Stead's Conviction,

The Edtor-in-chief of one of the leading
London journals has been convicted in the
Common Law courts of a misdemeanor in
publishing certain matter in his journal, the
Pail Mall Gazette, which the concensus of
public opinion had condemned as I'M
proper to appear in-public print.
In this case the state was the prosecutor,
the crown lawyers made the indictment,
and Mr., Stead, the accused, conducted his
own defense.
For various reasons however, the trial is
a most unsatisfactory one. Mr.. Stead refus-
ed to divulge his authority for some of the
more peculiar assertions that had appeared
in print. The verdict against Mr.. Stead is
therefore only tantamount to conviction
for contempt for court.
We have no precedent therefore for the
point especially looked for, viz; to what ex-
tent journalist is entitled to constitute
himself oonservator Of public morals, and
to what degree and in what manner he may
arm himself and the species of weapon he
may properly make use OF.
These are delicate questions, and it is a
pity that the peculiar incidents of the Lon
don trial did not evolve legal opinion upon
the above points.
In its position as the represen-
tative of public opinion the press
holds a unique status, The press
is a new entity in legal jurisdiction. Being
of such modern birth its rights and linn
its find no exact consideration in the basis
of our laws. The Roman code could not
have taken cognizance of it, consequent
ly neither Norman nor English, nor the
more recent code NAPOLEON, attempt to de-
fine the limit of the powers Of the press.
An unwritten law, however, comedies to
it powers almost imperial. The press has
equal powers and rights with those of the
individual citizen. 1t may criticize and
arraign official and social wrong. No pub
lie records or acts can be Withheld from it's
scrutiny, and above all society itself is amen
able to its arraignment. There is limit
here however as to the rights of the press
in criticizing the acts of private individuals.
The natural objection of the individual him
self and the repugnance of general society
to such scruting has raised the obtructiou
to further pursuit, at this point Anything
wrong however is properly liable to press
comment. In the phase just referred to the
fact or truth of the accusation, available for
substantion when needed must be to hand.
In English law the truth OF the libel or
fact of ability to substaniate it, is
no defense in an action for libel in the
English courts. The theory is that the
public has nothing to do with domestic or
private wrongs. Mr.. Stead's case he refls-
ed to give his authority for the assertions
in the Pail Hall Gazette. His conviction was
a foregone conclusion despite the really de-
sirable and moral ends he claimed to have in
view.
His sentence is three months in jail
without hard labor"

Fiat ,iustitia ruat Coelum

While Ward is languishing iu felon's
cell, It is pertinent to ask by what rule of
equity is his pareiner-Fred Grant-airing
himself on Fifth Avenue? Ward and Grant
constituted the combination by which the
unsuspecting and over confident were robbed
of seventeen millions of dollars, and to
deny Grants completely, is but to admit his
imbecility.
A mawkish sentimentality has environed
Grant, but his partner, Ward, who was
neither more nor less guilty than Fred Grant
is debarred his freedom.
If Wards colleague had been christen ed
Brown or Jones, he too would have been
shut from the light of the day, and it is sim.
ply burlesque upon justice that Colonel
Fred Grant has not been called upon to face
the responsibilities of his monumental steal
ings.
No one presumes to question the right
eousness of the verdict which was rendered
againt Ward, but to make fish of one and
fowl of the other is neither good law nor
good morals. Fiat justiatta ruat coeEam.

Communicated.

To the Wilmingtonian.
Having noted with pleasure the consistent
ly independent course of the WILLMINeToN-
IAN crave your indulgence In expressing
my views upon the Gubernatorial contest of
the coming year. The dissensions which
now promise distraction to the democracy
are happily absent in the republican ranks
and if the republican party 10 wise unto its
day, its opportunities and its possibilities, it
will name for its standard bearer one who
commands the respect and the confidence of
of every voter in the State of Delaware.
In an able an exhaustive article upon "the
next Campaign" the Daily Republican
said that
"Material aid may be expected from the
action of honest Democrats, who will have
come to the conclusion that political revolu-
tion is needed in Delaware. We believe
there are more Democrats now of this way
of thinking then there have been in the past
for many years"
In order that there shall be full fruition
Of the RepuJlican's prophecy there must be
no mistakes in naming those who are to go
before the people for their s,iffrages.
Who should be our Gubernational candi-
date? A canvass among all conditions of
society forces the conviction that Mr.. Joseph
Pyle, of the Patent Leather Manufacturers
Messrs. c. & ]. Pyle, is one of the strongest
candidates who could possibly be named
for that honored office. Mr.. Pyle owes his
business success wholly and solely to his
energy, his industry and personal integrity.
Having worked at his trade as a morocco
currier, he appreciates and realizes the posi-
tion of the workingman and his great big
heart is touched with the sorrows and in
firmities of his fellow man. During the
distressing business depression of the past
two years Mr.. Pyle has manfully protested
against cutting the wages of his assistant
laborers. His theory was, and still is, that
the laborer is worthy of his hire, and he in
sisted that it was better to cut down the
profits of the firm rather than cripple the
families of their workmen.
1t is written "by their works shall ye
know them" and judged by this standard
Joseph Pyle stands prinsuS inter pares.-
Aaabasis.

