A SUBJECT OF GENERAL XEWS PAPER MSCCSSIOX. THE DRIFT OP PRESS OPINION. ' Listeners" and Special Editorial Con tributors te the Rescue. Tne Vending Ouestien. Cambria Freeman. Judge Patterson, of Lancaster county, entered a rule last week en Messrs. Stein nian and Ilensel, editors of the Lancaster Ixtelligexcf.ij, who happened also te he members of the bar of that county, te show cause whv they should net answer for contempt of court, and why their names should net be stricken from the list of attorneys. The alleged contempt con sisted in certain strictures en the court by the IxTELi.ier.xcEK, in reference te the peculiar manner in which a whisky prose cution was disposed of with the consent of Judge Patterson. If his honor believed that the article iti the IXTELi.ir.EXcnu was libelous, he had precisely the same remedy at law that every ether man has, and if he was afraid te submit his case te the judg ment of a jury, he will find, we doubt net, befeie he gets through with his Star Cham ber proceeding against Steitiman and Ilen sel as editors, that he committed the greatest mistake of his life. If lawyers can e stricken lrem the roll el attorneys simply because of their criticism of a court as editors, that fact ought te be ascer tained and made clear by the highest judi cial authority in the state. An act of Assembly was passed last May en this very subject, of which the editeis of the IxTELLiOEXCEit will, of course, at the proper time avail themselves, should it be come necessary. Who struck the immortal Billy Patterson has never yet been found out, and the great question new te be de termined is, did Steiuman and Ilensel ac complish the feat by. bringing the ceuit of Billy's namesake into ridicule and con tempt '.' Suggesting a Itetreat. Huntingdon Monitor. Judge Patterson last week summoned Messrs. Ilensel and Steiuman, editors of the Lancaster Intelligencer, befeie him te answer for contempt, and when they appeared in court he awarded a rule te show cause why their names should net be stricken from the list of attorneys. The IxTELL'GEXcEit in speaking of a case which had been tried in the criminal court of Lancaster county said that the defend ant's acquittal had been secured " by a prostitution of the machinery of justice te wive the exigencies of the llepublican 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 attach ing te it." This criticism aroused the anger of Judge Patterson, and he resolved te execute fierce vengeance en the editors, who are members of the Lancaster bar. Instead of instituting a prosecution against them for libel, and compelling them te an swer the charge before an impartial com I and jury of their countrymen. Judge Patterson has signified his intention te act the part of prosecutor, judge and the jury in the trial of the case. It cannot be that such judicial despotism as this will be tel erated in Pennsylvania. If any wrong has bccii done Judge Patterson by" the editors e he lNTKLi..Gr.NCCK the courts arc open 1 I"!1 1.! command, te redress the iniurv accerdim te the forms of law. But he cannot be ! permitted te punish lawyers for contempt because in the discharge of their duties as editors of a newspaper they have criticised his judicial acts. Fer such criticism they are responsible as editors, and net as law yers. Tlllll". .Illlbrn T'-itnrsmi li!)c nl-mrnl ' himself in a pitiable prcdiciment, cannot be denied even by his best friends. There is but one henable way for him te get rid of his dilemma, and that is, te discharge the rule, en the ground that he had no legal right te award it. About Judges ill General. Easten Free Pres. Judge Patterson, of Lancaster, has been taught a lessen he may well heed. If he! has net availed himself of this opportunity j te add te his stock te knowledge, ether judges had better take notice net te use ! Star Chamber methods in dealing with ! editors 01 newsiapcrs ler imaginary con tempt of ceuit and if the court be really contemptible the greater need for chariness in the use of arbitary powers. If a judge is libc'ctl by a newspaper he must use the same means for his vindication that any ether citizen must use, than whom he is no better and no .worse in the eye of the law. In the case of some rctnarks'madc by the Lancas ter Intelligence!!, which were prsubly libelous, unjust and false, Judge Patter son assumed airs of having quicker ways of protecting his reputation than the law gives te ordinary men, because he was a judge. He has shown himself te be werse than any specification alleged against him a judge with' peer judgment. His pro ceeding will fritter out, and while the editors will escape he will have the mem ory of his error for his pains. It is bad policy ferjudges te set up te be tee smart ; they de net figure well in that direction in a state where there are se many news papers as in Pennsylvania. ? If Mr. F. B. Gewcn has been talking rashly about the supreme court of Penn sylvania and the corruption of its justices, he ought te be called upon te explain. We hope he is wrong; it would be foolish te be wrong in such a matter, and foolish he is net. Bight or wrong, however, te senti ments credited te him elsewhere will be be lieved by a large portion of the public se long as supreme court judges ride 011 free passes and railroads make money out of their decisions, by previously calculating en them. Is it possible that this shame, se boldly and defiantly shouted, cannot be shown te be slanderous ? Let us have the answer before election time. Tlie Contempt Case. "A Listener" in the Examiner and Express. Yeu will oblige one who was a listener yesterday, te the legal argument in the case new engrossing public attention, te insert a quotation which the learned gen tleman of Philadelphia failed te quote. I quote it for him, and our community may then begin te sec that there arc two sides te the question new engaging public at tention. I quote from 5 Watts and Ser geant, page 274, the opinion in which was delivered by Judge Bedgcrs, of Pennsyl vania. "In Austin and ethers (e Rewle 191) it is held that it is a breach of professional fidelity te attack the proceedings of the court for impure and improper purposes, through the medium of the public press; for such an offence the court; may properly exercise the power given them te suspend or expel an attorney from his eflice. Indeed, without this power and its occasional exer cise, the -courts themselves would be brought into public odium and contempt." 