The Logic Of The London Stipendiary Poli...
The logic of the London stipendiary police magistrate is usually forcible , and his law is seldom called in questionso that when one of these functionaries the other day gave judgment
on a complaint made to , him on a subject which has been frequently discussed in publishing circles the conclusion at which he arrived is likely to have some interest for our readers . Jn
