Justice Blind

By Editor

THE following, which we clip from an Eastern paper, presents the matter about as it generally stands nowadays:—

“Cashier Gould, of the First National Bank, Portland, Me., got seven years in prison for stealing $260,000, largely the property of widows and orphans. Two colored men in Baltimore got ten years for stealing a watch which they pawned for eight dollars. The judge shed tears in sentencing Gould, but there were no tears shed over the negroes. The world has well represented its justice as blind.”
