The Kclationsef Newspaper and the Courts. The Subject Discussed by Leading Journals. A Flagrant Judicial Ciiine. Philadelphia Times. In the bill of rights guaranteed te the people by the fundamental law of the commonwealth, it is written that "the printing press shall be lice te every per son who may undertake te examine the proceedings of the Legislature or any branch of the government, and no law shall ever be made te restrain the right thereof." Such lias been the supreme law of Pennsylvania since the organization of our civil government ; but the enlightened progress of the age was fairly reflected in the additional clause that emanated from the late constitutional convention, pro viding that there could be no conviction for libel in a criminal prosecution for the publication of matter proper for the pub lic information, even if unwarranted by the truth, unless "maliciously or negli gently made." There was an old-time be lief cherished by some of our judicial dig nitaries that they were a privileged class, and that they were tee sacred in their ellice te be criticised by public journals, however conspicuously they might display the infirmities from which none, high or low, can claim exemption ; but nearly half a century age that judicial delusion was dissipated by a statute that se taught the judiciary the necessity of the wholesome restraints of the press. In the act of luth June, 1836, it is provided as fellows : " Ne publication out of court, respecting the conduct of the judges, officers of the court, jurors, witnesses, parties, or any of them, of, in or concerning any cause de pending in such court, shall be construed into a contempt of the said court, se as te render the author, printer, publisher or cither of them, liable te attachment aud summary punishment for the same." There is no mistaking the spirit aud plain intent of the foregoing statute and its letter could net mere clearly express the sevcie limitations within which the necessary power of courts te inflict sum mary punishment for contempt of its au thority shall be exercised ; yet in the face of these safeguards te the citizen given in the fundamental law, and lepcat ed by statute, Judge Patterson, of Lancas ter, has stricken the names of A. J. Stein nian and W. U. Hensel from the roll of at torneys for a "publication out of court re specting the conduct of the judges." It is tiue that the act of 1800 does net distinctly refer te publications by attorneys and in terms exempt them from summary punishment for misbehavior in eflice ; but it must be evident from a care ful study of the entire act, that such statu tory protection was emitted solely because it wa assumed that no judge in this com monwealth of newspapers and free schools could be capable of such midsummer mad ness. The words "no publication out of court " are net accidental. They were manifestly employed te express the ab sence of all exceptions te the rule ; and te assume that an attorney, net profession silly connected with the case criticised, and withholding criticism until the linal dis posal of the legal dispute, can be sent for by messenger te appear before a judge, catechized as te his legitimate editorial duties, summoned without complaint te answer rules for contempt and misbeha vior in office, aud finally discharged from the contempt but subjected te the mere infamous judgment of dismissal from his office of attorney, must be an act of the most atrocious judicial tyranny or the con stitution and the laws must be lying snaies for the press. As this startling judicial act of Jud:;c Patterson is one that affects the entire legal profession of the state and the highest safeguards of public journals, we give elsewhere the full text of the decision that assumes te unsettle the guarantees which have been sacred since the foundation of our government. It will be most carefully studied by the judges, the attorneys and the journalists of the state, for it is a revo lutionary departure that unites judicial ig norance, and the despotism that official ig norance ever breeds, te the absolute en thralmcnt of the press, and the enforce ment of silence however great may be judicial wrongs. It is" a decision that, if sustained and enforced, would retire from the columns of both city and rural newspapers, their ablest and most needed contributors, and fully two thirds of the prominent lawyers of the state would te-day be liable te dismis sal from office, and criticism of judicial proceedings would be among the forbid den pieiegativcs of journalism. It must be remembered that if it be misbehavior in office for an attorney te print criticism upon judicial proceedings in newspapers, it must be equally an offense te criticize en the hustings a judge who may be a can didate for election, and even the private conversation of attorneys must be free from all suggestion in regard te the fair ness or integrity of a judge. If it is an of fense te write and publish, it must be equally an offense te speak cither in pub lic or in private, for