rux DISTRICT krroENxY's REPLY.
To r. d. MouLroS-DKAn srR: Tho
contents and character Of the publica-
ton relating 10 tho Beschor. Tilton con.
troveny for tho past year have bcen such
that I am inclined 10 think that In case
I am called upon 10 prosecute criminally
every libel which has been Published In
connection with this case, more impor.
tant matters will Of necessity stand over
for the next half century. II Is among
the misfortunes Of civil courts that par
ties may there indulge in all manner OF
quarrsis and exploits. natural or artih-
cia, al their will; but courts OF criminal
jurisdiction are moved only by the peo-
pie and for people Of the State. In this
hot weather. Jail cases, Ike those Of
Loeder and Price. have the preference.
n In REGARDED a. q greater hardship for
parties not yet proven guilty to sweat IN
Raynond street than suffer from libel
GUS publications. Il would afford me
great pleasure to try you for any offsnss
coming within my line Of duties during
the coming months, but 1t Is out Of my
power to indulge you in what you seem
10 regard as Q luxury at the cost Of neg
lsct Of business entitled TO preference.
Later on I may Be able to accommodate
you to your entire satisfaction, and then
You may have reason 10 rejoice that the
ordeal had not taxed your energies and
fortitude during the heated term.
Very respectfully,
tSigned) WIScnEsTEl BARRON.
District Attorney.
