Right here at the Indian court at
Fort Hall, it could be proven that
marriage when performed by the

in the case of Grant Martin who ap-
piled for divorce. The court rul-
ed that Grant Martin must take the

LAWSUITS FOR SPITE
AND REVENUE

A species of wasting of the ta1
money in efforts to even up persona
grudges comes to light in some Of
the libel suits that have been filed
and tried against newspapers in sew
eral towns of the Snake River Val
ley in recent years. Twin Falls and
American Falls publishers have been
the victims in part and the people
of the counties victimized in part.
In such cases as we refer to, some
body or some clique with grudge
at the publisher, file a suit against
the paper for damages, and some at
torney or attorneys take the case
with the understanding that II they
win and get the money they divide
it between the parties, including
their lawyers, and if they lose, then
the lawyers get nothing and the costs
of the suit are paid by the county.
The crowd bringing the suit arrange
it in such a way that those who are
not named as plaintiffs are called as
witnesses in the case, or as men who
are able to tell what was the effect
on the public mind, of publication
of the articles complained Of, and
the suit becomes profitable to some
of them even tho they lose the case.
The law is such that they can get
that kind of case into court with
out putting UP the costs of the suit
or any bond to insure it's payment.
Then If they lose the suit, the county
pays the cost, and if they win, the
publisher has it to pay in addition to
the amount of judgment for the
plaintiffs. 1t becomes a case of
"heads I win; tails you lose," with
the winnings in favor of those who
start the suit 1t costs about hun
dred dollars day to operate the
court and jury so unless the plain
tiffs are responsible, they can start
that kind of suit as often as court
convenes and not have to pay more
than the few dollars it takes to get
the complaint filed. The intended
victim and the taxpayers foot the
rest of the costs. Bingham county
has had some such suits in recent
years, one being tried by jury last
hundred dollars. 1t cost the pub
Usher a few hundred dollars worth
of time and work to assemble the
to prove that he had act
ed in good faith and that he was
right in the main points. 1t cost
him his attorneys fees, which can
not be regained from the plaintiffs
in any case, and In this case judg-
ment against the plaintiff for costs
was not valuable, SO when the case
was over, he moved away and left
the taxpayers to foot the bills.
Nearly all Of the libel suits against
Idaho newspapers in recent years
have turned out the same way-the
newspaper and the public paying the
expense of suits that had little or no
merit, but which nevertheless were
made to help break the publisher
and add new burdens to the taxpay-
ars.

er in hot weather, and rightly so,
and it resulted in committees being
appointed to look over the city and
decide where the swimming holes
should be located for the season OF
1928.
A lot of people in Denver got down
to first principals and thought out
the question, What real harm is
there anyway, in boys being seen
romping in and around the water
minus their wet clothes?"

THE BOYS CAPTURED
DENVER

Judge Ben b. Lindsay is one o
Western Americas great outstanding
characters of the present generation
and will go down in history as
man who made the world better TO-
having lived in it. 1t was he WHIT
helped design the juvenile court ant
get it into operation, and for Ions
time he has been the juvenile judge
of Denver.
Judge Lindsay does a great man.
perfectly, original things, and he II
generally in harmony with human
nature and good clean honor, altht
he is not always considered reg
ular" and conventional. He is the
friend of youth and boyhood, and is
big brother to the boys of Denver
especially the boys of the poorer
classes. Last summer something
happened that furnishes food fol
thought in good many angles, in
Guiding the current agitation as ia
dress. The point will be apparent
after reading the following:
Some boys went in swimming in
some kind of a reservoir within the
city limits, and policemen observing
that it was within sight of residences
and passing traffic, sought to arrest
the boys but they scampered away
at first and then sneaked back after
the officers had gone. OF course
the officers persevered and got them,
and took the whole squad into the
Juvenile court for judge Lindsay to
deal with.
The judges sympathies were with
the boys They had only lived out
their natural tendency, and what
harm had the urchins done anyway!
There was the law against this and
against that, and almost everything
that human beings might wish to
do was forbidden by some ordinance
or state law or by the rules of So
ciety, and what could a judge do
but uphold the law or get out?
Judge Lindsay seemed stumped,
and he sat looking out of the win
dow saying nothing. In the court
yard was fountain, the centerpiece
being surmounted by bronze statue
of a woman in her birthday suit. All
about her were the statues of small
boys, also unclad, but with perfect
physiques all complete, in positions
indicating that they were romping
in the waters.
The judge seemed to get an idea
from this scene, and he walked over
to the window. Then he beckoned
to the boys who were awaiting SEN
tence, and said to them, go out and
play with these other boys-the
city and society all seem to approve
of what they are doing"
One of the boys said, do you
mean it Judge?" and on being as
sured that he did, they all hurried
out Of court and were soon in the
water. The policemen who had
brought them in stood around laugh
ing at the sport, and people gath
cred around and enjoyed the spec
tacle, which, according to the ordin-
ance books, was crime for live
boys but was all right for similar
forms made of metal, and for the
woman made of bronze.
In a few minutes there were re-
porters and photographers on the
ground, and Denver heard about it
thru the papers, with pictures Of it
all! Everybody began to realize thatl
