Free dom Of the Press

George William Curtis. in his re-
cent address before the New York
state Press Association, gave the
following interesting account of the
first establishment of the freedom of
the press in this country:
In 1925 the famous printer, William
Bradford. issued the first newspaper
in New York, the New York Gazette.
Favored by the government. it sup.
ported the Governor. But the peO.
pie grew weary Of the endless rapac.
ily of the royal fav0rites who were
sent over to rule them, and in 1872,
when Governor Cosby, to advance Il
suit of his own. removed the Chief
Justice of the province, sneering
that the people were tainted with
" Boston principles" and that he had
great political interest in England to
protect him in anything he chose TO
do. Il storm of popular Indignation
broke upon him in lampoons and bal.
lads and scorching denunciation. The
storm did not blow over. In the
next year. 1888, John Peter Zenger,
who had been Bradford's apprentice
and partner, issued new paper, the
New York Weekly Joanai, rs the ad-
vOcate of the popular opposition. 1t
opened IN inceSsant battery of argu
ment and wit, and raillery and satire
against the governments cannOnade
of hot shot which was music to the
public ear, but warning thunder to
the government and council. After
copies of the paper had been publicly
but vainly burned by their order,
Zenger was arrested and imprisoned
on Il charge of seditious libel. In
jail, where he Fay for nine months,
he still edited his paper. The grand
jury refused TO find an indictment.
but the attorney general filed an in.
formation for malicious and sediti0us
libel, and when Zenger's counsel eX-
cepted to the commissions of two
of the judges rs illegal, the court
struck the names of the counsel from
the list of attorneys. The only other
able lawyer i'm New York had teen
retained by the Governor, and Zenger
was left virtually without counsel.
But Andrew Hamilton, the most
eloquent advocate in Pennsylvania,
and famous through all the colonies,
heard the cry from New York. He
was eighty years old, but age had not
withered him, and born during the
great struggle of the English Com.
monwealth, its principles had been
his natal air, and his heart hea: high
for liberty. He came from Phila.
delphia to New York, and appeared
before the amazed court to plead for
Ienger. With imp,ssioned eloqnencc
Hamilton. who doubtless knew 10y
heart Millions immortal plea for I'm

publication of the articles. "Thrn
