THE DEFENSE OPENS
Testimony Introduced Yesterday to Show
l. Absence Of Malice.


Absence Of Malice.
| Evidence for the defense, in an attempt
| to prove the absence of malice, was pre-
sented yesterday afternoon When the
session opened, A. B. Jackson, on behalf
| Of the defense, moved for q dismissal.
| Quoting authorities. he contended that
| the publication in the Times was made
in reference to candidate during a POI
litical campaign, and was therefore, priv
legged. Even if the statements published
are proved to be false that would not
presume malice, and malice, proved or
presumed, was a necessary constituent
of criminal libel. The law in such cases,
as well as the facts, must be decided by
the jury. 7
Judge Holt refused to dismiss, but
agreed that the jury should pass upon
both the law and the facts. - -
Addressing the jury, Mr.. Jackson then
assured them that his clients action has
simply been part of a political campaign.
This case was brought only that it
were displayed last Saturday upon all the
fences" he said. "Of course, some one,
in his zeal for Mr.. Rosing and Governor
Lind, did prepare and circulate pam
phlet urging Swedes to vote for Lind.
There is no crime in that; but 1t was not
good patriotism. The defendant denounced
the pamphlet, but not in as ardent Ian
guage as Mr.. Lind has since denounced IT.
Mr.. Lind can hardly call it a crime for
Mr.. tombstone to have the same ideas as
Mr.. Lind has about the matter. y
This astute argument was interrupted
by Attorney Child Of the defense, who
requested Mr.. jackson to confine himself
to the point at issue.
| Thereupon Mr.. Jackson took occasion to
assure the jury how much he esteemed
Mr.. Lind while have every faith and
belief in Mr.. Lind, + join with him in
denouncing such tactics, which. as we will
show have been used in every campaign
In which he has been engaged"