either must, accord ing te Judge Patterson, be "calculated te disturb and prejudice the mind of the pub lic respecting the impartial and just ad ministration of distributive justice." And what aie the facts which underlie this insolent judicial deliverance against tnc jecitimate prerogatives ei iuu iiumie press ? If Judge Patterson had sincerely aimed te protect the sanctity of the admin istration of justice, there might be some excuse for a' blunder that is worse than a crime ; but his whole judicial action in this case clearly and painfully refutes his fidelity te the integrity of his own court. A lawless ward politician was arraigned in the quarter sessions for keeping a disor derly house. The mayor and his police were unable te maintain order in the im mediate community because they were political potentates who protected him. The case was finally forced into court, and Mr. Brown, associate attorney for the pros ecution, was deputed by the district attor ney te examine the witnesses. He met Mr. Jehnsen, counsel for the defense, who urged upon Mr. Brown that " the Snyders were the best workers in the ward," and that.thcy should net be convicted. Mr. Brown did net cxamine the witnesses, but reported te District Attorney Eshleman that there was no case against the defend ant, and a verdict of net guilty was taken without trial. This was before Judge Liv ingsten, who,of ceurte,had no knowledge of the deliberate miscarriage of justice. The result provoked free criticism and ear nest pretest from two of the leading jour nals of Lancaster, one of each party, and se direct were the accusations against the I management of the prosecution that Dis trict Attorney Eshleman instituted a variety of suits against the JVew Era for libel. One of the suits came up for trial before Judge Patterson, and he heard the testimony in open court, from his own sworn officers, establishing the fact that the administration of justice had been subordinated te promote political ends. Had he desired te maintain the integrity of the channels of justice, he would, then and there, have had abundant employ ment for rules for contempt and misbe havior m office ; but he was silent under the shame that was flung into the his judi cial face, and never attempted te vindicate the dignity and majesty of the law from pollution in its own sanctuary, although called upon te de se by leading journals at home and abroad. Se positive were the pretests from the press and public that the mockery of a second indictment was played before Judge Patterson, and he ruled, as the law directed, that the former acquittal entitled the defendant te dis charge. It was then that Messrs. Stein man and Hensel reverted te the fact that nobody had been called te account for the palpable pervisien of justice, and they offended in the following paragraph : "Logically, the last acquital, like the first, was secured by a prostitution of the machinery of justice te serve the exigen cies of the Republican party. But as all the parties implicated, as well as the judges, belong te that party, the court is unanimous for once that it need take no cognizance of the imposition practiced upon it and the disgrace attaching te it." The complaint of the lawyer-editors was that Judge Patterson failed te take cogni zance of " a prostitution of the machinery of justice" in his own court; and the judge, instead of purging the polluted temple of the law wherein he was master, passed the guilty parties by and visited the vengeance of perverted authority upon the officers of the court who had demanded that justice should knew no distinction between parties. In short, Judge Patterson was himself the offender by plain dereliction of duty, and his at tempt te inflict summary and disgraceful punishment upon the respondents, under circumstances entirely without precedent in our judicial history, shows, te use hisewn language, that his felly was equalled only by his criminality. A judge who thus hides his own disregard of the integrity of jus tice behind the feeblest technicalities must of necessity misquote the law. His ex tracts from the Austin case are ingeniously garbled, but they emit the stubborn English of Chief Justice Gibsen, in structing him that attorneys " held their offices during geed behavior, and are net answerable for a scru tiny into the official conduct et" the judges," and the later mandate te him in the Dickens case declares that "an act, though highly discreditable, if net infa mous, and unconnected with an attorney's duties, will net give the court jurisdiction te strike him from the roll." Had Judge Patterson studied the plain language of the constitution, of the act of 18eG, of the repeated decisions en the point, and then examined the precedents established by the many abler judges than himself who have suffered even graver criticism without pro vocation, and taught the dignity of the judicial office by a dignified devotion te justice, he would have saved himself from an act of judicial tyranny that is a re proach te our