Origen and other early writer's allude

days was adopted in commemoration

as Moses and Elijah, for that length

on the night after the crucifixion, it
was agreed that Easter must depend
upon the phases of the moon and
therefore be a movable feast, and it
was fixed on the first Sunday after the
full moon of the spring equinox. Thus

WILL DEMAND
A SPEEDY TRIAL
American Naval Stores Co.
Says Charges by Grand
Jury Are False and
Outrageous.
Special to The journal.

Savannah, Ga, April 18.-The
American Naval Stores Co. has is,
sued the following announcement:
We appreciate the fact that we
ought not TO argue our case in the
public prints, and we do not propose
to do so. If the indictment, which
will be spread broadcast through the
columns of the newspapers, contained
only charges relevant 10 the alleged
violation of the Sherman antitrust
law, we would say nothing: but when
We are so malinge,i ny malicious and
contemtial5- charges in the Indictment
that reflect upon our good name,
which We shall at the proper time
and in the right place, prove to be
as false, as they are defamatOry and
outrageous, We desire to enter our
indignant and emphatic protest.
What these charges have to do
with the Sherman antitrust law it is
difficult to perceive. although We do
understand fully how they can sub
serve the purpose and animus of
this prosecution.
With a carte blanche 10 the as
sistant district attorney, who it
seems is a legal advisor of the grand
jury, to put before that body only
such witnesses as he saw fit to put,
and with the spirit and purpose of
some of his witnesses, we perhaps
ought not to be surprised if one OF
the specifications of the general
charge had been that we were guilty
of horsewhipping, or bigamy, or arson.
I'VE do not propose to have the
case go over until next November or
next April. We shall insist upon our
constitutional right to a speedy trial
and until such time we hope there
will be a suspension of judgment"
