Chesterton on magistrates and suffragette speeches
G. K. Chesterton critiques magistrates who lecture prisoners and argues for respect for courts as engines of justice. He imagines two blunt alternative speeches to Suffragettes and urges punishment or pardon, warning that lecturing guards neither punishment nor reform. The piece criticizes pompous bench rhetoric and favors practical, humane justice.
