1t IL not the province Of the newspaper
nor Of the public to determine the facts in
cases like the one under discussion. nor is

fair and speedy trial. A Jury impaneled
for that purpose must try the case and the
prosecuting attorney of the county is the
proper official to see that the evidence
against the defendant is promptly secured
and presented to the jury.

tirely correct in his assumption that the
defendant is entitled to be released on bail.
