BOY AND 25-CENT CASE
TAKE COURTS attention
Cafritz, Accused of Petit Larceny
From Peoples Drug Store,
Freed on Own Bond.

Three hours were consumed and
scores of pages of a stenographer's
notebook Were filled yesterday on a
25-cent petit larceny case in the
United States branch of the Police
Court.
Israel Cafritz minor, was charged
with stealing or attempting to steal
a package of tooth-powder from the
Peoples drug store.
Witnesses for the defendant testi-
fed that the boy had picked up the
package, taken it to one clerk and
rendered a quarter in payment, which
was refused. The clerk directed the
boy to another clerk to have the war
stamp affixed. it was testified 1t
was also shown that the boy had
made an effort to pay several clerks
for the package and that he was ar
rested by the manager of the store
while making an effort to pay a clerk.
At the end of the hearing Judge
Mcmahon said that the government
had failed to show that the boy had
stolen the property in question and
that no intention to steal had been
shown, but, on the contrary. it was in
evidence that the boy made an en-
deavor to purchase the article in
question. The court took the boys
personal bond.

clareS the report. which, nevertheless,
impair it's (the Constitution's) spirit:
courts may exact bail from those who
have incurred the animoSity or fear of
public prosecutors. which it is not
within the power of the normal men,
ber of the community to secure; a
censorship of the press may be tightly
established under the guise of law; the
appointment for the peaceable assem-
bling of the friends of good order, out
of fear of inability to cope with dis
order: a Legislature may deem it wise
to curtail the ease with which a house,
holder may keep arms: a court may
find ii consistent with its idea of con-
stitutionality to drag an accused per-
son into a jurisdiction on a theory of
constructive presence. and parlor so
cialist may sincerely chafe at the
bonds of constitution which inter-
the habits of a world. but they all to-
gether are the constant dropping
which wears away a stone.
The tendency to disregard the
inhibitionS of the Constitution is wide
spread; it leads to devices to obey the
letter, while violating the spirit; the
spirit is fair play and the square DEAL
and it has kept us headed in the right
direction. both for domestic well being
and in world affairs. Whatever may
be said of the writ of habeas corpus
and it's functions; of venue: of the
power of Congress to fix the situs of
crimes of omission, the fact will re-
main that it is not a square deal nor
fair play to take even an enemy under
the guiSe of judicial process to a dis

ture of desolation and horror un-
matched in the entire war, after it
had been looted by the Chinese mer-
cenarieS. These men are anxious TO
return to their own homes, and they
have been taught to believe that the
only thing which prevents their re-
turning is the Kolchak armies. Once
they break through they will return
to China to spread bolshevik doc
trines from one end of the orient to
the other.
"If bolshevism can be kept isolated
in Russia. it will wear itself out by
its own eXcesses. Bolshevism is like
sickness preying upon the weak
and ignorant. By cutting off the ter
means of military force. the disease
will wear itself out. Governments
are slow moving, but there is one
thing which can be done by the peo-
pie of America imm mediately.

Behind the Kolchak army there
is another Ditiful army of refugees.
Hundreds of thousands of people
have fed out of bolshevik Russia into
Siberia. They are under the pro
lection and care of Kolchak and the
