T F some one told you that little gray

The District Attorney

indict and last but by no means least, the
assistant to whom the case is assigned for
tria' goes over it with a fine tooth comb
and if he believes, not merely that there is
any doubt of the defendants guilt, but that
there is any considerable doubt of his own
ability to demonstrate it and secure con-
viction, he is astute to find any sort of
colorado excuse to recommend a dismissal
and thus escape the odium of an acquittal.
If there be any one who, after these
various consecutive steps have been taken,
thinks that the District Attorney should
not proceed on the theory that it is his
business to prove the defendant guilty by
every proper means at his command. he
belongs among those who still believe that
the proper way to have met the invaders
of Belgium would have been to go out
unarmed to greet the German hosts sing
ing songs of welcome, and thus to have
covered them with shame. No, there is a
point where the District Attorney has pre-
sumably fulfilled his duty toward the de-
fendant as "one of the public" and when
it has become his business to send him up
III he nOnOrdDly can 90 so
Some fifteen years ago>in The Prisoner
at the Bar" little book dealing with the
administration of criminal justice. I said:
"The District Attorney is a quasi tu-
dicial officer, who must be at one and the
same time the friend and right arm of
the court and the advocate of the public
right. His official position gives him an
influence with the jury which honor for
bids him to abuse, and demands an i'm
partial consideration of the evidence and
a dignified method of conducting the case,
Irrespective of the tactics of the defense.
He represents not only the public, but the
defendant, who is one of the public. He
should be glad to welcome at any stage of
the proceedings credible evidence tending
to establish the innocence of the accused
and if it convinces him that the defendant
is not guilty he should, even in the midst
of a trial, arise and move that the jury
be discharged and the prisoner set free.
But this is by no means inconsistent with
a vigorous insistence upon the peoples
rights nor does it require that the prose
cutor should refrain from using the ad-
vocate's customary weapons of attack and
defense. While he is examining the
witnesses for the defense and arguing to
the jury, he is for the time being the law
yer for the people, and the Appellate Courts
have said that it would be manifestly un-
fair not to extend to him in summing up
the case an equal latitude of expression
and scope of argument with counsel for
the defendant"
One might suppose after reading the re-
marks of certain reformers and penologists
that the community had no rights at all.
The constitutional guarantees which pro-
tect the liberty of the individual men were
not intended to deprive the public of an
advocate. But with all regard to human
ity 1t is not without reason that some
