TIE INNOCENT SUFFER.

Times Republican If the allega-
! lions publicly made against Judge
Wright are true one of the old. old
/ tragedies CT life has been re-cnacted
again \ degenerate son OF Il dis
tinguished parent has wrecked the
fathers life and DESTROYED his honor
able career. The pride of the parent
and the attachment of the father for
| his son has caused the Judge to COM
promise the crime of the son in order
to keep a member OF his own family
cut of jail. This in substance is the
charge mad? by the mass meeting led,
OF course. by lawyers. who wished to
do the prosecuting of the son and
may or may not be extreme in their
statement.
Assuming that the accusations are
true in the main Judge Wright when
confronted with the awful choice be-
tween duty and parental affection has
fallen. He probably knew what it
would do to his own career as Il judge
but he may have preferred to suffer
humiliation and cOntlmely himself
than to see his own boy sent to the.
pcnitentiary. \ harsh public senti
ment will demand that he be Scourged
for his weakness. but the same scene
will he re-enactcd again and again so
long as sons are degenerate and fond
fathers are willing TO sacrifice them
selves in their vain hope to save their
sons.
OF course, if the charges against him
are true Judge Wright should resign.
We can't have him sentencing other
mems sons to Jail WHEN he kept his
own son out. but tile judge doubtless
reasoned that life for him had been
robbed of all of its joy whichever
course he pursued and was willing TO
suffer worse than a jail sentence him
self that his boy might he kept free.
His judgment was in error, his courage
failed in Il crisis, he chose the more
cowardly course, but he followed the
natural law of the parent, willing to
die that an unworthy son might live.
Sons or daughters who go about
their reckless. devilish purposes
thoughtless in the belief that they
alone take the consequences should
behold Judge Wright and his fall.
They should realize that their errors
will visit the punishment upon their
parents. that their successes will
bring joy mostly to their fathers and
mothers. Gentle and careful and con-
siderate of the safety OF aged parents
in plotting them through rough wa
tiers in boat. they often are incOnsid-
crate, brutal and criminal in the grief,
humiliation. sorrow and disgrace
which they are willing to visit upon
their parents by their own vices and
wrong doing. No young person
voyages through life alone in a boat.
Let him realize that. Aged fathers
and mothers are always On board
wherever he sails Judge Wright is
hopeless victim of his own sons
crime today if the mass meeting ut
Fort Dodge has presented the facts as
to his ease.

1T is impossible to prevent men from
quitting their work" says Mr. GOmpers.
There never was much objection to
that. The objection was to their pre-
venting other men from working. The
first proposition is academic. the sec
ond is Il paper of brass tacks-B. J.. 4.
in Chicago Tribune.
b. l.. r. hit the bulls eye that time
OF course. men have the mdisputed
right to quit work. but other men have
the .undisputed right to accept the jobs
thus deserted and the entire power of
the government. if needs be, ought to
be used to protect men in the right to
work when they want to and when Il
job is offered them. Yet labor unions
in many instances use force to keep
deserving men from earning the wages
their own members refuse to earn.

1t appears that Senator Sherman
went off half-cOcked as usual when
he charged that the president had ac-
cepted about $1,0OO.00O worth of pres
ents while in Europe. The president
has caused Secretary Tumulty to pub
lish Il list of the things he received
and the value is not very much.
There is certainly enough material
for legitimate criticism of the prcsi-

to the court yard and made them kiss

to us, is Il foolish proceeding. \ man
