then the newspaper business is crippled.
and the newspaper cannot print the sim
pie fact that crime has been committed
without running the risk of being pur-
sued for libel, and hence the liberty of
the press is restricted" We call the at
tention of our contemporaries to the fact
that this expression in which they have
INDUCED implies two things, that they
are prepared to confess that they have
not known that they are liable, and have
been all these years, for libel. for every
fact or statement they have printed of
character defined by the statute to be
libelous. Yet, if they will pause for
moments reflection, they will discover
that they are not prepared to make this
admission; not prepared to say that they
are ignorant of the fact that this is and
all along has been the law; that they are
unprepared to say. therefore, that Judge
Catlin has enunciated any new doctrine,
or that any new assault has been made
upon the liberty of the press. Secondly,
this ''if" implies that newspaper men be-
lieve that they have under law greater
paper men; that they are invested with
the right to say that without being held
responsible, which the citizen not in the
newspaper business is forbidden by the
law Of the land from saying. If such an
idea has taken root among the profession
it is error that should be speedily up
rooted.
And this brings us to the proposition
of our evening contemporary, that the
law of libel should be amended so as to
exempt newspaper proprietorship to
some extent from its penalties. Upon
a word to say, because the proposed
amendment has not been set out, and We
have no information, as yet. as to what
is proposed. 1t will be time enough to
consider such a scheme when it is ad-
vanced. 1t may be of character that
will commend itself and be found
worthy of support. 1t may be of char
acter dangerous to the personal liberty OF
the citizen and the right of the individual
to be protected as we'll from libelous as
from physical assault.
Whatever it is-and we are unable to
divine just what is proposed-the
RECORD UNION will be found treating
it on its merits with the broadest
possible liberty of the press in view,
consistent with human rights and a
republican form of government. It
will be found considering it and giving
it support or condemnation on its merits.
without prejudice or bias in favor of or
against the newspaper or the enemy of
the newspaper. In the meantime we re-
spectfully suggest to our evening contem-
porary that it contain itself. 1t is max
ing itself ridiculous by its ebuliient
abuse of the RECORD UNION, and by its
hysterical manifestations. Neither by
these nor by any similar activities will
the law of libel be modified if modifica-
If they are now wrong in their interpreta-
ton of the law. The newspaper business

the construction of it as given by the

wares before the greatest number of peo-
pie, and this is so far admitted that special
editions of papers which are notoriously
circulated free are availed of as the best
advertising medium. A San Francisco
paper, within year, published an edi-
ton of paper and claimed to have
reached the enormous figure of 100000
copies for that single issue. 1t pretended
to sell and did make counter sales OF
few thousands copies, but for the most
part the advertisers themselves pur-
chased the paper and circulated it free.
1t is common practice on the part of the
best advertisers throughout the country
to secure the publication of special edi-
ton of leading paper. and purchase the
greater part or all of the special edition
and circulate it themselves. This is dis
tinctively free circulation. Every pub
Usher who has at any time published
special edition knows that his main de-
pendence is upon the sales to advertisers,
"4O Al tdA IL 0A POCS W SiASeiA SAO RoPSA
free in the interest of advertising.
The newspaper which one deems of
such value as to justify subscription does
not influence the subscriber by the adver-
tisements it publishes. A Methodist does
not patronize patent medicine because
| it is advertised in the Christian AdUocdte.
A Catholic does not buy land simply be-
cause it has been advertised in the Mon
itor, nor does that fact influence his
choice. A Republican does not consult
the advertising columns of redhot pro-
lection paper in search of dry-goods,
hardware or groceries, and the assump
ton that advertisers select as a medium
of reaching the public papers agreeing
with their own private conclusions as to
politics or religion Is absurd almost to
idiocy. 1t is the testimony of the most
experienced advertisers that circulation
alone is what is sought. There is class
tain classes of paper. There are trades
papers in which advertising is OF more
value than in paper of the largest possi-
BILE circulation.
But space forbids following these mat
ters to their detailed conclusion. The
obvious fact is that the newspapers OF the
largest circulation are most valuable to
the advertiser as medium of communi-
cation between himself and his custom
ers, and there is no gainsaying this un-
tising patronage then, as a general propo-
sition, is put into the hands of papers
having the largest circulation. When a
great newspaper, conforming to all the
standards of daily journalism, has cir
culation of one million copies, it will OBJ
tain a corresponding rate for the space
occupied by the best advertising patron
age in the country, and the inherent ten
dency already manifested of abandoning
the columns of papers of small circula-
ton for those of larger circulation, will
eventually accomplish the perfect work
| of separating journalism in two general
classes-the great purely news paper,
with a vast circulation, and organs of
opinion, patronized by those who sympa-
lished to promote.

THE Law OF LIBEL AGAIN.

Our evening contemporary is il the
acute stage of hysteria concerning the
RECORD UNION, since the latter sees fit to
express the opinion that the law of libel
is what it is-which, by the way, we have
at no time claimed as any evidence of
wisdom. In its rage the evening paper
resorts to the weaponry of the weak, and
indulges in wholesale abuse of this jour-
nal like hysterical scold, the chief of
our offenses being charged to be enmity
to the liberty of the press. This is simply
amusing, nothing more.
The whole matter is in nutshell. Time
was, and over half a century ago, when
the truth was no defense to charge OF
libel The rule was, practically, "the
greater the truth the greater the libel"
With the advance OF the times, the strict
rules regarding libel have been very
| much modified, all in the direction of the
greater liberty of the press.
Every newspaper intelligence in the
business has known all along. and knows
now, that except in the matter of privi-
legged publication, as expressed by the
statute, the man with types, paper and
press has no more right TO utter libel
and be free from responsibility, than mas
| the individual who simply voices libel
upon the street. Every newspaper pro-
prietorship in the United States knows,
and has known all along, that such is the
law; that it has been so uniformly de-
clared and interpreted by the courts.
Every newspaper proprietorship in the
land knows, and has known all along,
| that it publishes every statementi it makes
al risk of procedure against it for libel.
That is one of the incidents, nay. one oi
the essentials of the business, so long as
the law stands as it does.
That is to say. if A libels his neigh.
Dor aud is clearly liable under the law for
the libelous assault, G D who prints the
fact that A B has said thus and so. and
| tueI6Of gives n0N ahu W4uot CuiAOhOy ~
the libel, is equally liable, and cannot
ask to be exempted because he simply re-
peated what A B said. The exception is
when the repetition falls within the privi-
legged clause. The decision in the Gilman
case is not, therefore, anything new. II
is simply enunciation of the law as every
newspaper man must be assumed to have
understood it. Whether the Superior
Court found the facts correctly is another
matter. We have assumed, for the pur-
pose of considering the law as it is, that
the courts finding is correct-no other
assumption would be justifiable. In
deed, our contemporary goes to the ex-
tent after publishing denunciation by
other papers OF the decision. characteriz.

men are able and wide-awake newspaper
men, and the first issue of the Sunday

it all the life, vigor and energy they pos

they are sole owners and that nobody has

is to make it State paper, not confined
