A special from ST. Louis says there
was great outburst of applause when
John Sharp Williams mentioned the
name Of Grover Cleveland. Calls for
Grover, Grover. drowned the voice of
Williams and he was unable to pro-
coed. Tim Sullivan, secretary of Tam
many, tried to urge along the demon
stration and got into fight with the
sergeant at arms. There was great
tumult and disorder for several min
utos but Sullivan was finally elected
from the hall, and his badge was
stripped from his coat. Williams then
proceeded with his speech and got the
attention of the convention. At the
close Of Williams speech the band
played '.Dixie" and the convention

The freedom Of the press to COM
ment on and criticiSe the official con.
duct Of judges on the bench is always
involved in more or less doubt. Some
editors are at times guilty Of discuss
ing pending cases in a manner that
clearly tends to prejudice the issues
involved. Some judges are so greatly
concerned with their personal dignity
as to regard any discussion from a
point of view that differs with their
own as improper and deserving of pun
ment for contempt.
Nevertheless satisfactory mean be-
tween the two extremes should not be
difficult to establish, and the decision
just handed down by United States
Circuit Judge Pritchard in North
Carolina will be helpful toward that
end. The case before him was that
of Editor Daniels of the Raleigh News
and Observer, who had been fined
81, 900 for contempt by District Judge
Purnell, because the editor had clitici-
sed the courts action in regard to
railroad receivership. Judge Prit-
chard released the editor, and remark
ed in the course of his opinion: "If
judges charged with the administra-
tion of the law are not to be criticised
on account of their official conduct the
liberty of the press is abridged and
the rights of individuals imperiled. |"
1t will freely be admitted by the
vast majority Of editors that the fair
administration of justice through the
established mechanism of the courts
is the great deSideratum. Any COM
ment that will tend to prejudice a
pending cause is greatly to be avoided.
However, after the decision is render
ed the court and its acts become fair
subjects for comment.

FOURTH OF JULY.
Plymouth G Celebrated Nation Anniversary
With an old Fashioned Barbecue,
Grafton. Races. Games, Fireworks
and Noises.

1.-THE "GlOriOuS Fourth" was ap
propriately celebrated in this city.
The crowd was not quite so large as
that of last year, but it was large
enough. The day was partly cloudy.
not extremely hot. but just warm
enough for an ideal Fourth Of July.
All the business houses and most of
the residences on the principal streets
were splendidly decorated and all the
towns in the county were well repre-
Sented as we'll as many Of the towns
and townships of adjoining counties.
judge Beeman of Knox, delivered a
fine Grafton at the court house at 1:30
p. M, but owing to other attractions
and some misunderstanding as to the
time bis audience was not so large as
it should have been.
The ball game in the morning was
one Of the best ever played in this
city resulted In a victory for the Ke-
wanna team by score of three to one,
The score shows that Plymouth did
excellent playing as well as Kewanna.
The game In the afternoon was be-
tween Rochester and Plymouth. The
Rochester team was not fully repre-
sented and the game was very one
sided, being II to o In favor of Ply
mouth.
The greatest attraction vas the
barbecue. 1t was the first OK ever
roasted in Plymouth. and erybody
thought that an OK weighing 204O
pounds could not be successfully
roasted, but Mr.. o. II. Miller demon
strated that be was onto his job and
when the OK was taken out of his bed
Of clay after roasting seventeen hours,
almost all the meat was perfectly
cooked and was very sweet and tender.
The automobile race did not fully
materialize at 11:30 a. m. owing to
the machinery of one of the machines
getting out of order; but as there was
string of automobiles on the street
all day everybody got to see all they
wished of their movements.
There was thrilling dash by the
Plymouth fire companies at 80 p ~.
which attracted the attention and ad-
miration of over 5000 people. The
rapidity with which the ladder was
placed in position and the walls of one
of the highest buildings in town were
scaled while %dter was thrown over
the top of Il, demonstrated to people
of other places the effectiveness of
the Plymouth fire department.
During the day the noise made by
the canes, firecrackers and pistols was
equal to that of a continuous battle
for about sixteen hours.
The ballon ascension just before 6
o'clock, was made by William Rish
and was one of the finest ever seen in
this city. The balloon rose majesti.
caIly to the height of thousand feet
and sailed of south. Mr.. Rish made
the parachute drop when the balloon
was at its greatest height and landed
safely near Oak Hill cemetery.
The display Of fireworks IN the ev-
ening was grandly magnificent and
was witnessed by an immense crowd
from the city and surrounding coun-
try.
The Plymouth, Kewanna and Max
inkuckee bands furnished excellent
music and plenty of 1t during the en-
tire day and everybody went home
pleased declaring that no other city
could beat Plymouth in getting up a
good celebration of the nations ami
versary.
