JOHNSTON vS. MORRISON.
S1O,OOO Suit for Damages,


 Our readers may remember ar article entitled "Run by Ring published in the Daily Citizen ot Albuquerque, on the 17th day o1 November. 1887. in which Spec ial Writer" after generally denoun- cling the county officials of this county, and openly charging the District Attorney of Apache coun- ty with all manner of dishonesty and corruption in office, proceeded to charge, by insinuation and in uendo, that T. w. Johnston, Esq, brother-in-law of the District At torney, by virtue of his relation ship, was able to "cOmprOmise' criminal cases with the public pros ecutor, when other lawyers failed. The Especial Writer" said in that article, what was tantamount to this: that all criminal with des- perate case had to do, 10 be re- leased, was to employ Mir. John ston, and that he could and would corruptly bribe the District Attor- ney to settle the case. The article gave three instances in which, it alleged, that Mr, Johnston had, by unprofessional and dishonorable means persuaded the District At torney to be recreant to his trust. Of course, if the statements in the lrticic are true, the District Attor- ney is corrupt and Mr, Johnston, though a private individual, is, if possible, worse. We stated at the time, that we supposed time of reckoning would come. It seems that the opportunity is fast ap- preaching. MT. Johnston, after much delay and considerable cor 'respondence, was able t0 get the name of the author, and he, on the third instant instituted, by his at torney a suit for $10,000 damages agalnst Robert Emmet Morrison, as the author of the libel. Mir. Morrison will have an opportunity in February to prove the truth of his assertions, and explain the mo- tives which prompted the compost tiOn and publication of the article. If the article should prove to be false, slanderous and libellous, and the motive which prompted its pub lication, malicious, as we believe will be the case, then Mr. Morrison will learn the price at which a pri- -vate citizens good name and fair fame is estimated by an impartial jury.
