cially by the legal expense OF defend
Ing themselves hundreds Of miles from
the place of publication and against
the tremendous resources OF the Unit
ed States government.
Under this procedure, there is
hardly an American newspaper pro-
prietor who would not be liable to
criminal indictment In Washington II
his paper printed something offensive
To the President. even though the pro-
prietor might have been thousands OF
miles from his Office at the time Of
such publication and know nothing
whatever about It, There Is hardly an
editor or writer or reporter who
would not be similarly liable to in
dictment at the whim of a President.
In addition to this. all of them would
likewise be liable to criminal indlct-
ment.
"Mr. Roosevelt is now abusing his
great power as President TO exploit
his political malice. This libel pro-
ceeding has no other object than to
enable Mr Roosevelt 10 employ the
machinery of the United States gov
ernment to satisfy his personal desire
for revenge
I'VE say this reluctantly, but We
say 1t without qualification. because
it is true.

SALT LAKE AND
STATE NEWS
PERSONAL INJURY SUIT
is NOW BEING TRIED

Salt Lake. Feb. 1S-In Judge Ritch-
les division OF the third district court
Wednesday trial was begun before a
jury Of w. ] Rodigue's big damage
suit against the Union Pacific Rail-
way company to recover $40 $50 dam
ages for personal injuries alleged to
have been sustained in the collision
OF the overland limited with freight
train at siding near Rock Springs.
Wyo., named All Sa. December Z, 1907,
In which several persons were killed.
Rodigue was employed in the diner
attached to the overland limited, and
sets out that he was badly burned
and bruised and permanently crippled.
The company sets up that he had
agreed to release the company from
all reliability for $500. and Rodigue
admits this, but says that he had been
approached by the company's claim
agent and physician while he was
suffering great mental and physical
anguish from his injuries, and there
fore was not competent to attend TO
business properly. The physician, he
alleges. told him then that he was
only slightly injured. and he relied
largely upon this assertion in accept
ing the tender of $500 in payment OF
all claims against the railway COM
pany.
