Show Rhetoric-It Rhetoric-It is thought, thai the object of Judge Boreman in telling the news- 1 paper reporters wno wantcu copies oi ! his contempt opinion, to write it from I his lipe, was to cripple the scribblers and unfit them for further usefulness. Reporting after the judge on that occasion would have been something like riding a saw-buck on & worm fence. The judge would butt against a corner, back out, take a fresh start and tear away like greased lightning, off on a tangent, and then stumble over a corduroy road, grasping frantically fran-tically for something on which lo ; hold. Then he would apparently forget for-get where he was going, and gazing around for a sign board, the chances were that he would go ofl on a side j path and have to feel his way in the I dark. The judge probably thought he could inveigle the reporters into following him, and when he got the scribblers irtto breakneck speed, would drive into one of hia corners or perhaps per-haps strike his hobbledehoy gait, and there would be a sudden crash and I the Faber shovers would havo to bo swept up. |
