INDICTMENTS FOR LIBEL

There is disposition in some quar-
ters to kick against the indictments
for libel found by the Kinds aud War
ren county grand juries. This is
wrong. The time has come when the
question involved in these libel suits
should be settled. Then again, legal
prosecution is preferable to assassina-
ton or a street rencounter where both
partiss get killed.
Yes, the libel suit representa- long
ride forward in civilization.
Again, these suits will serve to show
whether a free press is possibility
under political Oligarchy. If these
indicted gentlemen are convicted, it
will serve notice on the press at large
that the doings of any member of the
regnant oligarchy are sacred and must
not be prOfaned by exposing what Is
criminal, corrupt or questionable. It
is well for these things to he settled.
| Suspense Is bad. If it be a crime TO
call murder by its proper name, let
the press know it, 50 il can speak of
the suicide of the deceased Let all
censure be directed against the man
who Is so unfortunate as TO be dead.
To reset an old saw, dead men bring
no libel suits.
There is on the statute books law
against libel. Let the courts by en-
forcing il cOnstrus it, Let it be de-
cided once for all whether the editor
who tells the truth. shall be bounded
down and punished. 1t is time we
were knowing whether the old spirit
of boot-licking aud iunkyism which
crystalized in the legal axiom, ''The
king can do no wrong has been reyiv-
ed in commonwealth of foemen to
protect an embecile administration
and its corrupt associates,
Whore an editor, willfuIly and ma
liciously libels any man, he be high or

RATHER A HEROIC COURsE.
from The Boston Post

From The Boston Post
l heard the other day authentic story of some
thing happened here in Boston, which recalls an
incident in one of Balsac's novels and tends To
support the Old saying about truth and fiction. IL
, that the vile o. young man who has little
house Of his somewhere In the ouuyl districts,
but whose salary is very small fell Ill, and was UNI
able 10 leave her room for several months. The
doctor, a. often happens, prescribed great many
water and champagne which, being very expensive.
were far beyond the young husbands means. What
could be done He was bound that his wife should
have everything which the doctor ordered, and his
purse having been empted. he stole out one evening
with the parlor clock under his and returned
with a iyedOllar bill large easy chair eX-
pended days later for few bottles OF port wine.
and, to cut the story short by the time the young
woman was able to 20 down stairs, the rooms the
first floor had been stripped OF their contents TO pay
The grocer and the apothecary.
II must have been bitter moment for the poor
young wife when she first what havoc had been
wrought In her drawing room, and dare say that
for a few minutes az least her good man felt that
he had been too clever by half II must be acknOw-
lodged, however, that he acted pretty wisely. Health
is more important than furniture, and In time the
household goods viii be replaced. The plan which
this enierprsing fellow pursued was surely better
than that OF helping himself out OF his masters cash
box, and perhaps It preferable to the ordinary
course Of running into debt; certainly It was more

AGGRESSIVE LITTLE TURTLES

While the five year-od Of John Y. W. Purcell

sustained several bites from the hitherto
sidered nofenslve reptiles. No cause Is known for
the attack, and I'm that section IS entirely unprcce
dcnted. 1t seems the first warning the little fellow
had general gathering of the turtles around him,
