedition in pursuit OF
Villa is a minute affair to what
may be expected as the outcome
of open hostilities between the
United States and the people Of
Mexico. It must necessarily
mean war, which will include a
full invasion of Mexico by United
States forces. The occupation Of
the country indefinitely by Amer
lean troops, in the same manner
in which Cuba and the PHILIPPINES
were occupied, and must be per-
sisted in until such a substantial
form of local government can he
established in that unfortunate
country as may reasonably be eX-
pected to pursue its sovereign
functions with good hope of sue
cess after the withdrawal of
American arms. This, of course,
will be by far the biggest under
taking since the Civil War. The
cost in life and money to the
American people will be enor-
nous and will be felt andfelt hard
in every nook and corner of the
United States. The people of
the States still hope against hope
that the almost inevitable will be
averted in some way before the
rupture has reached the stage
where retraction by either side
is impossible.
