THE LIBERTY LEAGUE.
An Organization That Opposes the Eiecs
ton to ONCE of Extremists.

An Organization That Opposes the E1ecs
ton to Ofhce of Extremists.
Londoners and New Yorkers. who have
long been afflicted with societies foP the
prevention of his, that and the other, on
organizations for the promotion of fads Of
every description, should take example
from certain Of the residents OF New Zea-
land, the land Of advanced ideas These
residents arrived at the conclusion that
civilization was advancing with too rapid
strides in New Zealand and that individu-
al rights and liberties were being trodden
under foot by faddists.
They accordingly formed an organiza.
tion named the Liberty league, the mem
bers of which are pledged to oppose any
person who stands for election who Is an
extremist upon any subject injuriously af-
fecting the rights of citizens, and to con.
serve what remains of individual liberty,
and to win back the rights of which the
people have been robbed by predatory en-
actments.
Some time ago total prohibition of the
liquor traffic was enforced in certain parts
of the country, with the result as borne
out by high church dignitaries, that these
districts are now noted for drunkenness.
Notwithstanding this fact, the prohibit
tionists are determined TO force their ideas
upon the whole colony. One of the objects
of the Liberty league is TO resist by every
constitutional means the attempts OF the
prohibitionists TO stop the manufacture,
sale, importation or use Of liquor in the
colony
In the recent elections for members Of
the house Of representatives the league
worked strenuously against the prohibi.
tion candidates, with the result that they
were everywhere defeated. 1t is hoped
that henceforth the socialistic legislation
of the New Zealand parliament will be
checked through the influence Of the
leaguers, who include some of the most
prominent men Of the oountry.-Nev
York Sun.

Points to Bs Argued by Counsel Fer
Thomas Bran.


Boston, Jan. 20.-The United States
circuit court w'il, today. hear the ex-
ceptions argued in the Thomas Bran
trial. 1t is expected that the arguments
will not be finished until Thursday.
Bran has three chances for a new
trial. The judges may decide to grant
his counsers motion. IL IL is refused,
counsel may carry the case TO the su-
preme court; il this decision is adverse.
there yet remains the decision of the su-
preme court on the exceptions.
Prejudgment is alleged on the part or
two of the Jurors.
Tampering with the jury and miscon-
duct on the part of the jury are charged.
Affidavits have been filed. and testi-
mony will be produced, alleging that Ju-
ror Briggs of Cambridge was prejudiced
in the case; that he had formed an opin-
ion. and that, before he had been called
to the jury, he had expressed an opinion
that Bran was guilty.
Mr.. Briggs made the Statement after
the trial that he had made up his mind
that Bran was guilty week before the
case was given TO the jury.
Testimony will be introduced in re-
gard to Juror Ford Of Hyde Park, ii be-
ing alleged that previous TO his serving
on the jury he had said that, in his opin-
ion, Bran was guilty, and ought to be
hanged.
The defense Will argue that the jury
was not kept secluded after they had
been given the case, inasmuch as four
persons entered the jury room and
mingled with the jury for half an hour
The argument is based on the statement
that on the Friday night that the jury
was given the case, Deputy Frank Nc
Donald. Baillffs McConage and Rhul
were in the jury room and ate supper
with the jury, as well as the caterer
from the Quincy house.
Another point will be raised in regard
TO the note which Juror Booth said was
introduced into the jury room by Mr..
Harrington. Offering him liquor.
Another point that will be raised Is
that Mr.. Hoar argued on matters that
were not in evidence.
