FOUNTAINS OF JUSTICE
LORD CHANCELLOR’S COMMENTS. Press Association—By Telegraph-Copyright. LONDON. April 21. Regarding the criticism of the recent incident in Norfolk when a Labor magistrate attended the North Walsingham Sessions to adjudicate on the farm strike cases, the Lord Chancellor points out that only the most exceptional circumstances would justify such a course. Suspicions might he engendered in the public mind that a magistrate so attending was influenced by some interest or prejudice, and doubts of tho impartiality of his judgments might thereby he aroused. Apart from this, magistrates might sit outside their own districts.—A. and N.Z, Cable.
