Judge Thomas and the Long Delays
o
An article of XovoiiiIut '2. over the siyiijiture of Judge Thumns, contains statements
wliiili we acquit him of having knowledge of. The language of the aiiele is not his. In
tin statement it is said that prior to January 1, l!J:t, the tiraetiee existed amongst law
yers of filing eases "with the deliherate pui'iiose of ihniding real estate titles nnd com
pelling settlemmt in ease of sale. This was nothing short of hlaekmail, and it has been
terminated. A party has no right to use the courts to annoy or harrass his neighbor."
This statement is an absolute falsehood. It is deliberately made by a person other
than Judge Thomas. It is made by a supporter of his, and we would even acquit him of
such practices.
. FOULS HIS OWN NEGT
We say that Judge Thomas did not write the article. It' n judge expects law en
forcement to be successful and the laws to be properly administered, he must not de
fame his own institution nor foul his own nest. Courts of justice must command the
respect of all citizens.
Lawyers do not seek to control the votes of the people but they do as,sist the people
in the formation and the shaping of the government. No judge should seek politieul pre
ferment by attempting to undermine tho confidence of the community in the courts of
justice. These, courts of justice must be administered by lawyers. It may be all right to
joke lawyers as to their profession, but serious, premeditated nnd untruthful statements
that they deliberately cloud titles to real property in order to blackmail somebody in the
future is not MUDSl.lN'OINt! but it is MM Kb.
T.et the author publish the name of the lawyer or lawyers whose practice it has been
lo so disgrace the profession and so misuse t he courts.
Tho unfairness of those conducting tho campaign cf Judge Thomas has established
how unwise it would be to retain Judge Thomas upon the bench tinder such circum
stances. If he must do tho business of the court with lawyers of whom he holds such
opinions, then indeed it will be impossible for him to give the people the administration
.which they have the right to demand. Is it not time to make a change!

Criminal Cases!
Porter Not'!', advocate for Judge Thomas, passes lightly the fact that Judge;
Thomas dismissed Ml) criminal cases in violation of the statute which says
Hint he must set out in the Journal the reasons for the dismissals. We point
out STATE V. COOK. In that ease the public should demand to know the
reasons for the dismissal. The grand jury indicted the defendant for driving
while drunk and thereby lulling a woman passenger in his car. The indict
ments were two: manslaughter for killing the woman, nnd for driving while,
intoxicated. This tragedy occurred near Jacksonville. Heretofore we called
attention lo it. Let Judge Thomas state the reason for the dismissal.

The Farming Business
Much lias been said duriup; tin" campaign about solving the fanners' problems.
The same hokum has been dealt out to the farmer that was handed to him
twenty yours ago.
Tho average politician thinks of the farmer as the .fellow with lonp; whiskcr.3
nnd a wheat straw in his mouth, that we havo always seen in the funny pictures. .
Every constructive business' man who has given the matter any thought at all
says that the farmers' problems can be solved only by the farmer.
The day laborer's wage problem was solved years ago by the formation of the
Labor Union. More than 90 of the skilled laborers in the United States today are
members of fhe Labor Union.
They pay regular membership dues and thus support the organization that,
through'its power and influence practically guarantees them good pay for their labor.
The fanner's problem t.f a fair price for Ins produce nnd 100 value for his dol
lar is not nearly so difficult a problem as theirs, for every individual fanner has
some capital other than his labor. He is able to invest something in a co-operative
organization and thus build up a business that, will have power antl go far toward put
ting farming and the fanner on a business basis, j
A groat majority of the'farmcr's problems arc strictly local nnd enn be abso
lutely controlled by local co-operative organizations. j
To complete your fanning operation by building up a poweitful business organi
zation you have only to affiliate yourself with your local Co-opieratives.