3 W. & S. 274, A Listener. fersets the Law of 1879. BeRefente Watchmam. The whole proceeding was most discred itable en the part of the judge, and any lawyer of ability in the country will agree with us, if he hesitates te say se. And here is where the weakness and imperfec tion of our judiciary system manifests it self most fercibl v. Lawyers de net alwavs dare te say what they think when by se doing they may bring themselves into dis agreeable centlict with a judge who has se mucn arbitrary power which some de net hesitate te use, as gentlemen of the bar very well knew, and has been practically de de menstated te these of Lancaster. Judge Patterson has no mere control in his judicial capacity ever these gentlemen in their capacity as editors, than he has ever any ether citizen. This fact is tee plain for argument or demonstration. But, suppose he presumes te exercise an un doubted power though it be net supported by right : Who is te prevent it ? He can, we doubt net, dismiss these gentlemen from the bar, and hew are they te help themselves:' If they were obscure attor neys in a country town, and without means or friends, they would have no re dress, and their case would probably never be heard of where it could at all affect the parties concerned. As it is, the.-e men arc in a position te make a fight, ami one that is sure te be dainajrin-r te their adversary I eventually. Yet, except for the moral effect of public opinion, we de net see what power these lawyer-editors could ex ercise as against the most arbitrarily un just action the judge might have the har dihood te carry out. They could net pre vent the immediate wrong te themselves, and their only present comfort would be the assurance that time, effort, friends and an aroused public would net only in the sequel right them but also their persecu tor. Still, the means by which the could be righted would be, at the best, a round about and diilicult process, and would net be within the reach of many a poorer at torney who might be compelled te suffi r m silence under most palpable wrong. That such things are possible demonstrates that our system of administering the law is unity, and we arc assured that there is 110 wrong or defect, clearly perceived te be such, but what ihay be remedied. lay The Voice of the Press. u Spirit et Berk-. The ease of the editors of the Lancaster Intelligencer, who are also practicing attorneys at the Lancaster bar, has attract ed numerous comments from the press of Pennsylvania and ether states, and in no instance that has come under our observa tion has the summary preceding of Judge Patterson been approved. On the contra ry, it has been condemned in mere or less positive terms by the voice of the whole press, Republican, Democratic and Independent. - Twe questions here arise : Hew far can the judges of our courts claim immunity from criticism of their eilieial acts".' And, aie editors who happen te be also attor neys, se be held responsible an attorneys for any printed publications they may make in reference te matters pei tabling te judicial proceedings '.' Ne one, in these days, will claim that judges are seated se high above their fellow men as te be beyond the reach of fair and honest criti cism. If they were, then our courts would be a sole and singular exception te the rule which is clearly laid down in the constitution that "The printing press shall be free te every person who may undertake te examine the pro ceedings of the Legislature, or of any branch of government, and no law shall ever be made te restrain the right thereof." "Every citizen sulect c ,m.t ' edJ" being rcspel.sib 111.1J ui'Bi) speair, write aim print en any eeeeuings net except- cspensiblc ler the abuse of that liberty. " .New, if the editors of the Intelligencer, in their criticisms upon the Snyder cases, had abused the liberty which the constitution guarantees te them, Judge Patterson had his remedy te hand, by a prosecution for libel. But that he should presume te call men te account as lawyers, for what they have said as editors or, in ether words, that editors, when they also assume the profession of attorneys, shall be held te have divested themselves alto gether of the right te freely print their opinions upon matters that occur in court is a new and dangerous doctrine, and one which, if admitted, places the judge above law and constitution, and makes him the irresponsible minister of his own arbitrary will. The printed words of the Lancaster Intelligencer may or may net be libelous of that, net being acquainted with all the facts and circupistances, we are net prepared te express an opinion. But hew they can be tortured into a con tempt of court, or "misbehavior in eiliee" by an attorney when they were used out side the court and net in connection with any judicial proceeding then before the court, passes our comprehension. i:ssnylng a Had ICele. Lewi-town Democrat and Sentinel. The editors of the Intelligence!:, being also members of the bar practicing in the court ever which Patterson, unfortunately for the ends of justice, presides, Iiavinir criticised some of the tortuous proceedings he sanctioned, has entered a rule in his own court upon them, returnable te-morrow, te show cause why they should nei be disbarred for contempt of court, be cause of such editorial animadversions. Is it any wonder with such illustrations of judicial distemper the old-time