Fraadom of the Praas.

The battle for a free press in the full modern sense was fought out be- tween 1764 and 1771. beginning with the prosecution of Wilkes for attack Ing Butte in the North Briton and end ing with the successful resistance to the proclamation by which the com mons had forbidden the publication of their debates Six printers who had infringed the proclamation were sum- moned to the bar of the house. Five obeyed, and the messenger of the house was sent to arrest the sixth The lord mayor sent the messenger to prison The house of commons sent the lord mayor to the Tower, but he was released at the next propagation, and the day on which he left the Tower marked the end of the last attempt to silence the press.-New York Ameri- can.

The curious boycott of the press in the Berlin parliament had precedent in the mother of parliaments, the Brit ish house of commons. A writer in Harpers Weekly recalls that the per son involved was no less a celebrity than the late Daniel O'Connen. He condemned the inaccuracy of the par liamentary reports, but he forgot to make allowance for acoustic difficulties and the buzz of intervening conversa- ton. He charged the reporters with the malicious suppression of his speech es, and the gallery then refused to re- port him at all. Dan stormed and thundered in vain. even moving that the ringleaders be brought to the bar of the house. Finally he apologized. and all was well. Lord Lyttleton in 1871 fell foul of the press in the same way, and the late Lord Monteagie had his name omitted from London news paper reports for two years because he said something the reporters did not lfha

Our team couldn't be any surer of not winning if William J. Bryan was its mascot. We would rather have given pint of huckleberries than to have lost the game last Saturday, but the moon wasn't right to win.