Office Seeking Hereditary.

There may have been time when Bay
one, but history has failed to designate
such an event.
The latest candidate for "ofice pap"
from the house of Bayard is James A, the
second.
No one at. all acquainted W it'll this
young scion of the Bayard progeny
geny would suspect for a moment that the
question of fitness could have entered int o
the matter of the appointment.
Mr.. James A. Bayard is negative in every
thing save his name and had he not
been the son of T. F, Bayard, his appoint
ment, as Secretary of Arizona, would never
have been seriously considered.
Although Hon. Thomas F. Bayard when
delivering an eulogy upon Thomas
Jefferson last summer, displayed lamentable
ignorance of his grandfather by making it
appear that he (James Bayard) by his self
sacrificing patriotism saved his covntry
from anarchy by giving the casting vote for
Thomas jefferson when as matter of his
tory the said Bayard steadfastly supported
the candidacy of Aaron Burr until Burr's
chances were a forlorn hope, yet the one
fact remains patent that the name of Bay
ard is synonymous with that of office seek
ing and Office holding. Senator Bayard's
planning and piping for the presidential
nominations in 1876 80, & s4 are too we'll
known to warrant recapitulation and as the
signs of the times indicate that the days of
the Bayards are numbered in Delaware, the
Secretary of State has invoked the national
government to give the Bayard family new
stallat the public crib. Senator Bayard
denounced Gen. Grant and claimed that he
committed the objectionable sin when he ap-
pointed his brother-in-law to position in
the federal government; but what was nep-
otisn in a republican is a virtue when
prat tised by Hon Thomas F. Bayard.

The Pope's Encycli cal.

The Pope's Encyclical of November 1st,
1885 will invite more criticism and will in
yoke m ore opposition in the United States
than any other paper ever issued from the
head of the Roman Church.
In this there is an avowed antagonism
between the church and state, politics and
religion will not mix and furthermore they
can not be made to harmonize.
Our people of all creeds were becoming
more liberal and it is a matter of regret
that an edict from Italy will tend to re-agi-
tate question which was gradually reach
ing It's legitimate solution.
The New York Times in referring to this
matter states
SIN no country on earth will the Pope's
encyclical of November 1, entitled De CIgi-
tatuna Gu5e'n natione Otristiand, be read with
more profound attention than in the United
States of America. There is no other count
ry to which its precepts SO expressly apply,
no other whose conditions and promise,
from the Romsh point of view, could have
been so constantly and vividly present to the
mind of the Pope as he shaped the pregnant
sentences to this letter of guidance for the
prelates of the Church. 1t transcends in
importance all previous utterances of Leo
XIII, ,aud in the vital interest it possesses for
citizens of this Republic it surpasses by far
the decree of 1870 affirming the dogma of
Papal infallibility.
We subjoin an extract from the telegraph
ed translation of the encyclical
"Every Catholic should rigidly adhere to
the teachings of the Roman pontiffs, espec-
tally in the matter of modern liberty, which
already, under the semblance of honesty Of
purpose, leads to error and destruction. We
exhort all Catholics who would devote care
full attention to public matters to take an
active part in all municipal affairs and cleo
tions, and to further the principles of the
Church in all public services, meetings and
gatherings. All Catholics must make them
selves felt as active elements in daily politi-
cal life in the countries where they live.
They must penetrate wherever possible in
the administration of civil affairs; must
constantly exert the utmost vigilance and
energy to prevent the usages of liberty from
going beyond the limits fixed by Gods law.
All Catholics should do in all their power to
cause the constitutions of states and legisla-
tion to be modelled in the principles of the
true Church. All Catholic writers and journ-
alists should never lose for an instant from
view the above prescriptions.
| There can be no doubt that the Roman
Catholics in the Republic, as Roman Catho-
lies, will be alert and active to carry out to
the letter the command of the head of the
Church, "to penetrate wherever possible in
the administration of civil affairs We
shall note with interest the effect of this re-

The Coming Campaign.

