8 JUDGE SCOTT KNOCKED OUT | Eis Judicial Acts Find Little Favor with | a Buperior Tribunal, SUPREME COURT ON A CONTEMPT CASE Arbitrary Rulh ige in the Case of Attorneys Clair and Cobb Over- ruled by the Highe anal of the Stat One Cunningham R. Scott, a judge who presid the criminal section of the dintrict in this county, met the su preme court of the Tuesday after noon, and camg of the contest disfigured, being ely out of the ring and over the ropes, %0 to speak. In other words, this Judg Seott was reversed by the members of the gupreme bepch, and one of his decisions was set aside. The case In which Scott was reversed was from this county, and was one wherein he had found Silas W. Cobb and W. J. Clair, two lawyers, guilty of contempt, after which ke fined them $256 each and tenced them to twenty-four hours imprisonment in the county Jail. The alleged contempt grew out of the fol- { lowing proceedings At the February tes of the district court, to Jud had been as- signed for that term, the trial of all crim§ nal cases in the court room designated as toom No. L To Judge Scotv had been as- signed the dockets, civil and criminal, in the three other counties of Burt, Sarpy and Washington. However, before Judge Scott went on his circuit of these counties, he charged the grand jury which all the judges of the Fourth judiclal district had, as pro vided by law, called to convene in Douglas county on the opening of the February, term of the Douglas district court. grand jury returned, among other an indictment against one Hdward F. ) arly, a member of the Omaha city coun for the alleged offense of soliciting a brib Later, and on March 18, 1892, this indict; ment against Morearty was cailed for trial before Judge Davis and a jury, in court room No. 1. Clair and Cobb (and thes: young men only) were his attorneys and in sole charge of Morearty's defense. On the calling of the cause, and before entering Morearty's plea, Clair and Cobb filed in the office of the clerk of the court, and called up before Judge Davis, for a ruling thereon, a motion to quash the indictment against Morearty, in words and figures as follows: MOTION TO QUASH INDICTMENT. Comes now the def ndant In the above itled cause and mey_s th 't to quash Indictment horek T towit: itirat, That the charge heretofore given to the grand jury who found the indictment herein, by the honorable C. R. Scott, judge was inflammatory and prejudicial, in tha sald charge aroused the prejudice of said and 0 that they weré not fair an i rand juro s, aid charge is file | in ite flice of {he «lerk of this court, and is brein referred to and made a part’of this ot over court state out comp Kknocked | the the said indictment does not v offcnse under the laws of the ‘braska. 1, That said indictment is insufficient in law und is not specific enough, in that it fails to point out what said claim and bill of said C. E. Squircs' it was that was by fore the ) ouncil, at the time of the alleged commission of said crime. Judge Davis heard the motion and over- ruled it Morearty's attorneys reserved an exception and the trial proceeded by fm- panelling a jury and the hearing of evi- dence. On the morning of the next day (March 19), wille Morearty's trial was still In progress, Judge Scott walked into Judge Davis' court yoom and took a seat upon the bench beside Judge Davis. This was just before the hour for.the noon adfournment. Judge Scott held a short conversation with Judge Davls, after which the latter gave the jury the usual admonition and adjourned the further pro- gress of the trial until the afternoon of the same day. The jurors were filing out of the room, when Judge Scott. still remaining meated on the bench, held up in his hand the original paper filed in the office of the dlerk, and on which the motion to quash was written, and asked Attorneys Cobb and Clair it that was their motion and whether the names signed thercon were their own To this inquiry they both answered in the afirmative, JUDGE SCOTT TAKES A HAND. Judge Scott then ask:d the two attorneys it they were willing to strike out the first paragraph of the motion to quash and if they knew ef any statute authorizing tho filing of such a motion. Mr. Clair replied by saying: “I wi state for myself that the motiom was not flled under “any provision of the statute that I know of. 1 never looked to see it there was a provision of that kind, but I propose to fix myself in such a position by the filing of that motion that if it were nec- essary, in taking this case to the supremo court, 1 could raise the question as to Wwhether cr not the charge to the grand jury Wis one which Is contemplated by the laws of this state. I simply did it as an at. torney. 1 did not do it for the purpose of casting any reflection one way or the other. Mr. Cubb said: “I was a party to the fling of the mation. 1 filed it myself. Mr. Clair and myself prepared it in my ofiice. 