In regard to false reports circulated

correct statement: After the men,
bers Of the dramatic club had shown
their public spirit by presenting two
successful plays in order to raise the
necessary funds 10 pay FOR the repairs
made on the stage (about S90)it was
thought quite appropriate that piano
be procured and placed in the hall
as a further improvement, "a subscrip
ton paper was circulated and S26
raised. An Estey piano was pur-
chased for which we agreed TO pay
500. voluntarily giving our own per
sonal note for that amount TO be paid

purchase. Since the above date we

NEWSPAPER LIBEL.

A suit for libel, in which the de- fendant was charged with having accused 0 police officer of levying political assessments, was tried in Harrisburg, Pa, last week. After hearing the testimony in the case, the Court instructed the jury to acquit. The Judges charge is interesting and corrects erroneous opinions held by many persons, and even by court functionaries, of the liability and lim- itation of newspaper criticism.
 The Pennsylvania Judge said: "A libel consists in publishing a false story which was inspired by malice, With regard to criticising public serv- ants, the matter is somewhat different.
 "The public press shall be free to every person in referring to public officials and other public matters. Public officials can be more freely criticised than a private individual. When an article is published, although not true. if published for the benefit of the public good and without malice, the publisher Is not responsible.
 The Court said the newspaper article was a privileged one, because it was about public officer, as are all similar articles in criticising the acts of public officials. The only matter for the jury l to determine was whether the publica- ton was made in malicious or negl- gent manner.
 'It is the duty of a publisher, con tinued the Judge, ''to note the doings of public officials. If he be told of a certain public matter by reputable person, whom he considers in & position to know of what he speaks, hs is iusti- fled in such publication"
 The freedom of the press was asserted in the first amendment of the Constitu- ton of the United States, and the same declaration is contained in the Consti- tuition of each of the several States. Of course, there is distinction be- tween liberty and license, and it is an undeniable fact there are frequent abuses of the liberty granted.
 Frederick Hudson, in his Journal ism of the United States" favors a national law of libel that will clearly define libel and benefit alike the press and the public. This, however, would require an amendment to the Consti- tuition. It is admitted that some re- straint shouldbe placed upon the press, but there is greater danger of too much than too little restraint.
 The acts of public officers are 8 proper subject of criticism, from which judges, when off the bench, are not exempt Public officials are public servants, and, like Csesar's wife, should be above suspicion, and accusations lacking the essential of truth seldom do serious injury to cause or reputation, and retraction, promptly made and given the same publicity as the imputa- tion, should be sufficient apology for the offense.

ARIZONA MUST WATT.


 The announcement that Statehood will be denied Arizona by the present Congress will not be great disap- pointment to the substantial citizens of Arizona. While the telegram attributes this decision of Speaker Reed and his supporters in Congress to their determination to prevent any increase of representation in Congress from sections favoring silver, it is evi- dent that the admission of Arizona and New Mexico would not effect any decisive change in Congress on the sill yer question. There is now safe majority in the Senate in favor of the free coinage of silver, while the House and the President are unalterably opposed to the remonetization of the white metal. Arizona can we'll wait for the palladium of sovereignty until her finances and population justify her assuming the greater responsibilities of Statehood.

DEAR SIRS: Our exhibition of the
New Disc Pillow in broom corn at this
place today was not only success but
a complete surprise to all the farmers
present, and was an agreeable surprise
to myself in that sort of work. [ talked
with every farmer at the exhibition
and the majority of them said the pillow
was worth all it cost just to rlow
broom corn. Just think how absurd it
would be to try to pillow in heavy broom
corn without breaking or raking and
burning the stalks, but the Disc Pillow
will lit, and do it we'll. From what l
have seen of this pillow 1 think it is the
only pillow, for broom corn, at least
Yours truly,
