CoLoRED EDITORS ON TRIAL.
Charged with LibeIing the Captain of
a CoIored Military Organization.

The Peoples Advocate appeared In the
criminal court yesterday morning, In con-
sequence of an Indictment having been
found against It's proprietors, John w.
Cromwell and Charles A.. Lemon, for libel,
and In which was also included William P.
Gray, lato captain OF Company b, Capital
City Guards. The libel charged was that
Gray wrote an article and the Others pub
lished II. The article stated In effect that
James A. Perry, who succeeded Gray In
command Of the company, had been
elected by eleven members, who went
through the mockery OF an election one
day before the time set for the regular
election; that Perry was expelled from the
Washington Cadet Corps for misappropri-
ating 5000 Of the corps money, and from
the Grand United Order Of Odd Fellows
500. Upon the publication Of this article,
Perry proceeded to have all the parties in
dicted. At the trial yesterday morning the
aiming any Witnesses, as the defendants
admitted the publication Of the article aud
pleaded justification. In proof OF 1t they
produced testimony to show that Perry had
appropriated some forty odd dollars given
him to pay bill due the NATIONAL REPUB.

Philadelphia, for uniforms furnished by
tnem anu 10 pay lOr Wnlcn ferry nau Oeen
given the money. 1t was also shown that
Perry, while chairman of the building COM
mittee Of W. N. Freeman Lodge, In 1888,
used 500 Of the lodge funds without the
knowledge Of the committee and which
came into his hands through the treasurer.
When the matter was discovered by the
lodge, Perry made restitution by giving
four notes covering the amount, but had
paid only two Of them, leaving S54 still due.
He was not tried or expelled from the
lodge, because charges had never been pre-.
ferred against him.
Capt. Gray testified that Perry had secured
the publication Of an article stating that the
witness had been expelled for misappropri
ating the funds Of the company, and his re-
public the character OF the man and MOI
place reliance on his statements In advance
Of an investigation. The trial has not beer
concluded.

The question for you to determine,

enters so largely into every mans
arrangements, viz: THE PRICE.

nopoly of ALL the good things in

dition to our regular" sizes, we

our sizes daily, thereby keeping
our stock bright and fresh.

wholly illegal, is scarcely necessary IN the
light Of the plain reading Of the law, that the
vestryman OF each parish or majority of
those who attend, shall judge OF the election
of vestrymen.
Reviewing, then, our history and experience
under The present rector Of this parish, we find
his administration marked by acts and ovidenc.
ing spirit and disposition that we do not
deem TO require further Characterization than
Is involved IN their mere recital aud mention.
If we have found assertion of prerogitive, in.
sistenoe upon illegal rights maintenance OF
arbitrary and unyielding domination, and even
gross usurpation OF power TO have marked
this administration, rather than the contrary
qualities OF persuasion, appeal TO intrinsic
merits of measures proposed, aud oonsldora-
ton OF the advice and wishes OF what ought to
be the governing body OF the parish as to OBJ.
lects sought, II is bu. natural that we shall
also have found that the possession and
manifestation of these qualities have made
themselves felt in the spiritual ministra-
of tho parish; in the arrest of the parish
growth, and in the stagnatlon OF the parish in
terests. From considerations that must sug.
gest themselves to ALL and mako even this
tardy discharge Of our duty more painful than
| there Is need to say, we have until now en-
| dured and overlooked all that is here suggested
| but in the light Of more recent events and
| feeling that we have at last arrived at point
| at which OUT continued silence could no longer
| command the approval of our conscences as
| II has long ceased to command that OF our
| judgment, we reiterate the declaration OF our
| resolution; "That In the opinion of this vestry
| the interests of the parish will be best sub
| served by a change in It's reotor5hip."