reverence for the bench is rapidly disappearing '.' The utter incempetency of Patterson for a seat upon it could net be made mere apparent than by this puny attempt te abridge the legitimate freedom of the press. It Will Xet " Oive Up tlie Cm" Until the Cure is JCeuievetl. Xew Helland Clarien. The all-absorbing topic among newspa per readers of this county, at present, is the pitched battle between Judge Patter son and the editors of the Lancaster Intel ligencer. The entire public press of this and and ether states denounce proceedings of Judge Patterson as outrageous ; if net in se many words, they de se in substance. It is of little interest te us which party have the law and precedents en their side in this case, but it is of vital moment te us, as well as every citizen of this county, what this constant bickering and " mud flinging" at our court of justice by cer tain dailies means. Is justice prostituted for political gain ? Or arc these editors giving vent te their vituperations and denunciations through the columns of their respective papers merely te avenge some real or imaginary wrong received at the hands of the court? We cannot persuade ourselves te believe it is the latter, yet if it is the former, can it be possible that the new daily of Lan caster which, se assiduously peulticed this sere en the body court-politic some time age would abandon the case just as it was coming te a head? We entertain grave fears in that direction. The Xew Era prides itself in stating that it is net. their funeral. If it is net, then their obsequies were being conducted when Hay Brown and Frank Eshleman officiated and the last words in their death threes were "Let the band play," and Revs. Brown and Eshleman granted their request, for the band did play. Indeed, the dissatisfaction of the Xew Era as te the adjustment of their case crops out repeatedly in the columns of that paper, which leads us te believe that they are net fully convinced that the facts, as they stated them, were net correct. If se their dereliction of duty as pertains te modern journalism is without a shadow of excuse, and instead of sitting idly by and scaring their conscience with the het iron of "it's none of our funeral," they should endeavor te ascertain who these men are who prostitute the courts of jus tice for this is the veritable Mike Snyder case of Xew Era fame expose them, and have them punished. But when the call is made for "music by the band ' it should play the enlivening strains of victory in stead of defeat. Provincial journalism dees net have tiie advantages aeceided te metropolitan journals and the press of inland cities, but 11 these Lancaster dailies continue making these scathing accusations about our courts and make no clferts te fully investigate the cases when an opportunity presents itself, the rural pi ess of this county will be compelled te demand an investigation or knew the reason why. If our court is a political machine or an institution of de bauchery it is high time that steps wprc taken te purify it. The Xew Era had the opportunity once te ascertain whether this Snyder case was a prostitution of justice but it signally failed. It will new, no doubt, presunt itself te the Intelligence!:, aim we wait with some degree 01 auxiety te see what the result will be. The rule against the editors of the Intelligence!: was made returnable en Fiiday of this week and in consequence the band has played its first tune bei'010 this paper will have reached its readers. We de hope that if the IXTELi.iGEXCEKassumes the role of physicians te the court, in order te heal this festering boil, that it will net give up the case until the core is removed, other wise it will never be soundly or perfectly healed. It is with a feeling of shame that we record the fact that our court, throughout this section, is but a by-word and re proach. And why : because the journals in question periodically denounce it as such, and the people take up the cry. The majesty of the law considers a man inno cent until preven guiltv. AVe have no right te accept the opinion of several edi tors as te its debauched condition, espec ially when they have the chance te in ake geed their assertions and fail ; and we can certainly net laud a progressive (:') jour nal that teaches its readers te direspect their highest tribunal, when the proof of their accusations is net forthcoming, The province of a public journal is te mould as well as te reflect public opinion, but inculcating such principles has a ten dency te evil and only evil. In the course of a few months we expect te see these accusations proven or complete silence en the part of the Lancaster dailies. An Editors, Xet Lawyers. Reliefeiite Democrat. The recent action of Judge Patterson, of Lancaster county, in citing Messrs. Stein man and Ilensel, of the Lancaster Intelli gencer, te show cause why their names should net be stricken from the list of at torneys for an alleged contempt of court, meets with universal rebuke. Thesegcntle man have net offended the court as law yers, but as editors. Besides beinir members el the Lancaster bar, they are the editors of an able and in fluential newspaper, and it seems ab surd that a judge of the court should have power te held them responsible as attorneys for opinions expressed te the public in their vocation of journalists. As the editors of a newspaper they should be independent of the courts. If they have libelled Judge Patterson he has his remedy against them as any one el.-e would have and they should be held responsible as ether editors would be, but for a judge te assume arbitrary authority ever them and mete out punishment according te his will is such a stretch of power as cannot be tol erated under a free government. Se far as we have seen, the press of the state is unanimous in condemnation of Judge Pat terson, and it is te be hejied the editors will bravely stand by their rights. ItllY GOODS, JLV.
