TO Audrey Johnson on the occasion
above referred to. He had right to
speak, hpt that right did not make it
incumbent upon others TO listen He
wanted to speak his piece, but the loyaI
portion of the crowd did not want TO
hear il, and refused 70 listen 70 him.
When he attempted to exercise the
right Of free speech. the crowd procee-
ded to doithe same thing.fn' 9i ''t u1l
at'Andywas speaking and 80 was the
crowd. yu What better right had heTto
make his s,speech than they had to make
theirs2 If Mr.. Johnson could not
make himself heard, it was his misfor-
tune that so many desired to speak at
once, Had any personal violence been
offered to hlm to prevent, him from
speaking, the case would have been
different; but thcrc were no violent
manifestations Of physical character
toward him. The only manifestations
were free and unrestrained exercise
Of the organs Of speech, which, accord
ing to Democratic authority, as entire
ly and perfectly Constitutional. And
and the crowd were engaged in a run.
ming debate, in which the chief point
to be determined was, who was entitled
to the floor, Andy insisted on, speak
ing, and all the other speakers seemed
equally anxious to obtain a hearing.
The whole transaction was practical
enforcement Of the doctrine of free
speech, without regard to race or color
and the only question is, under the
circumstances, whether it would not
have been more appropriate for Mr..
A.Johnson to have deferred speaking
his piece until some more auspcious
occasion. l.f d.
