Should Face the Music.

From the New York Evening Post.
The editor of the Sun treats the public
again today to column and half of the
opinions of rural editors touching his pro-
posed deportation for trial to Washing
ton. They of course all disapprove of 1t,
and take his view, that it would be a cruel
outrage. Now, we will take the liberty of
suggesting to him that he should drop this
wretched business of trying to influence
the court through quotations from coun-
try publcists 1t shows that he is very
much afraid. when there is really nothing
to be afraid of. If he is wise he will waive
all objections, go down to Washington, and
stand his trial like a man before jury of
his countrymen, in the capital of his coun-
try. He has no reason TO distrust a Wash
ington jury. Washington jures are more
respectable and impartial than those of
New York. He will be much better off
there than Mr.. Noyes would be here. This,
too, is a good time of the year to be tried
In Washington. The city is at it's best,
and the temperature is delicious and the
inhabitants in good humor. The old gen.
tleman should therefore take his courage
in both hands. and face the music. If he
does, bowls of admiration will go up from
the country editors.

A Resort.tO Technfcalfties.
rom the Camden On j. Telegram.

From the Camden On. j. Telegram.
The Indictment in this case was secured
in Washington, which is in strict compli-
ance with the law, but when the editor of
the Sun is called upon to face jury of his
peers In the manner prescribed by law, he
endeavors to evade 1t by resorting to
special pleading and taking refuge behind
technicalty. For years Mr.. Dana has
roamed at large in a wide field of personal
of school that has reflected credit neither
upon himself nor his imtators, and every
time the law has been invoked against him
he has escaped by the doubtful plea of
technicality. Whether the law providing
for the trial Of the case in Washington is
right wrong, it is the law, Mr.. Dana
knew 1t to be the law, and the fact that he
is the editor of leading newspaper does
not privilege him to evade responsibility
that others could not escape. If a certain
distinguished gentleman known as BOSS"
ner ar1 made similar plea, 1t is barely
possib-~ that the Hoboken News would
have remarked that "a rogue ne'er felt the
halter draw, with good opinion of the
law An editor should not counsel others
to obey the law and then arrogate to HIM
self the privilege Of defying. The Sun,
moreover, has an editorial and business
office in Westinghouse is part of its home,
and no one doubts but that it's editor would
get n fair trial there, If that is what he
wants. 1t is clearly the duty of Editor
and where the law provides that it should
be met, and then and there make his
charges good or have the manliness to re-
tract them.

THE DANA LIBEL CASE
Some of the Points at Issue Discussed by
Editors.
An Evident Desire to Avoid Facing
the Music-The Place
Of Trial.
The District Unique.

From the Wheeling wv. Va.) Intelligencer.
There is good deal of discussion of the
Indictment in the District of Columbia of
Mr.. Dana and Mr.. Laffan of the New York
Sun for publishing a libel against Mr..
Noyes of The Washington Star. Some of
the opinions seem to come more from bias
in favor of the indicted newspaper men
than from information with regard to the
situation and a careful consideration of all
the facts.
To get at once to the milk in the cocoa
nut, the District of Columbia is an unique
patch Of ground in the United States of
America. Not only are citizens residing
there deprived of the electoral franchise in
respect of national affairs, but they have
no right Of local self-government
A territory fas its territorial legislature
and its cities have their local legislative
bodies, but for the District of Columbia
Congress makes all the laws, and they are
executed by Commissioners appointed by
the President. The judges are appointed
for life by the President, with the advice
and consent Of the Senate. Under de-
cision of the Supreme Court citizen of
the District of Columbia cannot go into
the federal courts elsewhere to bring a
suit against citizen of a state.
The situation is just as unique with re-
gard to libel, which in the District of Co.
lumbia alone is made an offense against
the United States. Since the New York
Sun cfrculates in Washington, the prosecu-
Iioii HaS peeH uIiuerlaken tnere by the gov
eminent of the United States. If, there
fore. 1T be held that the indicted persons
can be brought to Washington for trial, it
by no means follows that another person
living in New York or Boston may be
dragged" to Galveston or San Francisco
to answer an Indictment for libel
Many considerations collateral to the
present case are under more or less ami
mated discussion, but the vital point is
whether the courts of the District of
Columbia have the jurisdiction they are
supposed to have. If they have, Mr.. Dana
