TnE libel trouble between our two CochiSe county contemporaries deyel- ops that but few are really coenizant of what are the real rights and duties of newspapers and writers ih such cases Many seem to thinN tA2. the editor has only to have the truth on his slde aud he eau legally publish any thing, aud escape punishment there fer Not so, however. The truth Is frequently libellous, and it's publica- tiOn subject to severe penalties. In all the states the constitutional safe guards thrown around the freedom of speech and liberty ofthe press provide that all shall have the right to publish and utter their sentiments. subject to penalty for abuse of that right, and express provision is made that an edi- tor or publisher may plead in extenua- tion of libel that the subject matter is true published without malice and for public endSs Reflection of the fore going statement will demonstrate to the most casual thinker that to avoid punishment for libel the publisher must stand in court on more proposi- tions than the simple truth of the publication.

A RFoRrrrur MATTER.

lt is with the most profound regret that TIE OASIS learns that the didl- culty between it's two Cochise county contemporaries has resulted in iadict- menu of 5Ig. c. V. Pugh, editor of the Sulphur Valley News, on charge of criminal libel
 It seems that the Tombstone cor respondent of the News took hand
 n the trouble, and in the last issue of that journal he made direct asser- tion with reference to the character of Mir. Bagg that is clearly libellous. When the grand jury was impanelled, last week. the matter was presented to that body, and resulted in the in- iictment of Mr. Pugh, who went over to Tombstone Sunday to answer to the charge Monday his attorney in- terposed demurrer, which was Sus- tained, terminating the case for the present term of court. Whether it will be considered by another grand jury remains to be seen. But, never sheless. it is a very deplorable matter.
 TIE OASIS has observed with no lit- tle regret the growing difficulty be- tween the two journalists who have both worked so energetically and eff fectiyely for the welfare of Cochise rounty and southern Arizona. They are both excellent newspaper men. and the uuSeemly Squabble in which
 hey have engaged has marred the symmetry of their work and the pub lie estimation in which they are held In cases of this kind there are always those who are ready to urge OF news paper in its bitter attacks upon other journals. public men and even against private citizens. Too many who get access to the columns of newspapers mistake the constitutional safeguards thrown around the sacred rights of free press IS simpI q license to assail and libel all they Elay hold grudgcs against. Other without intentional malice, cannot lorego the temptation to indulge in caustic comment and honestly and unwittingly do the journ- al so weak as to give publicity 10 their lucubrations as much harm as the most malicious Too many newspaper men themselges. get the idea that sharp writing, ao matter whom it may hit, is the proper style for ipurn- alistic work, and they load their cul- amns with captions comment abont friends and nelghbors that distributes stings far and wide. and leaves sDres that rankle for years. Because in the great field of national politics metro politan journals attain fame and eel ebrity by printing sharp things Of pnb- lie men and measures, which are us- ually written and taken in d "Pick- wickian scnse," the average cOantfp editor or correspondent thinks he should treat in the same way lecal n,cn and matters. whirh can never be taken in that sense IT. ether words the n ans and methods Of me Tnalisn are ont of place in the coInfY field, and would be "nore honoGea ia the breach than in the observance.
