BIAS ON THE BENCH.
By Telegraph.——Copyright.
(Received .January 26, 10 p.m.)
London;, January 26. Referring to the Osborne judgment the Labour party's report complains of the growing habit of judges to display political bias on the Bench.
If the Bench, it says, is to be occupied by political partisans who have neither the self-control nor the common decency to act as judges should, and if the responsible authorities decline to remove judges abusing their position, the law Courts will cease to enjoy deference and respect, and their judgments will fail to carry acquiescence.
