Businessmen have shirked such responsibilities, leaving an untrammeled field to others less capable of carrying on the administration of government. B. C. Forbes

There is also the conceded authority of courts to punish for contempt when publications directly tend to prevent the proper discharge of judicial functions. Charles Evans Hughes
