Is there not some business i H man with public spirit enough to enter proceed- J H ings and test the right of Kroeger to sit as a jus- j H tice and levy loot on unfortunates all over the j H country. It is said that it is the habit of that H same so-called justice of the peace to enter'judge. I H ment with a stamp and without any pretence of a jji M trial and then to send officers to bully-rag, Intimi- I jH date and rob the poor by virtue of executions is. fflfl sued on such judgments. If this is true then fll men should appeal to the old law which justifies Ijfl men in defending their property against thieves. 11 Surely the real status of this so-called magistrate H should be established and that without delay. jH |
