IRRATIONAL LIBEL
LAWS.

n correspondent OhClS oOhAC
sensible and timely observations
on the absurdity and injustice
of our libel law. The law ought
to be reformed or modified. 1T
is too drastic. 1t affords too
much protection to the rascal
and the scoundrel. There should
of course, be law to protect the
individual against outrage, and
injury by newspapers. A venge-
full, malicious or evil disposed
newspaper should not be permit
ted to misrepresent, injure or as
sault individuals, concerns or cha
racter with impunity. But on
the other hand newspapers should
not so unjustly and unreasonably
restricted in thier utterances as
to make it hazardous for them to
state facts which the public
should know, or to tell the truth
in the interest of the public.
Freedom of the press should not
mean license to deliberately do
wrong but it should be something
more than a mere fiction. Re-
pressive laws untempered by
equity in judicial decisions are
not only a grave injustice to
newspapers but to the public also.
They furnish protection to the e.
vil-doers whose deeds will not bear
the light of day, and tend to af-
ford immunity from criticism to
those guilty of shady transact
tions, the supposedly respectable
person who is whited sepulcher,
and the schemers who seek
through various and, devious
way to nislead, deceive or rob
the public, or to practice fraud
upon a community.
Publicity has wonderfully de-
terrent effect in the matter of
wrong.doing, 1t is as restraining
as the law. and with the law is
society's greatest protection. The
; fear of publicity has kept many a
man from doing wrong and has
prevented many an evil deed.
this powerful agency becomes
less feared by wrong.dOers when
drastic laws place the newspaper
at the mercy of every person
whose motives or methods or pur-
poses are exposed and the public
informed or warned. Such laws
encourage lawyers to bring suits
without basis of justice and with
the view of robbing newspaper
in The name of law for performing
a public service, or, in some cases,
for doing nothing that could
reasonably offend or injure any
body, or for an error followed by
prompt and ample correction. A
law that permits damages where
no real damage has been sustained
or which awards damages to per.
sons who bring suit for the purpose
Of obtaining money from a news.
paper and not for any yindication
of name Of character. is an unjust
and an outrageous law. 1t is
equivalent to placing a heavy PEN
atty on newspapers that are trying
to serve the public. No Russian
press censorship or repressive
laws against the press are much
worse than some of the court de-
eisions in this State, based on
law that in itself is unreasonably
oppressive and unjust to newspa-
pers. There can be no reason.
able defense of such law. and one
does not need to be learned in
the lawD to see that there is little
of Justice or equity in such de-
cisions. If newspapers are to be
thus manacled and shackled, then
freedom of the press is a mere
fintiOn.

BARNEY CREAMERY.

A. G. Kressin the we'll known
creamery man of Barney made
this Office a pleasant call last
Tuesday. Mr.. Kressin stated
that business was fairly good
for this season of the year and
thought that the volume of
business this year would be
much larger than last year,
which y 'sery good. Tha
the creamery is a good thing
for its patrons is too we'll known
to need comment though we
cannot refrain from giving one
instance mentioned by Mr..
Kressin. J. Klosterman, who

and that his check for the first

large. Think of it Mr.. Wheat

"At Risk of His Life" is a
new play written by Mark E.
Swan. It has been one of the
great successes in melodrama
in the east, and is offered this
season by Chase & Lister for
the first time in the west. We
can safely guarantee that it is
the first production of the piece
in your city, as the play has
never been done outside of the
larger eastern cities until this
season. 1t is melodrama
filled with new ideas and novel
situations, the interest begun
ming with the first act and con-
tinuing throughout the &C.

is strong. and the plot original,

JUDGE LAUDER WINS OUT.

JUDGE LAUDER WINS OUT.
The jury in the case of Kar-

for the plaintiff yesterday after
neon in the sum of $2.5OO after
being OF. about an hour. 1t 10
said the first vote was II to
in favor of a 5000 verdict, but
that one juryman held out for
$5Ot and finally the matter was
compromised at $2,5OO.
The arguments were conclud-
ed early yesterday afternoon.
Attorney Townsend for the de-
Tense spoke q couple of hours
yesterday morning, presenting
a strong argument and was
followed by Judge Lauder, who
presented the case for the
plaintiff quite forcibly, conclud-
ing just before adjournment at
noon.. Judge Pollock gave his
charge to the jury after the
convening OF court after dinner
and the jury retired. The
plaintiff sued for $4,000 dam
ages for personal injuries al
legged to have resulted from fall
ing into a stairway in the store
of the defendant. Three days
were required for the trial OF
the action. Judge Lauder and
Colonel Hildreth represented
the plaintiff and Assist. U. =.
Atty. B. D. Townsend the de.
fendant. Friday afternoon
Colonel Hildreth expressed the
opinion to persons in private
that he believed the. verdict
would be $1,000 for the plaintiff,
which proved a close guess,
considering that the suit was
for $4,000. It is possible that
an appeal will be taken.

be q message from Washington
to the effect that the U. S. SEN
ate had appropriated $25, 10000
for a wedding present for Miss
Alice Roosevelt and the Times
proceeded to roast the senate
for thus wasting the peoples
money. The statement was 30
blamed ridiculous that the
Gazette supposed no one would
believe it, but it appears that it
was taken for the truth by a
few people and in order that its
readers may not be misled the
Gazette wishes to contradict
the statement. The facts are
that no such appropriation was
made by the congress- and we
don't suppose any member of
honorable body ever seriously
thot of such thing. Perhaps
some one told the Times editor
or possibly he read of the action
of the senate of the Republic of
Cuba, not of the United States.
The Cuban senate did vote to
allow their president to expend
$25,0OO.OO for a wedding present
for Miss Alice Roosevelt, but
Theodore Roosevelt, president
of the United States, advised
the Cuban government that he
could not allow his daughter to
accept such gift.-Wahpeton