e In the early part of the New Year the
Campaign for 1886 will be duly opened; and
even at this day the prospects of certain can
didates are being seriously discussed. In
tion from well known citizen who presents
some strong and cogent reasons why Mr..
Joseph Pyle would be a most formidable
candidate for Gubernational honors in op-
position to the democratic nominee. By
the unwritten law the candidates Of the re-
speotive parties are entitled to be named by
New Castle County and it must be conceded
that Mr.. Pyle's candidacy would present
many strong features.
In his boyhood days Joseph Pyle came to
Wilmington and at once became indentured
as a leather currier. By frugalty,
industry and honesty of purpose he won
the esteem of his employers and was, soon
after the termination of his apprenticeship,
admitted to partnership in the firm with
which he learned his trade.
Mr.. Pyle early identified himself with the
chnrch of his choice and his labor in the
vineyard of his Master has been earnest,
fearless and conscientious. The religion of
of Mr.. Pyle has been one of practice rather
than of pretention and we personally know
of scores and SC ores of young men that he
has taken by the hand and by wise counsels
has encouraged them to higher and nobler
living. The poor, the bereaved, the sick and
afflicted have in him FRIEND counsellor and
comforter.
Joseph Pyle is good mamie is natures
nobleman and his candidacy for the Cover
norship would serve notice upon the Demo-
cracy that its only hopes of success would
lie in naming candidate equally ire
proachable in manners, methods and NOR
ais.
In 1858 Mr.. Pyle reluctantly consented to
accept seat in the Council Chamber and
to this day the older members of this COM
munity speak with pride of the record the
young councilman made for honest and econ
omical government.
Councilman Pyle was an uncompromising
foe to corruption and debauchment of
public morals, and he did not hesitate to re-
buke his own party when transcending the
bounds of its legitimate duties.
Joseph Pyle as Gubernatorial candidate
would be strong with law abiding citizens
would be strong with the temperance peo-
ple-would be strong with the laboring inter
-,5es. - would be s'Tng with the business ele-

Go West! Young Man.

Mr.. Bayard has got his son James A. Bay
ard good position. He has had him ap-
pointed secretary of the territory of Arizona.
It is, doubtless, good point to train en-
bryo politicians. The berth is a lucrative
one but hardly likely to tax the brain ca
pacity Of scion of the house OF Bayard.
He will grow up with the territory, and, as
it emerges by and by as full-fedged state
we expect to see, as does Thomas F. Bay-
ard, this son of his father appear as a lead
ing light of the new State of Arizona.
We sincerely hope, however that that
naughty class of Western people the COW
boys of Arizona, the most piquant of the
genus homo, on the Western frontiers, will
not influence our young Delawarean. He
may be susceptible to their wiles. They
are an attrictive kind of people to any who
are at all inclined that way, and they arc so
very hospitable Hereditary honors do not
stand in their way. They know no aristo-
cracy and recognize none but themselves and
the whiskey bottle.

Unity Club Lecture.

The opening lecture of the popular lecture
course of the Unity Club will be given on
December 8, by the Rev. Robert Collier, of
New York.
The subject has not as yet been chosen
but will no doubt be characteristic of the
well-known lecturers style. Mr.. Coll ier in
early life, among his north Of England fell
low oountrymen, was known as the "black-
smith preacher" When he came of age he
emigrated to this country. This occur red
about forty years ago. At that time he was
connected with the Methodist or more ex-
actly, class of them known as the Ad-
yanced Methodists. He was noted for his
powers in exhorting. He had a peculiar
faculty for making stirring addresses at the
meetings. On one occasion a Philadelphia
gentleman heard him and advised his enter
ing the minestry. Young Robert Collier
acted on the suggestion, went toa Seminary
in Philadelphia where he uncertook
preparatory course. Meanwhile he
carried on his trade as means of
support and to defray cost of lec-
lures. After some time he was sent under
the auspices of the Unitarian Society to
Chicago as one of their missionaries. Even
at that early date he achieved prominence as
an extempore speaker and became known as
the 'Beeoher of the northwest" He
gradually worked up congregation, built
church and settled in Chicago as the pas
tor Of the Unity in that city. He remained
there as pastor for quarter of century.
From thence he was lately called to the
church of the Messiah, New York City,
which pastorate he now holds.
In January the Rev. ]. M. Savage, of Bos-
ton will lecture here. 1t is intended to Sc
cure the services of three or four other lead
ing speakers of the Unity Clubs course the
coming season. The course will be little
more pronounced than before in the direc-
tion Of calling outside lecturers.
Address upon the subjects of Health and
Habits, Great outlines of Religious History,
and other opportune topics will be made by
DIR. H. r. Wilson. The course will contin-
ue for five months, lectures each Wednes-
day evening.
1t is the desire TO make the lecture course
as interesting as can be, more SO if possible,
than last season. DIR. Wilson intends shar-
ing no paips to this end.