1 did it in good faith. I did It with no dis Fegard for the court who gave the instruc- tions to the grand jury heretofore. I qid it after consultation, and, in fact, upon the suggestion of one of the oldest criminal practitioners at this bar. In fact, to show that T had no 11 qaith in the matter, I did it thinking it was simply doing my duty to my client and at the suggestion of this attorney who has practiced at the bar, 1 do nat desire to give his name.” Judge Scott—Do you refuse B name? Mr. Cobb—Yes, because 1 do not think it necessary., An attorney who has prac- ticed at “this bar for years, one of the best lawyers, civil or eriminal, ‘at this bar. But I am not giving that to cloar my skirts, but' to show my good faith. And, as [ tried to say, T Qid it, furthermore, so that we, as attorneys for the defendant, would have the advantage of everyfhing that was our duty to take advantage of, and 1 con- sidered it, and T consider it af the prosent time, my duty to take advantage of every- thing that has gone before the grand jury, as well as the jury. I think that is whi an attorney 1s” employed for, 1 conside that e would not be doing his duty if he considered that this might be held by the supreme court as one of the grounds of re- versal. I say that I consider that an at- torney would not be doing his duty unless he did all these things. And with no dis. respect to the court 1 did what I thought Was my duty to my client. Judge Scott—Do you know vision of the statute that ground to quash. Mr. Cobb—1 do not know of any provision in the statute. I do not know whether there s or not. Judge Scott—Gentlemen, you are both young men and 1 do not wish to injure you. I know that sometimes attorneys, and espe- elally young attorneys, sometimes old ones, in the flash of the moment and amid eltement, say things and do things which are a reflection and which should not have been sald or put on record. You say here that “the charge of the court heretofore elvan to the grand jury who found the in- lfotment herein, by the Hon. C. R. Scott Judge, was inflammatory and prejudiclal, pnd that, “said charge aroused the prejudice t said grand jurors.’ You both admit hat there Is no ground lald down fn the tatute for quashing the indictment as con- mplated by the matters I have just read Mr, Cobb—I do not know that we do, Judge Scott—I will glve you an opportunity Jo strike it out if you are so advised. It is direct charge at the court, of prejudicing he grand jury by an dnflammatory charge. ou look at the word Inflammatory and you il see that it has a bad meaning when ap- led to A court. I will give you an op- rtunity to strike it out. Mr. Olair—I would like time to consider it. Judge Scott—You will do it now, or not at I 1t {s my turn now. Mr. Cobb—At the present time I am not epared to strike out anything from the otion that we have filed heretofore. In msideration of the fact that we are called :;au peremptorily to do 0 now, or never, It I were per- to disclose of any makes pro- that a [2 Wy answer will be never. ' | Judge Seott | th THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, MAY 17, 1891 mitted to deliberate for an hour or two T might be led to strike it out, but in due con- | #ideration for my client, still believing that that would be one of the things that would possibly promote his interests in the trial of this case If taken to another court, I refuse to strike out anything, so far as I am con- corned, from the motion. FOUND GUILTY BEFORE TRIAL. Immediately after Judge Scott had judi- cially declared it his, not the court's “‘turn now,” he made an entry in the criminal docket, finding both of the men guilty of contempt of court going language In the motfon, which had been the day before filed 1n the office of the clerk of the court, and which had been heard on_its merits before another judge No sooner had the entry been made than quit the bench in a passion, but the plaintiffs in error persistently re- mained, insisting that the court reporter should record their protest against the judge making an entry in direct conflict with the acts, They even went further and had reporter note that they objected “to the court leaving the bench and refusing to hear any statements made' by them. At this Juncture the judge returned and said: “The leaving of the court of the bench was simply because the court would not r any further statements regarding the but the court gives them full right and opportunity to state their objections and take their exceptions on the record.” ORDERED THEM TO JAIL. On the morning of March 21 the journal of the court was amended and signed. A motion for a new trinl was made and promptly overruled. A request for a sus- pension of sentence was denied with equal promptness, and not until the supreme court was appealed to were the two men released from prisor The attorneys pre tlons and presented red the bill of excep- hem to Judge Scott in the afternoon, as he was leaving for Burt uty, but instead of signing them he ked the documents into his pocket and arried them away, returning them some uys later. In going to the supreme court the de- ants confended that there were the fol- ving errors at the alleged hearing: First, the motion did not constitute a contempt of court, ond, that If it was a contempt it was a contempt against the division presided over by Judge Davis and was no contempt against the judge of another court. Third, that if it a contempt In Judge Davis' court Judge Scott was without au- thority or jurisdiction to enter an order. Fourth, the charge to the grand jury- was inflammatory. Fifth, the punishment was vindictive and was inflicted to avenge what Judge Scott concelved was a personal