NOT GUILTY.

Scotland Yard detectives expose an
unusual case of an innocent person be-
ing found guilty and sentenced to pay
the penalty for a crime committed by
another
The case involved an English wo-
man, Mrs. Rose Emma Cooling, who
was arrested on the charge of sending
criminally libelous letters to a neigh
Dor. The jury found her guilty. She
had been in prison two months, await
ing trial, so the judge let her off with
10 days
That was last December. In March,
Mrs. Gooding again was arrested.
charged with the same offense. Again
she was convicted and sent to Jail, this
time for a year, the trial judge COM
menting that the previous light SEN
tence evidently had not been appre-
ciated.
But the libelous letters came COM
ing, though Mrs. Cooling was in a
cell. Scotland Yard took the trail. The
investigation caused the court of Grim
inal appeal to release Mrs. Gooding.
saying:
This woman is perfectly innocent OF
the offenses of which she has been ac-
cused."
Yet she had a fair trial."
The Gooding case in England, and
occasional similar cases nearer home,
make you wonder IL our system of
taking evidence In criminal charges
has a fatal flaw. Also, whether many
innocents are railroaded to prison.
Justice sometimes makes mistakes.
To err Is human. The brain of man has
not yet developed to the point where It
can devise a mistake proof system for
Justice or anything else. But
Miscarriages OF justice are in the
minority. They are exceptions. For one
thing. ours is a great improvement
over the Napoleonic criminal code, still
In operation in Quebec, by which the
accused is assumed guilty until he
proves his innocence.
1t isn't many hundred years since
trial was conducted by ordeal. The
accused was supposed to be guilty I'M
less he could pick up handful OF red
hot Goals without burning the fingers.
In place of testimony under oath. he
had to plunge his ram into boiling
water as proof OF his sincerity.
Thieves were proclaimed guilty II
they choked when trying to swallow
dry barley bread ana cheese in court.
Justice then was based on witchcraft
superstition
We have. at least. developed to-
the point where trials are conducted by
processes Of reasoning and fact. The
emotional appeal in court is slowly
dying out, though 1t cllngs tanaciously.
There's a long way to go before JUS
tice Will be infallible. But il you get
into court now. as an accused, you
have 1000 times the chances your an
cestors had In the days Of armor and
Worst obstacle to the attainment Of
absolute justice is human stupidity, |
in many juries. That Is an
element that will be difficult of soIu-
lion.

SHALL ONE MAN DO WHAT HE
PLEAsES WITH $1f GOO, O0o, 900
WAR I 0ANc7

That our war loans to foreign gov
ernments ought to be funded no one
disputes. That the transactions, ought
to be In the open and above board
and that the refunding plan should
have the sanction of Congress before
1t is put in operation or before the
deals are contaminated ought not to
be a matter Of dispute, as Democratic
leaders Of the Senate see it.
But the funding of this enormous
debt of $11. 600, 100000. as approved by
President Harding, in the bill spon-
sored by Senator Penrose, confers
upon the Secretary of the Treasury
blanket power to fund this indebted
ness in ways he may deem best, to
accept such securities and to substi-
tute bonds and securities for other
bonds and securities without other
approval than his own; in other
words. Mr. Mellon is to be the sole
person to the transactions on behalf
judge of what shall be done and how
1t shall be done.
Every time he has been before the
Senate Finance Committee in connec-
ton with this measure, Mr.. Mellon
has insisted upon having this author
ity, but not once has he submitted a
plan; on the contrary. he has admitted
having no definite plan, further than
to meet situations as they arise.
The question asked by Democratic
Senators, and It is one for the people
themselves to answer, Is: Should one
man be given absolute power to deal
with this s11. 100000 indebtedness
as he sees fit without revealing what
he plans to do and without being sub
ject to the authority Of Congress,
which granted these loans; which is
the only power that could grant them
and is the only power that has su-
preme control of the finances Of the
government?

Of spirit which they had prior IL the

lustered their service, patriotism and

Profiteering by citizens who re-

many respects, a crime. Excessive gain
from war is blood money. On the other
hand. It would be. in principle just as
erroneous for persons who did not ac-
cumulate any profit or who did not re-
ceive ample compensation. to declare
that profiteering justified demands or
claims for reward The glory Of pa

require reward of any kind. and it Is
all brighter II it is unsullied by the
least faint of commercialism or selfish"

whose health was impaired by military

were real victims of the war, are pro-

do, should impress on their compa-

Give me to rest in a quiet town
Built by old rovers OF the sea,
Where they have come to lay them

Sure Of their spirits mastery.

Are white walled homes where strong

And the presence of far-off lands
Born OF the sounding harbor bell.
There is the peace of tasks well done.

The survey, to be started soon, will

There was a certain Ethiopian, and
he worked for the Pullman Benevolent
Society. And he could not remember
what Shoes belonged to What Berth
Therefore did he mark with Chalk
upon the Sole of the Shoes the num-
Der of the Berth. And he blacked
them and replaced them.
And there came a night when he
had gathered the shoes, and he fell
asleep before they were BACKED. And
he FASTENED. and he wiped the dust
off them with a Rag, and he replaced
them under the Berth. And the pas
.sengers tipped him just the same. For
they beheld the chalk mark and ac-
cepted it as evidence that their shoes
had been BACKED.

made great discovery. If people
think their shoes have been BACKED,
then they are BACKED.
For he had been to College, and he
knew the system Of a celebrated Ger

And he said, This is world of

was worth a Quarter. and the black
ing was worth no more.
But he tried 1t once upon me. and

and do it honestly, or else betake thee
to the hay and omit the chalk mark.
And I considered how many men
there be who fall into the same sys-
tenn. They discover some method

calm assurance that their absent
