THINGS WE DON'T SEE.

The man with good eyes in his
head sees many things-if he uses
them
The trouble with nrost of us,
though, is we do not use our eyes
as much as we shoulder at least
net in the right direction.
Engrossed in our own business
affairs we are slow to note the
things We could do to make this a
better town.
An opportunity to add to our
own bank account is grasped with
avidity,and we are quick to cast
around for others of its kind.
But that which adds to the col
lective good is too often passed by
1t is not seen because our minds
are centered upon individual gain
to the practical exclusion Of all
else. There are exceptions. of
course, but they are not sufficient
ly numerous to produce outstand-
ing results.
An official town booster wouldn't
be bad person to have, even il it
were necessary to pay him a res
pectable salary for using his eyes
while ours are closed.

clarity Of expression apparent In
his decisions. His love of truth
led him, in all matters of fact
submitted to his determination, to
ascertain and to analyze with the
greatest diligence every circum-
stance calculated to throw light
upon the questions involved, as
we'll as to determine their impor-
lance, relatively, to the other facts
in evidence. Guided by the light of
truth his whole aim was to do sub
stantial justice between the par
ties, but without substituting his
conception OF what the law ought
to be for the Jaw that was and 10
in his administration Of criminal
law, he endeavored to temper JUS
tice with mercy and by kindly adj
monition sought to bring back the
offender to his proper status as a
man and citizen.
In all his relations with the bar
and bench Judge Maxey was patti
ent. courteous, obliging ever ready
without cmplaint, to sacrifice his
personal convenience to the proper
performance of his official duties.
Judge Maxey possed the keenest
possible sense of his responsible
ties as judge and of the necessity
of illustrating in his judicial ca
reer the dignity and independence
of his position. For example: DUR
ing hi sincumbency and long prior
co the enactment of the Anti-Pass
Legislation now generally adopted
IN this country, he consistently de-
clined to receive or use railroad
passes, telegraph franks or other
accommodations of like nature.
This refusal was not based, of
course, upon the possibility that
the gift might influence his &C
tio;a in any wise, nor was it actual
ed by any suspicion of the motives
of the donors. but was due, we be-
lieve solely to his {, r. to pre-
serve his big offioe g in the
minds of all men iro.l any faint
of influence. Another practice, not
too common in occupants of the
bench marked his cnduct as
Judge: the merit and proceedings
in case pending only when coun-
sci representing both parties were
present.
By his exalted sense of duty his
extensive learning, hsi strict in
sistence upon docorum while his
court was sitting, his patienc and
his firm but kindly hearing on the
bench, his inherent dignity and
mis- ardent love of law and order,
Judge Maxey established and
maintained the proceedings in. his
court upon the highest plane and
made it venerable in the hearts
of the good citizens of the state
and terror to evil doors.

AS USUAL, HENRY's RIGHT

Excerpts from Mr.. Ford's page
In the Dearborn Independent, re-
lative to newspapers:
Familiarity with print has done
away with public reverence for it.
What a newspaper says is like a
voice in the crowd; If it is a COM
handing voice, it commands; If it
is q weak voice. no one gives at
tention. No newspaper is strong
simply because 1t Ia newspaper
being a newspaper has become
principally matter Of machinery
and OF subscription to the news
disseminating associations. A
newspaper is strong only so far as
it is informed, balanced, courag-
cous and fair.
The most widely read editorial
writer is probably THE least influ-
entail. The most widely bought
chain of newspapers is probably
the least respected.
The newspaper is just as re-
gponsive a vehicle of the principles
of it's controllers as a mans hand
is. What is in the heart and mind
of the men who make the news
papers, shines through-No news
paper rises higher than it's source,
and it's source is the working news
paper man.
The country editor is usually
overlooked. But it is a fact worth
noting that tie country editor had
the honor of retaining his edito-
rial independence when it was q
moot question whether the big city
editor was going to be able to re-
tain his.
The editor is still the big man.
IL he but knew it. The printing
press is still mightier than the
bank account, if it is handled with
half the skill which marks the
manipulation of the bank account.
It (tHe press) ought to get re-
ligion which ccc.vinces it that no
thing wrong can injure it while it
holds fast to the right. It ought to
get its breath back so it can speak
and get it's heart back 80 it can
fight, and it ought to shake off the
parasites that have chung to it and
so nearly Slapped its power.