insult to him; it was not to protect the dignity of the court. LANGUAGE OF THE CHARGE. opinion, from which there was no dissent, was prepared by As: te Justice Post. Seldom in the history of any supreme court has a district judge been o severely and pointedly rebuked by an appellate court as in this case. Justice Post couched h rebukes in the refined verbiage of the ben: but the language is all the more cutting b cause of its refinement. he charge to the grand jury of which the attorneys complained was characteristic of the judge that delivered it. A few sen- tences will give an idea of its general tenor: 1f any public officer converts the pub- lic funds * * ¢ he is also a criminal, and you should not abate your energy, or forget your obligation, or be discharged until ail of such public officers, whether now in or out of office, are made to kuow by proper bills of indictment (if the evi- dence can be h before you by the cxer- cise of diligence on your part) that the people will not longer be robbed by their public officials without a protest, so I as there remains room for nvicts the state penitentiary and a grand jury can be found to do its duty. To call such an officer’ a thlef would be flattery. That such persons have held office within the undaries of this county and within the ute of limitations is quite manifest, unless all indications point the wrong way. Nor will you have to exercise a very high degree of diiigence to find them it you are lookiug for public criminals, © A little well directed effort on your part, as grand jurors in the direction here in: dicated would doubtless open up a field into which a stone could not be thrown without hitting a cilmmal. You sk see to it that that stone is throw thrown hard. You owe it to yours the people whom you represent in - present service, and o _your sworn cbli- gations, to make that effort, and to make it with such an uncompromising zeal that hereafter & mark wore indellible than that put upon Cain shall be stamped upon their foreheads, marking them as “ticket- of-leave men” and moral blisters upon the politic.

You should give heed to that cry, for it comes from a patient and long-siffering endurance which has hed 18 limit, ing of the charge tice Post say: OPINION OF JUDGH POST. “Fuirly construed, the charge under con- sideration is an impassioned appeal, if not, indeed, an express direction -to the grand jury to prevent by indictment certain per- Sons not named, but who are assumed to be, guilty of the’crime of bribery. “In that sense, if not inflammatory, it at least what in the sclence of medicine 1% denominated heroic treatment.

Fairbank company of Chicago have lately brought suit in States court against W. L. Henry of th city for $5,000.00 for infringement of their trade mark, “Cottolene.” The N. K. Fair- bank company sets forth that they origi- nated, prepared, and put upon the market a new food product consisting of refined Cotton Seed Oil and a small proportion of Beef Suet, making a pale yellow material of the consistency and substance of lard, almost without odor and intended to take the place of lard in cooking. In order to Indicate the source and genu- ineness of their mew food product, the originated, coined, and use as a trade mark the word “Cottolene.”” The healthfulnes and many other advantages of Cottolene over lard were so apparent that Cottolene became at once very popular and Is now largely sold all over the country. The new food product and its name “Cot- tolene” have become widely known as the product of the N. K. Fairbank company. The trade mark is described as a ‘“trade mark for Oleaginous Food Substances, etc., “consisting of a head or neck of a steer or other bovine partially enclosed by sprigs and branches of the cotton plant.” The N. K. Fairbank company charges that W. L. Henry of Macon, Ga., a dealer in fresh meats and food products generally, has been and is endeavoring unlawfully to avail himself of the benefits of the name “Cottolene’ and its popularity; that he has been and 1s selling a product similar in kind, but inferfor in quality, under the name of “Cottolene” to the injury of the original and genuine “Cottolene,” and to the loss and injury of its manufacturers, the N. K. Fairbank company. The_infringements upon the trade mark of “Cottolene” have become so frequent, and so many dealers are selling an inferior article and claiming it to be Cottolene that the N. K. Fairbank company are deter- mined to protect their customers and pro- pose to sue every retail dealer who is thus imposing upon his customers and infringing upon the N. K. Fairbank company's trade mark.—Telegraph, Macon, Ga. s e NEWSPAPER WOMEN. Party of Them Visit Omaha Enroute East from the Pacific Const.

They are on their way to; Washington from San Fran- cisco, where they have been for the past month taking in the Midwinter fair and the sights along the Pacific coast.

They visited The Bee building and expressed great ad- miration for it. The women said that The Bee was the first metropolitan paper they had been able to procure since leaving San Francisco, and when a newsboy got on_the train they bought all the papers he had. After visiting the city hall they took a light luncheon, and when the 6:30 Northwestern train pulied out they waved Omaha goodbye. Mrs. Mary S.
