ment for violations of the law, it
would be that the bench quit trad
inc with solicitors and attorneys for
violators of law in the matter Of
melting out punishment. The judge
should dominate his own court, as
certain for himself the underlying
facts and circumstances surrounding
infractions of the law, and should
exercise his independent judgement
in the matter of punishment. OF
course he should hear the solicitor
and he should hear the defendant.
He should hear from the law enforce
ment officers of the county
and from those good citizens
who have the manhood and the cour-
age to come into court and openly
denounce crime in individual cases,
rather than from those persons who
from self interest go up to the desk
to say a word quietly about how
good a fellow some convicted man
is and has been, and how defenseless
is his wife and children at home.
The prohibition law has been pass
ed by the legislature only after 1t
was submitted to the people OF the
state, who by their votes have de-
manded that the manufacture OF,
and traffic in, liquor must cease. The
people of the state who are worth
while are solidly behind the law. The
juries will convict if the evidence IS
forthcoming and all that we now
need to enforce the law and to pre-
vent it's being made a huge joke is
Judges with the nerve to put Volat-
ors on the rock pile, solicitors inter-
ested in getting and producing the
evidence, and law officers worn to
uphold the law who regard their
oaths. We need most of all sober
men on the bench, sober men in the
Office, and sober law Of
In most place we have these
and wherever we have them the law
commands respect.
