the Steamer Denver.
Galveston, Feb 23.-Members of the
legislature, their families and others
who came in on the special train from
Austin had an enjoyable trip Sunday.
They were taken on a gulf trip on the
steamer Denver. The trip made was
about twelve miles, going out beyond
the jetties and into the Gulf OF Mexi-
co. The sea was calm. yet a few be-
came seasick.
On the way out the decorated yes

pier, the bulkheads, quarantine sta
lions, Forts San Jacinto and Travis,
site for the new life station and other
points were pointed out and came in

luting vessels We're passed the Denver

esting exhibition by the local life

waves-and they We're chilly. just as
the Denver got abreast of the heroic
little crew the signal man overheard
was sounded on the great vessel and
taken up by Captain Phillips and his
men. The little surf boat came to the
rescue instantly, and thrilling scene
was there witnessed. The man who
cast himself into the waters from the
deck of the Denver was former Capt.
John w. Brooks of the lifesaving SER
vice, and he was speedily rescued from
the billowy deep by .1he men of Uncle
Same's lifesaving station. The man
in the water was unexpected to the
visitors, and they were most apprehen-

THE LIBERTY OF THE PRESS.
In the attitude of the President to-
wards the New York World and the
Indianapolis News the liberty of the
press il menaced.
The principle involved and which
should concern the people seriously is
not wheEher the President, or the Gov
ernment has been libelled, but can the
press Be uauzzled?
It should be conceded that the Presi-
dent, in his official or his personal ca
paeity, is not exempt from criticism,
particu1arly in instances where he has
departed from the dignity of his office
70 assail and damage the good name of
citizen.
Whatever may be the truth involved
n the controversy arising over the
Panama Scandal, there is a penalty for
the libeller, but to say, suggest or init
mate that the President, as an official or
IS an individual, can not be criticised
lesitimately, is ridiculous.
Fortunately, in the Republic, such as
the United States, the citizen is the
eotal Of the President as a sovereign,
and can be held amenable for any in
friction Of the law.
The liberty Of the people must rest
on The liberty Of the press.
