Su< ii utterances, according to
Judge McIntyre, make tin- speakers
liable to indictment and punishment
by imprisonment.
Now. we hold no brief Tor street
orators. They are usually men with
one-track minds, and apt to be in
temperate in speech and not very
convincing in argument. Many
times their utterances are rank
nonsense and offensive to patriot
ism.
But we affirm that all
tit • unpatriotic and non
sensical utteratnes of the soap-boy
orators who ever spoke in New
York streets would not tie ono
tenth so michievous as the adoption
■ by American courts of justice of
till:; undemocratic and unconstitu
tional doctrine expounded to a
grand jury h\ Judge McIntyre
One may dispute the propriety
of speaking contemptuously of the
President and of Congress, but
, whenever tiie R1C.HT of any Am
erican to sneak as lie pleases about
, tiie President or th - Congress or
i any public set-van' is denied, or
made a punishable offense, that mo
ment the Constitution becomes a
i scrap of paper, the nation ceases to
i.i a democracy anil no man's lib-r
. t.ii s tire safe.
We ari amazed to hear the lung
i nape of sonic of tic Judges today.
, In better and manlier day- of the
I j Republic they would have hem
I promptly removed from tin bench
. for daring to proclaim in American
| car the abominable doctrine of
j I,K.SF .MAJKST1. the Still more
I abominable doctrine that tree
speech is a crime when the speak-1
er’s utterances do not please public
officials. We call Judge McIntyre’s
attention to the undeniable fact
that only a few short months ago
the President and the Congress
wore being daily denounced, ridi
culed and reviled, not by street
speakers, but hv editors of power
ful newspapers, ex-Prcsidcnts of the
United State.-, rich bankers. Sen
ators and Representatives in Con
gress ind MKMPHRS OF THE JU
DICIARY.
There nev r was mere letter and
scurrilous abuse heaped upon any
heads that, that with h the war
promoters h ap d upon President
Wilson as long as ho kept the na
tion out of the war in Europe; and
never was the majority in Congress
more foully abused than by these
very men who now . b,:nor for >he
imprisonment of anybody who
dares to criticize the policies of the
Government, or to hav ■ an c pinion
at variance with official opinion.
We have indeed fallen upon evil
times if Amerir.cn Judy-a i re to
uphold the servile do-trires of
l.ii.'E .-[AJErTE. the . lu-mina dt
i,.. triti. that the e\pr .-sion of opi
nion i-ai he a crime*, the de po i,
toeirine 11, it. priv .te opinion must
keep si!: nee in the pr< .-*.:>»•• of offi
cial opinion.
A Judge who deliberately holds
that a citizen has committed a t rime
if he lias spoken eontoinptueusly
of the I'reside nt or the Congreus 01
has condemned the coidtti.t of r.-b
■MSKMK<£tK«UMS«M
men, or has stigmatised corporations
as maiefactors—such Judge neither
knows the law nor administers the
law properly. and he is. besides
UNTRUE to his oath to maintain
the Constitution and his solemn
obligation to uphold and defend the
liberties of the land.
We have become disgusted with
the frequency with which we read
of men being committed to jail on
the charge that they have “spoken
disrespectfully" of the President
or the Government.
There is no such offense known
to laws. There can be no si ei of
fense known to our laws while the
Constitutional guarantees are in
font', and our Judges ought to
know at least that much law.
W]e seldom waste time in listen
ing to soap box orators, and do not
approve either of their theories o:
of their vioeid language, as a rule,
hut we would rather see every
street in New York lined with the
most fantastic and violent 6rutor«
>rt ev r mounted soup boxes tiian
to hear a magistrate proclaim from
t lie bench of an American Court
of justice a tyrannical doctrine of
LESE MAJESTE. which includes
not only Government ojiicials bill
“successful business men” and cor
porations. There is nothing more
utterly abominable than the doc
trine of official racredness. the slav
ish doctrine of tree speech is a
crime, unless it be the policy of
truckling subservience to wealth
and power.”