courts and te our civilization. His judgment is net only entirely without precedent, but it is against all precedents, and it is the mere atrocious because it mul tiplies the abuses of judicial power te hide the protected prostitution of justice in his own court. That he will be reversed in the court of last resort cannot be reason ably doubted, but even the vindication of the misjudged law and of the prerogatives of the pi ess will leave a Patterson en the bench te blot the annals of justice in Penn sylvania. Disbarred for Doing their Duty. Baltimore Sun. Judge Patterson, of the Lancaster (Pa.) court, en Saturday filed an opinion in the case of Messrs. Stemman and Hensel, sti iking them from the roll of the attor neys of the court. These gentlemen have been disbarred as attorneys for doing their duty as editors. They were editors and publishers of the Lancaster Ixtei.t.ioen Ixtei.t.ieen cek, as well as attorneys, and in the for mer capacity, having committed no offense as lawyers or as citizens, ventured te com ment upon a case of notoriety that had been tried and adjudicated upon. The court had, therefore, done with the case. It was en trial only befeie the bar of public opinion, and there Messrs. Stcinman and Hensel, in the dis charge of their professional duty as editors, proceeded te arraign it. Fer this they wcie charged with contempt of court, but the rule for contempt was discharged because the alleged misconduct was net committed in the presence of the court. The rule te disbar, however, was made ab solute, and the names of Steinman and Hensel were struck from the roll of attor neys. This proceeding excites considerable feeling in Pennsylvania, and the Philadel phia Times says that ' if Judge Patterson has acted within the legitimate powers of the courts in this case, then is the boasted freedom of the press, se clearly defined in our fundamental law, a mockery and a lie, and every journalist who happens te be a member of the bar is a mere plaything of the ignorance or malice that sometimes crawls or climbs te the bench." Let Dim lleunce the Pulpit. Philadelphia Xerth American. Judge Patterson's rule, disbarring Messrs. Stcinman aud Hensel, members of the Lancaster bar, for opinions expressed in the editorial columns of the paper which they own, is a most remarkable stretch of judicial authority. As editors of a daily journal, responsible only te their patrons, they commented upon a case already de termined, and with which they had no professional connection. Te admit that for this acta judge may disbar them would be te concede his right te usurp the func tiens of both grand and petit juries, and te impose a dangerous check net only upon the freedom of the press, but also upon freedom of speech. Fer, if a judge may thus punish an editor who happened te be a member of the bar, he might equally disbar for pulpit utterances a clergyman who happened also at any time te have been a member of the bar. Messrs. Stein man and Hensel will meet with universal sympathy and encouragement in their ir.-' tentien te carry the matter, if need be, up te the court of last resort. Philadelphia Times of Sunday. Judge Patterson filed an opinion yester day in the Lancaster court, striking the names of Messrs. Steinman and Hensel from the roll of attorneys. Of all the many judicial vagaries cxhieited in latter day courts, the act of Judge Patterson is among the most flagrant. It attempts te dishonor two reputable members of the bar, who have committed no offense what ever, either before the court or in the ex ercise of their professional prerogatives outside the court. A legal trial that had attracted the widest public discussion ; that had shamed the court in its own sanctuary by the testimony of its own sworn officers ; that had dragged the ad ministration of justice into the sluices of the wars of parties and factions, and that stands upon the records of the court and is imbedded in the considerate public judgment as a GRAND G-RAISTD LANCASTEE BAZAAE, Ne. 13 EAST KING STREET, THMSDAY, APBIL 8th, 1880.

As editors of a public journal, they reflected what the sworn testimony before the court had taught the community, and for thus criticising a legal proceeding with which they had no professional connection and after its final disposition by the court, Judge Patterson has declared himself te be above the Cons titution and the law by striking editors from the roll of attorneys for daring te question his judicial acts. If Judge Pat terson has acted within the legitimate powers of the courts in this case, then is the boasted freedom of the press, se clearly defined in our fundamental law, a mockery and a lie ; and every journalist who hap pens te be a member of the bar is the niere plaything of the ignorance or malice that sometimes crawls or climbs te the bench. Its Imagination Fails It. Philadelphia Pre-.. Judge Patterson's decision in the Lan caster court of common pleas en Saturday, disbarring Messrs. Hensel and Stcinman, the editors of the Lvteleigexckk, for an article