'Well, the. grand jur-y took the words of Goldberge forj what they were worth-and no more!1 Which waa perfect- ly proper. _________ Poor Goldiierg 1 yen, we say it because we pity iim 1 Ris case reminda us of the. tale of the menkey who uaed the cat's paws to pull hot coala from the. fire. It just goes to show that Welch WAS ini earnest wiien he prosecuted Philip Goldberg ithe. liquor case in Cir- cuit court recently-and got a conviction.a And w, presume tiiere are nmre disappoited creatures who will say that that grand jury lad a certýin portion ofr "nif raf" lon it. WeU be it sol - They ddn't "get" "iJlm" Welcii, after all, did tiiey? Even tiiough they tried i sucii a dirty and niealey man- ner! It jiut skows that EIGHT will prevail if given half a chance. People, whose busiess takes them aboùt the. courtt bouse during the. session of the grand jury whlch closed Tuesday decare -that Goldberg wore a path across the grQufld between the court houae and- a former coiinty ofli- cial's office. Wiiy? Ten chances to one the Guzette this evening will say: "IWelch wus wiitewasbed"l by the. jury. That'a what they alwrays say wh.n their desires in such niatters as Mr. Welch's, Dr. Brown's and otiiers are flot consumniated- "'Notwithstandiflgs ail the. Goldberg faply hau said, we don't believe 'Jim' Welch waa crooked, but we DO be- lieve that you've been lylng," sald the. grand jury to the. Goldiiergs of Highland Park viien tiiey reached the ver- dict exonerating Mr. Welchi. It seemed too bad that, after the Vgand juries of Lake county have so frequently been used lpthe past to satisfy personai grudges, that any clique of mun should again have tried to use the. jury this year i an attempt to, "get" a ceuanty office holder. The. outcome, however, shows that a jury cannot ALWAYS b. used in tus manner. Just because six of the 23 grand jurons were nt i favor of returning a no-true büll i the Welcii matter ian n aigu that even they conidered Mi. Welch guilty-thoe six men merely assumed the position tiiat THEY WERE WILLING to believe thé. Goldberg tory lu-so-far as te LÂTER permit a jury of 12 men te Ulsten te actual evi- dence on BOTH sides. But, the. 17 didn't conaider the. Goldberga' testlnony under oath even wortii the trouble of later corroborationi and refutation bof ors a Circuit court jury. ___ THE GRAND JURY ACTION. Lake çounty people as a whoe are elated to think that the evidence presented against State's Attorney James G. Welch by the Goldiiergs of Highland Park wua not deemed reliable by the grand jury which fêturned a &ld- ing exonerating Mr. Welch. No fair minded citizen be- lieved they WOULD accept the. charges as founded on truths.f The grand jury, comprioed of honest men, was unwill- ing to play the- part of conjurr and twist the facts te suit the depires of a man and a clique who stood on a founda- tien built of intrigue and venom. The. grand jury was broad enough ta insist on ii.aring certain evidence other thau that subritted by tue "cosnplainant"' whose reason for possesSing animnus was clearly apparentto 17 of the. 23 men.1 Their action' was a fine vindication for State 's Attorney Welch, especially ini view of' the fact that he himself did flot appear bef or. the. grand jury to present bis aide of the, case..- the jury evidently didn't feel it necessary to hear -what he had to say in hua defenae. But, a vindication -with- out hearing hua defense is ail the nmore appreciable by hlm and his friends. Tii. whole procedure, instituted by a clique in iiopes of undermining the character of a nsw leader i Lake county politics, inspired by the. one hope of dJscrediting hlm for- ever iu the couty whicli had but recently honored 'him, conceived in tue minda of men who cannot reconcile them- selves te tthe fact-that the. peopls of the. county repudiated their metiiodd and encouragd i its sývery move by moen whose desire for revenge oversiiadowed their duty as citi- zens, thia whole action against Mr.<Welcii lualps into his- tory as the most repreliensuble plece cf dirty politics that was ever enacted lu Lmake county.1 Even great Cook ceunty with its multitude of nefarlous political plots, evenb Tammy Hal of NswYork-even those centera cf political chicanery nover produced anything more coutemptible andmeaîiey tuaü this atteli2pt te " get" 11Jim"1 Welcii who todày stands out preeminsntly as tiie untarnisiied prosecutor of the county, a man %rhose repu- tation was assaily only by a nman and uis sons wiic have been in court mors tban afiy ether family in the coun- ty; a famUly whose neighbors would not tale tuer worde for anytilg even se uniportait as tusth ownershuî> of a cat, a crowd of diareputable citizens iiose city-Highlanc Park-would 1k., if possible, to drive theni from it bound-these were the nmen who sougbt te boesuwrch Mr Welcii.
