MuzzIing the Newspapers.

So much dissatisfaction was stirred passing of a -muzzling bill at Harrisburg in the last hours of the session of the legislature that Gov erncr Pennypacker invited the friends and opponents of the measure to at tend a hearing on the subject at the State capitol last Tuesday week. Two hundred newspaper men from all parts of the state were present, and also two attorneys representing the friends of the bill Who these friends were did not appear.
 The facts of the case, as they were elicited at the hearing, are that the bill in question, which puts g. large number of burdensome restrictions upon the newspapers of the state, went through the legislature irregular ly and, as the newspaper men believe, unconstitutionally. The constitution requires that bills shall be read three times on three separate days, but this
 
 separate days. To use common phrase it was railroaded through-by whom has not yet been determined One remarkable feature of the measure is that it makes every news paper inaccuracy actionable. The CT roneous statement need not contain a libel in order to provide a dis gruntled individual with a lawful op- portunity for suing. MT. Charles Emory Smith. formerly postmaster general and now the editor of the Philadelphia Press, dwelt at length on this fault in his address before the governor, and in summing up the ob- jections to the bill said:
 First, the bill is utterly powerless to stop the particular kind of pub lication which it aims at. but it en- compasses legitimate publications with an unlimited network of cmbarrass- ment and vexation. Second. it woull cripple and curtaiI the presentation of the regular and proper news of the day. Third. it would start up a whole swarm of speculative shysters and curb-stone blackmailer3. Fourth. it infrirges the just and constitutional liberty of the press, and would impair that valuable protection for public morals and public rights which is found in the searchlight of publicity. Fifth, it is special legisla- tion in undertaking to make a law for newspapers while excepting the weekly newspapers from it's operations. Sixth, to fasten the principals responsibility upon the agent. where the agent not only does not commit the offense but where he has not even the power to

A BRIEF PROCLAMATION.

Governor Bachelder's proclamation appointing Thursday, April 23, as a day of fasting and prayer in New Hamp- shire is said to be the briefes: ever is sued by governor of the Granite state. II recommend" he says. that the day be observed in d spirit of devotion; that our people abstain from their usual lahors and in their customary places of worship. in the pure atmosphere of Gods first temples and in the family circle, engage in such exercise as will contribute to their spiritual welfare, civic virtues and the uplifting of hu- manity."

There is no reason why every man nominated at the republican city con- vention should not be elected. It is conceded even by the democrats that it is the strongest ticket ever put into the field by the republicans. Most of the members of it have been tried in the positions to which they now aspire Among them is Marshal Kinney, who it is generally agreed is one of the best if not the very best, cleanest and most fearless officers that ever held that po- sition. Phoenix is not just now in the temper for turning down tried ana faithful servants.

The annihilation of . British com mand in East Africa is another re- hinder that the little wars have their Tragic inydents. 'Ehe worst recent Sasa in American exterience differed essen tfally from this Somaliland one. Only g. single company was involved, and the case was one of pure Malay treachery. The men were at their breakfast with out thought of peril, when supposedly friendly natives made a sudden ari murderous attack on them. No suc;l state of facts presents itself in the pres ent instance. Colonel Plunkett and his command were on the march in a hos tile country, known to be swarminS with armed enemies. Evidenly they were surrounded, overpowered and de- stroyed by sheer weight of numbers.

NORTH AND SOUTH EQUALLY
 PATRIOTIC

When Robert E. Lee, the great Con federate soldier, was at West Point. where he was graduated in 1929. the right of the states to secede was part
 of the constitutional doctrine taught
 at the academy. This interesting fact, as noted in the Baltimore Sun. is brought out in a fcotnote to the printed copy of the speech delivered at Charles
 ton last winter by Charles Francis Ad- ans. on the "Constitutional Ethics of Secession" The text book from which Lee learned his constitutional law taught specifically that ''the states
 may wholly withdraw from the union,' and that ''the secession of a state from the union depends on the will Of the people of such state" As a matter CT fact as Colonel Watterson pointed our in a recent address. there is just as much justification for secession in the constitution now as there was before the civil war was fought to decide whether the alleged right could be maintained: the real issue of that war has never been written into the con- stitution. But it was not necessary that it should be. The question was settled for all time ct AppomattoX. What the north and south divided on was the preservation of the union. not the constitutional justification for secession. The former was by far the greater question. But. after all the matter is chiefly interesting in its bear ing upon the argument as to whether or not Robert F. Leo was a traitor. and therefore entitled or not entitled t0 have his statue placed in Statuary hail at Washington. Surely by this time the country is willing to admit that he fought for the right as he saw it. hon cstly believing that his first allegiance was due to his state.-Providcnca Journal.

COFFEE CHEWING HABIT.

The coffee chewing habit is increas- ing alarmingly-. It is easily contracted because of the pleasant taste of the fresh-roasted berries. and the exhilara- ton from the active principles of coffee being similar to that from the alcohol in beer and whislley. inc habit is hard to break. The effects of coiiee-ea tina are much more marked than those from tobacco using. It wrecks the nerves yellows the skin and destroys the ap- petite.

CHASED A GANG
OF PETTY THIEVES
SIX BOYS FOUND STEALING IN
REAR OF EMMELUTHs STORE
LAST EVENING.

A gang Of petty plferers has been
operating about the city for some days.
Last night they were discovered In the
rear of John Emmeluth's store on King
street There were six in the crowd.
All of them carried gunny sacks in
which had been placed various articles
that had probably been stolen from
various places about the business Sec
ton of the city. The crowd were en-
gagged at that time in stealing pieces of
brass and other articles belonging to
the Emmeluth store.
A clerk chased after the crowd. All
of them took to their heels. Manuel
Tlchera, a Portuguese, was captured by
the clerk. The youth was before
Judge Lindsay tlXs morning to answer
to charge of larceny in the second
decree. The youth said that he had
stolen only little piece of brass, the
big pieces had been stolen by the other
boys. 1nasmuch as the defendant was
the largest one in the crowd, the court
evidently thought a severe sentence
might deter other members from
further depredations. Manuel was
committed to the reform school during
his minority. He is ~ years of age.
The charges of burglary against
Fischer, f. Buckley and Robert MUIR

glary of the Waikiki saloon some time