in that journal which he says, " impeached the integiityef the court," will decide nothing, as these gentlemcn who combine the profession of the law with that of journalism, will appeal te a higher court; and the judge evidently knew that it would decide nothing, since he discharged the rule for contempt which had been entered, and punished the offend ers for what he pronounces a libel. If Messrs. Steinman and Hensel were guilty of libel as journalists the court has gene about the wrong way of punishing them, and if they were net guilty of contempt as members of his court, it is difficult te im agine what they were guilty of. Philadelphia Inquirer. Judge Patterson, of the Laucaster court, by striking the names of tiie editors of the Intelligencer, of that place, from the list of attorneys, net for what they did as attorneys, but as editors, has in a most thorough manner made himself ridiculous, and brought the law, as expounded by himself, into merited contempt. As edi tors, Messrs. Steinman and Hensel, who are also lawyers, felt compelled te criticise legal proceedings, which, in their vocation as journalists, they had net only a right te de, but which, if the criticisms were just, it was their bounden duty te de. But, as their adverse comments affect ed Judge Patterten, he dragged the editors into court, and then, without dis proving their criticism, but, arrogating te himself the various offices of public prose preso prose cutor, judge and jury, arraigned, tried, convicted and sentenced them as attorneys for an act which, as attorneys, they had net done. "We are inclined te believe, upon the ground that law is both common sense of justice, that Judge Patterson's law is as defective as it is original, and that the supreme court, before which the disbarred attorneys propose te carry it, will net confirm it as a precedent, for, should it be se confirmed, no attorney could hereafter pursue the profession of a journalist without a license from every petty, wrong, er irascible country judge, and with the understanding that, no mat ter hew corrupt or ignorant the judge might be, no proceedings of his court should be criticised. The sooner the supreme court acts upon this case the bet it will be for the community, for it cannot tee promptly rebuke the vindictivencss or blunders of a petty official, whose peculiar law, if net set aside, would seen set aside altogether our boasted liberty of the press. Philadelphia Recerd. About two months age Messrs. Hensel and Stcinman, two lawyers, who happened te be editors of the Lancaster Intelli gencer or two editors who happened te be lawyers charged Judge Patterson in the columns of their journal with being in fluenced by his political affiliations in fail ing te call certain persons te account for procuring, by false representations, the acquittal of- a Republican ward worker named Snyder. The two lawyer-editors, or editor-lawyers, were hauled up before the irate iudsie, who entered a rule upon them te answer for a contempt in the pub lication referred te and te show cause why they should net be disbarred for mis behavior in their' office of attorney. They appeared in answer te the summons, but declined te purge themselves by disclaimer or apology of the alleged contempt. Judge Patterson finally announced his opinion en Saturday, dismissing the -charge of con tempt but disbarring the two attorneys for professional misbehavior in impeaching the official integrity of the court. The severance of one rule into two was an ex traordinary piece of judicial legerdemain. The "contempt" was evidently the gravamen of these two men's offence, and, being dismissed, it would seem that the whele procedure should then have ended. Judge Patterson however, proceeds te create a new offense under the name of "misbehavior," and after wading through three columns of verbiage concludes by firing Messrs. Stein man and Hensel out of the bar. The dis barred gentlemen thereupon appeal te a higher court, and revenge themselves upon Judge Patterson by publishing his remark able "opinion." All the alleged reasoning in the world OPENING. OPENING THE- BROTHERS fapr3-lyd would net convince any man of common sense that the expulsion of these two law yers was net a high-handed outrage. The day has long passed when the bench could claim immunity from criticism. Since the eight-te-scven decision of the electoral commission, three years age, the peeple have had their eyes opened te the fact there is such a thing as partisanship among judges, as there always ad mittedly has been among legisla tors and executive officers. The judi cial department of the government, both state and national, ought of ceurse te be elevated above any and all partisan bias or prepossession ; but this ideal standard of purity is net always and everywhere real ized in these degenerate days. It is true that judges act under the sanction of au oath, but se de congressmen, members of the Legislature, governors and presidents. )h-s. I). Morrison. Furnham Centre, P. O.. writing uheutJL.
